  • When you book a Retreat Stay at Ruff Ridge, your pup will enjoy a balanced mix of play, enrichment, and rest. Days include supervised group play with compatible dogs, daily walks, and plenty of attention and snuggles.

    At night, dogs settle into a calm, comfortable routine with sleeping arrangements that suit their individual needs.

    We offer flexible stays ranging from a single day to multiple weeks, making Ruff Ridge a great fit for both short trips and extended time away. You’ll also receive daily updates and photos so you can stay connected every step of the way.

  • Our 30 and 60 minute dog walks are a great option for pups who need extra exercise and attention during long days when you’re away. We come to your home and take your dog on a walk tailored to their routine, whether that’s around the neighborhood or at a local park.

    We’re also happy to walk multiple dogs from the same household at once.

  • Need someone to check in on your pets while you’re away? Our drop-in visits are a flexible, reliable option. A Ruff Ridge team member will come to your home to provide attentive careβ€”whether that’s a walk, fresh food and water, or some extra love and snuggles.

    Visits can be scheduled once or multiple times per day, depending on your pet’s needs. Drop-in visits are available for all household pets, not just dogs.

  • If you’re planning a trip that isn’t pet-friendly, the Ruff Ridge team is here to provide dependable, in-home care for your pets while you’re away.

    Travel with peace of mind knowing your dog, cat, or household pet is safe, happy, and well cared for with us.

    Each hike is thoughtfully tailored to your dog’s fitness level and comfort, with a focus on safe, enriching exploration. We handle all the details and head out to a carefully selected, dog-friendly trail approved by you in advance.

    Along the way, you’ll receive updates and photos so you can follow your pup’s adventure in real time.

Our Property: The Ruff Ridge Chateau

Located just 10 minutes from Downtown Hendersonville, our peaceful mountain property offers a safe, quiet retreat designed entirely with your dog in mind.

At the heart of Ruff Ridge Retreat is our custom-built, cozy Chateau. Inside, we offer both private kennel options for dogs who prefer their own space and an open lounge area complete with a couch & dog beds for those who enjoy relaxing in a more social setting.

Just outside, pups have access to two large, fully fenced yards where they can run, play, and explore freely. On warmer days, we even set up a kiddie pool so water-loving dogs can cool off and enjoy some extra fun.

Nestled on Davis Mountain, our location provides access to a variety of scenic hiking trails, perfect for enriching walks and outdoor adventures. Whether your dog is staying for a Retreat Overnight or coming for Daycare, they’ll have plenty of opportunities to explore, play, and feel right at home.
