I'm a Canine Behaviorist and Training Specialist who has four dogs. I have never felt comfortable boarding my dogs, no matter how great the facility looked. That all changed when I boarded my dogs with Noah's Ark Kennel and Cattery. The staff is more than top of the line; they are caring, gentle and have a great deal of knowledge. It is the only place that you will find indoor outdoor kennels and of all the kennels I have ever seen, this one not only takes the cake, it bakes it too! When I had trouble finding my vaccination reccords, the owner stayed over 30 minutes past closing time to accomodate us without any sign of distress. We also ended up needing for them to kennel our dogs for a few extra days and it was no problem at all for them. During our entire trip we never once felt our usual feelings of insecurity or uncertainty that had been common with previous boarding facility's. We have always boarded with Vets or high end boarding but we just never felt completely comfortable. From both a Canine behaviorist's point of view and a dog parent; I observed that not only were the other dogs in the kennel in a state far far better than that of any other kennel I have been to, but the owner and staff were made up of the kind of people that truely care about our dogs and care about what they do. They are there for the dogs, and that showed from the very begining. When we went to pick up our dogs, we could tell they enjoyed themselves and we very well taken care of. My girlfriend, myself and our four dogs have Noah's Ark Kennel and Cattery as the number one kennel in all of North Carolina to take our dogs to. My girlfriend and I also give it our professional standard of approval and reccomendation as well. Thank you to all the staff at Noah's Ark Kennel and Cattery for taking such good care of our dogs and making us feel so welcome and secure in leaving our wonderful dogs with you all!
Pros: Unbelievable owner and staff, great kennels, hands down the best boarding experience I have ever had
Cons: Now that we moved to another state we have to settle for everyone else
