Doggy Day Care in Forest Hill Terrace, Richmond, VA

“Very accommodating and good communication!”

About: I’ve been caring for my own dogs and cats—as well as my neighbors’ pets—since childhood. I value creating a calm, safe, and enriching experience for every animal. I’m conscientious and detail-oriented, and aim to provide a retreat-like stay for your dog—giving you peace of mind and returning them to you happy and tired! I work from home, which allows me to easily coordinate feedings, walks, playtime, and any necessary medications. I also prefer to spend most of my time at home, so your dog will receive lots of dedicated attention and love! I have a large yard that’s securely fenced in both the front and back, giving your dog plenty of safe space to roam and play. When I’m home, I often leave the back door open so dogs can come and go as they please. I value clear communication and will provide consistent updates. I understand the trust involved in allowing someone else to care for a beloved pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will treat both your pet and your home with the utmost care and respect. I often board several dogs at a time so am only able to accept dogs that are well socialized. I also am not able to accommodate dogs that are not fully house trained or mark inside the home.

“Matt is responsive and punctual. He goes above and beyond and has updated his house and yard to be the best pup party zone ever! My dog and I are glad we found him.”

“This was Luna’s first day with Julie. She was happy when I picked her up and seemed to enjoy herself. We have another day scheduled in a week.”

About: Hi there! My name is Gaby and my partner’s name is Sawyer and if you’re looking for someone to love your baby(ies) and treat them like their own - you’ve found the right people! We have both grown up surrounded by pets our whole lives, are currently proud dog parents to two boys, and have yet to come across a pet we aren’t obsessed with. We know how stressful it can be to trust someone with your fur baby so we try to ease any concerns as best we can with constant communication including updates and pictures so you never feel like your pet is too far! 🥰 My partner and I have both taken care of dogs of all kinds, from senior dogs to raising 3+ litters - we’ve seen it all and we’re not worried about getting our paws dirty. Our background with dogs means we are both comfortable administering medication and caring for any special needs. We’ve dealt with gentle giants, high energy pups, cranky senior dogs, and more. On top of that, we have a fenced in backyard for our furry guests to roam around in! I work from home every day so I will be with your pet all day, keeping them constant company! Aside from having the fenced in backyard which they will have access to, we go on at least two walks a day, sometimes a third in the afternoon depending on the heat. I have a fenced in backyard and two friendly dogs to keep your furry friend company. We have separate floors and rooms so we have more than enough space for crates and to keep dogs separate if needed! We are big snugglers though!!

“Matt was an incredible host! He went above and beyond taking care of our pup. We will be using him as much as possible to take care of our boy!”

“Thanks for hosting Suki for a fun and safe day!”

“Ariel was absolutely wonderful taking care of Georgie all day! Her own dogs were sweet and well behaved, and Georgie adored being a member of the pack, and playing with her daughter. My absolute highest recommendation!!”

“Despite the late request, Ross answered very quickly and was able to arrange a brief meeting the same night for Murdoch and his dog to meet. The day after, we left Murdoch with Ross and Ava and everything went monthly with a few pictures of Murdoch's day. I recommend Ross and Ava !”

“Ruben was great with my Lily and it was a bonus that she had other dogs to play with. She’s a puppy so it’s important that she socializes as much as possible with other dogs and have a place to run around in. We will be booking again”

“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.”

“My dog loved going to Cindy’s for day care. I can tell because he always runs into her house when we get there. Cindy was great, sent lots of pics and actually got him to eat his food. Lots of other dogs to play with too. I felt at ease while I was at work knowing that he was taken care of! Look forward to sending him there again.”

Jenny S.

“Reese's stay was amazing with Nicholas and his pup! Our girl is high energy and came home tired and happy. We got pictures of her having her best day both outside playing and inside napping, which we appreciated on this hot summer day. We will definitely be repeat customers. Thank you!”

About: I have raised several fantastic and loveable pets from months after birth and kept them alive and thriving! I love giving them proper attention and fun while ensuring rules and safety are adhered to! I currently spend every day at home taking care of my own pets and ensuring they are in a loving and safe environment. I also don't go out a whole lot or for long periods of time so there I always get to spend time loving my pets! I have a fenced backyard for outside play time and space for indoor eating and relax time as well. I also have plenty of snacks (if allowed), toys, and other pet goodies!

“Great pet sitter! Natalie was prompt in responding and sent regular updates throughout the visit. My dog seems to have had a great time. Definitely recommend this sitter.”

Trang D.

“Ashley did a great job caring for our dog for the day - flexible with drop off and good communication! Thanks!”

“Chris was great with Mochi! She enjoyed being there and the company of his dogs. Chris sent frequent updates and even asked if Mochi will have issues with him using the vacuum before doing so. Overall great experience.”

About: 🚨📢❗️✨ Quick Info: -Meet & Greets required before booking. -Multiple pups often booked at a time. -Pickup/Drop-off: Mon–Sun, 7:00 AM–8:30 PM -Currently unable to accept unneutered or non-spayed dogs. Hi there, I’m Raven, and I’m glad you’re here. At Doggy Adventures, my mission is to create safe, joyful, and unforgettable adventures for dogs while giving owners peace of mind. Every pup in my care gets personal attention, plenty of love, and an environment where tails never stop wagging. Pet care is a big part of my daily life. With Doggy Adventures, I spend most of my day making sure every dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. That being said, I usually have a lot of dogs in my care, and because of that and limited staff, I’m unable to accept dogs with severe anxiety or puppies who may need more one-on-one attention. However, feel free to reach out, and we can chat to see if it's a good fit! When caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm and safe environment where they feel comfortable and well taken care of. I follow any specific routines or requests you have to keep things consistent for your pet, from feeding and bathroom schedules to playtime and cuddle sessions.

“Took Jasper for some great walks and he seemed like he had a great time! Wouldn't hesitate to leave him again”

“Caroline is very friendly and responsive. She immediately clicked with my mini poodle after their first meeting. She sends great pictures and video updates so you know how your baby is doing throughout the day. I would definitely recommend her for daycare.”
