Unfortunately, because we are a home environment with an HOA, we are not able to accommodate Pitbulls, Rottweilers, Mastiffs, German Shepherds, Doberman Pinschers, or any dog with a history of past aggression. We meet all dogs prior to accepting them as guests, with exceptions made only on an individual basis due to size, age, and breed, in special circumstances.
The Barkmore House offers best dog boarding, and dog sitter services in Durham, NC. We are your dog's home away from home.
After early retirement from being a UNC professor, Hollie is now at home, dogsitting 24/7. Joe isn't as lucky, and he has to leave each day to run a department at a large university in Chapel Hill. Poor Joe. Hollie has a lot more fun! Together, we use our 30 years of experience caring for dogs to provide quality care for both overnight and occasional doggy daycare in our home.

Hollie, Joe and their kids are my life saver. I cannot thank them enough for taking care of my two boys. Although they had problems with one of my dogs, they stick with them . I am extremely happy and I highly recommend them.
Hollie was amazing! We met before my vacation to make sure it was a good fit. I was so nervous to leave him, but she was so kind. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day, every day. She took great care of my boy, and I will definitely board with her again!
Hollie watched our dog Joplin while we were away for a week and based on all of the awesome photos she sent us daily, Joplin had an amazing time. :) Hollie and her family love dogs and I’m happy to have found such a great local sitter.
Nora and Sage had a wonderful stay with Hollie. Hollie made them feel right at home and took great care of both of our dogs. During my next travel, i will most definitely look to bring the dogs back for another visit.
Hollie and her family took excellent care of Rusty. He was actually sad to leave. We received daily updates and I had complete peace of mind while we were away. Thanks Hollie for your excellent care of our Rusty!
Our stay with Hollie was fantastic ! We loved the daily updates on our girl , and Abbey seemed to be so happy there. Hollie was so competent with our dog, and we shall definitely use her again.
