  Charlotte, North Carolina, has been listed in many top ten "Best Places to Live" rankings compiled by Money Magazine, Relocate America and others. These honors could reasonably be extended to include four-legged residents of Charlotte as well, judging from the quality and variety of designated pet hotels and upscale kennels available in the Queen City.
