Dog Boarding in Rutherfordton, NC

“Annie is fantastic and really took amazing care of our dog. She accommodated our dog's size (150+ pounds), fear of floors, and other eccentricities making it easy for us to know that our dog has a second home.”

“Once again, Holly was wonderful with my dogs. I know they had a wonderful time when they were there, she sent me some really great pictures and always gave updates on how things were going. They got along great with her pets. She is such a wonderful sitter!”

“Candy and her husband are great sitters and always make Porkchop feel right at home.”

“Mally is wonderful with pets. She is loving towards them and attentive. Mally is very dependable and accountable. What’s awesome is how much she loves animals. I would use Mally for all my pet needs, and trust her to care for my babies 🐾”

About: I've had personal experience by having at least one cat since I was about 10 years old. The ages have ranged from newborns to elderly cats. Several of the kitties I've had have given birth and I've helped with comfort and monitoring. One was elderly and required medication and monitoring. At the moment, I own two cats that are FIV positive and have required medication for semi-frequent illness. They also need frequent vet visits to monitor their health. They're a handful but totally worth it!! Love them to bits. Lastly, I'm not currently enrolled (nor did I finish) but I did take several college classes for veterinarian technician and learned technical information. I'm available Mon-Sun for boarding and doggie day are at any hour. I'm not a morning person so I work well with clients that are the same or have evening/nights jobs/classes. I typically offer doggy day care or boarding. Depending on what you need for your babies I can see what can be done though. Please don't be afraid to ask. I wouldn't be able to keep cats at my home because of my FIV positive cats. I want everyone to be safe and have no risks involved. Dogs are okay though as it doesn't transfer from cats to dogs! I am confident I can give medication and safely restrain your pet. I prefer to not watch large dogs. All cats, small and medium dogs are preferred. I'm comfortable crating, feeding, leashed walks, bathing, brushing, and clipping nails.

“Jacop was an amazing for our first boarding experience. Daily updates with photos. Took Baer for walks on the river and socializing with other people and dogs. 10/10 would recommend. He’ll be first on our list for future boarding.”

“She is amazing with dogs.You can tell she genuinely cares and puts her heart into these animals. Your dog will be in excellent care with her. 10/10”

“Gwen is great! She’s responsible, asks for a reasonable rate, and when I had to tack on an extra day due to my chaotic schedule, she was flexible and understanding. My cats have to be fed separately due to dietary differences, and she was very accommodating. I will definitely use Gwen again to watch Nero and Scuttle- highly recommend.”

“As always, Martha took great care of our senior dog and sent us pictures everyday. We really appreciate her treating Roxy like part of her family!”

“I have only good things to say about Alison. I am confident of her knowledge and ability to connect with animals I was comfortable leaving my dog with her and my dog seemed comfortable with Alison since she went with Alison without a look back. Alison kept me updated with messages and pictures daily. My dog was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. I will absolutely use her services again.”

“I LOVE Micheal! She makes my life so much less stressful just knowing my fur babies are well cared for while I am working. And when I am on a 5 day stretch in the ER, less stressful is welcome! Thanks Micheal!”

“Lindsey was just the best! We boarded our dog Josie and cat Dylan for over a week and they both felt completely at ease. She made them very comfortable and kept us updated with lots of pictures. I would recommend her highly!!! Thank you so much!!!”

“Sharon did a great job with my pup and he had a great time. I can’t wait to go out of town again so Max can go back. She loves her guests and takes great care of them.”

“I completely trust Amanda with my pups! She understands their needs and I love knowing that she will take care of them with as much love and care as I do. This includes meds, special diets, walks and of course lots of love and snuggles! I definitely recommend and appreciate Amanda.”

“Tammy was wonderful! She was flexible with pick up/drop off times and made my pup a part of her family for the weekend. She gave me updates on how he was doing and was always responsive to messages. I would highly recommend her to others and would use her services again!”

“Thank you for amazing pupdates and communication. This family loves your dogs just like their own. Highly recommend and can’t wait to use them again! 💕”

“Enjoyed very much working with Carrie & Kurt J. I met them both and found them to be personable and obvious dog lovers! They have several pets of their own so we had a nice meet and greet to confirm that Sadie would be a comfortable fit. They live near my neighborhood which made the handoff and pickup quick and easy. Their fenced back yard made for a secure environment, and Sadie apparently 'liked' that feature. I received periodic photos and updates about how Sadie's stay was progressing. In the many Rover stays that Sadie has had, this was the first in which she didn't appear quite ready to home, spending just a few extra moments to say 'goodbye' to Carrie. Thank you so much Carrie & Kurt, I will be calling again.”

“Misheal took great care of our senior dog and keep us updated on how she was doing. Roxy definitely got spoiled while we were away and made good friends with their dog Cookie.”

“Salva took wonderful care of our dog, Chalupa. She sent daily updates with pictures of our pup being well-loved. We would definitely use Salva again and trust her with our pets!”

“Brittany is EXACTLY what my senior dog needed. She met all his needs plus some and understood all his quirks. Even gave him a bath with a bonus bandana before pickup ?. She was able to feed him medicine and carry him up/down stairs. Very accomadable to providing him comfort with his multiple beds, blankets and pillows. Her family and children reacted well and she sent plenty of updates, pictures and videos to make me feel at ease. I have full confidence that any pet will feel welcome in her cozy log cabin home sitting on a couple acres with plenty of grass area for them to run and play. Brittany was able to provide constant supervision for my dementia boy who panics when alone. He had no anxiety while with her and didn't even care that I left, he felt right at home with Brittany. So glad she was available and local to home, it was a yuge relief!!”
