Doggy Day Care in Gravel Hill, Richmond, VA

“Sarah is wonderful. She gives my puppy lots of love and attention. She has also answered some questions and offered me some advice that I have found to be helpful.”

“Lauren was very kind and patient with my third baby. I really appreciate her attention to his temperament especially since he was in an unfamiliar home. Words cannot convey how much I value her time today when I needed it. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!”

“Cindy is great, I believe this is my third time dropping Olee with her. He loves playing with her other dogs and is always tuckered out after.”

“Sorry for the late review. I've been doing the grandma thing for the past 2 weeks. I am a widow and I live alone many miles from family. My dogs, Margot and Molly, have become my life. When I learned that they were not invited to the party, I almost declined the invitation. Through a trusted friend, I learned about Rover. I took a chance and booked a time with Dawn. WOW! It's like taking your child to kindergarten for the first day and they walk away from you without looking back. I like to think the girls are good judges of character. Well Dawn took their leashes and they walked away from me without looking back They were not the least stressed when I picked them up later. They had play time with other dogs, they had their dinner and they were ready for a good night's sleep when I picked them up. I got updates on where they were and what they were doing. I couldn't be happier than I was with Dawn's care. This experience was a golden buzzer for me.”

“Great communication and a happy dog! My dog really enjoyed hanging with Ross, Ava, and their dog George.”

“So happy with Dante and Quincy's care of Bodhi. I drop him off every Wednesday while I'm in the office and he has such a great day playing with their dog Snickers. Big help for me and great socialization for my pup.”

“Taryn and her husband were great with Chase. Taryn put my mind at ease with the care she provided for Chase. Will definitely book again. Thank you for all the pics and love shown towards my lil man. I truly appreciate you !”

“You can’t beat Colby for kind, attentive care for your dog. He’s got lots of experience and goes the distance for your pet and you.”

“Chelsea was AMAZING with my anxious pup! She was also very gracious with my unplanned schedule change and accommodated us accordingly. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”

“Salis was great! She took time to do a meet and greet ahead of time for my anxious and reactive dog. She responded quickly and sent me updates throughout the day. She said Cassidy got along well with her and her roommates. We have already booked more stays with her!”

“Hello, animal lovers! I have had much success using Rover and I highly recommend Lindsey to be a part of the team. I've had the pleasure of seeing her interact with many animals over the years; she is your modern-day Elliza Thornberry! She has a feline of her own and its obvious how much they love each other. She helped care for my cat with special needs. I have seen her administer medicine and single handedly bath a cat, walking away without a scratch. Her assertive and gentle demeanor makes her the perfect Canidate. Have a Magical Day, Kate”

“My dog Frito has stayed with Cary twice so far. She is very obviously an animal lover and my dog was very excited to go back to see her again =) That's usually all I use to judge daycare or boarding. His enthusiasm to return tells me he had a great visit with her the first time =) I plan on choosing Cary for my future daycare and possible overnight needs!”

“Thanks for taking great care of my boys!”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs ranging from small to large. I have also been a house sitter while watching the two fur babies 🥰 Friends and family often contact me if they need a pet sitter because they know that with me, they will be treated like a luxury, lol. The youngest dog I’ve watched was four months old, and I have a Yorkie of my own who is 13 years old. I always say my dogs are like my children because I don’t want to have children…. I want to have a bunch of dogs instead 😂 I currently work part-time as an esthetician in Chesterfield on M, T, W, but I set my schedule monthly. I am off for the rest of the week and the weekend typically. If I am at my house, I will keep my dogs crated until the dog feels comfortable, and if the dog does not feel comfortable, I can keep the dogs in their room. I have two dogs of my own; one is a German shepherd; Rottweiler mix, which is a year old old and my old girl, which is a Yorkie, 14 years old. I also love sending pictures of your pups to help you feel more comfortable.

“Betsy is a "natural" when it comes to caring for animals! Her love of cats and dogs, especially, combined with a deep sense of responsibility make her more than a pet "sitter." Betsy has cared for my animals for several years so I can attest personally to her reliability and care and attention for my babies!”

“My dogs are sooo tired after a day of frolicking at Kate’s!”

“All dogs go to heaven and heaven is at Melanie's house. My three year old husky never wanted to be picked up. I'm sure Melanie made us very replaceable! Haha”

“Maggie is a wonderful sitter. She is conscientious and low-key, which was just perfect for our dogs. They were relaxed with Maggie and her family, and we could relax, knowing that our beloved girls were in good hands. We will happily leave our dogs with Maggie when we visit Richmond next. Our dogs, Aoife and Schnuggi, are Bernese Mt. Dogs.”

“I have witnessed for several years the love and care that my niece Ingrid has for the animals, her responsibility and affection for the pets stands out in her. She is very affectionate and very attentive to the pets.”

“Ana is one of the most kind hearted individuals I have ever known. The empathy and love she shows for people is also displayed in the way she cares for animals. She has always been a loving, responsible, compassionate "mother" to all of her pets. Although I no longer have a pet (my dog died a few years ago,) I would not hesitate to contact Ana if I needed someone to dog sit. I would feel confident and secure knowing my pet was getting the best care possible in my absence. Ana would be the first person I would call.”
