The Howlery

Dog-First. Rematriarchs Only.

Escape The Great Hollowing.

In-Kind. Neighbor-Provided. Community Nourished At Every Level.

Trade your wares, housemades, etc. We’re happy to be your swap spot!

A WampusVerse community hub that puts dogs first. Sleepovers, day and night care, Baths & Blows, human-grade homemade dog treats and food, and dog-cuddling events including movie nights and campfires. Humans can also pre-order to-go family meals, get a coffee at drop-off or grab a drink at happy hour. *Not kid friendly

Payment can be made by providing household essentials including produce, groceries, toys, blankets, anything for safety and stimulus and super duper cozieness. Also, I always need a handyman or have a project that needs attention in this 100-year-old crazy-chopped-up West Asheville House, which makes it a perfect place for a dog B&B for private members only.

Our goal is some playtime of course but mostly we keep it pretty freaking chill in here.

Love, peace, and howls. Because every good dog knows… you have to be a bit of a rebel if you want to get anything done in this world.

Paradise Found for Your Pooch

Doggie Daycare—Nights, Too

The most flexible doggie care schedule anywhere. Drop for two hours, half days, or for date night. We’re open 7:30am-10:30pm. Two yards. Two pack leaders to keep everyone in check (my dogs, Black Mouth Currs Lokwa & Waya).

Zero Saturday pickups/dropoffs (no exceptions). Closed to humans on Mondays but members who need daily care are welcome to pickup/dropoff (just no human hang time like the other days).

To-Go Family Meals

Know you’re going to have a crazy-busy day? Drop your pooch for play time, grab a to-go coffee, then come back after work to scoop up your pooch, a box full of homemade dog treats & food, AND takeaway dinner for 2-4 humans. Day, done.

You don’t have to be a doggie care member to order to-go meals, but you must pre-order and pre-pay.

Sunday: Nostalgia Night

Monday: Soup

Tuesday: Enchiladas, Etc.

Wednesday: Picnic Baskets

Thursday: Kitchen closed

Friday: DenMama’s choice

Saturday: Kitchen closed

Snuggly Sleepovers

Our favorite part of The Howlery. Dogs are welcome 7 nights a week for overnight stays. 1 night up to as many as you need. Couches, beds, and crates for those that like their personal space. Whatever your dog needs for the best slumber party, we’ll make it happen.

And even if you only go out of town for the weekend, feel free to leave them with me Sunday night if it’s going to be after 8pm. We will be in snuggle movie mode by then.

Movie Nights

On Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 7:30, join us for Movie Nights at the puporium: 3 rooms, subtitles on, and you and your dog can join other bondeds to kick back on comfy couches and cuddle strangers (dogs, that is!). Beverages available for donation.

Popcorn available or BYOB (Bring your own bag).

Dystopian, apocalyptic, animated, smart, comedy, etc. suggestions welcome!

Each screen will show the same movie unless a group strongly decides otherwise (we’re a democracy!).

If you want to bring human or animal treats to share (or just enjoy for yourself), please do.

Human-Grade Treats & Food

A part of our day is dedicated to making delicious dog treats and food for you to purchase. Of course, our doggie guests make the best tastetesters.

We even make energy balls for the hoomans. Because you deserve good treats too.

Made separately, of course, but we only use human ingredients in our kitchen anyway.

Wampus CampFires

Thursdays & Fridays from 7:30-9:30, we host WampusVerse CampFires. Drinks, tunes, and happy pups make for a great excuse to get you and your furbaby out of the house and gives like-minded folks a welcoming place to gather and talk all things future-scoping & rematriarchal.

Bring your own smores fixings or anything else you’d like to make (and maybe share!) over the fire.

Thursdays will be the mix and mingle no agenda fire and everyone spilling throughout the house (9 nooks total) and Friday will be the topic-specific, everyone sitting around the fire together vibe to share about one specific question curated by the group of 29 AIs I work with to build the WampusVerse.

Plus Custom “Whatever Your Furbaby Needs” Extra Lovin’

Is your sweetie on meds? Do they need extra cuddles? Do they have a toy no one else can play with? Do they need to go to the bathroom a lot? Are they wearing the cone of shame and need a human to have eyes on them constantly? Whatever your diva, devil, or sweetie needs, we’ve got you covered.

I JUST REALLY DIG WHAT THE HOWLERY IS AND WANT TO SUPPORT IT! #WampusVerseIsAnywhere #PupsUniteUsAll

Baths & Blows

Mondays are for Baths & Blows—stop by for a quick wash while you sit on the porch and watch the dogs play, or drop off your pooch for a few hours. You can also add a Bath & Blow to any stay., any day. Toothbrushing, regular brushing, and nail clipping also available. I will attempt to paint their nails but that seems extra….

Coffees & Cocktails

During drop-off from 7:30-9:30am, we welcome humans to grab a to-go coffee, stay for a cup, or find a cowork nook and bask in the dog heaven. NOTE: If anyone in the neighborhood would like to “offer” their baked goods, specialty breakfast drinks, or anything else that you make at home that is too good not to share with your neighbors, please come set up a little area with your goodies and let people buy from you.

People who love to cook know that you make it in batches. My batches either go in the freezer or go into five different meals for the week or whatever. But it’s not that hard to double or trople a recipe when you’re already IN IT.

During pickup from 4:30-7:30 (and night drops), humans are welcome to come in for a cocktail or stop by with your pup for playtime.
