Pet Sitters in Horse Landing, VA

We recently boarded our six-year-old Mini golden doodle and five month old Mini Bernad doodle. Needless to say they had the absolute best time! We received daily photos of all the dogs playing. Highly recommend!

Our normal boarder was unavailable and we were referred to Pawsitively Purr-fect through the grapevine. Our dog loves other dogs but has been reactive with some other boarders, so finding a new option at the last minute was a challenge. Jacki & JR were the best we’ve worked with, no contest, and have become our new go-to for boarding & daycare. They checked his veterinary records, showed us their home setup (which was a substantial improvement compared to our previous boarder), trialed him through daycare for a couple of days, and then kept him for a full week. They kept up his requested diet, gave him plenty of playtime and rest, and sent plenty of photos and necessary updates throughout his stay. We went for boarding in a pinch and left as new clients excited to bring him back for daycare. I cannot recommend Pawsitively Purr-fect highly enough. Don’t hesitate, just go.

Not only is the owner Jacki so, so sweet and was willing to answer any and all questions I had without hesitation, but they also take the time out of their day to send photos frequently of your pets for you to see what a great time they’re having! My pup has come home happy and worn out every time she has stayed for daycare. I oftentimes feel like she misses it on the days she doesn’t go! 😂. We haven’t boarded with them yet, but have a couple of trips lined up for the summer and have full faith that Jacki and her crew will take great care of our fur baby. 10/10 recommend!

We finally found a daycare/boarding place that we can give 5 stars to! Jax absolutely LOVES going to Jackie's! As soon as we turn on her street, he is pacing the car, ready to get out and go play with his friends! Jax barks at everyone but when Jacki or JR come to the car to get him, no barking! He eagerly jumps in their arms, ready to go! The photos sent twice daily is an added bonus! Jax is our baby, and we can leave him with Jacki and JR and feel 100% comfortable! Highly recommend!!

Dropped our 1 year old lab off for Memorial Day weekend for a three day stay. Lizzy was very reluctant to go in as all the dogs were carrying on and the gentleman who took Lizzy in had to sort of force her into the kennel area. When we came to pick her up, we had to kinda force her into the car as she didn't want to leave!!!! LOL. We received numerous pictures each day and a couple of videos that reflected how well kept the dogs are in their care. They were very communicable, pleasant and we will absolutely use them any and every time we need boarding for our lab!

I was thrilled to find this pet boarding near us for a recent trip. Having a meet and greet with the owner, Jacki, to see the facility and let my dog run around put me at ease. There is a large indoor facility lined with kennels connected to a fenced yard with astroturf and toys. I like that the dogs have free reign to go inside and outside as they please all day (except a few breaks in their kennels to eat, rest, etc.) Jacki was always very responsive via text, and she sent pictures every day (usually 2-3x/day) all the dogs around the yard. My dog came home tired, but content. I will be using Pawsitively Purr-fect in the future.

Amazing!! I really have no other words for Pawsitively purr fect pet sitting. Jackie took such good care of my dog while we were gone! My fur baby is diabetic and needs insulin twice a day. We were updated multiple times a day with Autumns status. I have a hard time trusting anyone to care for her but Jackie was amazing!

My dog, Penny boarded here and had the time of her life! I loved the daily pics and knowing that she was safe and happy. We will definitely be back! Thank y’all so much!!

My two Golden Doodles absolutely love this place! My husband and I also love how they care for our dogs. When we are on the go.It’s great knowing and seeing my dogs are well taken care of is super comforting!!

A friend referred me to Pawsitively Purr-Fect and I'm so glad she did. I have a senior beagle and needed a place for him to board while on vacation. I was so impressed with the Meet and Greet process and tour. I was grateful for the fact that I was given a tour of the whole facility. It was clean and thoughtfully put together. They had nothing to hide, which made me trust them and feel comfortable about leaving my furbaby in their care. All my questions were answered thoroughly. Booking and paying for services is easy. My dog did great. While he was there, I got regular reports and photos so I knew he was having fun and well looked after. I appreciated their attention to my dog's special needs (and my worries.) All the staff I met was curious and friendly. They took excellent care of my boy and I know he will be a regular visitor now.

Don’t call Rover.. Call Sarah!!! I wish everyone were as reliable as Sarah’s team!! They are always there fur my German Shepherd and 2 kitty kats. My pets even appear younger, happier and very relaxed. My Sheppie is almost 8 and since Sarah’s team has been sitting for them, she is so playful and fun like a puppy!!! I am so grateful for all the time and attention they give.. And the pix they send!!! So creative and fabulous!!!! I feel so fortunate to have found these pet loving people!!!

Sarah and her team have been the best caretakers of our animals! We started out with one puppy and weekly walks and playdates for socialization and exercise. When we added another puppy, we added more walks and playdates. My doggies look forward to their time with Sarah, Monika and all the other excellent caregivers. The pics and commentary on their time away just makes my day!!

I cannot say enough about Sarah Sits-N-Stays! Look no further if you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies! We have been using Sarah's company since moving to Richmond in August 2022 and couldn't be happier. My partner and I have very hectic schedules, but we have never been unable to schedule a daily walk and lunch for our dog and cat (even sometimes at the last minute!). We have also used them for overnight visits during weekends we are away. We have never been concerned and always feel safe knowing Sarah's company is taking care of them. They even send pictures and updates every day summarizing their time together. Our dog Teddy is always happy (as you can see!) and well-exercised when we get home. Even our cat, who is not much of a "people person," has warmed up to the staff. We have had nothing but good experiences with all the walkers/sitters, but I would like to give a special shoutout to Madi who is our main walker. She is AMAZING and Teddy absolutely LOVES her! Seriously... look no further if you need a walker or sitter!

I have been using Sarah Sits-N-Stays for dog walking services ever since I adopted my dog last year. Sarah and all the walkers have been absolutely amazing. Sarah made sure my dog was paired with walkers who are comfortable with an energetic, young dog and my dog has gained so much confidence through her daily walks. The walkers are reliable, experienced and communicative. My dog and I are very thankful for all the help!

Could not be more pleased! I am a full time student. The walking schedule is tailored to mine and has been a lifesaver for me and my dog, Pippa! Sarah is organized and attentive—each walker sends an update and usually a picture of Pippa during walks/playtime. Everybody even gives my cat some love too! I highly recommend!

Finding Sarah Sits-N-Stays after moving to Richmond has been such a blessing for our little family! Our sitters have been so patient and understanding with our reactive dog, and always have great communication with us when we are out of town/when they are walking our dog. I would 100% recommend them for anyone who is a little nervous to leave your dog with new people.

Our pup absolutely LOVES his dog walk and play time with Monika, our Sarah Sits ‘N Stays dog professional! Tucker, our dog, now literally knows the word “Monika” and “friends” and he gets SO excited when it’s time for his walk and play time! He knows the time and day and gets so happy when it’s closer to pick up. He always comes back tired, and if you have a hyper dog like we do, you know how crucial that is for your own sanity. They do such a good job of taking care of him and prioritize safety. They are also very flexible, when Tucker was having some stomach issues, they totally understood we needed to cancel. We really trust Sarah Sits ‘N Stays with our beloved pup! Also, Monika takes the cutest pics of Tucker!

I recently hired Sarah Sits-N-Stays to take care of my 16 year old cat while we were out of town for a week. This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I received daily updates with photos, so I never had to worry about whether my cat was receiving the care and attention he needed. Sarah’s team was always on time and willing to go above and beyond if they saw something that needed to be done. Thanks to Sarah, I actually felt like I could relax on vacation for once. If you're looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, I would absolutely recommend her services.

I am very happy I was referred to Sarah Hays, owner of Sarah Sits-N-Stays. I cannot begin to express how pleased I am with the care that the pet sitters have provided to my fur baby. With the Time to Pet application, I am able to upload all the important information regarding Taz's care, including vital medication she needs to have administered daily. They keep me informed with every visit and send me pictures so I can see how my little girl is doing. They have provided a peace of mind so when I need to travel I can do so with confidence. I highly recommend Sarah Sits-N-Stays!

Sarah Sits N Stays is wonderful. They take such good care of my pup and communication is wonderful with an app that keeps us updated with pics and stories about the fun adventures our dog is going on. She gets so excited when her walker arrives because she knows it's going to be the best time. Wonderful service!

We had a wonderful experience boarding our pups at Wingmont Kennel. They came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Our frenchies were well taken care of by the caring and friendly staff. Like many pet parents, our dogs are family and we will make the drive from Richmond to Wingmont for the peace of mind they provided.

Bring your dog here if you want them to socialize with other dogs in a safe way, if you want your dog to be too happy, if you want them to have too much fun in the pool, if you want them to get too healthy from exercise, and if you want them to have too much love from the employees. We love Wingmont and so do our dogs!! I’m starting to think they like it there more than at home. Haha!

I just wanted to thank Wingmont so much for taking such good care of Rj! I was so nervous about leaving him and letting someone else care for him but they did an exceptional job! They didn’t mind my calls to check in, kept me informed and are the most friendly people. Rj left there very happy and healthy! They read him, did what he was comfortable with and he enjoyed every moment. He will be visiting there again in a few months for another week stay. I highly recommend Wingmont kennels for your pets home away from home 😊

They are amazing!! Our dog is always the most happy and the most worn out (good thing about going here)! Sometimes they post pictures on Facebook and he typically smells good, even after staying here for weeks! They even made him a birthday cake once

Best boarding in the greater Richmond area. Been taking our pup here for years and he has always come back exhausted (from playing) and well cared for. Prices are super reasonable and the staff has always been cheery and helpful.

Been using them a long time for our fur babies. Wouldn’t take them anywhere else! Staff really care about your pets!

Love Wingmont! Our Weimaraner, Mei, has been coming to Wingmont for boarding since she was a puppy. The staff is always very kind, sensitive to some of her separation anxiety, and does a great job helping me to feel better about the boarding process too! Because of Wingmont's care and attention to our pup, our family feels comfortable when traveling, knowing our girl is in good hands. Thank you to all at Wingmont!

It's the only place I trust to keep my dogs. It's an hour from where I live, but worth the drive.

Super happy with our experience so far. We experimented with taking our Golden, Amory, for an overnight and will definitely be taking him back for longer visits. Everyone was very cordial and they had no problem working with our schedule to let us drop off early and pick up a little late. Amory even came back to us with a cool little handkerchief adornment too. Keep up the great work guys!

Al loves it here! He loves the staff & they love him. He loves playing with the other puppies. It's the 1st time that He's willing to leave my side. We get to a certain point on the road and he knows where he's going, he stands up wags his tail and is ready to get out as if he knows the rest of the way to Wingmont! He is treated like a King! Some days I think he's not going to come home with me. I see him and he has a scarf around his neck he's prancing around and he says bye to the staff, it's adorable!

This five star review is for the groomer at Pets at Play (can’t speak to daycare or boarding, as I’ve never done either). I have a 9 year old doodle and trust me, finding a groomer who is not only willing to groom your doodle but also does it well and with a good attitude (many get annoyed) is rare. I always leave happy! He does a great job and in my experience $100 for ~the works~ is affordable. So glad to have found him!

Our little dog loves boarding here. She plays with her little dog friends and gets meals on time. Grooming here is first rate. We bring her in every six weeks. There's a new groomer and he's great

My dog loves Pets at Play! I have been taking Ollie to Pets at Play for daycare, overnight boarding and grooming for over a year now. He is a sweet but sensitive dog. Pets at Play is the only dog boarding and grooming place in RVA that he enjoys going to and being at. The groomer is always very thoughtful about grooming Ollie the way I like. She called me before she groomed Ollie just to confirm she knew what I wanted from his cut. Very blessed to have Pets at Play in our lives

When I tell you my baby loves this place!!! He is a mamma's boy, if he doesn't know you he will not go near you. BUT when we come to Pets at Play he runs right through the door to the day care and grooming! He comes home tired from day care so I know he is playing and having fun!!

Only been here a few times but I am now a loyal customer! They must be doing something right, because now every time I walk my dog he tries to pull me in the direction of Pets At Play. He is so ecstatic every time we go, I am starting to bring him there just for fun in addition to out of necessity! Do note: if your dog is over 70 lbs they won’t be able to be boarded overnight due to kennel sizes, but they do wonderfully accommodating larger dogs in daycare! My pup loves Pets At Play!

Came here for their grooming services and was not disappointed! They were polite and informative when I called with questions and were super friendly in person. And they made my pup adorable! Will definitely return for future grooming services and daycare services.

My westie,, Tucker loves this place to play. I think he has a girlfriend there. They are kind, courteous and true animal lovers. This is the only place he’ll play with other dogs as he never plays outside my home with any other dogs male or female.

I booked grooming for my dog a month ago and was very clear (in writing) about his large size (~100 pounds) - they even said it was fine in writing. I drove 40 minutes to get there and as soon as I was pulling into my neighborhood after drop off, the groomer called to say that my dog was too heavy to fit on the table/a leg of the table was breaking. He made sure to mention that it was not my dog's fault at all/he was fine. He said he has been trying to get new equipment for grooming from management but they're refusing. What type of table doesn't hold 100 pounds? I drove for 2 hours total between 7:00am and 9:00am all because they couldn't provide the groomer the correct equipment to provide grooming services to my dog. It's not his fault in my opinion, but if he knew that size would be an issue, they should have let me know well in advance, as I had booked it a month ago. My dog used to go to Pets at Play about two years ago and there were not issues then (and he was around the same weight). Very disappointed in the lack of communication and lack of resources to provide grooming services. A word of advice to management: do not advertise grooming for dogs of all sizes/approve grooming for larger dogs if you cannot actually do it.

We used to be faithful Pets at Play customers for over 3 1/2 years, having taken our 4 year old since she was a puppy, and our 6 month old for a solid year at least two days a week for each. Over that time, we’ve provided them thousands of dollars in revenue, somewhere around $8k-$9k between daycare, baths and the occasional boarding. In March of 2019, we sent our older dog in for her regular daycare appointment and requested she get a bath and her nails trimmed. When we got her home, we noticed she was licking her paw quite a bit and saw one of her nails was badly damaged, split, and beginning to ooze pus. No one at Pets at Play called or told us her nail was damaged, even though they said her nails were cut. We emailed the owner with our concerns and received a call back from an employee, who specifically told me she was calling as to not cause any confusion, but they could not get their story straight. To me, it sounds like they didn’t want a paper trail of any potential responsibility. One person said the nails were cut, then the groomer said they did not need to be cut. If the nails got cut, why did no one tell us they damaged her nail? If they did not need to get cut, that obviously means you checked them all, right? And if you saw one was damaged, why were we never told? Whatever the case, our dog went to daycare just fine, but left with a badly damaged nail which required sedation and surgery the next day to the tune of $275 in vet bills. Whether our dog’s nails were cut, Pets at Play was negligent at best, and deceptive at worst in trying to conceal or claim ignorance of her injury. Finally, to add insult to injury (literally), I went into their online system that weekend to cancel the next two daycare reservations (because our dog needed to be at home to recover from surgery), and they had deleted all of her reservations for the next year without telling us. I never said anything to them, so why would they delete our standing reservations? It doesn’t seem like a good business practice to alienate loyal customers as we have been for years. The way Pets at Play treated our dog, my wife and me is no way to treat loyal customers. We’ve always enjoyed taking our dogs to Pets at Play for daycare and boarding, but I no longer have any faith in how they treat us or our dogs. We will not be returning, nor can I recommend their services.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful PETs at PLAY is! Dixie knows when I say "want to go see your friends" exactly where she is going and doesn't even look back when we hit the door! That is how I know, PETs at PLAY is the absolute BEST. Dixie has only ever stayed the night in her entire 11 years with my parents, PETs at PLAY and me. I LOVE the emailed pictures throughout the day of her literally smiling and having fun! I am particular because she is such an important part of my life and choosing a daycare and place to board seemed impossible until we experienced PETs at PLAY. Dixie's excitement when talking about, going to and spending time here is exactly why PETs at PLAY will be the only place we go!

Our puppy Rosie goes to Woofy one day a week and it’s her FAVORITE day of the week. She is always so excited to go and nice and tired when she is done! We have boarded her there as well. Excellent staff, very caring and wouldn’t dream of bringing her anywhere else ❤️

I highly recommend the Woofy Wellness Ranch for daycare and boarding. Our corgi has been going there since 2017 and it is one of his favorite places. The Woofy staff view all of the dogs like family. One thing that we take advantage of is the at home boarding. This is where the dog goes home with a trained Woofy teammate after a day of playing at the ranch. It is nice to be able to relax on vacation and not worry about my dog while he is with the Woofy family.

My dogs love Woofy! They’re always excited to go in, and I know they’re having so much fun when I have to board them. The staff has been so kind and helpful. It’s also such a fun perk that I always get to see updates of them at camp or when I’m on vacation 🤩 …

We can't say enough about how much we love the Woofy's family. Arlo started going to Woofy's when he was just a puppy (2019) and the staff took such good care of him. They all knew his name and totally relieved our anxiety about his size/age. We've since moved away, but we still talk about we much we still miss Woofy's. We still haven't found a new daycare that makes us feel as "part of the family" as Woofy's did. Thanks for everything and all the love and care your staff showed Arlo!

I decided to look for doggie day care for my pup, Riley, after his buddy passed over the rainbow. Riley is a very social dog and has been a bit blue without his buddy. I found Whoofy Wellness Ranch while googling and also that they provide bus service. Riley's first full day was last Thursday when I dropped him off and picked him up. I could tell he had a great time at doggie day care. Today he rode the bus for the first time. Whoofy Wellness Ranch sent me an update text to let me know that Riley settled in on the bus ride and is making more new friends today. I highly recommend Whoofy Wellness Ranch. The staff there is awesome and they love the dogs they care for.

They are the best and the nearby dog picks but also picking up at the ranch works out well when you are traveling back into richmond and want to get your pet. This is a quality organization and they love your pet like their own.

We needed someone to take care of our dog for 8 days while we were out of town. They made sure to get her food and bedding materials, all of which were returned in incredible shape. A wonderful benefit of Woofy is that they post photos on Facebook so we could check on her wellbeing the whole time we were gone. See attached image of how happy she was!

Can you ever really know if your dog is happy when they are away from you? I have never been able to tell...until this gem of a place. My dog loves it, she comes home happy and well worn out from playing hard with dogs her size. When we even drop her off, she's like, "bye" and never looks back. These people love dogs and the dogs love them back. They even take pictures you can see on Facebook every day. One million stars for this amazing place

Our Oakley started going on the woofy bus when he was just a puppy! As he grew up and went through some changes in temperament (increased fear/anxiety) woofy was always a safe space for him. They understand animal behavior and have a safe ratio of humans to dogs. From celebrating birthdays to setting up a secret Santa- woofy really went above and beyond! We have since moved to another state and are on the search for a new daycare- which really made us realize how much trust we had in the woofy staff! We never thought twice about sending Oakley to daycare or boarding there, and he was always so happy to see his friends (especially his bus driver!!). We were so sad to leave woofy- but are happy to have found such a great day school for Oakley to grow up at!

The team at Woofy is fantastic, and really takes the time to make sure every dog has a great stay! My dog had started getting overwhelmed at his previous daycare, but the smaller groups and focused attention from the trained staff had him back to his playful, daycare-loving self from day 1!

Sheri is awesome!! She insured me my girl would be taken care of. She had knee surgery on both back legs. So I was nervous trying to find a new groomer. She exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much!! Highly recommend Furry Godmother Pet Spa!!!!

Furry Godmother Pet Spa is great with my English Bulldog (Blue). They are the only ones that can handle him when giving him a bath. They have also been great when I board him there. They give him all of the attention that he wants. 😁I am at peace when I leave him with them because I know he’s happy and safe. …

The staff and owner here are very knowledgeable and caring. This is my first time owning a dog, and I’m so thankful I found Furry Godmother pet spa. We have boarded here several times also, and I felt so comfortable leaving my Hope with the team. While I was gone I received lots of pictures and updates and I was very impressed about how clean the boarding facilities were. When I picked my little Hope up she didn’t even want to come home. I also received a full detailed report on how many times she used the bathroom and how well she ate. I’m very Impressed with the grooming they do on her also. She is a very sensitive dog for her grooming and they have so much patience with her. This is definitely a place you can trust and feel safe with your pet. You will not be disappointed. I will continue to bring my pet here and tell all my friends about this place. 10 out 10 for me.

This place is awesome! My little fat boy (jasper), Sophia and Abby were loved and well taken care of. We went to pick them up and they were hanging out on the couch like they would be doing at home. Freshly groomed and happy! Great job yall!

This was his very first haircut. The photo on the left is before, and the valentine theme photo is after his visit (which they designed). I need to tell you all how much they loved him! They took care of him like he was family. They answered all my questions, they explained the grooming process, and gave me a progress report of how well he did. I was so glad that he felt loved by them. The type of cut was excellent, and he looks like he's ready for a date! I will definitely be returning! Thank you for making my boy's day!

Very friendly animal lovers! Took my Yorkie for a nail trim and was so impressed I took her back a few weeks later for a complete grooming! Definitely recommend the small local shops over the big name places.

Sheri and her staff are very accommodating and do an amazing job! Our Staffordshire Terrier has been going to get groomed here for years and we recently adopted two 5 month old foster girls who had their first visit last week. Easy drop off, very communicative via text when they are ready and great feedback at pickup. I feel like they really care about each animal and go out of their way to make it the best experience for everyone. I like that they don’t cut corners on vaccination records and keep everyone’s health a priority.

I’m usually hesitant to leave my dogs when I go out of town but my mind was totally at ease leaving them at The Furry Godmother. I was updated daily with texts and pictures and felt they were in very good hands. They were treated with walks and playtime and lots of belly rubs. I will definitely use them again.

I just wanted to come on here and talk about my experience with Furry Godmother Pet Spa LLC. I have 3 fur babies Pebbles, Ranger, and Biscuit. Whenever I have taken my dogs to the Spa or Boarding facility they have gone above and beyond what I expected. Between the photo updates and phone calls regarding my pets, they really made me feel comfortable when having to leave them. My little one Biscuit has stomach and esophagus issue which makes her daily care a little more complex than the others. She needed to be watch while she ate and 10 minutes afterwards. It also made me very comfortable that they have vet care experience in case Biscuit did have issues and THEY DID THIS EXTRA CARE FOR NO EXTRA COST!!!! I love taking my babies to Furry Godmothers and will continue to do so, I hope this post finds people that need to find a place for their fur babies as well.

I cannot say this service was up to my standards. I took my dog to get his nails trimmed yesterday as he does not let us do them. I obviously would clip his nails if he would let me. This is our second time there and yesterday was MUCH different than our first time. The lady at the front grabbed the nail clippers and the Dremel and came and sat in the floor with my dog and myself. I had no issue with this. I had an issue when she grabs my dogs paw and he started squealing and trying to get away from her. I made her aware that he does not like his feet touched and normally has to be muzzled. She is saying “I’m not hurting you” and then looks at me after he nips at her and says “he is lucky he did not break skin” I also made her aware he is worse when I am around. She was also trying to tell me that he needed to trust her and I for this to happen. The nail trim did get done and I did leave a $2 tip because she did try and I am to nice not to tip when someone does something they are supposed to. I will never go back and this should have never happened. Looks like I’m finding somewhere else to go !

Kenny has been an amazing dog-sitter for us, taking care of our dogs whenever we're away. The dogs love him, and his reliability and caring nature make him our top choice. Thanks!

Kenny walked our dog for a year. He was a consummate professional and obvious dog lover. Our dog always looked forward to his walks with Kenny. My wife and I could rest easy at work knowing Kenny would be taking care of him while we were away. He was easy to work with and always clear and concise in his communications with us. Finally, he accommodated our ever changing schedules with ease. Our only regret is that Kenny can’t move with us. We recommend him and his services most highly.

Kenny is wonderful, and our pets adore him. He takes loving care of our dog, cat, guinea pig, and parakeets whenever we travel, which we do several times a year and often for weeks at a time. We appreciate that while he cares for our pets, he's also able to keep an eye on our house in general, watering plants, and collecting newspapers and mail. Kenny is very reliable, and responds promptly when we e-mail him from our travels. We and our pets are very satisfied Fan Sitter customers!

We had Kenny take care of our cats off and on during our nine month stay in the Fan District this past year. Kenny took superb care of our two little critters and our apartment when we traveled. He even volunteered to help us after we moved back to Pennsylvania by making sure our mail was been picked up. Just a great guy doing a wonderful service that put our mind at ease when we were out of town. My wife and I recommend him most highly.

Kenny is absolutely fantastic. I am so grateful to live in an area where I have access to his services! My husband and I adopted a senior rescue dog who can be very difficult, due to past abuse. Kenny has been AWESOME in working with Meyer, and I know that I never have to worry while I’m out of town. I recommend Kenny wholeheartedly!!!

I have been a mid-day dog walk client of The Fan Sitter / Kenny for over a year. The service has been exceptional. Kenny handles my dog well, is very reliable, and is flexible in meeting my needs and schedule. I would highly recommend The Fan Sitter / Kenny to others.

We were nervous to leave our frail cat for a vacation recently but Kenny was excellent. He was extremely responsive to my questions and I felt that I would be alerted immediately if there was an issue while we were away. I cannot thank Kenny enough for giving me peace of mind for such a beloved pet. I highly recommend the Fan Sitter!

I moved to Richmond 3 years ago and was lucky enough to find Kenny Williams aka The Fan Sitter. He is extremely prompt in getting back to you. He has been responsible for taking care of my 15 year labradoodle many many times and always confirms if Tag is still taking this medication or that one. One trip, Kenny emailed me letting me know he didn't see the peanut butter Tag liked, so he went out and bought some. Kenny is conscientious and very professional. I encourage any pet owner to use The Fan Sitter!

I've hired The Fan Sitter to walk my 2 dogs for about 3 years now. I cannot recommend Kenny highly enough. He is dependable! He is very flexible - he allows me to add a walk - change the time - cancel at virtually a moments notice. His rates are reasonable. I am so glad he was recommended to me.

Kenny has been our cat sitter since we moved near the Fan, and he's been great. Reliable, fast response to communication, totally professional and very nice to the pets. Highly recommended!

We boarded our 2 dogs for 9 days. This place was amazing with them. The place is clean, the staff was kind with great customer service. Our dogs are high maintenance with some anxiety and allergy issues. They had no problems and were completely taken care of! I would recommend this place 1000 times over!

Love this kennel and doggy daycare! The owners are the kindest caring people I know. Darius and Jamie really love what they do! Our border collie Patrick has been going there for many years. He is always well loved, exercised, cared for and all his basic needs are met. We have a difficult time getting him to go home when we pick him up. Thanks you for being such a great place to board my dog.

The owners and staff at Dobe Run are awesome! They have always taken excellent care of our dogs and were extra helpful and flexible during a recent extended stay of a sick family member's dog. The facility is very clean with plenty of room for dogs to get outdoor exercise during their stay. I highly recommend Dobe Run Kennel and appreciate the excellent customer service provided by the owners and staff!

The staff is amazing and my dogs love them. They no longer offer full grooming , but still do baths. Their daycare options are great if you don't need overnight.

We take our fur baby to Dobe Run at least 3 times a year! He gets so excited when we pull in and when we walk in they know him and his tail wags and he runs to the staff! I would recommend them to every pet owner!!!!

We couldn't have been happier with Dobe Run and their daycare services! The staff was very welcoming and accommodating for our dog Hank while were on vacation in Gloucester, VA. He must of had a great time too because on the second day he jumped out of the truck and dragged me inside... I'd say that's doggy language for "this place is great!" :) Thank you for taking such good care of him!!

Love these guys. Our high strung cocker always runs right in. They seem to spend plenty of time with the dogs and our dog never seems to mind being left, even tho he is quite happy when he gets picked up.

Generally, my dogs are anxious creatures but they always leave Dobe Run happy! I love how many "layers" of fencing they have, the facility is clean and safe, and the staff is great with my pets. I definitely recommend trusting Dobe Run with your pets!

They pay close attention to my pups and have no problem calling me when there's a problem. Really like home

Our dog stayed there one night and everyone and everything seemed great. Our dog goes back for a week's stay soon, we'll see how that goes. I'm hoping I will be "upgrading" my review to 5 stars after that. Very clean facility.

My dachshund loves this place. When we get there, he charges right in. They are always interacting with the dogs. Taking many pictures with them especially holidays. On my trial day, I was able to tour the whole facility, and it was clean and no smell, and I was amazed by that. The staff does an excellent job. Here is his Halloween picture.

This is the Puppy Place! My little puppy had such a good time here. I don’t live in Virginia and I needed doggy care because I was on a work trip but my doggy had to come with me. They were excellent getting me in…she did a meet and greet and then was able to schedule immediately afterwards. Best of all I could tell my dog really like this place, she was so happy when we pulled up in the morning. The staff here is amazing and you can tell they take great care of the doggies there. They also send pictures of their day with a report card. Hands down the best place in Virginia for your doggies!

Little Dog Services was great to work with given one of my guys has some separation anxiety and we were worried about boarding him overnight. They worked with us to make both dog and humans were comfortable. He really loves his time there because when we pull in the parking lot he starts jumping to get out the door to play with friends.

My dog loves loves going, she gets so excited when we get close as she knows where she is going. Friendly staff and great prices. Holli did a great job today giving her a gorgeous haircut. ❤️❤️❤️

I absolutely love this boarding kennel for my cat Bear. They take such excellent care of him and provide updates as requested. They also were able to accommodate his 5 day stay at a last minute request. Wonderful group of people here ❤️

We have been going to Little Dog Services for over 8 years (since puppyhood). They love and treat each dog like their own. I highly recommend them and their amazing staff. Some places may be fancier, but what a pet cares about is love, safety, and fun. Little Dog Services delivers.

I've given Little Dog Services an opportunity to remedy the situation and they haven't taken it upon themselves to get back to me, so I am posting this review. I took my dog to daycare for the second time on Saturday and picked him up around 2:45 that afternoon. When I got home, I did a thorough check of him because he seemed to be covered in dried saliva and as you can see in the images below, he was either bitten or scratched repeatedly by another dog in his groin area. This is NOT okay and definitely not the result of normal play. No one mentioned anything to me when I picked him up. One of the scratches look fairly deep so I ended up taking him to the emergency vet where they disinfected him and told me to keep an e-collar on him for the next few days to prevent infection. They weren't sure what exactly the cause of it was - either bites or scratches. I talked to one employee over the phone who, not only did not even express any condolences, tried to tell me that he was the biggest in the group and she didn't see how anything could happen when they were "playing". I emailed these images and was told someone would get back to me. Haven't heard a thing in over 24 hours. Do not take your dog to Little Dog Services. This is direct evidence that they are not properly supervising or intervening in play when necessary. I even had told them that my dog has a tendency to be submissive and bring out the bully in more dominant dogs. It is obvious they are not dividing dogs into appropriate play groups as advertised. And if an issue does arise, they will not handle it in a timely manner.

I love the staff at Little Dog Services! They go the extra mile every day to make our dogs happy and safe. I cannot thank them enough for the special care they give to both of my dogs. Truly awesome!

This place is lovely. The staff make my day every time I pick my pup up with their kindness. And I can tell they truly care for my dog. Don't bother with anywhere else. I switched here for daycare from a big chain and couldn't be happier with the change.

My dog is always eager to enter the building so that is enough for me to know she loves it.

The staff here are so kind and friendly. My dog, Cosette, begins smiling and wiggling as soon as we walk in the door. It is a 'no frills' place but my dog doesn't need a pool or gym equipment. She needs a loving staff and plenty of dogs to play with. It is affordable and they will even bath her and trim her nails for me. She goes to daycare 2 days a week. Because she has so many positive interactions there, she was comfortable being boarded for a few days.

Conan was a senior dog with specific needs when he started going to Four Paws Pet Resort. The staff were always accommodating and understanding of his needs. I lost my best friend while I was traveling and the Staff at Four Paws showed him the love only someone who cares deeply for an animal can show. The owner stayed in contact with me while we made our way home and his staff remained with Conan until he passed. I may not ever need the services of Four Paws Pet Resort again, but I will refer everyone I know. Just tell them “Conan’s Dad sent you.”.

Overall nice employees and reasonable prices. My issue is why don't you have live video footage,cameras/monitors for us pet parents to see what's really going on when we're away from our babies? If there's nothing to hide and all is well? Id feel more comfortable seeing that my pet is truly happy and enjoying their day while I'm gone. It's every parents right to see first hand if their pet is truly being taken care of as claimed and they're having fun, enjoying themselves. I strongly recommend implementing a live video stream for people who drop their dogs off with you all day. It would give us a peace of mind and no suspicions.

Warning ‼️ My fur baby is now missing one eye after being boarded here. Incident took place Monday. I was informed my dog’s eye was dislodged from the socket and right off I was being told it was common or normal for my breed and age of dog. My family and friends own small breeds of different sorts and have never had this issue. He was taken to the hospital and they could not save the eye. They also determined that this was NOT normal and resulted from traumatic injury. It’s is now Thursday and I still do not have an incident report or video footage from the facility. No one has told me what happened while he was in their care. They keep saying they are sorry but still have yet to give me answers. Owner said he would provide report after investigation but why does that take more than 24hrs from an incident involving emergency surgery? They accuse the hospital of being overhanded on their report to me and all the hospital did was report their findings and facts, something four paws for some reason has a hard time of doing.i lost trust with this center and made sure my dog was discharged my boyfriend and not them. This caused him to rearrange his work plans. How do you brace your child to see their dog perfectly fine one day and in pain, discomfort and missing an eye when she returns from travel?

Our dog Flapjack loves Four Paws Pet Resort! The staff is amazing and so kind. You can tell how much they love your pet:) Flapjack always loves going in to daycare each day.

I began using Four Paws over the summer when I needed a last minute sitter. I was very nervous the first time around to leave my babies with someone I didn't know. Needless to say I gave them a call the day after drop off to check on my babies. The staff told me they were having so much fun with the other dogs and were wearing themselves out. Since the first visit, I have booked a couple more times. As soon as we arrive to Four Paws my pups know exactly where we are. They get so excited to go see their friends and have so much fun! Upon pick-up my pups are always worn out from all the fun they had. If you need a place to board your pups Four Paws is the place to go! Friendly staff, fun environment, and bonus: the dogs are worn out by pick up time!

We absolutely love four paws! The staff are always so great and welcoming. After a few visits, they had remembered our dog by name. We normally bring our hound mix for dog daycare. He thrives on social interaction so he is always excited when we pull up to the building. We have also used them for boarding over the weekend when we leave town and never had an issue. We have recommended them to several of our dog friends.

My dog Chip loves 4 Paws Pet Resort! The staff is always friendly and courteous. Chip loves everyone that greets him at the front desk. We have never had any safety concerns and they all obviously love working with dogs. Chip has a great time at 4 Paws because he is always exhausted and in a great mood when I pick him up. I 100% recommend 4 Paws Pet Resort for daily daycare and boarding. They are the best!

My puppy has been going to 4 paws for over a year, the staff is amazing - they all know him and provide great, friendly service. They really care about your dog and are always super helpful. The few times my dog got a little rambunctious they were great about letting me now. Brody just loves going to daycare to have fun with his friends and get out some energy!

My family, and most importantly my doggo, LOVE this place! My fur baby gets so excited every time we pull up to the door since she knows she’s going to have so much fun! The staff are all super friendly, and they take such good care of all the dogs under their care. And they’re reasonably priced. Bonus: the owner of this business is also supports their local community, giving money support and honor teachers and schools :)
