Cat Sitters in Saint Luke, VA

Our dog was very happy here. She can be a bit skittish around new places, so when she pulled on her leash to head back to the kennel, we knew all was going to well. Very accommodating and friendly staff. Thank you for making our trip a special one!

Dropped our pup off for daycare while we visited the caverns! All of the staff was friendly and helpful. They were even able to squeeze our boy in for pawdicure during his stay. Will definitely use again next time we’re in town.

We boarded our German Shepherd while we were visiting Luray. She loved her stay and we were able to get her a bath before we loaded up to go home. Awesome owners. Your dog is gonna love it.

Now under new owners. Been using these great people and awesome caretakers to care for our pet dogs for years! Best local care there is!!! They care, solid staff, excellent hours and good prices to boot. Nothing has changed, still s solid 10.

We were visiting Shenandoah National park this weekend and looking for somewhere to leave our dogs. I always nervous to leave them new places but mystic had great reviews. They definitely lived up to their reviews! They even groomed one of my pups while she was there and she looks amazing. They were well taken care of, happy when we picked them up. They were easy to communicate with, gave me updates when I called to check on them, played with them, etc.. would highly recommend to anyone considering. They definitely care about dogs and want to make them feel comfortable during their stay.

Love this place! We’ve been taking our dogs here to get groomed for a few months now and have nothing but great things to say. They always get us in the schedule quickly, we don’t have to book a month or more in advance like our previous groomer. The staff is very friendly too, I feel comfortable leaving my dogs with them. And we love the haircuts! They always give you the exact cut you ask for, no surprises here when you pick up! 10/10

Dogs were safe and healthy when we picked them up. They obviously had a great time and we're well cared for during our trip. We would 100% use them again.

They were very nice when I went to get my new best friend Jenny groomed 😊 …

My Pepper is treated like a princess at Mystic. Lena and Gareth always go out of their way to accommodate. These are friendly, salt of the earth hard working folks when love animals. Professional and lovely results. Have brought my pooches here for years and they never disappoint. Happy and clean doggie!

I was nervous dropping my dog off for her first time away from me but she did great. She's very anxious. I love the care they gave her and how they took the time to figure out what worked best for Fawn. I'll definitely be using them again when needed. It feels great to find a place you can trust.

Wonderfull place to board your dog or cat when you’re traveling. Our golden retriever Randy for sure felt like home and cared for with love. He was excited to see us when we came back to pick him up but also looked very happy and must have had some good time with the other furry friends staying there. We will for sure be happy to come back to have him stay again! Thank you team Just Like Home Kennels!

Looking for a great place to keep your dog or cat while you are away? Look no further! This place is very clean and the staff are super - they give your fur baby nice attention, interact with them as if they were their own, and we always have peace of mind when dropping ours off. These folks have been helping us for over 10 years and every time, not only have we have been very happy, but our pet has been as well! Charlie, Alex, and their family and employees are wonderful with all their guests and we are grateful to have such a place to take our special family member there when we need a place that makes them feel like home!

The comfort I feel knowing my not so little fur ball is being cared for as if he was with us, is PRICELESS!! Thank God for such caring folks! My baby stayed for two weeks, which was difficult to do to begin with. When I picked him up, I could see how comfortable he was by his behavior! He didn't even have to tell me!! For nine years, each time we have had to travel, my hesitation has always been Enzo's proper care. We have even tried taking him with us a couple of times. He wasn't crazy about that! Although, I have no doubt he was fed and walked in the few places I have had to leave Enzo, at Almost Home Kennels, I know he is loved!! Thank you so much for being there!! Enzo's very grateful family

I have been bringing my dogs and cats to Just Like Home for 14 years now and have never been disappointed or unsatisfied with the care they receive. They go above and beyond to treat your pet as one of their own and make them feel at home. I brought my 3 cats once to stay in a bedroom and pulled in with a car full of cat beds, scratchers, 3 crates, food etc and they didn't even blink. I can't imagine taking my pets anywhere else!

I have never boarded my dogs before and was a little nervous since I had a beagle, a mini-doxie, who has residual neurological weakness in his hind legs from previously being paralyzed when he was younger, and a five-month old, HUGE shepherd-mix puppy (a/k/a horse lol!). Not only were they well taken care of while I was gone, but also whenever I requested an update on how the dogs were doing I received a very timely response along with pictures to ease my mind. I also loved that the dogs were able to stay together in a doggy bedroom in the house so it really was just like home. The huge fenced-in yard was perfect for them to run in. I really appreciate Just Like Home Kennels taking such good care of my dogs and especially putting up with Sadie (the puppy/horse), who is a huge bundle of energy! - The Kremer Family

My dog Miloh has separation anxiety but absolutely loves Just like Home kennels, he never wants to leave when we pick him up. Charlie and his staff are always accommodating. We love that the dogs are able to have time to run around outside in real grass, a previous kennel we found kept the animals on a concrete run. The pandemic has stopped us from traveling but we know when we start again that Just Like Home is the only place we will leave our dogs.

Very nice people and family that run this dog kennel,I’m very impressed by the cleanliness and overall care they provided for our ace we will definitely continue to use your services also fyi thank you for being honest as well about the pricing too!!!!!! Ace is happy as much as we are thank you again so much for everything

We have used "Just Like Home" twice in the past few months and we cannot express how happy we are. We used to board our dog Stella at another facility, but witnessed her lethargic and depressed after one of her stays. She was very dehydrated and I noticed they did not give her any of her toys or treats we brought for her. We decided to look for a new place and luckily stumbled upon "Just Like Home." Although hesitant to board her kennel initially (I imagine from her previous boarding experiences), she was as happy as could be when we picked her up a few days later. She was loving to the staff, excitedly running around the fenced-in yard, and was not lethargic or unhappy. We trust "Just Like Home" completely with our sweet girl and know that she is in safe hands whenever we have to leave town.

Charlie, Kim & the boys are GREAT people. They take care of your pet as it was their own. If you want a compassionate kennel, Just Like Home is the place

Fantastic place for your dog! Charlie and the staff are fantastic and so nice. They always take care of our dogs.

This boarding facility is very close to home for me so I thought it was a good pick. I booked online for my pets and accidentally got the dates wrong so I called to see if they could change it to the correct dates for me. The owner answered the phone and was nice enough to do so but she did come off a little rude. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and asked if I could visit the facility before boarding my dogs. It was the day before Thanksgiving and she warned me they may not have time. totally understandable. I let her know I’d still check in. It comes to the day of the visit and I also brought my wife to make sure she was also comfortable with our pets staying here. The facility is clean and looks great on the outside. We walk in and it is also clean inside. I let the older lady (assuming this is the owner) at the desk know I was wondering if we could get a walk through. She and the older man sitting next to her immediately shake their head saying today was not a good day and included that they were leaving soon. Mind you: We arrive shortly after opening and there wasn’t a lot going on from what we could see. The walk through took less than 5mins…… The facility is clean. The employee that gave us the tour was nice but the spaces for the animals are advertised as luxury and being from the city they resemble closer animal shelter kennels. The owners overall attitude is the reason we would not board here ever. Please go in and tour the facility. You’ll understand my review when you do.

I reached out regarding an online reservation on a holiday weekend, wanting to confirm if they actually had availability or not. I was immediately greeting with a young lady who was extremely unpleasant and seemed to lack customer service phone skills. She picked up the call and did not provide her name or any detail other than “Hello, Creature Comfort.” I processed to introduce myself and explain why I was calling. When I asked if they actually had space for my reservation that was booked online, she gave me a stern one worded “No.” She maybe said 3 words total on that call, I was extremely taken back by the lack of professionalism during that brief interaction. Not a very great first impression from a business stand point by any means. I would not feel comfortable leaving my pets at a facility where they are not able to answer a customer call with respect.

Creature Comfort is the ONLY place in VA that I will Let take care of my baby, Leo. Tammy and Terry are the absolute best and go above and beyond to ensure your baby is treated as theirs. Tammy does an amazing job training as well! You won’t be disappointed 💜 …

My dog stayed for four days. He seemed perfectly chilled coming back home not stressed or anxious to get out. This was his first kennel stay. He's 11 months. The owner gave me a tour and I paid for some extra play time. The facility looked and smelled clean. I'd return if required.👍 …

My dogs have trained there, board there, and go to doggy daycare. I love the staff. I love the facility. The best

Great place to board pets. They took care of our cats and dogs like family. It is hard to find a place that takes such good care of the animals. Would recommend to anyone needing animal boarding.

If I could give Creature Comfort 6 stars I would! They take such good care of our two large dogs. We have been taking our dogs here for over 4 years. We pass a lot of other kennels along the way during our 60 mile drive to drop off our babies, but we know they are in the best hands while we are away.

Tammy and her team have been doing an amazing job of taking care of my 2 Rottweilers since they were puppies. One has developed epilepsy over the years. They have no problem caring for him and administering his meds. It means a lot to have a place we can trust to care for our pets when we are away. Thanks to you all.

Creature Comfort Inn is 1.5 hours away from us and WELL worth the trip to leave our dog. We have boarded our dog with them twice now. When we picked up our dog this time, the owner took the time to note minor behavior differences she saw in our pup between his first and second boarding. The Inn offers many services for the dogs each day for an additional fee (group play, snuggle time, extra walks, etc) that we plan to take advantage of next time! You can tell these folks love the pups they care for.

Large property in a country setting. great area for my dog to run! They took wonderful care of my dog during the week he was boarded there. they provide a lot of services. Kennels were clean, and a good size. Will be returning with Boo for daycare and training!

Kenneled my dogs. Went to pick up my dogs, and they said they'd bring out the leftover food. Ended up bringing me a bag of dried food when I brought in cans. After finally bringing out the right cans, there were 3 extra cans, so they weren't feeding them every day, if at all; since they can't even get the food right. Then had to ask for my stuff I brought for them back, and they said they were washing the blanket because they had an accident. I told them I brought in multiple toys and clothes. They went to the back to check again, and said they actually did have it all. I asked them to bring out all the stuff and my dogs separate because IDK how I'm supposed to walk 2 dogs to my car, carry all the extra food, and a 13 gallon trashbag. Had to complain to the clerk a couple times before she offered to walk the dogs to my truck while I carried all the stuff. If this is just checkout, IDK how they managed the dogs. My baby girl is much more lean than when I picked her up

Their name says it all! Polite, experienced professionals in every way. Our dog Bonnie loves staying here; she needs a little extra attention and the staff always accommodates.

I come to this place and wash 4 of my dogs here. The easy in and out is what I like about this place. Safety & Cleanliness is important to me. The staff is always super nice and friendly.

We come in semi-regularly for grooming and unscheduled nail trims. They do a wonderful job with my long-haired chihuahua. He always comes home excited and and smelling amazing. We have had great grooms every time we came. They also require vaccination records, so we feel safe that our dog won't be around other dogs with kennel cough, and other harmful diseases. And the staff is friendly and efficient.

Brought my dog here for their self pet wash station. The folks here are friendly and helpful, and my typically standoffish around new people pup was social and greeted the girl there. Which to me says a lot. The place is very clean, and they sell some chew treats and toys here too. The pet wash station includes a pro blow dryer to get thick fluffy coats fully dry and looking their best. We would definitely recommend this place, and I'm sure we'll be back again.

We took our 18 year old cat to get her nails done and we have also taken our Golden retriever to be groomed and they to a great job and are very personable too!

Dogs had a great time visiting. They can't wait to get more dirt on them to come back.

I've used PAB for decades, they treat Corgis like they are family.

They took wonderful care of our Skipper. She tends to make herself sick when we're not around. But this boarding no phone calls! She was happy, we were happy. She acted like she'd been on a great adventure! Love Professional All-Breed Groomer, Daycare, and Boarding. I'd highly recommended!

This bath was the best! No cold hose water from the backyard, and I could step right into the tub! Mom scrubbed me down in toasty warm water and blew out my coat with the high powered drying snake! (I do need a Happy Hoodie for next time though) It was AMAZING! Would definitely bathe here again! ~ Carly 🐾 …

My girl Luna loves Happy Hounds!! She’s so excited to come and see all of her friends. Everyone who works there is so positive, welcoming, and really care for your pups! She comes home with all of her energy out. They also post pictures everyday which I love. I never have to worry about her while I’m at work!

My baby, Rickey, loves Happy Hounds! I thought he would go a couple of days a week but it has turned into 6 days a week and the occasional boarding. He is a high energy, blue heeler, and the evenings of him just sleeping are worth every single visit! Marcie is so kind as is every employee at Happy Hounds. I personally think my favorite part is how excitedly he is greeted with “Hi Rickey!” at drop off in the mornings. Doesn’t everybody want to take their fur babies somewhere where they know they’re going to be loved, cared for, and thoroughly exhausted when they’re picked up. 🤗

Such a great doggy day care. Zemo LOVES to play, so we had to try this place out because it had been recommended by a few friends. We've been taking Zemo to Happy Hounds for about a year now and it's been an awesome way for him to socialize off leash and get some energy out. The folks who work at Happy Hounds are fantastic with Zemo and we are so thankful for this place. PS - Happy Hounds often take lots of photos during the day to share on the Facebook page, which is really fun to see at the end of the day. Here are just a few I've saved. :)

My dog, Jamie, absolutely loves going to Happy Hounds! When we say 'do you want to go to daycare' she immediately runs the door and sits there wagging her tail until we are ready to take her. Jamie is a very skittish dog, and needs some patience/grace until she gets comfortable - which is exactly what the Happy Hounds staff gave her. I now see her extremely happy to interact with the staff and other dogs which tells me she is treated well and happy. The dogs get a lot of playtime and Jamie always comes home extremely tired - you know what they say: a tired dog is a HAPPY dog. We are very thankful for Happy Hounds and would highly recommend!

Wonderful daycare and they are great at doggie pictures!

Happy Hounds Doggie Day Care is amazing, and Marcie has an exceptional knowledge of dogs. My dog Spencer has been going for about two years, and when I got my second dog, Murphy, a little over a year ago, he also began attending. They're both balls of energy at home without daycare, but going to daycare at least once a week, let's them release a ton of energy and makes them much calmer at home. I highly recommend Happy Hounds to anyone with a dog considering day care!

Happy hounds is quite possibly heaven on earth for dogs. I’ve been bringing my stupidly energetic dog there for roughly six months and she LOVES it! She’s excited to get there in the mornings and hates leaving in the afternoons. Marcie (the owner) is an amazing person who truly has an unparalleled love for dogs. For those worried about the 2 bad reviews, don’t. Marcie, along with all of her employees, are the truest of dog lovers. Lots of love for the happy hounds crew!

Such a great place! Bodie absolutely LOVES going here and playing all day. He comes back exhausted which is no small feat for our energetic boy!

Happy hounds is a great local business that excels in its area of service. The dogs that go here get a stimulating and exciting environment. The staff are kind and treat the dogs well and Marcie has a tremendous working knowledge of canine psychology and mannerisms. Your dog loves Happy Hounds, he or she just doesn't know it yet. Come on down to the compound, you won't regret it and your dog will thank you.

We moved to Alaska and no place compares to happy hounds. I wish we’d move back just for this place. Our dog who was super scared of most places absolutely LOVED going. He always came home so tired and content. Their daily photos and videos still make my day.

I am a very protective dog mom. I am serious when I say my dog is my everything. Paws of hope has been fantastic. This is the first place I have felt actually comfortable to leave my baby there. They send me text updates (and pictures) and answer all of my questions. They truly go above and beyond for my dog. I cannot recommend them enough. They really treat your dog like their own. My dog is so exciting to go there each time. I can go on vacation comfortably knowing that he is well taken care of.

As a first time puppy mom, I was SO anxious about leaving my little one home while my fiancé and I were at work. Thanks to Amy and John, they alleviated all my stress!!! Both Amy and John provide helpful and caring advice, along with their genuine interactions. With the home check-ins, Amy will text you great updates and AWESOME pictures of her and your fur baby. With my fiancé and I’s schedule being up in the air sometimes, Amy does a FANTASTIC job by touching base with you and confirming the upcoming days! I definitely recommend Paws of Hope!

I cannot give Paws of Hope enough praise for the work that they do. The exercise and socialization that my dog gets is incredible. Their experience and knowledge of all types of dogs makes them a perfect place for your gentle lap dog or hyper husky. My dog could not be in better hands while I travel.

Our first time boarding our sweet dog (Nyla) while taking a trip 4 hours away. It was the best experience we could have had! John & his team kept us updated how she was doing. Even posted videos & pics of her having the time of her life! They were even able to cut her nails!!! Which Nyla never lets anyone touch her nails! Highly recommend Paws of Hope!

If I could give 'Aunt' Amy and 'Uncle' John 10/5 stars I would! Amy and John are the nicest, down to earth people you will ever meet and quickly felt like a part of the family! We send our two dogs to them when we go out of town and know they are in the best of hands! Amy is wonderful with communicating and paying attention to my dogs. Sending us updates throughout the day with photos of the pups. The dogs have the best of time with them and we know they are in great care. John and Amy provide a lot of services, including pick-up and drop-off, and nail trims! We've been very grateful for these services, having to schedule a last minute drop-off and appreciated them being so accommodating, it was worth every cent! I appreciate that Amy took the time to schedule a 'meet and greet' with me and our furry family before their first stay. Amy and John were recommended to us from friends and I was very nervous having my dogs away, but Amy assured me with her experience and set-up that the dogs were safe and in a clean yard! I cannot recommend Amy and John enough, I love supporting small business owners and you can really sleep soundly at night knowing your dogs are in the great care of John and Amy!

John and Amy are super sweet and friendly people! They make you feel like you have known them your whole life when you are there! Highly recommend trusting their business.

John and Amy take great care of our pups! They know each dog individually and give personalized attention to everyone. Our dogs enjoy playing all day long with the other dogs!

These guys are absolutely fantastic! They have gone above and beyond for me and my pups without a second thought. Affordable prices with staff that truly cares for your babies--what else could you ask for? Highly recommend using this place!

Sophie just LOVES Amy and Paws of Hope. She wakes me up every weekday morning ready to go and comes home happy!! Her demeanor has definitely changed for the better. I'm so happy we chose this alternative to crating at home alone all day!!!

I really recommend Paws of Hope. They took such a good care of my four legs babies. One thing that really noticed was one of my dogs didn’t let any stranger pet him before. And now he will let other kids to pet him. 🤩 Wow he got more social. Thank you. …

Katie is absolutely the best!!! I had never left my pets with anyone other than family. I have two golden retrievers, a skittish, shy cat, and a beta fish. Katie came to my home for a meet and greet prior to the dates I needed a pet sitter. My two golden retrievers took to her right away. I knew immediately she would be perfect. She stayed in my home while I was away for my son’s wedding. She would update me with text messages and photos on how all the pets were doing throughout each day. I was able to enjoy my son’s wedding and never once did I worry about my pets. When I returned home, she had left very detailed reports cards for each pet for each day she cared for them. She also left my pets gifts, along with a thank you note. She did things that I did not even expect of her, such as taking out the trash and washing the bed linens and towels she used while staying in my home. I will absolutely always call Katie whenever I need a pet sitter. She is punctual, friendly, very detailed, experienced, professional, polite, and wonderful with the pets she cares for.

“Katie has been a Godsend as I recently moved to the area and my new work schedule makes it hard to get my dog proper exercise and stimulation. In a very short period, Katie has endeared herself to my pup, who now perks up whenever I tell her “it’s a Miss Katie day” when I leave for work! Katie goes above and beyond to communicate, provide insight and observations of how my girl is doing, sends pictures and provides detailed updates (including a report card) on their activities together. It comforts me to know that I have a professional like Katie who provides so much care and attention to my dog while I’m away. I can’t recommend her services enough.”

Katie is incredible! She is kind, thorough, attentive, responsive and animals love her. Plus she makes planning and paying super easy (appreciate being able to use Zelle or Venmo)! I contacted Katie with a last minute request to take care of my Mom's cat while she was in the hospital. She responded quickly and was even willing to adjust her schedule to accommodate my request. The cat is super skittish - but came out to say hello to Katie. She's an animal whisper. :) She took great care of the cat and even went above & beyond by purchasing more litter when I was running low. Thank you Katie for being so professional and so wonderful with animals!

WOW! is all I can say about the incredible care and service my pup (Sophie) received this summer when Katie stayed in our house to dog-sit for a week. Sophie is an older dog who does not get along well with other dogs and cannot be crated. She's a little quirky and we needed someone who understood her. During the meet and greet, Sophie fell in love with Katie- nothing but tail wags and kisses; it was clear Katie was able to speak Sophie's language. While we were gone, Katie sent us pictures of the pup. Sophie always looked happy. When we returned home after a week, Katie had left daily report cards for Sophie's activities each day we were gone. When we arrived home, the house was immaculate and Sophie was a happy girl- but she would still go into the guest room and look for her new best friend, Katie, for a couple of days after we returned. Katie cared for Sophie and our house as if they were her own and we could not recommend her more or give her high enough praise. She went way above and beyond what we expected and we couldn't be more grateful. Be prepared for your pet to be treated like royalty when Katie comes to take care of them- HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We are so happy that we found Katie for help with our two labs. We needed her support during the day because we ended up with a couple work days that were too long to leave them. Katie was amazing! She sent pictures and videos, left adorable doggie report cards, and the dogs LOVE her! She is super professional and has a wonderful attention to little details that make the experience extra special. We are so thankful to find someone that we can count on for help to make our dogs’ lives better when we can’t be there. We give her the highest recommendation! We are excited to have her back soon!

I moved to the area a couple of years ago and struggled to find a pet sitter that I could trust to take care of my fur babies (with special needs) while I was on vacation. I am thrilled that I found Katie. She is absolutely the BEST! Not only did she keep me up to date on the day to day goings on, she kept a daily log to track all medicines she administered and wrote a daily report card for each of my pets. On top of that, she went above and beyond with little things, that together were big things. I highly recommend Katie!

BEST PET SITTER EVER!!!!!! Katie did so much for my two kitties for the week we were away; from daily photos/videos and updates, to even throwing a little 4th of July themed birthday party for the kitties!! I have quite high expectations for anyone watching my babies, and she exceeded them entirely. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and can truly see she cares for every animal that falls under her care. She’s the best of the best!!!!

Katie is amazing! She’s walks my puppy during the day so he can get some energy out and get some exercise while I’m at a work and let me just say he looks SO SO SOOOO happy in all of the pictures she sent! I love how she sends me picture of him through out the walk and a report of how the walk went! I HIGHLY recommend Katie’s Pet Sitting Services!

Katie was ‘a dog whisperer’ with our elderly dog. Recommend her unequivocably. She house/dog sat. All was perfect. She left cute and informative ‘report cards’ detailing our dog daily activities.

Katie cares about your pets and has a ton of knowledge on how to best care and interact with your pets. She’s super awesome and goes above and beyond.
