BowWow Inn: Personalized In-Home Dog Boarding Services in Greensboro, NC
Where your four-legged BFF is my only guest and singular focus, ensuring personalized, tailored care.
What’s the BowWow Inn?
The Piedmont Triad’s BowWow Inn is highly personalized in-home boarding for your dog—and only your dog. The BowWow is comprised of one safe, peaceful home, one lush fenced-in yard, and a dog-loving human who works from home so is here to attend to your dog’s unique needs. With the exception of canine siblings, only one dog at a time stays at the BowWow. That means your four-legged family member will have my complete attention and reassuring full-time presence, day and night. My mission is to building a trusting, loving relationship with your pet, while giving you total peace of mind while you’re away. This 1:1 approach allows me to individualize care for consistency and harmony as your dog transitions between home and the BowWow. And it helps me sensitively address and attend to any unique needs or idiosyncrasies of your pet, such as:
- Specialized diets and strict feeding routines
- Anxious temperment or easily triggered nervousness
- High affection / attention requirements
- Fear of strangers—whether humans or other dogs
- Older dogs who need extra TLC or gentle encouragement
Your Doggie Dos & Don’ts, Honored
Rest assured, if at home your pup has been trained to remain off of furniture, then that’s how we’ll roll at the BowWow. On the other hand, if a canine cuddle on the sofa is the norm at home, then my approach will lean that way. The spirit of the relationship you’ve built with your dog, as well as comfort-enhancing practices and day-to-day routines you’ve established over time will be respected and embraced for consistency. My goal, ultimately, is to provide your beloved pup with a peaceful yet playful experience that feels as close as possible to the essence of day-to-day life at home, with you.
Canine Creature Comforts
You‘re most welcome to bring as many (or as few) doggy gear items with your precious canine cargo for stays of any length. Some folks bring crates, favorites toys / blankets, feeding dishes, etc., others don’t. Either approach, or somewhere in between, is just fine. You know your dog best — and I will lean on your relationship and expertise to guide my care. And of course my North Star guidance will come from what your pup is conveying through behavior, vocalizing, and so on. I work patiently to establish a trusting relationship.
Fenced-in Field o’ Sniff Spots
All of the BowWow’s four-legged guests seem to enjoy the aroma feast of past doggy visitors all around the house, and there are lots of comfy spots to chill inside. But the real excitement is out back. Many a pup are daily practitioners of what appears to be a highly addictive pastime I call ‘perimeter patrol’. Apparently, just along that six-foot fence line is where all the best smells linger and sniffing spots abound. If you’re the curious type, here’s a great American Kennel Club article about the benefits of sniff spots.

Miss Spice
I highly recommend Julie for her exceptional dog boarding services. Julie has cared for my beloved Spice on multiple occasions for extended periods, and I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, dedication, and genuine love for dogs.
Operating her boarding service from her home, Julie provides a safe and nurturing environment for any dog. From our first meeting, it was evident that she prioritized the well-being and happiness of Spice above all else. Her home is equipped with all the necessary amenities to ensure the comfort and security of any dog under her care, including a spacious fenced yard where Spice roamed freely without the stress of bustling kennels.
Julie took the time to intimately understand Spice's quirks, preferences, and anxieties, tailoring her care to ensure Spice felt cherished and secure throughout her stay. Whether providing extra cuddles or engaging in energetic play sessions, Julie went above and beyond to make sure Spice felt loved and content. Her updates, complete with photos and videos, provided invaluable reassurance while I was away, affirming the exceptional care Spice was receiving.
Julie maintains a clean and organized environment, ensuring a hygienic and safe space for her four-legged guests. She adheres to strict routines and schedules, including feeding and exercise, even going the extra mile to learn Spice's specialized meal preparation and storage needs.
I have complete faith in Julie's ability to provide top-notch care for any dog entrusted to her, and I wholeheartedly recommend her without reservation to anyone seeking a reliable and loving home boarding service.

Miss Lacy
Until I found Julie, I had not boarded my older chihuahua with anyone. Recommended by another very selective dog owner, she turned out to be the most caring, thoughtful dog sitter and MORE…detailed oriented and wanting to make her visitors comfortable. She prepares a spreadsheet for their sleep, feeding, and elimination routines! Julie rates five stars in loving, kindness, and integrity.

Cliff
We have used Julie to watch our dog Cliff for years. Cliff loves her and so do we! Cliff is 12-year-old who loves attention. We have found Julie to be caring and attentive. We’d have no reservations in recommending her services to others.

Charlie
Charlie loves Julie! As soon as we near the door he runs right in. She is flexible, easy to communicate with, and treats Charlie as her own. I love seeing the photos and videos she sends of Charlie’s vacation, while we’re on ours. She’s been Charlie’s trusted sitter for years.
