Long-time members of the Myrtle Beach Kennel Club, and active in breeding and showing Rottweilers and Silky Terriers, they envisioned creating the kind of kennel where they'd be comfortable leaving their own dogs. Lib designed and built the facility, and Jim designed all of the operating processes and procedures, most of which we continue to use every day.
In 1987, Lib and Jim invited their niece, Dr. Mary Matthes-Guilbeau, to set up her veterinary clinic at Tamroc Kennels. Dr. Mary has been practicing at this location for 28 years.

Excellent facility for a long weekend stay for my beautiful Pitbull Cali. Tamroc is an excellent full service kennel, and they are serious pitbull lovers. I checked my girl in and out for beach time with zero problems. Cali was very calm every time I picked her up and content to go back for the night. Thank you Tamroc staff. Y'all are my go-to kennel in Myrtle

Fantastic boarding experience for all our fur babies and us, their humans. We have four dogs - all older and very set in their ways. Two of the dogs are large dogs. Another one, our oldest dog is 13, blind, and insulin dependent. Tamroc does a great job taking care of our pups. Reasonable fees. Very pleased with our experiences at Tamroc.

Dr. Jade is passionate, caring and knowledgeable. She takes the time to educate you about what is going on with your pet. Our dogs love her. Benji spent a week at the kennel. We love that Dr. Jade is close by if he were to need medical care. The kennel staff were amazing with Benji. And it was a great experience for Benji. When we called to check on him, they were ready to give us a thorough update. We will definitely use the kennel again.

This place was amazing! I had actually reserved a spot somewhere else and refused to leave my dog so I called Tamrock. They had an opening and we're more then happy to take my girl. You can come pick them up, visit and take them back. They also have a vet on hand there which was awesome. She ended up needing to see the vet for a uti and I'm sad I don't live here because no one has ever been so good with her! I felt so safe leaving her there. The staff were so friendly and great. I'll continue to use this kennel when I visit the area!

I am very surprised at the reviews given this kennel. The staff answering phones are very rude and lack skills in customer service. You have to wonder how your family pet is treated when you leave them in their care. The facility is very neglected and has a fowl odor when entering. We have used them on three occasions and will no longer return. We overlooked our prior experience thinking the staff were having a bad day, but this appears to be the norm.

We stayed in Myrtle Beach for our spring break vacation. Since our dogs are getting older, we wanted to find a kennel where our dogs could stay close to our resort and see them periodically throughout the week. The employees at Tamroc were very patient in answering all my questions over the phone before we arrived which made me feel confident that our dogs would be safe and well cared for.
I really liked how often our dogs were let out of their kennel throughout each day to run and play in a large supervised area. I also appreciated how the staff complimented our dogs each time we visited and invited them to stay anytime at Tamroc again when it was time to go back home. My husband and I wish that Tamroc was close to our home so that our dogs could stay with them more often. Thank you Tamroc Kennel for taking great care of our "babies"!

We went on vacation for 11 days. We knew our dog Dominik was in good hands. As mentioned; very clean place. We were hesitant of leaving him in a kennel but had no choice. The owners are very, very nice and caring. I knew the day I met them that Dominik would be ok. I give them 5 Stars hands down and Dominik will be staying here again if need be. Thank you Tamroc Dominiks Dad Larry
