Dog Boarding in Franklin

“Amy was AMAZING! We needed to board our 2-year old 75lb boy within hours notice as we were leaving town. She responded immediately, we talked on the phone, and Kalix was comfortable in her home within a half hour. She sent multiple photos and updates, as well as videos and let us know how he was doing. She has a pick up/drop off room towards the front side of her home and it’s such a perfect little doggy day care welcome room complete with dog bed, rug, and room for our crate! I was so happy to hear that Kalix got to sleep in bed with one of her kiddos, as he always sleeps in our bed at home, as he is family more than a pet ? ? Outstanding and I have no intention of searching for another sitter or drop in if Amy is available. We were even 3 hours later than I had wanted to arrive to pick him up next day, as a large storm was sweeping the area. She had no problem and just wanted us to drive safe and that he would be there for us when we got home. Wonderful wonderful wonderful. I can’t rave enough.”

“Griffin seemed to have a great time and was well taken care of! They were great with updates, pictures, and general communication. I would be very comfortable leaving our pup with them again and would confidently recommend them to other people!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs/ cats my entire life. The last year I have been working in Vet Medicine and have experience with many types of dogs/cats in various situations. My goal is to provide you with peace of mine that your fur baby is properly cared for & loved while you are away. Caring for animals is my passion! 🐾❤️ I currently work at an animal hospital and have experience with MANY types of animals. I have an hr lunch daily that I will be available to come home and check in on everyone and allow potty breaks. I am usually off most of the weekend so will be home with them most of that time. I do prefer a meet and greet with me and your pet before the drop off. I have dog lot fencing put up in multiple spots of my yard, with plenty more that could go up as well depending on how many stays. Dogs do not intermingle outside of families, other than through the fences. I do have 3 Pitts, who have their own outside lot and wouldn’t be around your pets. I would do crates/outside lots for all pets. They would get 4+ potty breaks throughout the day. I work full time but get a lunch break daily from 1p-2p, which I am able to come home for. I have a catio inside for cats with plans to expand that to accommodate more at a time. They also do not intermingle outside of families. If you have any questions or special requests, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to accommodate where I can.

“Kary was amazing!!! I have a dog that doesn't like many people and he LOVED Kary! She took so many pictures and videos too! Will never use anyone else again! ❤️”

“James was friendly and helpful. He sent us pictures of our dogs and was very responsive to all our questions/phone calls. We hope to board our dogs with him again. Highly recommend !!”

“Such a great dog boarding experience! Not only does Michelle live in my building (super convenient) but she also did a fantastic job watching them! They are home happy and healthy. They enjoyed playing with the other dogs and she kept us updated along the way with lots of pictures and videos - couldn’t have asked for anything better! Thank you Michelle! Will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Amanda took great care of our little guy while we did some overnight hiking in the GSMNP! She is very conveniently located for many of the local attractions and we will be contacting her for some doggy daycare or overnight stays next time we are in the WNC mountains so Willie will enjoy his vacation as well in great company!”

“Heather and her son were great! They kept us updated and based on the pictures, our dogs settled right in and made themselves at home ? We will definitely be back. Thank you Heather!”

“Cindy S is a locally known business owner of Habicat Cafe in Clayton. She works hand-in-hand with our local animal shelter on a daily basis. She has decades of experience that includes pet sitting for others. Her schedule allows her the flexibility to offer in-home care for those not comfortable with kenneling their fur babies. As mom to four dogs & five cats, I’d welcome her in my home. I’m also perfectly comfortable in referring her to my business clients.”

“Stacey was amazing. Our dog had a great time. She communicated so well with us and sent regular photos. We vacation some in the area and would gladly have Stacey keep our dog another time. Thanks, Stacey!”

“Licia and Pete are a sweet couple that you can feel comfortable leaving your dog with. They have a nice, small fenced area for my Mogey to roam, as many walks with Pete as he wants, and pettings galore from Licia but his favorite thing was to hang on their back deck. We have been looking for someone as a permanent sitter solution and will be using them again.”

“Brittany and David did a wonderful job taking care of my dog. I felt very confident leaving my dog in their care. He got plenty of exercise and was very comfortable at their home! I would recommend them to anyone!”

“I would totally trust Scott with my dogs. He has shown over the years that he is a loving and compassionate pet owner. Big ups to Scott!”

“Very nice and flexible with my schedule for drop off and pick up. Took my dogs to the dog park and played with them. Dogs seemed very happy. Would definitely have Robin watch them again. Thanks, Robin!”

“She's amazing so loving and thoughtful.as a pet owner and traveler she understands and appreciates having. Someone trustworthy to watch over her own pets. she does a fantastic job and will not disappoint!”

“Stella is a sweet and endearing individual. She is wonderful with all my Furbabies both cats and dogs. Stella understands the importance of their schedules and dietary requirements. She enjoys interacting and playing with my pets and I can tell they really like her. We will use Stella again and recommend her to our friends!! 🐾”

About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do 💔 I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been petting a long time but over the passed couple of years it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I decided to try this app out to put myself out there even more! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Trillium, Cullowhee, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats 🐱 I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I have a fenced in yard but I still walk dogs around my neighborhood as well. I treat them like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.
