Dog Boarding in Banner Elk

Jimena was wonderful with our little westie. The first evening and night, there was an awful thunderstorm. Our pup is really afraid of lightning. Jimena did everything to make Jazz comfortable. We are so grateful to her. She has an incredible place for dogs (pets). We couldn’t be happier with what she did for our puppy. All the dogs look happy and she relates to them as « my » dogs what is the best thing we could hope from her. Thank you, Jimena. We are very happy.

Heather was great! She was super friendly and kept in touch about our 4 dogs. They came back to us happy and well cared for! We will definitely use her again when the need arises!

Jill was great with our baby Steele. She was very accommodating, allowing us to pick him up on Christmas Day when we returned from out of town. She sent us pics and updates daily. I will definitely be using her services again.

Great experience—communication before and during Jeter’s stay with Chesnut was fantastic. She really went above and beyond to make sure that Jeter had everything he needed. Highly recommend her.

Carola was great! She gave our Clementine lots of love and attention. She was great at communicating and sent pictures. We will definitely use her again!

This was our first time using Rover and it was a great success. We left Mya for 2 weeks with Lisa while we were in Italy. She sent several pictures of Mya while we were gone and let us know how well she was doing. When we picked her up she was clean and happy. We will certainly rely on Lisa in the future.

Fran was the most wonderful dog sitter. I’m very nervous about leaving my little dog Beau behind because he’s a bit shy and because I miss him so much. He genuinely enjoyed his time with Fran, and I loved the updates she sent. He clearly felt very at home with Fran and Kevin, and I feel more comfortable taking trips now.

Sam and Erica were amazing! They were incredibly responsive and communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates. Moose had such a fun week with them and their pup. Would absolutely recommend them with highest compliments!

Amanda and her family are a sweet family. We felt great leaving our 2 fur babies overnight in Amanda's care. Unfortunately, one of dogs bit her dog. Amanda was polite as she explained the situation. We were surprised and felt terrible. No medical attention for her dog was needed. As pet owners, we all understand that this can happen....even if it has never happened before. We won't be able to use Amanda again, BUT we still recommend her because her home, yard and family are a wonderful consideration for other pets to receive great care. ?

I decided to board with Laura because my dog was very comfortable in her home and with her specifically from the moment she opened the door at our meet and greet. She was the 2nd sitter we had visited and he was most definitely NOT comfortable with the first. Chase is a wise pupper. He had a wonderful time and was well cared for. I will be leaving him with Laura the next time I travel!

Katy is amazing. 20 out of 10 recommend! She was so responsive and quick to reply and help out with a relatively last minute dog sit. My 1 year old pup is pretty high energy and hasn’t been around a ton of other people and dogs. This was her first time staying with a sitter. Katy is obviously so experienced and relaxed around dogs. Drop off and pickup was seamless. She had great communication the from the first contact through the entire sit. She kept me in the loop about Waffles adjustment and shared pictures. I’m so grateful to find Katy and almost hesitate to leave a good review because I want to keep her all to myself! Thanks so much Katy! You’re the BEST!

Kathy was so welcoming to Ziggy and made him feel at home. She provided updates and photos twice a day and was very accomodating to our schedule. Great family atmosphere!

This was our first time boarding with Melissa. We have a mastiff & a frenchie. She was very accommodating to time requests. She provided a lot of reassurance since she could tell I was nervous about leaving the pups. She sent pictures, & gave frequent updates through text. She was very fast to respond to all our messages & she was happy to answer any question. We wanted to find an alternative to a local kennel here in Boone. So we had to drive 40 minutes to board with Melissa, but we chose to because of her raving reviews on Rover. The dogs seemed very happy when I picked them up & liked they had a lot of fun during their stay. She has a fenced in yard & Im sure the dogs loved that. I will definitely be boarding with her again & look forward to seeing how the dogs react when we go back.

Jazzy was amazing! She is professional and on top of things. She loved my dog well. Tucker also made a new best friend with her fun dog! I believe he was sad he had to leave. I would use Jazzy again in a heartbeat.
