Cat Sitters in Belle Haven, VA

Our pup goes weekly and comes home exhausted after playing with other dogs. The staff is friendly and caring. The building and grounds are well kept.

Joyce and the staff are wonderful with our two Rottweilers! They maintain our regular schedule for feeding, walks, etc. so there's no adjustment period when the dogs come home. The building is exceptionally clean and spacious, with plenty of safe outdoor space for playing. The pups are always excited to go, and they are calm and happy when they come home. And I get peace of mind while I'm away because I know they are well cared for.

Cider loves going to puppy camp here! The owner and staff clearly love the animals they care for and are very accommodating. They facility is clean and has a variety of play spaces both indoors and out to keep pups interested in their surroundings. The proof for us is how excited Cider is when he realizes he's just arrived at Seaside Pet Resort...he willingly runs up to greet the staff and can't wait to go inside to meet new friends. That always makes us feel at ease and we know he'll be happy and well cared for until our return.

Excellent Pet Care Services for your Dogs! Safe environment, heated floors, clean facility and 24 hour care on premises! Staff really care for your Pets! Come here often👍 …

My dog has no problem being dropped off here. They treat animals well.

They take care of our canine friends. Good layout and attention to doggie needs. They get to know our doggies and take good care. Require vet current health.

Joyce was extremely rude on the phone when I inquired about boarding here. I will happily take my pets elsewhere if that’s how she treats people.

This is the one of the best place on the shore for boarding dogs. They have a large fenced in area for dogs to play the in. They also have a indoor play area for rainy days. This is a great place to bring dogs.

Junior loved coming here. He was always treated like family. Joyce and her staff are second to none.

Gina and Destiny are fantastic with our dog, felix. And of course with all the other dogs too. Felix looks forward to seeing tthem

Chloe is fabulous. The Beast is a handful but he loves her and she is so very patient with him. 🥰🥰🥰 …

I have 7 dogs and they have gone to the Barkyard Barn with Chloe for the last year. Chloe is amazing! My dogs absolutely love going there. She takes them on walks and treats them like they are her own. She gets to know each of their personalities and they completely love her! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my babies! Words can’t even describe how much I appreciate Chloe and the Barkyard Barn!!!

Chloe is the best!! My dogs love to go there and she gives them the best Care. I could not be any happier with the peace of mind when I leave them with her. 😀 …

Chloe is very talented, passionate, and makes the experience very easy affordable and shows all the dogs so much love!! The absolute best!!

My dog, Kiara absolutely loves this place. And the best part is she plays all day so when she gets home she is exhausted and knocks out so it's perfect. She has her bestie, skye, whom she loves. I am very particular when it comes to my baby and I would not trust another day care facility other than bay rivers. And can I just say, as careful and considerate that these staff memeber can be we all need to remember these are animals with whom they wrestle and play with each other. A few scratches and markings are literally no big deal that is how animals play. If you don't like it, keep your dog separate from other animals. All the employees are amazing and very friendly.

I cannot say enough good things about these folks. Our pug is in a wheelchair so there are some challenges in caring for him. But the staff at Bay Rivers were so wonderful and attentive to all of his needs. He didn't even want to leave when I picked him up. I cannot recommend this facility enough! We will absolutely be back.

I would never take my dog anywhere Elsa. The team truly puts passions and hard work into the care of the animals. I feel like when I leave my girl she is safe and well taken care of which is not how I have felt in other locations such as petsuites and care a lot. Don’t take our word just visit and you’ll see the true efforts that are put into the best pet care.

Bay Rivers is great, we love sending our puppy there! It makes him so happy to get to play with the other dogs and the staff takes good care of him. We will definitely be sending him back!

Under new management, Bay Rivers Boarding and Day Care is far above its competitors. I love the care and concern the staff shows the dogs. I love that my shy little girl now plays with the big boys and interacts as a dog. I love that I can trust my pup with Brandon, Alyssa, and all the staff. These people know and love dogs. Your pup will benefit from their care. They always have something fun planned and take pictures of all the dogs in their care. Join the fun at Bay Rivers Boarding and Day Care!

If my dog could write this review, she would say this is "the bestest place ever." The staff is amazing and take amazing care of the dogs. They send the best report cards, which are very informative and thoughtful. They take the most awesome pictures and create a great atmosphere. In addition to the socialization my dog receives, she also benefits from the training they provide.

First day for my dog today. I have nothing but amazing things to say! Kylie (I believe that was her name) was super nice and helpful during check in! Explained stuff perfectly for me! The gentleman that called me at 11am was also super informative on how my baby’s evaluation for daycare went! They even let him stay the rest of the day! When pick up time rolled around, he was still outside. 💙 I could hear his little play barks! 🥰 I expected to be paying for a full day of daycare since he was there from 7am to 4:15pm but I was surprised that there was no charge since it was his eval day! They even told me that he would get a peanut butter kong over lunch for his first day and that made my heart and my husbands heart so happy! We will absolutely continue to use them for daycare and even boarding when it’s needed in the future! 💙

Wow I love these guys! From the moment I did a tour of the facility to the introductions with my pups. Their knowledge, friendliness, their interaction with our dogs has been unmatched. We have a very nervous rescue and this team took their time and allowed her to settle. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my furbabies Shanon & Jeremy Johnson, Journey Home Realty, LLC | eXp Realty

Update Jan 2023: They are not at the same level as before after reopening. One of the reasons I brought my pups here is that their were knowledgeable trainers incorporated into the daycare. I mean they would take aggressive dogs. Now they can even handle my 2 boys that came for 2+ years for daycare & boarder. On evaluation they feel they can’t handle my dogs because one is missing an eye and the other is protective of his brother. They used to just separate them into different groups. They didn’t even attempt on the re-evaluation to keep them together. This only means staffing isn’t adequate and/or the training from off leash isn’t good. Either way if you used to bring your pup here know they can’t handle normal dog behavior. Disappointed they were wonderful sad to see there just no good places in the Hampton roads area. Only positive is the place is still nice & the staff were polite. I can’t say enough good things about Bay Rivers! I took my boys in for an evaluation & play day (and since have boarded them multiple nights)! The staff was knowledgeable about dogs and their interactions. They even took extra time to get my little guy settled in when he was being a little fiery and overprotective of his brother! I highly recommend them!

Bay Rivers Boarding & Daycare’s staff have done an amazing job with my dog Stella! She was very nervous and stand-offish her first few days, as she had previously been with unfamiliar dogs, but the staff were very accommodating and worked with her to help her make new furry friends. Stella now has a great time playing with other dogs of all ages and sizes. The transition I saw from the daily report cards over the course of a week of boarding and daycare was unbelievable! The daily report cards with cute pictures and videos of play time along with a description of how the day went are great! She went from trying to hide in the corner at first to now playing with the dogs while also begging for all of pets and belly rubs from the staff. The staff truly love all of the dogs there and work hard to make sure the dogs all have a good time. Stella now loves seeing all of her friends when she goes into daycare and comes home worn out ready to snuggle after a fun day of playing! Highly recommended Bay Rivers for both both Boarding and Daycare!

Crystal is awesome and is always so accommodating! She always shares so much knowledge with me about my dogs and things I can do to improve their wellbeing. I love how much thought she puts into her work, she always does amazing and makes sure my doggies are comfortable.

WARNING!!!! I hired Crystal to come to my home to clean the litter box, feed and check on my two cats while I was on vacation. Crystal shut all the doors in my home locking one of my cats in my bedroom without food, water or access to a litter box. My friend, whom was asked to check on the cats on a day Crystal was not hired to do so, discovered my cat meowing loudly in my house that stunk of cat urine. This was on the fourth day of my vacation. Crystal admitted to shutting the doors on Monday and claims that she did not hear the cat meowing on Wednesday. The cat was discovered on Thursday. Please DO NOT HIRE this business!!

If I could give crystal 10 stars I would! She was amazing with our 7 week old husky. She also trimmed our puppies nails for free and gave her a wash as well. Crystal has an amazing Facebook page as well with amazing tips and tricks for training dogs and funny jokes. Also once we got her back she wasn't biting us as much so our puppy being around the other dogs really helped her develop as a puppy. She had a multitude of different breeds so that helped our husky get used to other dogs of various sizes. Next time we come back to camp in the area we will definitely be using her! She is amazing with dogs and puppies!

I can not recommend Crystal's Complete Dog Service enough. She took excellent care of my dog. She even sent me daily updates and pictures to put my mind at ease. He looked like he was having so much fun. Great communication, great service, great person..Next time I go out of town I can be sure my dog is in great hands.

Took my dog to her doggie daycare. Received a phone call from a lady that found my dog running loose on Rt 175, almost got hit several times. Lady kept my dog safe n sound at her house. I went to Crystals to pick up my dog even though I knew he wasn't there....and Crystal had "no knowledge" that he had gotten out 1 hour ago. Her lack of responsibility for watching my dog is despicable. She should be ashamed of herself for allowing this to happen. I would never ever recommend her to have a doggie daycare business.

Crystal took care of both my dogs and my 30 chickens, while we were away at Disney for a week. She sent photos of the dogs, she was in constant contact with us for the dogs and the chickens. She came over late at night when the power went out to make sure that the chickens had heat and that the heat was back on in the house. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is in need of a pet service.

I stayed at the KOA near Crystal and needed dog care to go to the beach. I have 3 dogs!! The KOA gave me her number and basically, Awesome place for your dogs to stay! Easy to communicate with and have dog care. I called to drop dogs off for the day and immediately said yes and had the dogs there within no time. Cut the dogs nail and also washed with her awesome shampoo! Then she also was able to keep them over night! Very flexible and loves dogs! I felt very comfortable leaving them there! Highly recommend!

I left my XL dog with Crystal Kellenberger this weekend and i have a couple things to say about her and the way she runs her business. First of all, Max has never been dropped off at a kennel ever. This was his first time going somewhere where he would be with a bunch of other dogs. I was extremely nervous to say the least, I mean with a dog Max's size and smarts, if you dont know what youre doing, literally anything could happen. Well guess what... Crystal handled my dog from the moment we got there with such AMAZING expertise and professionalism, she was welcoming to Max while at the same time establishing herself as leader. I will be bringing him to her everytime i go to the shore and i recommend her dog business to everybody. Thank you, Crystal for taking touch good care of my pup. Crystal's Complete Dog Care Service

Mrs. Crystal is fantastic. I came down for pony penning with my 7 year old rat Terrier. My fiancé and I planned to go onto Assateague but needed someone to watch our little guy while we were gone. She was very accommodating on such short notice. Highly recommended to anyone with a pet traveling to Chincoteague and needs a loving caring doggy sitter. Thanks again!

Crystal took great care of my horses,dogs,and cats. I’ll use her again for sure . She texted me ,when she had questions , kept in touch to let me know they were ok, and even sent me pics while away. :) she did everything as I asked . I’m very pleased with her services . Thank you crystal !

Great Place to take your kind, caring jus good folks that enjoy ALL animals. Thanks for taking care of my Pups, see ya when next vacation comes up.

We feel these people take good care of our little dog. They are good communicators. They keep the facility clean. The price is reasonable.

I love this place, my dog has been there a few times for daycare and now she will be going everyday since I started a job in the area. I highly recommend these folks!

Very good place, dogs always happy and smelling good when we pick them up!

My dog is always happy going in and happy when picking up. Owners and workers are exceptional.

Took my fur baby for a week and he seemed to love it. People were great and called and knew who I was and which pet I talked about when I called.

They take very good care of my dog and their fair on there prices

Alwaya a pleasure to take our dogs here. Friendly, but professional and show a true affection for the dogs

First time, great staff, service and food great craft beer selection

They are closing their doors after July 2023 :(

The team at K9 Heeling are completely devoted to their craft and to the dogs they train. They are experts at teaching both dogs and their owners. I would highly recommend them for boarding, training, and even for virtual training sessions. We have done all of the above with great outcomes.

My 10 month old pup had an awesome 3-week training experience at K9 Heeling with Sam W. He has learned so much to improve his behavior. He has learned to walk with me and not pulling me to where he wants to go. He has learned to sit and wait for my ok to enter or exit a doorway. He’s much more relaxed and happy these days. He and I continue to work to implement the awesome training he received at K9 Heeling and the other training such as “off leash”, etc.

We have used K9 healing from puppy training through adult boarding. Our dog is always excited to go and happy when we pick her up. We love the daily instagram posts so we can watch her enjoy playtime. It’s like summer camp for dogs!

K9 Heeling has been the best thing that has happened for our dog Maui and us. She went through their 3 week training program when she was 8 months old and came home a very well behaved pup. She now loves to go to day play where she gets to play all day with her friends while also receiving group training. We highly recommend K9 heeling for their wonderful staff and training abilities Rob and Val Lawrence

Our experience with K 9 Heeling has always been exceptional. Our dog Rip has had training, refresher trainer, boarding, grooming and he loves it! Mitch and everyone, knows our dog and they love when he visits. We will continue to use K9 Heeling and have recommended their services to others. Dave

Mitch and his crew are so awesome. We live the travel baseball life and I never have any concerns leaving our dogs here. Our Layla has some special needs and they are so patient with her and I see improvements in her when we return, even when she is just there for boarding not even refresher training. Look how content she is and how happy Lucky is.

K9 Heeling has truly been a game-changer for us! Our experience with them has completely transformed our relationship with our beloved dog. Thanks to their exceptional training, we now have more quality time to play and enjoy each other's company. Before we started working with K9 Heeling, Bowser used to be quite unruly on a leash, constantly pulling and tugging. But now, thanks to their expert guidance, he doesn't even require his training collar when walking off leash. It's remarkable how much progress he has made! Not only has K9 Heeling's training program improved Bowser's behavior, but it has also boosted our confidence as dog owners. We feel more equipped and capable in handling any situation that may arise. Moreover, their training has fostered a strong foundation of trust and cooperation between us and Bowser, making our bond stronger than ever. We cannot express enough gratitude to the K9 Heeling team. Their expertise and dedication have truly made a positive impact on our lives. We highly recommend their services to anyone seeking professional dog training. Thank you, K9 Heeling, for everything you've done for us and Bowser!

We have a timid dog who doesn't take to every canine he meets. Mitch and his staff understands this and matches his playmates perfectly. Recently, we had the opportunity to be a part of a day "PAWliday Party" This gave us so much reassurance that Jack truly loves this place, and so do we.

I don’t trust just anyone with my dog, but I totally trust K9 Heeling. My dog went thru their training and the outcome was great. I have also boarded my dog there a couple of times in the last 2 months and it is comforting to know he is being taken good care of. I would definitely suggest them

The change in Lars, my tweenie dachshund, since he started attending DayPlay has been amazing! He was very reactive to other dogs -- unless they were dachshunds. It was hard to take him on walks because he would bark and pull on his leash when he saw other dogs on the street. He is no longer reactive with smaller dogs, and wants to make new friends. We're still working on his reaction to larger dogs in the neighborhood, but he is improving. Thank you K9 Heeling for making our lives with Lars more enjoyable!

I highly recommend coming here for all of your animal needs. Bonnie is such a lovable, kind person and she makes your time at Eastern Shore Pets so enjoyable. She can answer many questions and can point you in the right direction. The shop is usually bustling with lots to choose from. I love this store!

Such a nice place. It smelt like a pet store, so be prepared when you walk-in. The staff was extremely amazingly kind! And helpful! Not to mention very knowledgeable. I enjoyed my visit to this pretty shop.

Owner was rude as hell. Honestly prices were high. If that fish would have made it from salisbury in this heat I'd went to petsmart her stank attitude! Her pets are not loved at all thought about a guinea pig for my son they were so scared and un friendly I was afraid they would bite him.

i got a male rat about 6 months according to the woman who told me. He was invested with mites and had a crooked jaw with over grown teeth going into the roof and bottom of his mouth. The woman who sold us the rat didn’t tell us abt any of these things.

The worst pet store I've ever seen. They need to be shut down. They have all the animals in containers way too small. They have 6 foot snakes in their in containers that r too small for a 1 foot snake. They could at least have the decency to put them in 10 gallon tank. But they're too ignorant to do even that. They have like 50 mice in small 10 gallon tanks where they can't even move without walking all over each other. U can't even see the bottom they're so packed. They're also extremely over priced. There r people sitting in jail right now for animal cruelty that took better care of their pets than this store. The owner needs to be behind bars. Not only r they doing something horrible, but every person that walks in their thinks that that is okay behavior

Stopped in on a road trip and picked up the most adorable nuzzle toy for our Boston terrier. The owner and (maybe?) her daughter were so sweet! They looked at pictures of our pup and even gave us a treat or two to take home—thank you!!

I moved here to the shore almost 20 years ago. I've been utilizing Bonnie's shop for all of my pets care needs since. Never in my life have I encountered such a compassionate store owner. She offers a wealth of fantastic advice for novice / journeyman pet owners and I've often seen her go out of the way to help out older customers who may have issues say moving heavier items to their vehicles. I honestly wish more businesses would takes the initiative she does. It's a shame I can't rate this place any higher than five stars.

I love this place so much, i never met a pet store owner as nice as that one. i got all my mice from there and they are all doing so well and are very healthy. if there was a pet store that i would call the best it would be this one.

Always helps.me.find what I am looking for!

Great and local place close to home. Shop owner is amazing! Got my second guinea from here three or four years ago.
