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.
