Pets R Home

Pets "R" Home offers dog boarding and daycare in Mooresville, North Carolina, out of a home rather than a commercial kennel building. It runs as a doggy and kitty bed and breakfast, so cats are boarded alongside dogs. Boarding is cage-free, meaning pets stay in the house instead of spending the day in a run.

What a stay looks like

Owners send the food their pet already eats, and that regular diet is kept the same through the stay. Comforting items from home are welcome, so a familiar blanket, bed, or chew can come along. Medication administration is available for pets on a schedule, and special diets are handled. Proof of current vaccinations is required before a stay.

How it differs from a kennel

The draw is continuity. A dog eats what it eats at home, sleeps on its own bedding, and spends the stay in a house instead of a facility. That setup tends to suit dogs who do poorly with rows of runs, or who need someone watching how they eat and settle. Cats are welcome under the same roof.
