Dog Walkers in Mine Run, VA

About: Tail-Wagging Farm Retreat – Stress-Free Boarding with a Trainer’s Touch! Welcome to your pup’s dream vacation! I offer in-home boarding with all the comforts of a peaceful, clean, and dog-loving space — complete with fresh air, wide open acreage, and a calm, low-stress environment designed just for dogs. With over two years of experience as a full-time professional dog trainer and a lifetime spent around dogs of every breed, size, and temperament, I understand canine behavior deeply. I also share my home with four well-socialized dogs of my own, so your pup will have plenty of opportunities to socialize — or relax solo, depending on their personality. My home is sanitized, cozy, and fully stocked with everything your dog needs to feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, or snuggle up for belly rubs, they’ll get personalized care and attention every day. Think of it as a mini-retreat — a farm-style getaway with all the structure and love your dog deserves. Let your pup vacation while you do — they’ll thank you with tail wags and happy zoomies! 🐾 I am a full-time professional dog trainer that has made caring for and training dogs my livelihood. I board my trainees full time and would love to add a couple of regular clients or newbies to the crew! Keeping dogs safe, happy, and healthy is my number one priority as I am experienced in delivering the utmost care for your pup! I am also very experienced in tailoring my schedule to your dog’s needs of care.

“After we had an awful first experience with rover with another Dog Walker, Deborah restored our faith in this service. What an incredible human, let alone dog walker. Consistent, great communication, and our dog adores her. I would go back to her 10 times out of 10!”

About: We are those people our friends and family call to care for their fur babies. Animals have been a part of our lives growing up. We do have a 5 year old who too shares our love for animals. We work from home, our schedule allows us to take the pups out as many times as they need. As well as cuddle breaks and belly rubs. We are an animal loving family, we have two dogs of our own. Our dogs get along with other dogs. We like to consider our dogs very laid back and chill. But if you prefer for the dogs to remain separate that is not a problem at all. We do have a large yard, it is not fenced but we will always be sure to leash up before we go out.

About: I have been looking after all kinds of dogs for 8 years, my dogs, my friends dogs, and neighbors dogs. It has been good experience with all the different dogs i have watched. Im working part time at the moment, so I will have plenty of free time to spend with your fur babies and make sure they arnt sad when your gone. I have an open yard and walk my dogs making sure they get plenty outside time, and will do the same with your dogs just like I would mine.

“Autumn is a natural with dogs. Our Golden Retriever just loves her. I will certainly book again. Goes above and beyond ensuring your pet is taken care of.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own dogs and cats. I offer walking, sitting, and overnight stays with lots of love and attention. I’m reliable, gentle, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s a walk or a weekend stay, your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for! I have a part-time job with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to plan my days around pet care. This gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, and overnight stays throughout the week. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them safe and comfortable. In your home, I respect your space and stick to all care instructions. At my home, pets can enjoy a large yard and a small fenced area for safe outdoor time. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

My house is 2 stories i have a huge fenced in yard yard. I live on an acre of land. I love bringing dogs to the dog park just up the road. I also have comfy dog beds inside if you're dog is more of a homebody Dogs have full access to every room and all furniture in my house.

We have never had a dog get out but as I stated before safety is paramount and we like being prepared. My schedule is pretty open.

About: My life is filled with fantastic pet stories, and I’ve had and cared for pets my entire life. I had my amazing Maine Coon Simba who I cared for throughout his life. He was smaller than the average Maine Coon, but had all the confidence of the largest one. Now, my mini poodle Camo is always ready to cheer me up. He is very energetic, loving, and protective. I am no stranger to caring for high-energy pets! I also have experience with larger dogs such as White Shepards and Dobermans. As well as less common pets like hamsters, bearded dragons, and snakes. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! Apart from a few weeks out of July where I will be working all day, I will be available to sit morning through evening Monday through Saturday depending on distance. I am flexible to care for your pet in a way they are used to, as I know everyone has a different routine and I don’t want your pet to become overwhelmed by changes. I love to walk dogs on their own or in groups (depending on size and temperament). I am great with entertaining and playing with dogs to give them their fill of exercise and interaction.

About: I was raised with dogs (shelties, primarily) and now have a hobby farm with goats, dogs (german shepherds, a lab and a sheltie), ducks and a cat. I'm reliable and friendly and happy to follow whatever instruction and routine you need. Your pets will be well cared for and you'll receive plenty of photo updates while you're gone! I have a very flexible schedule, so I am able to accommodate nearly any routine your pet is used to, including frequent walks and potty breaks. I will work with you to keep your pet's schedule as close to what they are used to as possible. If boarding in my home, we have a fenced yard, plenty of area to go on leashed walks, and they will get plenty of one on one attention and care. I'm happy to do transport or add in a bath during your pet's stay so your life can be as simple as possible while you're trying to get out the door for your trip. Pet care is my full time job and priority. I can adapt as needed to make sure your pet keeps the routine they are comfortable with, even when you aren’t home. I will ask questions and take notes on your pets’ routine and then do my best to ensure that those habits are in place with me.

About: I began caring for dogs in their homes since I graduated high school at 16. I have owned my own business since then, providing in-home visits, dog walking, boarding, and also worked as a professional dog trainer with Ridgeside K9. I enjoy dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds and temperaments. I currently work a full time job, but I have a rotating schedule and only work 14 days/month. Send me a booking request and I will respond quickly with availability to care for your pet! I have a fenced in yard, and live in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of safe walking options. Dogs that board in my home must be crate trained.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a child. I have taken care of dogs, pigs, chickens and a cat. I can train puppies and I have taken care of special need puppies as well. I can do any day of the week, up until 5pm and no later than 6:30am. I prefer to have my weekends free but if I need to I can watch your dogs. I don't have a fenced in area but I have plenty of space around to walk the dogs and typically with my dogs I can let my dogs out without a leash and they stay on the property. I don't mind fenced in areas I always clean up after the dogs I watch.

“We feel very fortunate to have met Shannon, she's wonderful! Reliable, trust worthy, and full of great energy. She always takes her time with our doggo and makes each visit special. Also, we very much appreciate her professional background in both firefighting and emergency medical services as it speaks to her general character and mindset, and provides us peace-of-mind that if an emergency situation were to occur, our boy is in the best hands possible.”

You can rest assured that if your pets are in my care they will be well-loved and taken care of!
