Canine Southside B&B

Pet care experience

We are Joy and Thomas, and we live on the Southside of Richmond. We have a 8yo lab, Yuki, who loves to mert other dogs. Together we have decades of experience caring for animals, and we've gone through obedience training classes for dogs. We live in a great neighborhood. We have a large living room where the dogs can hang out and roam when they aren’t with us. We know how much we cherish Yuki, so we'll treat your dog the same way we’d want her to be treated. Our restrictions are no aggressive dogs, dogs who don’t do well with kiddos, unneutered/spayed and dogs who haven't been potty trained. We can’t wait to serve you!

My puppy was in great hands. She felt right at home with the family and I was very impressed with the consistent updates on how she was doing. I couldn’t have found anyone better. Thank you!

Information Joy D. would like to know about your pet

We love and watch all breeds and sizes. We have 2 children under 10, and a 8yo lab; so it's important that your pup has the ability to get along with children and other dogs. That being said, we'd love to know what makes your dog happy and comfortable. We want to make sure you're satisfied with your pups stay, and that they go home happy and rested!

A typical day

We love making your dog feel like family. Our kids are very gentle with all our pups. They love to play and also love to give treats when allowed.
