Doggy Day Care in Buena Vista

“Falen was so responsive and very careful to read everything in Makka’s profile and to make sure it was the best match for her it could be. Dani was the person home, and she was so warm and friendly and knows a ton about dogs. Even though my baby had an atypical reactive moment when she first met her puppy playmate, Dani wasn’t phased at all, and coached me on how to proceed. “That’s very normal,” she said, and within 30 seconds - 1 minute, Makkachin realized she had a friend and was her usual friendly, playful self! The had a BLAST running around their expansive backyard with her nee puppy friend, and Dani was very attentive. When I came to pick Makka up, Dani brought her right to the door, leashed up and bag packed. She said Makka did a great job and welcomed us back any time. We’ll definitely use them again soon!”

“Jaimee was so accommodating. She agreed to watch Millie for 2 long days so I could visit with my daughter. Millie had a great time with Kili!”

“Maddie was so friendly and professional and also is home all days with the dogs, which is a huge plus! Makkachin is always unsure of new environments at first, but got comfortable quickly and definitely sees Maddie as her new friend. I’ve akready booked her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals most of my life and dealt with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am genuinely excited to meet any new furry friends! I work remotely which allows me the privilege of a flexible schedule. I can hang with your pup at my house or work with your schedule to come visit your pup in their own home. Our home has plenty of space for extra friends. a screened in porch, and a fenced in back yard. A Pup paradise! Our neighborhood is also quiet, safe, and great for walking.

“My pup always had such a good time at Andrews I really appreciate how well he plays with his dogs and each stay has also helped us to reinforce some training.”

About: I raise lovable, friendly Aussies here on my farm. I train my dogs to protect the chickens, ducks and honeybees. Your pet will be exclusively cared for inside my home as the special guest with every need met. Your pet may not want to go home after all this love and attention =). I work, farm, school and play from home and am here 90% of the time. My 46 acre farm feels like a magical place that flows with fresh spring water and honey as we are a honeybee sanctuary. I allow your pet to roam free within my home during the day. I prefer them in a crate at nighttime but I am only in the next room close by. They will be taken out every 2 hours or so on a leash. My Aussies are extremely friendly, working farm dogs and love to meet our visitors when they go out to potty or play. Your pet will also have the opportunity to meet other farm animals and get comfortable with them if they would like. I have about a mile of trails around my farm and I walk daily. If your dog is allowed on the trails and in my creeks, I ask that you purchase the bath as well so they go home super clean.

“Marketa and her family were a delight to deal with. Our plans were changing quickly and she was so patient and flexible with our drop off and pick up. Nice home and yard, and our dog came back to us happy, rested and fed. Thanks Marketa, if we’re in the area again we would happily leave our Husky with you again.”

“Alexis took great care of our doggie for the day when we were traveling to Lynchburg for graduation ceremonies. Alexis was super easy to work with, reliable, and she responded to communication quickly. She has a very professional and kind demeanor, and we were completely comfortable leaving our doggie with her, even with no previous meeting. We were able to enjoy our celebration while our Misty was well cared for. We will definitely book Alexis again if we are ever in the Lynchburg area.”

“Jennifer was great with our 4.5 month old puppy. She took him outside enough that there were no accidents. Her dog and our puppy played endlessly. He slept great at night. This was his first time away. She was extremely flexible with our schedule. I highly recommend Jennifer!”

“Mikayla was absolutely wonderful with our puppy! She responded quickly, went above and beyond in the care she provided, and send us lots of pictures. We will definitely use her again!!”

About: I grew up with dogs so I have been around them almost my whole life. I am comfortable around most friendly dogs and love to help them feel comfortable with me as well. We currently have two Besinji’s (a 3 year old neutered male and a 2 year old spayed female). I have also watched other dogs before including a senior dog that required medicine on a scheduled basis. Watching these other dogs included taking them for walks, prepping their meals, supplying treats, and of course playing and cuddling! Husband and wife team! Husband works from home and I am a stay-at-home mom. Between us both we’ll be available to fit almost any schedule! We have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs. Our dogs have their own gated room that can easily be watched from other rooms on the main floor. Our dogs sleep in their own crates at night. We make sure that our dogs have food and water available throughout the day.

“Dickens is always happy to stay with Taylor.”

“Lisa is incredible! She cared for my puppy as if it was her own. Sent daily pics, kept me updated on all activities, very responsive, and flexible. Highly recommend her and will definitely rebook. Thank you Lisa!”

About: I've taken care of our family dog Ginger with my wife for the last 10 years. She is a very energetic mix of a Boxer and a Labrador so I am very comfortable with dogs that might be jumpy, playful, or what some might consider rough. I work from home so I can usually pop in for quick visit at all times of the day and longer stays can happen after five p.m. and any time on the weekends. I am not offering boarding at this moment but I look forward to the possibility in the future when we move into a bigger space.

“Sissy was a very happy dog on her day with MaryBeth! I really appreciated her flexibility with watching Sissy during the process of buying and moving into our new home. Sissy enjoyed playing with MaryBeth’s dog; the whole day was a very positive experience! I will definitely seek care for Sissy again with MaryBeth!”

About: I have 23 years of experience exercising, socializing, and caring for all dog breeds! I have developed a keen understanding of dog behavior and communication that makes our boarding experience more enjoyable for dogs. Check out my Happy Hound K9 Social Club’s google reviews to hear what people think of us. I do dog daycare and boarding full time. My life is built around the dog business. I am flexible for meet and greets, and boarding drop-off and pick up times. I have a 2 acre, fenced-in dog park with a natural log agility area, a sand circle for wrestling, and large fields for running. I also have a large, fenced-in yard around our house that is used for our canine guests. Dogs stay overnight in our house and are always supervised.
