Hatteras Island Pet Resort

Our big, goofy babies just spent 5 nights at Hatteras Island Pet Resort while our boarding business was closed for vacation and they seemed to have a blast! We enjoyed so many picture updates through Facebook and staff communication was great via email! Very professional and friendly.

We checked them out one morning for a walk and playtime on the beach just across the street. Upon returning to the lobby, they happily followed staff right through the door back to their kennels without even saying “goodbye”. 🤧😂🥰 It was very comforting to know they (and we) felt like they were in good hands. We will definitely use them again if we come back this way!

I took my two dogs in for grooming during a three week trip to OBX. It was fast and affordable, and they came home wearing adorable Halloween-themed ribbons on their collars. The employees seemed to really love working with animals; if we lived nearby this would be our go-to place for boarding and grooming.

Took my German short haired pointer to get his bath and nails trimmed. He loves a spa day and they loved him. I'm not sure what they did to him but he's never come out of the spa fluffy. 🤣. I don't know if he's ever been that clean or it's the shampoo. Either way I'll keep taking the big lug back while I'm assigned here in the OBX..

Our two dogs had their first of hopefully many happy stays here last week. They came home calmer and happier than I think we've ever seen at a kennel. And so clean!! We appreciated the advance data gathering and attention to detail that hatteras island pet resort offers. And we REALLY loved seeing pics of our happy pups online during their stay. No finicky dog request seemed to cause any concern on their part -- the setup guarantees they get attention and I think that makes all the difference. We love this place!

Banks has been going to Hatteras Island Pet Resort for a couple of years now and every time we pull up his tail is wagging and he can’t wait to get into the building to get all the love/attention from the awesome staff. Today was the first time I used the groomer-Hannah and she is great!! Hannah made Banks feel so comfortable when she cleaned/plucked his ears which is hard to get any groomer to do! Thanks so much for all that you do for Banks! Love this place!! ❤🐾

I dropped my dog, Cooper, off for a bath/nail appointment with Hannah. He has had a lot of fun on vacation but really needed a bath. He immediately went to her in the lobby. I could tell he was comfortable instantly. The front staff was welcoming and kind. An hour later I returned to a handsome and happy pup! Thank you, Hannah for your attention and love to my pup. We will be back to see you! What an amazing place. The owner is phenomenal!

My dog loves HI Pet Resort. The staff is beyond amazing. They take great care of my dog (boarding, grooming & day care) & the pics they post on SM give you peace while away from your furry bf. Highly recommend!

Our fur babies LOVE all of the wonderful people at Hatteras Island Pet Resort. Our black lab, just runs into see Elaine or Sabrina or any of the amazing ladies that work there.

Hatteras Island Pet Resort has been amazing for my puppy and I. He's stayed there multiple times and they're always wonderful with him, they always remember him and while he's always glad to see me when I come to pick him up, he eagerly goes with them and doesn't look back. Their rates for boarding, nail clipping and baths are very competitive and even though their site shows fees for early pick-up and drop-off, they're almost always willing to work with you assuming they have the space. This has allowed me to leave the island earlier or come back later and saved me many hours in Virginia or Raleigh traffic. I can't recommend them enough.

Our sweet Mathilda stayed at this wonderful pet resort! Sabrina, Elaine and the staff have been nothing but great to us and our girl. We definitely recommend this place and will be back. Thank you again for taking care of our Tilly girl!

Thank you obx pet resort for taking care of our dog Rusty! We really appreciate you guys and all that you do to keep all your doggy visitors comfortable and happy. We are super grateful!

Had an absolutely fantastic experience boarding my dog for a week. The staff saw right away that my dog who is a recent rescue would be more comfortable in a quieter spot, so they set her up in a place where she'd feel super safe and secure. They gave her special attention to ensure she was eating and everyone on staff was great to me, too. Wonderful people. Clean facility. Easy to get to right off the bridge. Terrific communication. I'll gladly work with them again and give them my highest rating, gratitude, and recommendation.

Best boarding experience ever! This was my first time boarding my dogs here but will definitely not be the last. It’s the perfect solution when not staying in a pet friendly house. We checked the pups out almost every day to join the rest of the family on the beach, even though we never felt like we needed to. The pups were happy and excited to return each evening and followed right back. The one day that we didn't check them out, the FB pictures were great to see! The staff were incredible and took the time to learn the dogs personality and traits to provide the best care! We will definitely be back, even if future houses are pet friendly!

The staff was extremely organized and prepared for our dogs arrival! I was impressed with the cleanliness of the facility as well. I loved the daily pics uploaded to Facebook it was awesome to see our dogs having a great time. I really appreciate that they don’t do group play just one on one. We picked up happy dogs at the end of our vacation, it was great to not have to stress about them knowing that they were in great hands.

This was our second time using Hatteras Island Pet Resort and they have yet again exceeded our expectations. We picked our dogs up throughout the week, but we never felt like we needed to. Our dogs were happy and excited to go back. The staff is so friendly and great with our pups. We will continue using them when we return to Hatteras. Could not recommend them more.

Great place to leave your loved pups! The staff is wonderful and very accommodating, you can tell you are leaving your pet with family who will love them like their own! Don’t hesitate to book.

What a wonderful place! My fur babies Ben and Yogi stayed 2 nights. I waited too long to book so I was only able to get the 2 nights. Regardless, It that was relaxing free time for me knowing my fur babies were in caring hands. We've used HIPR many times over the years when vacationing in Cape Hatteras. The staff are genuine animal lovers, the facilities well maintained and nicely decorated, like a B&B for pets. A hidden gem for pets.

The staff at Hatteras Island Pet Resort was so great with my dog. They treated him and loved him like his was their own. This is the second time we’ve used HIPR when visiting the OBX. Highly recommend this facility and their crew.

On separate days I have now had the remarkable experience for both me and my dogs. I have a three year old Cavalier and a 11 year old Mulipoo. Each time we have been met with just love and kindness from Sabrina and Ireland.
Their groomer, Hannah is by far the best I have ever found..
I am so happy. My girls look absolutely beautiful!!!
Thank you

These ladies are the best! We drive 1.5 hours to drop Ella off with them if we can't take her on a trip with us. Not being in a small kennel, like most boarding places, and the care they give is worth the drive. Ella wags her tail when she gets there which is surprising because she has bad separation anxiety. That says a lot about the place. Highly recommended!
