Dogwood Kennels and Cattery

Where Pets Come First

Dog and Cat Boarding

We board dogs and cats in a safe, fun environment full of daily enrichment and lots of interaction with our care team.  We use only positive reinforcement when interacting with all of our guests.

Dog Daycare

Our daycare guests play throughout the day with other, same size dogs.  We offer a safe, fun environment for our day care guests with lots of enrichment and interaction with our care team.

Dog and Cat Grooming

We offer dog and cat grooming in our safe and friendly grooming salon.   We use only positive reinforcement and minimal restraint with our grooming guests.  We work hard to ensure our grooming guests have minimal stress and enjoy their stays.

Training and Behavior Modification

We can help you with any dog training or behavior issue.  We use only positive reinforcement in our training and behavior modification.  We also offer pet consultations to help pet owners select new dog and cat family members that are perfect for their families.

WE BELIEVE IN GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY.
WE CAN USE YOUR HELP…

We work with local rescues including Piedmont Animal Rescue, the Catawba Humane Society and others in our community. We help modify shelter dogs’ and cats’ behavior so that they have a better chance at finding their forever homes. We offer financial support and we help spread the word about the needs of the dogs, cats, birds and their rescue volunteers. These wonderful pets can use your help.

Their Love of Animals Shows

“First class facility. The staff members are very caring and their love of animals shows. My dog Jeter is a high energy lab and he loves it here. He loves to play with other dogs and the dogs that stay here are given plenty of play time each day with similar size dogs.”  ~ Andrew G.

My Pack Loves This Place!

  “My pack of dogs love this place! They are super friendly and the fact that my dogs don’t even say bye to me is good sign.”  ~Naomi B.- C.

I'm Sure It Was An Inconvenience But They Never Made Me Feel Like It Was...

“Layla and Foxy needed a bath and I forgot to call until last minute. Layla was to have surgery today and really needed a bath before. They took them in and did a beautiful job on them . I'm sure it was an inconvenience but they never made me feel like it was and the dogs looked and smelled amazing. The new owners are so very nice and caring and thank you so much for yesterday as Layla will not be getting around very well for a couple of weeks but she will definitely look and smell great!!”  ~Vickie H. - M.

We No Longer Have Any Worry About Leaving Her For A Week To Go On Vacation!

“We recently adopted a new dog "Juno" into our pack. She was traumatized from her time at the shelter so she has major fear issues to work through. Juno is very unsure of new people and new environments. All of the staff at Dogwood were extremely understanding and patient with Juno during her first day of daycare. Today when I dropped her off for her second day, she didn't even hesitate to run right in! It made me so proud and happy to see her more confident in herself and it shows how wonderful Dogwood is for any and all types of dogs. We no longer have any worry about leaving her for a week to go on vacation!”  ~Melanie C.

This was my first visit, but won't be my last!

“Took Bo, my Husky Mix, today for daycare and grooming! He needed some serious de-shedding and they made him look like a brand new dog! I was so pleased with the care and attention they gave to my rescue pup that's a little wary of groomers. This was my first visit, but won't be the last. Thank you!”  ~Megan J.

That makes us feel great!

“Our dog Treacy loves Dogwood Kennels. She is a Boston and rescue dog. Her socialization was done at dogwood and she can not wait to get into the Kennel. Does not even look back. That makes us feel great.”  ~Jean D.

The team always greets me with bright smiles...

“Our little lab Butter has been coming to Dogwood for daycare for the last several months. He absolutely loves it! Leaps into the car every morning after the kids are off on their buses to school ready to go himself (profoundly disappointed when he doesn't get to go). What a lifesaver to have our rambunctious pup all tired out at the end of the day after hours of playing with his friends! The team always greets me with bright smiles and good information about the day. Thanks Dogwood!”  ~Brandon B.

I did not ever board any of my dogs until I found Dogwood!

“Clyde can not wait to go to Dogwood!!! In the mornings he starts herding me, and does his little Clyde wine....until I say to him "do you want to go to DOGWOOD?"... it's all over he sits by the door and waits....Dogwood kennels is the BEST!!!....I did not ever board any of my dogs until I found Dogwood!...Clyde has grown up there, He absolutely is a much better dog, because he plays and is socialized , the Owners and Staff are incredible, so caring, they know each dog and what each one likes, and who they like to play with...if its chase, or fetch, pool, sand box, the obstacle course....its obvious , I can not say enough, about Dogwood !!!! ...THEY DO IT RIGHT!!!!!....Thank you all....Clyde is sleeping at my feet after a great day at DOGWOOD!!!!”  ~LK K.
