I just wanted to say Thank you for taking such wonderful care on my Lily this weekend. I was devastated when I was told she could not stay in our condo with us. My husband brought her in for me because I couldnt bare to give her to someone else but he told me what a great place you have there and when I called to check on her your Grand Daughter couldnt have been any nicer. Thank you again.

Thanks for taking great care of our dog! I want to thank the ladies of Loving Care Kennels for taking care of our dog Dakota while we were on vacation in the Smokies! They were very nice and the facility was clean, small and not overwhelming with lots of animals. Lida even gave her a good brushing before we left. This was our first time boarding her and she did wonderful and we will definitely bring her back to y'all the next time we go to Pigeon Forge! Thanks again!

I want to thank Lida for the personal "loving care" she showed my Border Collie, Hollie. Recently while visiting Pigeon Forge, Hollie was a guest at Loving Care Kennels and she seemed to enjoy her stay. This was the first time Hollie had to be boarded and quite disconcerting for her family. Lida was understanding and happy to put up with the daily surveillance that ensued the entire week. As far as I was concerned it said it all when I picked her up. She went to me first, of course, but she went to Lida immediately afterward for some petting and patting. She would not have done that if she wasn't treated great!!

I was in Gatlinburg for the weekend for a wedding. I brought my Miniature Pinscher thinking I could keep him with me. The cabins we were staying in did not allow pets, and I did not know this until last minute when I arrived. I googled boarding places in the area and read the reviews for Loving Care Kennels. Being the first time I have ever boarded my dog I was very nervous but felt better reading all the reviews little dog owners left. I took a shot in the dark and drove to the kennels and they were gracious enough to take my dog in at such a short notice. They were really great! Allowed me to call whenever I wanted, and were very friendly. My dog also is on medicine and they were more than helpful with giving that to him twice a day. I definately would use them again if I have to stay in the area!

I went to TN this past weekend to get married and we took our 5 year old dog with us since of course he is part of our family. Well once we checked into the cabin that we had rented for our family and our wedding we were told we could not have him there or we would have to pay a $200.00 fine. At that time my parents were on their why with their 2 dogs and I was told by the cabin management company that I would have a $600.00 fine if they stayed. Well not what a soon to be bride wants to hear. I was so upset my wonderful husband got on the phone and found Loving Care Kennels. A grandmother and granddaughter own and operate this kennel. They were SO SO caring and understanding in what was going on that they came back after hours and let us board or dogs. These ladies went above and beyond helping us and we are very great full for that. We would use them again!!!!!!!!! Thank you again ladies so much.

Just a few notes to express our gratitude for the fine job you did in looking after baily, our beagle this past week.
We were very pleased with your service and kindness in the performance of your services. We will certainly come to see you next time we are in the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge area, as well as recommending you to our friends who may travel to your area in need of pet care.

We have a little 4 1/2 lb. yorkie named Tucker. He had a ball and was so happy when we picked him up after a week of vacationing in the Smokies. They had given him a nice bath just before we arrived. He pouted for a couple of days because he missed all his play buddies and the wonderful care he must have received at Loving Care Kennels. We truly are blessed to have found you. Thank you so much.

The Humane Society of the Tennessee Valley thanks Loving Care Kennels for many years of providing a temporary loving home for animals in need of foster care before they can be made available for adoption at our Adopt-A-Pet Center in Knoxville.
After a dog has been treated for heartworm disease, he or she needs six weeks of careful supervision - Loving Care Kennels has provided this time and again - thereby saving the lives of dogs who would otherwise not have been adoptable. Countless puppies who simply needed time and attention to reach an adoptable age have passed through Loving Care Kennels and gone on to forever homes.
Coleen O'Neill has always donated grooming services - turning ragamuffins into attractive, adoptable pets.
And, in addition all the other wonderful things the O'Neill family does for the animals in our area, they are absolute advocates and promoters of spay/neuter. Loving Care Kennels refers many clients to Fix-A-Pet, our low cost spay/neuter clinic in Seymour - sometimes even providing transportation for the pet. They understand that spay/neuter saves lives.

The name says it all. I recently left my two little dogs with Lida. This was the first time in the 8 plus years since I adopted them that I ever left them at a kennel. Being very special to me and very spoiled I was concerned greatly about their care. In fact, I had passed up many opportunities to go on trips, visit friends, and take vacations for fear of leaving them with strangers .That will not be the case from here on. They will, from now on have a home away from home at LOVING CARE KENNELS. This "animal loving facility" has my highest recommendation

Loving Care Kennels is great. We are from Minnesota and we had a family reunion in Gatlinburg for a week. I had a chance to visited the kennel half way through the week and when our dog, Sega, saw me she was excited but then went back to interacting with the other dogs and Lida. We have been back for about a week now and we can tell that Sega was well cared for. Colleen even fixed our attempt at cutting Sega's hair before we went to Tennessee.

Fine kennel: We had Kodi there for a week. He seemed to be well-cared-for. (Kodi is a 65 pound husky who was previously starved and abused and sometimes acts the bully until he understands that the handlers are on to him.) The facility is as clean as every other good kennel we have used. Their hours are more convenient than some in the area. Be sure to know that they don't take credit cards.

Best in town: I have been a customer of Loving Care Kennels for almost 10 years now. I want to say how kind, friendly and helpful both Lida and Colleen are. I have been at the kennel many times when new customers call and they are always asked if the dog or cat is updated on their shots and vacinations. There are never any exceptions to the rules. I say this because my mother has been a customer for 15+ years and she never assumed my cat had proper vacinations. She asked what and when they where given. If a customer calls and their animal is not properly vacinated she always refers them to a local clinic that will update them. Lida not only runs a sucessful buisness but is very active in the local shelters and always has space for abused or abondonded animals whether in the kennel or in her own home. I would refer Loving Care Kennels to any one who asks me for a good place to board their pet.
