We've boarded 4 different dogs at different times. Been a customer for over 10 years. Fantastic place to board your dogs. They absolutely love going there. Plenty of fresh air, grass, and other dogs to play with. Josh and Mike treat your dog as if it were their own dog.

I boarded my dog, Chewy, at Dogwood Kennels from March 22, 2024 through March 23, 2024. Michael was very welcoming and professional and Chewy immediately took to him, which is rare since he is usually very protective and territorial. Michael did a wonderful job making Chewy feel comfortable and at ease. Chewy’s nails were trimmed and done to perfection. I highly recommend Dogwood Kennels and I will most certainly utilize their services again in the near future 🙂

Our two highly energetic pups love Dogwood Farm Kennels. We appreciate the kennel space they can share as they are always together and the outdoor yard area where they can run and play and sniff till their hearts content.Josh, Michael and Astrid have been wonderful, they are very conscientious.

My 9 year old rescue terrier spent 7 nights at the Dogwood Farm Kennel. I am very pleased to have found a place where I know my dog is getting expert care.

Simply the best boarding kennel around. Dogs play outside all day and sleep with no kennel barking. They also have solar heat and A/C. Multiple yards to meet the needs of different dogs. Their slogan is: Where Dogs are Family, and it's true.

It’s not always easy to find a suitable place to board our Great Dane Murphy due to his fear issues with just about everything. Dogwood Farms was a great find for us for when we need to have a place for him to stay. Josh was amazing with him, very well educated with dogs and dog behavior and was wonderful in every way. We are extremely pleased with our experience for Murphy and his “parents”. Thank you so much for the care you provided.

Great place for us to keep our sweet golden/lab mix. The idea of having a trial night ahead of time is perfect for a really emotionally needy dog, so that she knows we're coming back. When we had to leave her for a week later, that was helpful. Thanks y'all for a great experience. Our sweet Lucy has nothing but good things to say!

We were referred to Dogwood Farm Kennels by a friend and are grateful. Josh and Michael are very knowledgeable and are fun and loving with our fur babies, Bella and Sky. I like that there are fenced areas with room for our active dogs to run. We have boarded for extended time periods and Bella and Sky are always healthy and happy when picked up. DFK is easy to work with when trip dates suddenly change slightly. We highly recommend DFK and will definitely use them again!!

I've trusted my dogs here for nearly 10 years. My dogs are always excited when I pull in their driveway. The boys are well taken care of. I really like the freedom they have to roam in the fenced in areas. And the comfortable, spacious kennel area they have to rest in. Wonderful folks that take great care of our 4-legged family members!

My dog, Colin, loves Dogwood Farm Kennels. He could live there...if they'd let him. Josh, Astrid, and Michael take the best care of Colin and all the dogs in their care. He's a rambunctious dog and it's great that he can get his energy out. He comes home happy...and tired. Colin stays as a boarder whenever I'm on trips and he begs to go for daycare on a regular basis. I can't say enough good things about Dogwood Farm Kennels.

Boarded my 9 year old fur baby here for 7 days while I went on vacation and this was the first time she had ever been boarded, despite her anxiety, she did great and the staff definitely made me feel comfortable as well as my dog. If I ever need to board, I will use this place over anyone else. The rates are fair and the kennels are clean and spacious for any dog.

Josh was great, he took excellent care of my big boy Kuma. Facility is clean, staff is professional and the surroundings are really picturesque. Very pleased will definitely go back again when I need to board my boy.

My husband and I have used Dogwood Farm Kennels since July ‘20 on multiple occasions. Josh and his team are very accommodating for setting up our dogs in the right space. They are responsive when it comes to communication and updates upon request, giving you peace of mind while away from your dogs. Our dogs always come home in high spirits and mild-mannered from full days of obvious pets and play. Even since moving 40 minutes away from the kennel, we still use Dogwood as our go-to dog boarders.

I live in Landrum, South Carolina and I found Dogwood Farm Kennels on my search for a boarding facility that provides a lot of outside playtime. Mike showed me around the farm, the kennels were spacious, clean and well aerated. They have very big yards to run around in and the pups get a lot of personal interaction. The Dogwood team is amazing and they're the most affordable dog boarding kennel near me. My dog loves going there and comes home happy and tired from having so much fun!

Update: May 2021. Two months ago, got a second dog from Foothills. She is now a Dogwood Farm Kennels fan!! She loves to spend time here running with the other dogs. I take both dogs out every Tuesday for doggie day care and a sleep over. I pick them up mid-morning and they are tuckered out. They love it and I am incredibly happy with the staff and how well they do with my dogs. Extremely satisfied customer for over 6 years (since I moved here).This is a great place for my dog to run free during the day. They keep the dogs safe. My dog loves to stay here.

This is the only kennel we will use from now on! We’ve used others in the past, and my because my dogs aren’t spayed/neutered (and weren’t allowed in the play yard with other dogs) they were only let out for two potty breaks and one 15 minute play time (that we had to pay extra for). Dogwood Farm kennels is amazing and easy to work with! They have several different fenced in areas that are separated. If there’s a dog that isn’t good with other dogs or In heat (like my female was), they’re able to have their own LARGE space to run free. My pups came back worn out and I know they got tons of play time. Josh/Mike always responded to my texts to check up on the pups. They were very understanding when plans changed last minute and we were able to pick up our pups for 2 days and then drop them back off. I have 2 large German shepherds and I know that they are a handful but josh and mike worked with it. I like how Josh controls the dogs and doesn’t let them just pull him around (mine love to pull when excited..) They recommended an amazing trainer for our pups and we will be starting training in the next few months. Thank you Dogwood Farm Kennels for keeping Zeke and Zoe while we were on vacation!

We boarded our dogs, Julius and Harper, in a shared kennel while visiting with family for 6 days. Josh was so kind, welcoming, attentive, and helpful. We toured the facility and found large kennels and a large fenced play area. Our dogs were happy and tired when we picked them up and seemed to have loved all the play time and attention. They got their toys back and had received their medication as we requested. Definitely recommend using this place if your pups love a lot of play time and attention!

Dogwood Farm Kennels is an amazing place. It's truly the Hilton for canines. Not only does my canine friend love this state-of-the-art retreat, but the owners are intuitive dog whisperers, as well. When I drop off my dog, I know that he'll be loved and cared for as if he were at home. It never feels like work having to communicate with Josh and company, and it's super easy dropping off and picking up there. The dogs get extremely well-treated and loved. They get the best of everything, including playtime with each other. If you know what good vibes are, then you'll get them at Dogwood Farm, and your dog friends will love you all the more for sending them there. If you've got to board your dog for any amount of time, there's only one great option for you: It's Dogwood Farm!

Our dogs absolutely love coming here! Josh and crew take such good care of them. We have only had positive experiences here, and it is wonderful to have a place to take our dogs where we never have to worry about them. We are beyond grateful for Dogwood Farm Kennels. It is truly the best!!

Dogwood Farms was Luna's first time away from me. She is only 1 so I was super worried about leaving her. I can't stress enough that this is literally heaven for your pup. Josh and his team take such good care of the dogs - I know this because Luna feels right at home! She gets to play the whole day and is so exhausted when she comes home. I wish I could give Josh and Dogwood Farms 10 stars. He is so professional and friendly. The dogs love him and they just have such a blast. This isn't an ordinary kennel - this is a doggy resort! Since then I have taken Luna back for another week stay and she had a blast. She gets to be her social self, play the whole day, get loved on, and have a comfy place to sleep. Luna and I have found her home away from home!

We Found Dogwood farm kennels almost 10 years ago when we took our first long trip after getting our dog. He is an Italian greyhound with a little crazy personality. We worried that he wouldn't do well anywhere he stayed because of his neurotic behavior. But he has always has a great stay at Dogwood, since the first stay I think he has been back at least 15 more times when we travel and he always comes home tired and happy. He gets so much more exercise there running with the other dogs he looks more fit when we bring him home!We love the small close to home feel you get at the Kennel and would recommend them to anyone!

I would highly recommended Dogwood Farm Kennels to everyone. Josh is very knowledgeable about dogs, and I felt at ease leaving my baby, Sadie, there. It is a great environment for the dogs with plenty of room to play. I love how they have the facility set up. I will definitely be back. Thanks to everyone at Dogwood Farm Kennels!

My Dogs have stayed here three or four times now for extended periods of time and they will definitely stay here the next time I have to go out of town!I always feel confident that my dogs are being cared for and when ever I have reached out via text or phone to make reservations or ask questions I've always gotten a fast response from Josh. They are happy to come here and are always calm and happy when I pick them up! I highly recommend Dogwood Farm Kennels!

Rude, unprofessional,and sorriest excuse for a business, I've personally ever encountered! I was treated so disrespectfully I can't imagine how they treat the animals when no one is looking! My dog who has Never been aggressive a day in her life snapped at the worker, that was my 1st clue. The old saying says if your dog don't like them you shouldn't either!

Dogwood Farm Kennels is awesome! Worth the drive - you won't be disappointed. We've used the kennel to board our Roxy several times now... and each time she comes home very happy. Josh takes good care of all the dogs and treats them like they were his own pets.

We wouldn't trust our dog with just anyone. Josh and crew are wonderful with her. The farm is now a place she gets excited to see when we pull in to the "Barking Area". The huge fenced in play areas, the indoor kennels, the country setting - all make for a great (and safe) place to leave our beloved dog when we have to be away.

Companies like Dogwood Farm Kennels make me love small business. Before finding Dogwood Farm, we were very hesitant to board our boxer (he can be hyper, play rough, etc). A few minutes after being at DFK, we were at ease. Josh is great with the initial meet, a very calm presence for a usually hyper dog. The kennels are very clean and the attached fenced lots are done very well. After introducing our pup to the pack, he gave us a tour and showed us what the weekend would look like for our dog.Josh is quick to respond to texts checking up on your dog and we couldn't have asked for any more. The price is super reasonable and we (finally) had complete peace of mind on a vacation knowing our dog was in good hands.If you're looking for an honest, hard working family to give you peace of mind and take great care of your dog - look no farther than Dogwood Farm Kennels!

We took our Golden Retriever to Dogwood Farm for doggy day care. About 6 hours later we picked up one happy , worn out pup.The staff is the best, they will treat your pet as they would their own. We will definitely be repeat clients.

My little dog LOVED her big adventure at Dogwood Farm Kennels. She came home happily exhausted from all the fun, plus when I picked her up she was so stunning from her beauty treatment, I almost didn't recognize her!!! You will never find a better place to leave your dog while you are out of town, or just for some daycare fun! This kennel is one in a million and I feel so lucky to have found them!

When we first started taking our dog here 3 years ago we thought Josh was heaven sent. He worked with our dog to help him overcome his fear of people. Starting Christmas 2019 we were charged for extra handling and were not told why. The next time we took our dog when we picked him up he had digressed into fear of people including us. I always check in with Josh while we are away to see how our dog is doing and ALWAYS get a reply that he is doing great. This time when my husband picked up our dog josh was acting like a maniac and charged us for extra handling.When asked why he would only say he wouldn't do what we wanted him to do. When asked what did you want him to do. Josh just became more and more angry and very unprofessional. Unfortunately dogs can't tell you what goes on in a place like that.
