Dog Boarding in Rutherfordton, NC

“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!”

“So with our dogs, they actually seem disappointed when Holly stops taking care of them, wouldn't trust anyone more than her with her animals for the last three years she is been our go to person for taking care of our German Shepherd and Burna doodle”

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

“George and Gail were so great to Hazel! They even made her homemade dog treats❤️ I felt very comfortable leaving her and will definitely use them again!”

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.

“Nechelle was an incredible help when our older dane was recovering from a case of happy tail. Without her loving attentions our Miley would have likely lost the majority of her tail, as opposed to the minor scarring on just the tip. Her love for our animals was exceptional. Two thumbs up”

“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”

“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!!”

“Mishael and her family were amazing caretakers of our little guy - a chihuahua mix. I was nervous to board him because it was NYE and we were visiting from out of town however she matched the glowing reviews from other clients and quickly put us at ease. I forgot his food of all things and she dipped into her supply. When he cried at night they allowed him to sleep with a family member. They made it look easy with kids and dogs!! I’m so grateful we found them. Thank you!!”

About: I’ve taken in a senior dog who lost her family in 2020. She was frightened the first couple days, but grew to love our family and live a long happy life. We’ve trained puppies and even managed our protective blue healer back during our farm days. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to work around your dogs needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet’s needs are being met. We have two playful, friendly dogs and access to a fun dog park. Think of it as a mountain retreat for your dog with friends.

“Martha is great with our baby girl. She sent regular updates with photos multiple times daily. We can tell she cares and that our dog loves her. Our dog is a very picky eater and Martha went out of her way to entice her to eat. We trust Martha and have the peace of mind that she takes very good care of our baby.”

“Lindsey is the best. Our dog jumps out of the car and runs right up to Lindsey’s front door. It’s great knowing she is happy and feels at home while we are away.”

“Sharon was so great with our two dogs! She sent pictures while we were away which always helps ease my mind and I’m always very appreciative for them. Her entire house is fenced in making it a dog paradise- plenty of room to run and play! She is very clearly a dog lover and makes sure they feel loved and comfortable!”

“Alison sent lots of pictures of Bella and made me feel very comfortable. Bella had just had a cyst removed from her front leg and Alison also provided the needed medication and quiet time for her to recover!”

“Tammy could not have done a better job! I had never left my cat to go on a trip before, but Tammy's experience with cats led me to leave Charlie with her. Although he took a few days to warm up, Tammy completely understood and did not give up on him. Also, she sent me pictures and updated me almost every day that I was gone so I could check up on Charlie; this was especially appreciated since I was so nervous to leave him with a sitter. I would definitely recommend Tammy!!”

“Miriam and Oliver were fantastic with Mufasa and his first time staying with someone other than us. Miriam updated us regularly and sent pictures which made us feel so good. Definitely will be bringing Mufasa back to her even if she’s a little out of the way, if she’s available that’s where he’ll go! Highly recommend going with Miriam and Oliver!”

“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!”

“Courtney is so amazing!! She went over a beyond just her job of watching my dog. She made Dolly feel like home. Communication was great. Felt like I had a family member or best friend watching my fur baby!”
