Love of The Pup Asheville, Tennessee

God Bless Love of the Pup! Dana and Nicole provide a wonderful and unique "concierge" dog hiking service that has proven invaluable for our young and highly energetic coonhound Tallulah. Once a week, Tallulah gets picked up and brought out to their 8 acre fenced in forest, where she runs and romps offleash with other like minded dogs. She is truly in her element in their trusty hands, and comes home happy and exhausted. Gotta love Love of the Pup!!

Dana and Nicole take the best care of our pup, Rusty. If there was a way to give more than 5 stars for this review, I would! The quality of their service is simply top notch. We send Rusty on hiking adventures, and he always comes back tired and happy. We also have boarded Rusty with Dana and Nicole, and they are so reliable and communicative while we are out of town, we know that Rusty is in such good hands. We recently moved to Asheville, and Love of the Pup has made this transition so much smoother for Rusty (and for us). Thank you to Dana and Nicole for loving all dogs as their own!

We LOVE Love of the Pup! Over the years, they've helped us with walking, training and pet-sitting two of our dogs. Both dogs had their share of challenges, but Love of the Pup navigated them beautifully. I don't where we would be without their help!

Dana is the BEST! She has provided us with a service beyond our dreams and Lola is sooooo happy! On our first meeting with Dana she was able to listen to our needs but most importantly Lola's needs. She put us at ease with her knowledge and intuitiveness of dog (and owner) behaviors and idiosyncrasies. Dana has had great insight in Lola's "delicate constitution" and need to run free to "hunt" their property. Lola comes home happy and exhausted! Happy puppy, happy owners!

Dana and Nicole walked our dog in California for years. They were caring, trustworthy, and worked with us to make sure our dog's needs were met. I highly recommend them!

We are lucky to have connected with Love of the Pup. Our dog is so happy on the days she gets to go out and play.

Love of the Pup takes care of my senior shih tzu like he is a family member. He is 16+ years, mostly blind and deaf and they treat him with loving care. I am blessed to have found them!

Dana and Nicole are nothing short of amazing! My dog Watson tends to be very anxious about going anywhere without me, but with their encouragement (and some tasty hot dog bits) he soon learned that an excursion with Love of the Pup was something to jump for joy over! Beyond their excellence and skill with positive reinforcement training, they also send tons of adorable pictures and show genuine love for all their dog-clients. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Dana and Nicole of Love of the Pup left Berkeley pursue their dream of establishing a comprehensive dog service surrounded by land andforest. They chose to settle in Asheville, NC; our loss is Asheville's dog loving community's gain. …

How do you review perfection? Quite frankly, my pets wish I went on more vacations. We’re all over the board - a large breed with exercise needs, a senior lady, a cat who has literally never responded to anyone except Dana, and now two betta fish. They all get love while we’re away. I’m pretty sure there was dialogue with the fish even. On more than one occasion there has been food cooked for the fur babies. I give up. I do good to cook food for the human babies. These people are amazing. Seriously. You can stop with this review. This is who you’ve been looking for.

We were very pleased with the service provided by the Love the Pup during our extended stay in Asheville. Our pack got to experience the great outdoors with off leash walks through a beautiful and fun for the pack property. If you are new to the area or traveling with your pets you can be assured that the service you receive from Love the Pup will be a pleasant surprise and you can rest knowing your pets are being taken very good care of by Dana and Nicole.

Dana and Nicole are nothing less than dog whisperers. They cared for my dog once a week for several years. On the days I was home from work when they arrived, I was able to witness first hand the pure joy my dog experienced when they …

Dana was a great find during a recent visit to Asheville! She made two hotel drop-in visits to feed, walk, and hang out with Daisy, my senior German Shepherd. Dana was sensitive to Daisy’s mobility issues and was so gentle with her. She …

Dana and Nicole are the best of the best!! Hope I can articulate how thrilled we are - not only are they great pet sitters but they are wonderful people and we are so grateful that our paths have crossed. We use Love of the Pup when we are out town for regular visits at our home. Dana and Nicole are prompt , great communicators, trustworthy, conscientious, and will bring out the best in your furries. We have a 20 year old cat (Chester) and a 10 year old Boston Terrier mix (Lucy). Chester took to them immediately - and it warms my heart to see the snuggles. Lucy not only gets to run in the yard but gets daily neighborhood walks and lots of lovin! The updates (after each visit) are thorough and the pictures are amazing - your heart will be full and there will be nothing to worry about! If there are any questions or concerns you will be notified. Dana and Nicole go above and beyond to make sure your furries are well cared for. They are important people in our lives and we look forward to a long relationship with them .

Dana and Nicole have a deep and obvious love for animals. I don't feel comfortable entrusting my pup, Redd Dogg, to anyone else. They are both well educated in animal care and understand the psychology of pets. It's impressive how well my …

Our pups LOVE this pet-sitting service! Originally they took care of our 3 furbabies with our lung-cancer, chemo bichon having a very difficult medication schedule. Bayer got a year of quality life and enjoyed every extra minute especially …

Love of the Pup loved our dog like she was their own. They were one of the highlights of the beginning of our time living in California, showing us cool trails and dog beaches, giving us advice on vets, and watching our pup while my wife …

You guys in Asheville just got incredibly lucky. Dana and Nicole were my dog (and cat) sitters for many years in Berkeley and I can't begin to describe what a treasure they are. Unlike many other sitters I have tried they are actually dog …

Dana and Nicole are kind, professional, and knowledgeable about everything that is best for our dogs! From behavior to health. We have a senior dog and a crazy puppy. They thankfully encouraged us to adopt the puppy and have supported us throughout our newest adventures with him. We feel like Dana and Nicole are part of our family. We trust them wholeheartedly with our furry babies, and enjoy some grown up human conversations as well. Love you both!
