Dog Boarding Crouch

“I’m so happy I found Jennifer’s profile. She took great care of my 3 babies and eased any anxiety I had leaving them for their first time being boarded. Will definitely rebook with Jennifer again! My pups had a blast there.”

Tiffany S.

“she was very nice and made us feel very comfortable leaving our pet in her care. She communicated with us during our vacation letting us know how our pet was doing during her stay. I recommend her to anyone who looking for a sitter for their pet ?. I look forward to do business with her again.”

Roderick C.

“Peyton was great with communication and pictures. She responded every time I asked her a question. Peyton’s family assists with the dogs as well and they were wonderfully friendly and provided feedback about how my dog did during his stay. My dog got the right amount of play and cuddle time. The yard is huge for the dogs to run and play. I felt like my dog was safe and well loved while we were away. I’ve already booked another week with this lovely family.”

Christy O.

“We are very satisfied with the service that Teona and Louelyn provided. I know it is not easy for providers to care for a pet with special needs but because of the quality of care you showed Georgie, I had peace of mind all throughout Georgie’s stay with you. Thank you so very much.”

May A.

“Erin and the family were great. I needed a sitter for Lyla on short notice and fortunately they were available. The day I picked Lyla up, she slept most of the rest of the day. I took that as a sign that she had a fun time. I would book them again if I have another occasion.”

Jennifer B.

“GREAT with our dog! She is a dog lover and gave Elsa the run of her home. Sent videos and called with updates. Would absolutely use her again!!”

Wes C.

“Our dog Lulu had a blast and was well cared for with Ellie! She was very proactive about getting all the details to make sure she was at home, and she had so much fun playing with her dogs! We would recommend her to anyone and ask to board with her again!”

About: Dogs have been a big part of my life for years, and I have 8 years of pet care experience. As a longtime dog owner, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and temperaments, and I know how important patience, consistency, and attention are to keeping them happy and safe. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, company while you’re away, or some extra TLC, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m excited to meet local pups and help give their people peace of mind! I have a flexible schedule and am looking forward to caring for pets in my local community. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting based on availability. I’m happy to communicate with you ahead of time to make sure your pet’s routine is maintained and their needs are met. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I follow your care instructions closely, respect your home, and make sure pets have fresh water, a safe environment, and plenty of attention. I’ll keep you updated during visits and walks so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. I always want you to feel comfortable trusting me with a member of your family.

“Alexandria was extremely accommodating with drop off time and pick up time! We were very nervous about the whole thing, however after meeting Alexandria and Gregg, the nervousness subsided. They were sweet to Ava and I can tell she really enjoyed herself. We received many photos the entire time to assure us of how things were going. She has an amazing fenced in yard for all the wonderful pups. Can’t wait for Ava to have another visit in the future. Thank you so much!”

About: As the owner of high energy pets, I am an expert at walks and enrichment. I love animals and am often the first person my friends and family ask to watch their pets when they go out of town. I have a flexible schedule and can be available to care for your pets! On weekends, I am available for petting sitting or long walkies. I have a fenced yard and a neighborhood that is good for walks. I have two pets of my own, a service dog dropout and a cat that likes dogs more than people. I am also willing to drive to your home to care for your pets.

About: I believe pets deserve to feel just as loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away as they do at home. I’m attentive, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each pet. I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and individual needs, whether they’re a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a shy pet, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and care. I’m happy to keep up with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and all the little routines that help your pet feel comfortable. Communication is also important to me. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and getting plenty of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy making time for animals throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of cuddles. When caring for a pet, I make their routine a priority. I’m happy to follow their normal schedule and keep them comfortable in a familiar environment. I also make time for regular updates and photos so their owners know how they’re doing. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and opportunities to relax. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, walking, and bedtime routines so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their familiar environment and stick closely to their routine. I’ll make sure they’re fed, exercised, given plenty of attention, and have everything they need.

About: Your dog becomes part of the family the moment they arrive 🐾💛 I provide a safe, structured, and loving environment where every dog is cared for like my own. With over 4 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, you can feel confident your dog is in capable and knowledgeable hands. As a certified dog trainer, I go beyond basic boarding by providing structure, guidance, and consistency throughout their stay. Whether it’s reinforcing commands, practicing leash manners, or simply maintaining a calm routine, your dog is always learning and thriving ✨🐶 I also have three personal dogs of my own ranging from 1 to 8 years old, so I truly understand the different needs, energy levels, and personalities that come with every stage of life 🐕🐕‍🦺🐾 My goal is to give your dog a comfortable, enriching, and stress free stay while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom and a part-time dog trainer who works out of my own home. I’m already home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and consistent care without long periods alone. My training background also means I understand dog behavior, routines, and safety, so your pet gets both loving care and structured supervision in a calm, home-based environment. When pets stay in my home, they become part of my daily routine and are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, and time to relax. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule and any special instructions closely, including medications if needed. Because I’m home most of the day, I’m able to give them lots of attention, affection, and structure, while using my dog training experience to reinforce good behavior and keep interactions positive and safe.

About: I have worked with dogs all my life and have been caring for them professionally since 2014. I began by interning with a professional dog trainer and gained hands-on experience working with dogs of many personalities, including fearful, nervous, and anxious dogs. I then began boarding dogs in my home part-time in 2016 and transitioned to full-time boarding in January 2019. Since then, I have continued expanding my knowledge through continuing education in dog behavior, safety, and life-saving skills. I have also volunteered with Richmond Animal Care and Control, working both in the shelter and with foster animals. Over the years, I have cared for dogs with a wide range of needs, including daily medications, mobility limitations, behavioral quirks, and dogs who simply need extra patience and understanding. I also previously hosted supervised off-leash pack walks with groups of up to 20 dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments, which gave me extensive experience reading canine body language and managing group dynamics. What I believe sets me apart is that dog boarding is not something I do occasionally—it is what I do full-time. I am home nearly all the time, which allows me to provide consistency, supervision, and a predictable routine. I pay close attention to each dog's body language and personality so I can recognize when they want to play, when they need a break, and when they are becoming overstimulated. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy earning a dog's trust. My goal is for every dog who stays with me to feel safe, understood, and cared for while their family is away. Dog boarding is my full-time work, so caring for the dogs in my home is my primary daily routine. I am home with the dogs nearly all day, with only occasional short absences for errands or appointments. Because I am home so much, I’m able to provide a consistent, predictable schedule with regular potty breaks, supervised play, rest periods, meals, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I take dogs outside approximately every 2–3 hours during the day, weather permitting, and all playtime is supervised. When I do need to leave the house briefly, the dogs are safely crated until I return. I also maintain a consistent evening routine and overnight schedule so dogs know what to expect during their stay. My goal is to make boarding feel less like being away from home and more like having a comfortable, structured vacation of their own. Safety and trust are at the heart of the way I care for dogs in my home. With five resident dogs and years of experience boarding dogs full-time, I have developed a structured approach that allows dogs with different personalities and needs to share the home safely and comfortably. Every visiting dog receives a slow, one-at-a-time introduction to my resident dogs. I pay close attention to body language and allow dogs time to become comfortable before introducing the next dog. I also keep play groups relatively small, generally 4–8 dogs depending on their individual personalities and comfort levels. All indoor and outdoor play is supervised 100% of the time. Our home has a fully fenced backyard of approximately ⅓ acre, and dogs have regular supervised opportunities to go outside for potty breaks and play. When the weather isn't suitable for outdoor activity, we bring playtime indoors, where the dogs can spend supervised time with me in the living room and kitchen. I maintain a predictable routine of potty, play, rest, and repeat. Dogs are given appropriate rest periods throughout the day, including approximately 45 minutes of crate rest after meals to allow them to digest safely. Dogs are also safely crated when I am away from home and overnight. I have crates in a variety of sizes available, so owners do not need to bring their own. I want owners to feel comfortable being completely honest about their dog's personality, habits, fears, medical needs, and quirks. The more I know before a stay begins, the better I can prepare and provide individualized care. My goal is to create an environment where dogs are not only physically safe, but also feel secure, understood, and genuinely at home.
