“Matt was absolutely wonderful our Dalmatian, Juniper! He was also so accommodating when our flight home was cancelled resulting in us picking her up a couple hours later than originally scheduled. I would highly recommend him if you ever need a sitter for your dog, and would not hesitate to book with him in the future.”


“Nicole was a fantastic dog sitter! She is very communicative and has the best set up for dogs. It's very clear how much she loves and cares for the dogs in her home. Will definitely be using Nicole's services in the future.”


“Danielle was awesome! She accommodated me pretty last minute when travel plans changed and made it super easy to schedule a meet and greet. Her dogs were well-behaved and played great with my dog. She was super communicative while I was gone and accommodating with pickup. Amazing sitter and I’ll definitely be using her again!”


“Happy Dog Pet Care (Amy Mawyer) kept our 13 year old mixed breed terrier for 2 days/nights while we were out of town. We made an appointment beforehand to check out the home and also so our dog would already know the place when we dropped her off. HDPC was conveniently located for us near the West End of Richmond and right off of 295 at 95. Amy has one small dog and one or two cats of her own. My dog got along with them fine. There were 2 other larger dogs there the same weekend which was not a problem as our dog gets along with other dogs and is older so she pretty much just sleeps a lot these days. Amy had actually been contacted about keeping another dog the same weekend as my dog but the breed had aggressive tendencies so she did not take the dog for the weekend. She notified me of this beforehand and kept me posted on things. I received an e-mail each day I was gone telling me how my dog was doing. Amy makes homemade dog treats for the dogs and my dog even got doggy ice cream one day! The home was clean and there was water set out for the dogs both inside and out. There is a large fenced in backyard which my dog enjoyed. We will definitely be using HDPC and DogVacay again!!”



“From start to finish, Cyndi was amazing! I don’t know about you, but I feel anxiety around leaving my dog in homes and she put me at ease right from the beginning. She sent tons of pictures throughout his stay and would send updates which I appreciated. She made sure Kobe was exercised, fed, and loved while I was away. I will certainly book again!”


“Jeff was great to work with! He responded quickly to all messages and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. He provided daily photo or video updates and Carmen felt good when she got home. We will definitely request him again!”


“During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!”

“Michelle did a wonderful job watching our boy Remy! He can be very shy and nervous in new environments but Michelle made him feel right at home. Loved getting the updates and photos while we were out of town. Highly recommend and will book again :)”


“Alexandra boarded our 14 year old super senior pug and she did really well. She used to go to a large boarding facility and when she came home she was very out of sorts and unsettled. Diamond came right back home and settled right back in so it seems that she was happy while we were gone. Alexandra was super responsive and sent daily updates. Overall it was a great experience for us and apparently for her as well :)”


“Amy was fantastic! We just moved to the area and she took care our fur babies during the craziness. She was so welcoming and took care of them like they were her own. She will definitely be our go to.”


“We had another great experience with Sarah as she took care of our little dog, Dash, for almost a week. She sent pictures of him throughout his stay, and he looked content. She kept an eye on some of his minor medical issues and was ready to apply medicine if needed. We were thankful that she also coordinated with our sister-in-law for pick up when we had not yet returned from our trip. All went smoothly. We hope to bring Dash back when we take future trips.”


“My puppy Leo loved staying with Kat and I’m also really satisfied about it, I will definitely bring him again to her and her puppies ! Thank you.”


“Thank you so much to Le’Quitta and her family for taking such great care of Boss ☺️ She kept me updated with pictures and communicated well. Will definitely be rebooking! We knew he had a good time when he slept the majority of the day when we got him home❤️ Thanks again!!!”


“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”


“From beginning until end, the whole process with Aimee was amazing. We had a last minute family emergency and had to fly out the next day. She was very accommodating and made us feel comfortable that Ripley was in good hands. Aimee's home is great. Massive backyard, and lots of area for dogs to run around in. She has a few dogs herself- they were wonderful. Ripley made new friends and we couldn't be happier. Aimee provided daily photos which helped us know Ripley was enjoying herself. She also took Ripley to a park/small creek one day (Ripley loves the water) We highly recommend you trust Aimee to watch your dogs. We definitely will be reaching out in the future.”


“Jesse has done a wonderful job taking care of my 7 year old Samoyed! He provides good photo updates, his dogs are friendly, and drop-off/pick-up is always easy. I would highly recommend, and look forward to using his services again in the future.”



“Our dog, Riley had a great time with Hilary. He loved going to the dog park! I liked the fact that Hilary sent updates so I knew he was healthy and happy.”



“Amanda was great! My pup had so much fun. So much to the point I didn’t think she wanted to leave. :) Amanda has a lot of experience with dogs because she has two rescues. I really trusted her and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my baby with Amanda again.”


“My pups came home happy and healthy! Maria followed all instructions given and was very communicative and sent pictures and video each day. She had a lovely outdoor area for them to play and run around and her house is set up to be a doggy wonderland. I would feel incredibly comfortable in having my pups stay with her again.”


“Pamela and Paul were great at taking care of Oliver and keeping us updated on how he was doing. Oliver has separation anxiety which can make it difficult to find a sitter, but Oliver really enjoy his time with them. He showed very little anxiety and got along really well with their dog Marlowe. Pamela and Paul did a fantastic job and we were definitely be coming back!”
