Dog Boarding Valdese

“Myra did a great job taking care of my blind and mostly deaf elderly dog! We had to leave my 15 1/2 year old Westie for 8 days, which I was really stressed out about. Myra kept her in her home and took care of her every need. My dog was happy and healthy when we got home. I would definitely use Myra again.”

“They were so good to us by keeping Pugsley on short notice. Sent us pics and videos of Pugsley playing and having a great time. Felt at ease with them watching our spoiled baby.”

Dawn G.

“Abby really enjoyed her time with Susan and her family and I felt completely comfortable that she was well taken care of. From the pictures and the videos we received it was clear Abby was getting the love and exercise she needs. Susan’s girls were so friendly and showered Abby with love and attention from the initial meet and greet. I would definitely ask Susan to sit for Abby in the future.”

“Could not recommended Laura enough! She did an amazing job with Ebeneezer and even though we were worried about his anxiety…he felt right at home with her! She constantly provided updates and pictures to let us know how he was doing. Plus she responded quickly to any texts we sent! Would definitely use her services again in the future 💜”

Jane D.

“Would definitely recommend Bethany to watch your fur baby! Miss Nova had a blast and my man heart was happy with the multiple pictures, videos and updates! I will definitely book with her for our next getaway!”

“Sparky really enjoyed his stay and we felt so assured that he was safe and having a great time. He looked like he was having so much fun in all the pictures that we were worried he wouldn’t want to come home!!”

About: I have had, rescued, and taken care of a wide variety of dogs from smaller malti-poos to a Dane who had been living on the street, was skin and bones, and ended up 188 lbs. Currently I have Pippa, a 7-year-old Labrador who is allergic to chicken, so I make part of her food. I am home most of the time, except when I host overly-complex board games at the Hickory Library or the Highland Rec Center -- and those sessions are at most 3 hours long. I am home most days, except when I am hosting 3-hour board games at the local library and rec center. Otherwise, I take care of our house and rental properties. I have a large fenced yard -- especially-so since my house sits along North Center Street. I also use carabiners to make sure that gates are locked.

“Natalie is absolutely amazing!! We originally booked for a specific day, but I had a last-minute family emergency. She accommodated our dog, Rosie, immediately and adjusted the booking with zero issues. Having that extra day to sort things out with my family without stressing was a lifesaver. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her. Highly recommended, and thank you again!”

“Kathleen was absolutely amazing with Hulk. She was kind and caring, and most importantly, Hulk came home feeling happy and relaxed. He felt at home with Kathleen! We will definitely book with her again.”

“Jenny was great! She took Petey the Pug in on short notice and was very responsive. Constant photo updates and when I came to pick him up he almost didn’t want to leave. Highly recommended Jenny”

Patrick B.

“Felt very at ease leaving my pups in her care!”

Farrah P.

“Sherrie was awesome. She has a huge back yard and is very nice and personable. She sent pictures of Opie and kept me updated on how she was doing. It is abt a 40 minute drive but very much worth it. We will definitely be using her again”

Connie B.

“Dawn was amazing! She welcomed our two dogs into her home, allowing them space to become comfortable. Her dog was sweet and was patient with ours. She accommodated them with multiple potty breaks throughout the day and let them enjoy couch snuggles. We would recommend her anytime!”

Caleb L.

“Ginia is an absolute pleasure to work with. She’s very accommodating and we feel very grateful to have her taking care of our pup when we’re away.”

Alena S.

“Flower enjoyed her weekend with Donald! She was well taken care of and loved while we were gone. Drop off and pick-up were easy! Donald also sent several pictures of Flower while in his care and was easy to get in touch with while we were gone. We appreciated his care of Flower and will definitely use his services in the future!”

“Jill has the perfect home away from home for my dog!! He had a great time there and was given excellent care and really seemed to enjoy hanging out with Opal. Jill is very loving and caring and has a lot of experience with dogs (actually with all kinds of creatures). Very happy I found this place..”

Sandra M.

“Amy was so great for our hyper beagle while we out of town on vacation! Quick responding and keep up to date information and photo. She is very friendly and welcoming!”

About: Picture this: you love your working breed dog... but they can be a boarder's nightmare. Does it make you nervous that they won't get enough stimulation while you're away? You can rest assured dogs with me will get 2-3 miles of trails a day along with 2+ hours (more on weekends!) of supervised play time with an equally energetic husky. Along with structured crate time to decompress. I've dealt with the worst of leash pullers and have trained my own dogs with high expectations of good behavior. You don't have to worry about your pup loosing manners or reverting to bad behaviors while you're away! I can reinforce proper training while he/she enjoys vacation at a beautiful hideaway with miles of private woods, right on the lake for some water play when it's hot! Your pet's schedule: 7-9am: breakfast! 1-2 miles of trails 9-12pm: crate time with options of mental stimulation toys and food toys 12-1pm: potty break and inside or outside supervised play time with my dog 1-5pm: crate time 5pm: dinner time and evening walks 6pm-bedtime: supervised time around the house, options to interact with other pets, myself, household members. Bedtime: crate or bed if they prefer Note: this is based on my regular daily work schedule for weekdays and weekends. Some flexibility on time frames, excersize amounts, etc are possible. Just ask and let's see if can work something out! I have a high focus on making sure every animal gets adequate amounts of physical and mental stimulation. If your dog has needs outside of what I have listed, let's have a conversation! Crating is required while I or my husband is not in the house. Your dog will be crated in a low stimulation environment away from other animals for proper decompression time. And will never be longer than 4 hours during the day.

“Best dog sitter we've ever had. Our dog seemed to love all the other animals and Tanya gave our dog Bummer extra attention. Bummer may have found a second home. Thank you so much!”
