Dog Boarding in Cumberland, VA

“My big boy had the pleasure of staying with Furry Friends Academy over the weekend as I had to travel out of town for family business! Let me say I was very hesitant about using Rover but was in a bind so I did and I’m so glad I did! My big boy had the best time of his life! He got to socialize with other people, dogs and became really good friends with another GSD! I got so many updated pictures it was as if he was with me! Then I literally just got these picture they took of him! I must say I am beyond impressed with the level of care and love he got! If you are in need of a pet sitter I can recommend them! #germanshepherdpuppy”

“Cate was great for my pepper.I was very nervous To leave him with anyone, but cate went way above What I expected. I just booked with Cate again later This month and have no concerns at all !!!! THANKS CATE!!!”

“I recently had the pleasure of using Rover for the first time, and I couldn't have been more fortunate to find such an outstanding dog sitter. From the moment I connected with him, it was evident that he was not only experienced but genuinely passionate about dogs. The process of leaving my beloved Nala in someone else's care was initially nerve-wracking, but Zach quickly alleviated any concerns. He established a comfortable atmosphere, providing me with regular updates and reassurance that Nala was safe and enjoying her stay under his supervision. She made herself right at home and got to spend lots of time with other pups. Thank you Zach for taking care of Nala with such dedication and expertise. We will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“Debbie & Pete have a fabulous setup inside and outside for all the doggos. It truly is a little doggie heavenly retreat! They are also wonderful people who you can feel comfortable leaving your doggo with and rest knowing they will show loving kindness to your pet. Definitely recommend!”

About: I'm a second generation dog sitter who started young; at the age of 6, I was going with my mom to her many pet sitting gigs. Now, I'm an independent pet sitter who has a ton of free time to hang out with your furbabies! My professional sitting experience includes the past 7 years of dedicated service to clients in Chesterfield, as well as the surrounding area. (References available! :) ) I'm willing to travel up to 60-75 miles from my home here in Chesterfield, and I'm comfortable with any breed and size of dog, as well as cats, reptiles, and farm animals. I have experience administering medication, as well as handling special needs dogs. I'm usually available on short term notice, and can do late night and weekend visits. I SPECIALIZE IN FARM SITTING! :) Hope to hear from you soon! I work from home, so pet care fits into my routine really well. I’m not in meetings or anything all day, so my routine revolves around your pet’s schedule. :) I treat my clients’ homes with respect and care, just as I do my own home. I’ll clean up any messes your pet might make, as well as keep the home the way it was or better while you’re away.

“Danielle is absolutely wonderful and treats our elder dog like one of her own. She’s trustworthy, kind and flexible, and we’re lucky to have found her on Rover!”

“Amanda is the greatest person to watch your furbabies! She is so caring and reliable! I feel very comfortable with Amanda watching my cat peaches from time to time, I’m so thankful to have someone so compassionate! Amanda is also a wonderful doggy mom herself, her doggies are one of the greatest part of visiting. I really recommend booking with Amanda today!”

“Debra is a dog whisperer. She seemed to understand my baby’s need for reassurance.She treated my dog like one of her own. I am very protective of my baby but she put me at ease. Kept me updated with pictures all w/e. My dog was glad to see me but reluctant to leave her doggie playground. I hope I never have to leave him with anyone else. Thank you ?”

“We have tried several Rovers - no need to keep looking, our pup will always stay with Robin and yours should too. We had to drop him off with an infected paw, Robin sent lots of pictures, kept it clean, and made sure he got his medication. He came home tired from all the play time but not stressed like he has been when left with other people. Can’t recommend Robin enough!”

“I am very happy and feel very comfortable with Tina taking care of my furry baby! She is definitely an expert on caring for all kinds of dogs. She knows how to feed raw food. She sent pictures of my baby and told me funny stories about her. I am really glad that I booked with Tina! Will continue letting her look after Alpha next time!”

“Paula was easy to work with, dogs had an engaging outdoor area to explore and play in. Will be my local Rover for sure.”

“Pei and Will took amazing care of Duke! They sent us many pictures and videos and were so kind and caring. Duke is a happy-go-lucky golden retriever but for the first time ever he was sad when he came home because he missed them and their sweet dog Ivy so much. We will definitely hook again in the future!”

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Rachel since the 6th grade and have always known her to be a responsible, loving, and caring dog owner. She has watched my dogs many times and has taken great care of them. They are senior dogs and require a lot of time and attention as well as medications. Rachel is trustworthy and reliable. It is with the utmost confidence that I recommend Rachel for her services!”

“Radka is such a great sitter. She sent us lots of photos of our (very happy) dog. Our dog is usually shy towards people, but she LOVES Radka and runs right to her.”

“Ashley was so wonderful! My dogs were taken care of beyond my expectations. They came home happy, healthy, and tired (a blessing after our travels). She updated us with pictures and daily recaps and asked good questions; allowed a home visit prior to our drop-off; and was very welcoming to our two dogs.”

“Our Buckner absolutely adored his visit with Lauren for Christmas! She spoiled him rotten, so much so that he did not want to leave! ❤️🐶 We will, absolutely, contact her again for another sleepover. Thank you so much, Lauren, for all of your TLC!”

“Ashley is loving, responsible and communicative. Our dog was pretty out of practice being away from his family due to the pandemic. Ashley made sure our dog settled in and enjoyed his stay. Our dog came back happy, well-exercised and relaxed. Thank you, Ashley!”

“Lindsay was great! Chunk had a wonderful time playing with her pup Charlie. She sent us updates and pictures regularly and Chunk slept like a baby when we got him home. Will definitely be using her again.”
