A quiet country kennel about 25 minutes south of Benton — worth the drive for what’s waiting: a private suite with its own fenced yard, hands-on care, and all-inclusive pricing with no hidden fees.
Benton doesn’t have a luxury boarding option of its own — which leaves most dog parents choosing between the big commercial kennels in Bossier or Shreveport, or a pet sitter they’re not quite sure about.
Noble Nose is the quiet third option. We’re about 25 minutes south of Benton in Greenwood, on our own property with our own dogs nearby. Every guest gets a private indoor suite with an attached fenced outdoor yard — not a shared run in a warehouse-style facility.
The drive from Benton is straightforward: south on LA-3 to I-220, then west on I-20 to Greenwood. About 25 minutes in normal traffic. Clients from Benton tell us the drive is well worth it for the difference in quality — especially for dogs that don’t do well in busy, noisy kennel environments.
A quick drive south on I-220 + I-20 brings you to a calmer, more personal boarding experience than any commercial kennel in the area.
Noble Nose sits on our own property — not in a strip-mall commercial district. Peaceful, quiet surroundings that help dogs settle in quickly.
Every guest has their own indoor suite with an attached fenced yard. No stacked runs, no hallways full of barking.
Our kennel is next to our home. Someone is always here — not a weekend-only staff who’ve never met your dog.
Meds, special diets, extra walks, photo updates. All included. No surprise add-ons at pickup.
Because we’re small and family-run, every dog gets real one-on-one time. Not a number, not a kennel ID — your dog by name.
Appointment-based drop-off and pickup. No waiting in line behind other families.
From Benton and the surrounding areas — Cypress, Plain Dealing, the Airline Drive corridor — it’s about 25 minutes in normal traffic.
The simplest route: head south on LA-3 (Airline Dr) to I-220 West. Take I-220 to I-20 West, then exit at Greenwood (Exit 5) and head south on LA-169. Our address loads directly in Google Maps, Waze, and Apple Maps.

“Scout barks and growls at EVERYONE — the previous place had to give him anxiety meds. He didn’t need anything here! All 3 dogs ate well, were happy, and had a blast. This is our new home away from home.”
“There is no other facility like it. It’s gorgeous — like a luxury hotel for pets. Ashley sent pictures throughout our whole trip. She truly went above and beyond. I cannot say enough good things.”
“From booking to drop-off to pick-up, Noble Nose exceeded every expectation. The kennel is spotless. Photos of our happy pups proved she genuinely cares. Noble Nose should be at the top of your list.”
“Ashley is a hidden gem. Noble Nose, hands down, is the best boarding kennel I’ve used. The facility is newly built, climate controlled, and top of the line. The one-on-one engagement made all the difference.”
“Bentley’s first night away from us. Ashley and Brandon made our first boarding experience amazing — they love animals like their own. The kennels are very clean and Bentley was treated like a king.”
“Could not recommend more! The rooms were very clean and everything was top notch. I messaged last minute and they got Penny a spot right away. They sent pictures and detailed updates the whole time. LOVE.”
