Top rated Wrightsville Beach dog boarders

“Super sweet! Sent pictures & regular updates of our pupper. Administered medications & kept us in the loop on when our dog ate (bc she has super bad anxiety). Would definitely recommend!!”


“Allie was great. She was flexible and allowed me to add an extra night. Lots of good pics and my pup was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I think he had a fun time with new friends! Will definitely use her again when I’m in the area. Highly recommend 👍”


“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter than Maggie. I thought I would be nervous leaving my dog in the care of a stranger but when meeting Maggie I could tell my dog Sadie would be well cared for while I was on vacation. With a nice, shaded backyard and a friendly relaxed vibe it is the perfect vacation for a dog. She got lots of walks and attention too. I highly recommend Maggie if you are looking to board your dog.”


“Julia was amazing with my babies, she spoiled them and kept me updated through text messages and pictures. My dogs looked so happy in every single picture she sent to me and had so much fun playing with other pups. I highly recommend Julia, she’s awesome!”


“Donna and Calvin took wonderful care of our pups. They were well-attended to, had lots of walks and activity and received a lot of caring attention. They can’t wait to come back to visit again!”


“Kim was wonderful and loving with my little dog. In the video she sent he looked quite relaxed and at home playing with toys or snuggling on the couch. Her family and beautiful large dog were all terrific with him. Thanks, Kim!”


“Katelyn is amazing! She took incredible care of my big pittie girl and provided adorable, communicative updates. It was clear my dog had a great time with her. Would highly recommend her to anyone in the Wilmington area! :)”


“Haley is so wonderful and took great care of Charlie! Appreciate her flexibility with logistics and the sweet updates she sent of Charlie loving life with her new little friend 💛”


“Helena was a wonderful dog sitter for my 9 year old dog Moose. She was very accommodating when I needed to adjust the drop off and pick up times, and took the time to get to know Moose before boarding him. I appreciated that she only boards one dog at a time, which allowed her to give Moose individualized care and attention. Throughout the stay, Helena sent me regular photo updates and captions about their activities. When I picked Moose up, he seemed happy and tired out from all the fun he had. She was attentive to Moose and ensured he was comfortable throughout his stay. Helena frequently commented on what a well-behaved and great dog Moose is. I would absolutely trust Helena to care for Moose again in the future.”



“We had a great experience with Taylor and his family. They shared photos and updates while we were away and our pup even made some new friends while he was there. Would absolutely recommend!”


“We left our German Shepherd with Mandy for a week. She is an anxious and a reactive dog who is unsure of strangers. Mandy managed her so well that when we picked her up, we haven’t seen any signs of stress. Mandy having a fenced back yard was also an excellent benefit that our dog got to go out as much as she wanted. She enjoyed the week away with Mandy. You can leave your pets under Mandy ‘s care without hesitation.”


“Robert did a fantastic job taking care of our dog frankie! I can highly recommend him for anyone looking for competent and empathetic care for their pet in Wilmington!!”


“Jay is amazing! He hosted our attention-needing, couch-loving golden retriever for a week — and to say our pup settled in is an understatement. Every photo Jay sent had us laughing out loud because it was obvious Gus thought he owned the house. Jay not only provided Gus with a loving home, he also gave him good walks while keeping us updated on all the happenings. We absolutely recommend Jay if you’re in the Wrightsville/Carolina Beach area and looking for a great and comfortable home for your pets!”


“Took care of my crazy dog. No problems at all, highly recommend.”


“Hazel and Lily had an absolute blast and Jonathan and his partner were able to help us have nice night out for New Year’s - thank you thank you, thank you!!”


“Tasha was awesome and very accommodating, took our pupper in on very short notice! We received daily updates and it was a huge relief. Anytime we ever need a puppy sitter, we will definitely look to Tasha for her help.”


“Olivia was very attentive to our needs for Leila. She shared some great videos with us which made us feel relaxed & happy that our girl was well taken care of.”



“Jennifer did a great job with our two pomeranians. This was our first time leaving them with someone who was not family. Jennifer kept us updated and always responded to texts in a prompt timely manner. We definitely would consider using Jennifer in the future and encourage others to do so as well :)”


“I had the pleasure of using Raquel's dog boarding service, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience! From the moment we dropped off our dog, we felt at ease knowing she would be in such caring and capable hands. Raquel was incredibly attentive, sending us updates and photos throughout our dog's stay, which really put our minds at rest. Her home is welcoming, with plenty of space for dogs to play and relax, including a large fenced-in yard that’s absolutely beautiful. Our dog had so much fun running and playing with Raquel's two I'm two boys. She came home happy, healthy, and well-cared-for, and we could tell she had a great time. I highly recommend Raquel's dog boarding service to anyone looking for a safe, loving environment for their pets!”


“Obi was at another rover, I didn’t feel comfortable leaving him there so I looked for a sitter last minute. They responded immediately and took a weight off my shoulders. I appreciate them being in constant communication and very understanding of my situation. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who is looking for sitters in the Wilmington area.”
