Dog Boarding in Duncan, VA

“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful with Zelda. She took such great care of Zelda and she had so much fun that Zelda just wanted stay when we came to pick her up. Elizabeth took videos and pics to send to me while we were away which was so reassuring. It was fantastic and I plan on having Zelda stay there again every time I need go on a trip. So thankful!”

“Angela and her mom were very loving and kind to my Nelly. Quick responses and picture updates throughout the stay. She ever took in my dog last minute on Easter Sunday. The Rover app shows the location to be closer to Blacksburg that it really is but there weren’t many other options that were compatible for Nelly so it was worth the drive! I would use this sitter again if I was in the area.”

“As always Linda and David did a wonderful Job watching our bulldog Roscoe. When we picked him up he was sad to leave their home. We are happy we found them!”

Samantha Underwood R.

“Sara took such great care of Murphy—she’s so responsible and attentive! Murphy really had a wonderful time there.”

“Rocky loved his 3 night stay here! Richard and Kelly were quick to respond and I felt comfortable leaving Rocky here. They took him on walks through the woods every day which I know he loved! I would likely only recommend them to people who have outdoor dogs, or dogs that don't mind noise/dogs barking. Rocky is an outside dog so I am certain had no issues sleeping outside or listening to the other dogs bark in the kennels all day. I don't think a dog that is used to being indoors and a in a single dog house would love it here like Rocky did!”

“Walt kept our boy, Teddi, for four days. Teddi is a 3 yo intact English Shepherd who has never spent a night away from us. Teddi is a very well behaved and friendly boy but we were a bit anxious how this would go. Walt kept us well informed on how Teddi was doing. Walt gave Teddi great care and a lot of attention. When we returned to pick up Teddi, it was obvious that he and Teddy had bonded very well. We are very pleased with the care that Walt provided and will certainly use him again.”

“Jenny is the absolute best dog sitter! My dog loved staying with her. Jenny kept us updated everyday and took amazing care of my dog. She is extremely easy to work with and catered to all the needs of my dog. I have already rebooked more stays for my dog with her! Seriously people do not look any further she is the one to take care of your doggie daycare or overnight stays. She is qualified and cares so much about dogs!!”

Byron H.

“Communicated well. Worked well with our schedule. Very pleased with service. Would use her services again. This was April’s first time being boarded and considering that she is a puppy we appreciated the understanding and patience Sarah provided.”

Kim R.

“We’ve used Nancy a few times for boarding our golden retriever pup and she is fantastic! We love her bubbly and welcoming personality. We’ve always felt like our pup has been in great hands with exceptional care. Highly recommend!!!”

Joseph H.

“Emma took great care of Strider and I could tell he felt right at home at her place. Plus he loved playing with her sweet pups!”

Megan S.

“Kind, intelligent, flexible. My dogs (even my grumpy dog) liked him!”

About: I always grew up with my own animals and knew I wanted to to be a veterinarian one day. When I was in high school I started my own dog walking business to make some money and then heard a doggy daycare was opening up in town. I was the first to apply! I worked there for a while until I started at a local veterinarian at 16. Now I am going into my second year of vet school and wanted a way to fill some of my free time. Due to my busy class schedule I only have a cat right now, so I really enjoy spending extra time with dogs! My goal is to adopt a pit bull mix by the end of vet school because they have a special place in my heart! Over the past seven years, I’ve had the privilege of working with animals in a variety of settings from general care to specialty medicine to emergency and my passion for them only continues to grow. I'm skilled in administering medications and injections, caring for both puppies and senior pets, assisting with more challenging or nervous animals, and understanding dog behavior and body language. During the summer I’m working two days a week at Virginia Tech's Veterinary Teaching Hospital so the rest of the time I can devote to pet sitting! Unfortunately, my schedule does change week to week. During the school year my schedule also varies as labs are different days/times every week, however, they are only two hours long so I am flexible for the rest of the day! I also keep my schedule up to date on Rover! I'm available most days. Just message me about times and I will get back to you as soon as possible! I currently live in an apartment. I have one cat and my roommate has a cat. They both do well with dogs and will mainly keep to themselves and stay in our rooms. We are trying to socialize them more to dogs to get them more comfortable for when we adopt one in the next year! In our apartment we have two floors so we can keep the animals together when we are home and then separate them with a baby gate when we go out. There is a large unfenced backyard behind my apartment that is a communal space and lots of walking trails around including the Huckleberry Trail!

“We felt very comfortable leaving our 10 lb Cavapoo with Kurt. We’ve used Rover a few times before, but this was our best experience. He sent us some pictures to show that she had settled in which was very nice. Will definitely use again.”

About: Hello! I love all types of pets and currently have two dogs of my own. I am a student at Virginia-Maryland college of veterinary medicine trying to earn some extra money by doing what I love, playing with pets. I have experience with all types of pets at varying sizes and personalities. During my undergraduate career, I raised two Seeing Eye Dogs and helped other raisers with training. During this time, I worked at a veterinary hospital, participated in animal specific events like vaccination clinics, and groomed. From healthy puppies and kittens to seniors who need medication, I have seen it all and am prepared to help with whatever your pet needs. I hope I can meet your fur babies and shower them with love while your away. As someone who owns two dogs, pet care is a priority in my life. Both of my pups get plenty of one-on-one time as well as long walks and enrichment in the house. During the day, the pups are crated while I am at school, but if my boyfriend is off of work they get to run around and play. As soon as I get home the dogs get taken out and fed. Along with daily care, I take care of all of their grooming and medical needs as well. I currently live in apartment complex which has a dog play area for your furry friends to get plenty of exercise. There is also a trail connected to the complex which will be utilized for long walks and plenty of sniffing opportunities. Both of my pups are very friendly and would be happy to be your pet’s playmate during their stay.

“Lindsey was so amazing with Zade and he had the best time! I didn’t have to worry for a second about him being in good hands because she was so great with him! With out a doubt will use Lindsey again if needed in the future!”

“Carmen did great with our dog Cody. It was fun so see the pictures and videos she sent while we were away. It looks like he had as much fun as we did. Thank you Carmen!”

Joanne F.

“I was so happy to bring the pups to someone who I can trust and they will be in a great environment. Holly was great to let me bring them for a meet and greet to be more familiar with everything/everyone there. Holly accommodated my early leave and later evening weekend pickup.”

“Nancye is absolutely amazing! She loved and spoiled our Josey as if he was her own. I loved that we had the opportunity to have a meet and greet before we took our trip. She took him on walks. He loves car rides and she took him to get ice cream with her getting him a pup cup. It was our 1st time leaving him with someone new and she sent us pictures and updated all along the way. Nancye has such a love for fur babies and it shows. Would definitely recommend her.”

Nikki G.

“Jessie is hands down the best sitter for my Bella. She sent pictures and updates and we even received a report card at pickup. Bella was so happy when she returned home. I wish we had found her sooner we will definitely be sitting with Jessie again.”

Adrienne R.

“Deann was very attentive to the needs of our dog. We really appreciate that especially during the summer thunderstorms. She carefully followed all of the instructions we gave for him, and made sure he was safe and happy.”
