Our black lab has the best time here! She gets to see all her doggo friends and comes back exhausted. We have also gotten her nails trimmed and they do a great job! The woof lodge will treat your family like their own family. We appreciate them. Thank you!

My dog is a rescue, adopted from shelter, abused and scared of everything.
He loved Woof Lodge, and that's where I will leave him from now on.

The Woof Lodge has always taken care of my boys. They can barely wait to get through the door to see all of their pup friends and sometimes do not want to leave! Thanks to all of the team who take the best care of my babies!

I couldn't be happier. My fur baby spends the day at The Woof Lodge while I'm working. He's happy being there and I don't wonder what mischief he's in. He comes home tired and ready to cuddle. 😁 🐶

The Woof Lodge family treats us like family . My dogs jump out of the car every morning to run in to play . When I pick them up in the afternoon they jump to say goodbye to their Woof Lodge Family. They come home happy , clean and tired

Super happy with the boarding experience our little Bella had at Woof Lodge. She came back to us thirsty and tired, and very glad to see us, but in no way did she appear scared or even bored. Overnight borders get to interact with other dogs, they get human attention and they get down time when they need it. The staff is amazing to both pets and owners, and Woof Lodge even has an attendant on the premises overnight! I do wish fur parents got a tour of the facility or that a virtual tour was available online, but the fact the Bella comes back happy speaks volumes! Thanks Wood Lodge!

My fur babies love Woof lodge. They always get excited when I say it and even more excited when we get there. We have tried several day care and lodging places in the Asheville area, and Woof lodge is the best I’ve ever been to. Always polite. Always accommodating. And I know they love my babies too. Strongly recommend.

On short notice they accommodated our Boarder Collie Ginger. They were able to do a bath and she received a very nice bag with her picture on it. What a great experience Highly recommend-Thank you WOOF Lodge

Stella loves the days that she gets to spend at The Woof Lodge. She has so much fun playing and interacting with the other dogs. She has really come out of her shell since she started coming here. The staff is wonderful and they treat Stella and myself like we are part of their family.

My pups love the Woof Lodge and the staff. They treat them as members of their own family. One of my dogs was 16 and recently passed. They made sure she didn’t over do
It and gave her plenty of rest while she was in daycare. I have boarded as well on several occasions and know my dogs will be well taken care of.

I needed someone to keep my 9 week old lab puppy when I have to go into the office all day and most places don’t take them that young and without all vaccines. The Woof Lodge does accommodate the younger puppies where they can be socialized in a safe way playing with other puppies their age.

My dog Finley…now 4 months old…was shy at first but it only took a couple of days there and now he practically drags me in the door with tail wagging waiting to go play with all his canine friends. He absolutely loves The Woof Lodge and cries on days that he realizes we are not going.

If you are looking for a great place for play and socialization for your dog, I definitely recommend The Woof Lodge. Their rates are comparable or even less than other places and your dog will come home happy, tired and…if a puppy…less biting and behavioral issues since they were able to get energy out.

We have been taking our boxer here for over a year and have been very pleased with each visit! He doesn’t want to come home when it’s time to pick him up. Haha. Also we have had him bathed and groomed there and it was perfect, he was even sent home both a little bow tie! They even take pics and post them online so you can see your fur babies playing. The staff are professional and very friendly!! Definitely recommend the woof lodge!!

My 2 Boston Terriers are always rushing to get in the door!!! They do love The Woof Lodge and they remember it every time we take them. The owners really do care and have a lot of love to give them. It always smells so fresh and clean as we walk in! We are always greeted by beautiful, friendly and happy smiles!!!

We went in a 3 week long trip and boarded our dog and our cat here. Owners and their employees are very professional and sweet. They made sure to follow up with us every day on how our pets were doing. Once we picked them up they didn’t wanna leave you can tell they had so much fun!!! They now attend daycare 4 days a week. I’ve never seen my dogs so happy!!! Please consider bringing your dog to The Wood Lodge. Nothing shy of an amazing facility!!
