“Amy was very accommodating with pickup & drop off times for Penny, making me feel extremely comfortable leaving my pup in her care for multiple days. Penny was always exited to see Amy & her family when dropping off & that’s all I really needed to know. She’ll be my go to in the future when visiting the area & I would highly recommend her services if you’re hiking in the smokies & need doggy day care.”

“Buddy was so happy after staying the day with James and family. He wasn't anxious at all, just calm and happy. He came home a took a long nap. He didn't seem to mind being away from home. Will definitely use James' severices again.”

“Rosie & James have a dream yard for dogs to play in. We are so thankful they were able to board our fur babies at a last minutes notice on a Sunday. Cooper & Cody we’re very happy when we left them and appeared very happy & comfortable in the picture updates we received while they were taken care of at this loving families home. Would definitely book through them again should we be in the area. Thanks again Rosie & James. Take care and hope to see you all soon in the near future ?❤️?”

“Amanda was perfect in every way and was able to accommodate our last minute plans. Mochie has a blast and will be back! Super convenient location and nice environment for dogs. Thanks Amanda”

“Brian was great to work with! He made drop off and pick up very easy and it was obvious he has a gift with dogs. Our dog felt immediately at ease with him. We would drop Maddie again with him in a heartbeat!”

“We were visiting the Hayesville area on vacation with our dog and needed a doggie daycare. Heather and her son took great care of our dog while we were off rafting for the day. Will use them again when in town again.”

“Danita was amazing!! She kept my puppy all day while we went to Dollywood. She sent lots of updates, photos, and videos, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. We will definitely use Danita again if we are in the area!!”

“Zeus and Charlie LOVED THEIR LITTLE FAMILY! I mean LOVED them, and so did we! There is more than just Kary! There’s her goofy, outgoing, kind spirited animals. Her family the surrounds the property! They welcome everyone with open arms, and are welcoming to all new comers, we made new friends ourselves, and had great conversations 😂😁This was my first time having a dog sitter, and I would so book with Kary 1000% again. Thank you for allowing the boys to come and hang out for the day, it was well deserved and needed. They slept the whole way home and all night PEACEFULLY! 🙏❤️ If you are traveling from out of town like we were, and need someone to look after your babies? KARY! Is the way to go! That property is HUGE! I mean HUGE! Your dogs will enjoy themselves and forget the separation anxiety they have being away from you! Trust this woman! She’s the best.”

“Summer was great! I needed care for my dog for just one day while I was in town for a long weekend. Summer was so easy to communicate with. She was very responsive. She took great care of my small dog. If I'm ever back in town, I would definitely use her again!”

“Our first time using Rover and what a positive experience. Pamela took awesome care of our two whippets. Highly recommend booking with Pamela! We will book with Rover again.”

About: I am NAPPS Certified, and dog and cat first aid and CPR certified. I take my four legged guests well-being very serious, and provide a home environment with love, exercise, playtime, and individualized attention. Your dog is part of my family and treated like my own! My house is a cage/crate free environment and dogs are welcome in every room. I have beds set up in all rooms but I often find my visitors on the couch. I do not crate dogs unless requested by the owner and the dog brings his crate with him. Some dogs feel more comfortable sleeping in their crate from home and it is part of their routine. I am experienced with administering medicine and caring for special needs and aging dogs. I have experience with dogs suffering from separation anxiety and go out of my way to make them feel comfortable, calm and secure. A typical day includes supervised playtime and a 3-5 mile walk. All dogs receive a bath as needed and I will continue any basic training and potty training while the dogs are staying with me. I will never leave your dog unsupervised in my backyard or let him/her off leash during our walks. Your dog’s safety, health and well-being are my top priority. I understand that leaving your dog to enjoy a vacation can be stressful; I provide daily updates with pictures or videos and do not mind phone calls to ease the pet parents mind. We love and welcome all dogs, from couch potatoes to rambunctious puppies, as long as they are not aggressive, and do not try eating our cat! I'm currently home full time and my schedule is flexible. I usually walk 3 times a day but can accommodate extra walks or potty breaks. I start by building trust with my new dog or cat and use positive reinforcement. I focus on fun and making my four-legged guest happy and enjoy their stay. I follow the instructions provided by the pet parents to maintain their regular routine and make their stay more comfortable and enjoyable.

“Kailey was an excellent sitter! Our dogs got along and had a great time. She and her son were very sweet and I would book her again to care for Athena.”
