Awesome experience! Cav took amazing care of our dog, and we loved all of the updates and pictures. 10/10 would rebook and I recommend him to all of my friends and family.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 02, 2026

Cav and his wife took great care of our sweet Parsley while we were in Luray for a quick family getaway this past weekend. They showed us the area where Parsley would be staying, safe and clean with little white boards for each doggy detailing their needs (they had only one other canine customer at the time that Parsley was there). Their land is beautiful and they sent us pictures of Parsley while she was enjoying her time with them. Cav and his wife are kind and professional humans who are clearly committed to taking care of the dogs staying with them. We will be back!

I truly can’t thank or recommend Cav and his family highly enough! I have a very strong, excitable Pitbull mix whose regular sitters were all booked and Cav was the answer to my prayers. He has an excellent setup that Scotty adored (we call it “camp”) and an obvious mastery of canines from a deep breadth of experience. I felt completely comfortable leaving Scotty in his care and will do so again next time we are in the area. Cav was responsive, communicative, and captured the hands-down cutest picture of Scotty ever. Thank you again, Cav!

Schedule

All dogs are cared for all day with multiple opportunities to play outside, go on walks around our 5 acres and play with other dogs depending on temperament. Dogs will receive multiple break times throughout the day, averaging every hour to 2 hours and can spend as much time outside as they would like in our fully fenced in dog specific area. Pictures will be sent each night of boarding around 7pm and once per day of daycare. A minimum of 30 minutes of structured exercise daily is included in all boarding and daycare. Spots are limited to 3 dogs per day to ensure your dog is receiving the one on one attention that they all want and deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a full fenced in dog specific area that directly connects to my basement setup where dogs will have the ability to spend time out of kennels and play with other well mannered dogs if you would like. We are available any day of the week with preferably a day notice and around most holidays as we do not travel for most throughout the year. All dogs are monitored by cameras 24/7 while in the kennels and outside play area as well as tracked by GPS collars any time they are outside. Please message us with any questions and we would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Pets

A typical day

Days will start with a break first thing in the morning followed by breakfast and an opportunity to play outside or out in our training floor. Toys, bones and other specialized stimulating games are available to add on if you so choose. For high energy dogs or those that want to stimulate your dogs while on their stay, ask about out optional slow feeder games and lick pads, they are great way to keep them busy and challenge their brains.
