I don’t know how I became that dog mom that sprinkles probiotic powder and salmon oil on her dog’s food teice a day and mostly gives him carrots for treats with a 2 whimzee treat max. 😬 Oh! And don’t forget the zyrtec 2x a day delicately rolled in pill pockets for easy swallowing! 🤭That being said, any parents of meaty couch potato pitties with allergies might understand! But that doesn’t mean a Rover sitter will! However, Raye didn’t blink an eye when I walked through all the bells and whistles of my dog’s regimen which I realized had become quite a list due to different needs! 😳 Raye immediately took it in stride and took the best care of my sweet itchy boy for almost two weeks! She’s our fave and always will be! Your pup will be in great hands with Raye and will get plenty of socialization (and love!) from the paw-ty crew that ends up congregating under her roof!

Raye is a dog whisperer! She was a wonderful caretaker for our elderly companion. Our dog rarely switches his scenery up outside of our home so it was comforting seeing him adjust so easily with Raye - who ensured his safety and comforbitjty including a few extra needs of his because of his age. We received daily updates and was able to enjoy our time away while our dog enjoyed new friends at Rayes house. We give doggy adventures above 5 stars and will be back again. Thank you!

Raye was amazing! My dog was injured the day before boarding with Raye for the first time and she took amazing care of him, including applying his medicine and monitoring his injury with good updates!

This was my first time boarding my dog Cairo, and Raye made the entire experience so much less stressful. She sent daily photos and updates, had excellent communication, and truly went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for. It's clear that she's passionate about animals, and it gave me so much peace of mind while we were out of town. I’d highly recommend Raye to anyone!

Raye took excellent care of our senior dog and sent regular photo and video updates during her stay. She is a delightful person and we highly recommend her to care for your fur babies.

Schedule

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!

Safety, trust & environment

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.

Pets

A typical day

At Doggy Adventures, I take pups out for fun walks along the James River or through the trails at Forest Hill Park (or any other trails). We play fetch, explore local parks, or just enjoy some downtime together. I try to make each day exciting and tailored to their personality.
