I live in Pennsylvania (PA) and was going away for 3 weeks in July – peak vacation season! I looked at kennels in my area, but did not get that warm and fuzzy feeling about them. A good friend, who lives in North Carolina (NC), recommended Chocowinity Pet Resort and Day Camp as she knows the manager, Miss Sue. I took a trip down to visit my friend and to tour the Pet Resort. The place was immaculate and very well kept. The location is off a main road, but secluded enough to not have a lot of car traffic. Compared to the kennels in PA, this place was perfect with huge runs – even for small dogs; play/common areas outside that were fenced in; staff that were so nice and accommodating, even though I was trying to book during a prime vacation time of year. I really couldn’t have asked for a better place to leave my fur babies and feel that they would be safe and well looked after. They even took the time to send me pics of them while I was away – how caring is that!! So yes, I drove all the way from PA to NC to kennel my dogs with Chocowinity Pet Resort and Day Camp and would do it again in a heartbeat. It was well worth the trip for the peace of mind that my dogs were getting the best care they could while my family and I were away. Thank you again Chocowinity Pet Resort!!
