Wonderdog Merrimon Asheville, Tennessee

Wow! It is a wonder that anyone would think about taking their dogs anywhere else. The Owners of Wonderdog have been taking care my dogs since we rescued them and can't imagine anyone else caring for them. They treat my dogs more like family than my own family. They can be very strict about their temperament tests, but it is for the benefit of the dog and owner. Knowing how thorough they are and how they are about the dogs they are willing to board, I have absolute faith that my dogs will be around other well balanced and well behaved dogs. I was always well informed about exact expectations at every step. I have rarely found a groomer/boarder with such organization, poise, and genuine dedication to the proper care of my animals.

Great staff at wonderdog that is knowledgeable, attentive, and caring and are always willing to go the extra mile for me and my dog!

Did not honor our reservation over the busy holiday season and left us scrambling - also said they were “horribly understaffed” by own admission. Not trustworthy at all! We were told when we made the reservation that we could “come in any time” for a temperament test as our dogs were new to boarding here. I made the rez, paid the deposit, and when I called three weeks in advance to drop the dogs off for the test was informed that tests were by appointment only and that none were avail thru year end…therefore our reservation would be cancelled. ?!?! No advance notice, no communication, no apologies for leaving us stressed finding a place at the last minute. Abysmal customer service, not to mention their excuse was that they were “horribly short staffed” and therefore could not accommodate a simple vetting appointment. This is obviously concerning…think twice before boarding your furry family here.

Seth & his team are fantastic! The care of the animals is of their utmost concern and it really shows. They have always been so easy to work with, too. My dog always loves going to daycare and comes home a happy, worn out pup! We'll be taking her to Wonderdog Merrimon for years to come.

My furball and I have been clients of Wonderdog for a few years now and we have never had a bad experience. These folks run the best shop in town which is why they are in such high demand. The team at Wonderdog really makes the difference. They are empathetic, acknowledge my concerns and know how to deal with a worrisome client like me. It is obvious that they are passionate about the animals that they work with and that they truly care about providing the best services possible. When I board my best friend at Wonderdog I know he will receive the highest quality care he can receive while I am absent.

Excellent people and my dog loves it here. The first day care she actually gets excited to see. Highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic establishment. The owners and employees truly care about your furry family. They are reliable, hard working, and very flexible when schedules change. I will be a repeat customer for years to come!

This is a fabulous business! They seem to do it all when it comes to Dogs - daycare, boarding and Grooming. All the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The business is easy to locate and has good parking. My pup was new to the whole experience and he came out happy and beautiful looking.

These folks didn't let me board my dog here, and that made me like them MORE. Let me explain- I was in a bind where my pet-sitter cancelled on me last minute. I have a geriatric shepard and a very nervous young pittie. They were willing to work with my schedule to get the dogs in for a playdate test on short notice. From the very beginning, I was totally impressed with how the staff handled my nervous dog. They were incredibly kind, patient, and unassuming, and obviously have training and dog-handling experience. After I left they called me quickly to let me know my guy was still really stressed, and that he probably wouldn't be happy here. Basically, they were more concerned about my dog's well-being than making a buck, and that speaks volumes! Their customer service is impeccable- honest, professional, and timely. I hope eventually to work my nervous dog up to being able to stay here. They obviously care about your pet.

My dog loved being there!

We boarded our two doggies here for a couple weeks as first time customers. There was an incident concerning one of our dogs that required special attention. The owner, Seth, personally took care of the situation and stayed in excellent communication through out our trip. Between Seth and his wonderful staff, we were put at ease and could enjoy our vacation. Our dogs came home happy happy, and we left happy as well. We will definitely be back.

I LOVE taking Pogo to WonderDog. Seth & Megan & crew have really worked with me to make this the best possible experience for my rescue dog. Pogo loves coming to play with all of his little friends a couple times a week and knowing that he is happy and safe makes it all the better. We have been coming since March and love every day! Boarding was also an amazing experience and knowing that he gets to be in daycare during boarding is all the better! Thanks amazing crew! We appreciate you! ????

Seth and team are very attentive to the dogs. Our dog leaves happy, tired and always jumps from the jeep and runs to the front door when we return. We left the last place months ago because the employees kept turning over and we noticed our dogs attitude was changing with every visit. Wonder ???? rocks!

We boarded our rescue poodle with Wonderdog for the first time. Our little girl has past trauma and is very shy and untrusting. The staff at Wonderdog went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and were very responsive. If we need to board again, we will plan to use Wonderdog.

I've been taking my dog here since November 2020. They frequently update their Facebook page with pictures taken during the day, and even offer on-site grooming and nail trims, which is super convenient at very reasonable prices. Everyone is always super friendly, and all of the dogs anyways seem very happy!

Every single person I’ve met here is someone I completely trust with my dog. They run an efficient business with excellent communication and pricing that feels appropriate. My dog looks forward to going and that says something as he has some history of trauma. He does however think there should be more blueberries on hand for snacks.Thanks Wonderdog!

Awesome staff and a safe place to get your pup groomed or daycare.

They did a great job with Esther and listened to my specific requests. :)

Love this place. My "girls" were happy and obviously treated well. The staff gave them attention and made sure they were comfortable and content.

Best place for my pup!

I’m so impressed with Wonderdog as a business and so happy with the grooming my dog received! I have a long haired german shepherd who was in desperate need of grooming and he has never looked better after a visit to Wonderdog! He’s sleek and soft and was even very relaxed after his visit even though he’s an anxious dog. They went above and beyond and genuinely cared about my dog and doing the best job possible. The facility is clean and smells good and the owners and staff are very professional. We will definitely be back!

Seth and the staff are very caring and attentive to what's best for our Sadie. We highly recommend Wonderdog!
