Pet Boarding
Low Volume High Quality Pet Boarding
Ranchside provides high quality pet boarding on-site in China Grove, NC. Our facility is indoors and is climate-controlled for your pet’s comfort. We have a full security system that’s connected with 911 24/7 for your pet’s safety. Our facility is located in a rural residential area, which is a quiet, calm setting for your pet to relax.
A typical day for your pet includes 4 walks throughout the day and dedicated play time with other dogs (as deemed appropriate by our staff based on each dog’s personality and demeanor). The last walk of the day is after 8pm to ensure they’re not spending too much time in their kennel overnight.

High-Quality Care at Ranchside Vets Clinic
We are a very small boarding facility but we do strive to provide the highest quality of care for your pet.
Ranchside Vets is equipped with both regular and fire security that communicates directly with emergency responders and the veterinary clinic owner. There is also an adjacent home that is occupied by a staff member, so most nights, someone is close by.
No one stays in the building overnight and mid day during the weekend.
We do allow pets to play together in our play yard if they seem compatible. Please let us know if you would rather your pet not interact with other dogs.
