Doggy Day Care in Newtowne West, Richmond, VA

“Awesome. My pup loves Amy more than me I feel like. She always comes back happy and clean even after playing all day with the other dogs. Also very flexible with my crazy schedule with pick up and drop off times. Choose Amy!!”

“Awesome communication and care for Milo. I got several pics and updates during his daycare time. I’d definitely use Matt again in the future.”

“Chili had a great time with Emily and playing with her dog. He was smiling in every pic. :) Kept me up to date with videos and pics, which is always so appreciated.”

“Chelsea provided great daycare services for my puppy. Sent pics and always provided updates during pick-up about how his day went and any pertinent things she noticed which is super helpful since I am still learning my new pup as well.”

About: I am a firm believer that dogs are our best friends. Dogs deserve all the love and devotion they show us. I would love to drop by for a quick visit or a walk, or if you need care for longer my wife and our dog Belle would love to host your furry friend. Our backyard, quiet neighborhood, and proximity to the James River Park System is perfect for play time and longer walks. If you’re looking for a reliable friendly caretaker and or a fun place to stay for your pet, look no further. This is my full time commitment at the moment so pet care will be my top priority. My dog Belle gets all of the attention and won’t mind sharing. I have a fenced in yard at home that I share with my wife and our dog Belle. When it’s not too hot Belle gets a long walk every day, and can go in and out to the yard as she pleases. I will ensure I give the same level of care to your dog as I would my own both in and out of my home.

“Very accommodating and good communication!”

“Sarah is wonderful. She gives my puppy lots of love and attention. She has also answered some questions and offered me some advice that I have found to be helpful.”

“I was so glad I was able to depend on AJ for his daycare support with Ace. He was very helpful, kept conversation and made my first time a great experience. I highly recommend you book with AJ. I look forward to booking with him very soon.”

“Taylor took the best care of our little floof Auggie, and her pup River is now Auggies new best friend! So grateful for Taylor’s care and treating Auggie like her own. Highly recommend!!!”

About: Hi there! I'm a young professional who's grown up surrounded by animals ever since I can remember.

“Salis was great! She took time to do a meet and greet ahead of time for my anxious and reactive dog. She responded quickly and sent me updates throughout the day. She said Cassidy got along well with her and her roommates. We have already booked more stays with her!”

“Danielle and Matt were amazing - so responsive and helpful with our dog despite the last minute ask. They kept us updated about how he was doing throughout the day as well which is always appreciated!”

“Kerry took such great care of my dog Indy. She sent me updates and pictures often which made me feel he was safe and having fun. I could see how easy her dog got along with my Indy and he seemed to enjoy his time there. Kerry was east to get ahold of and got back to me quickly each time I messaged her. I highly recommend Kerry’s services as she is very experienced with dogs and very nurturing!”

“Jamie was great with my German Shepherd! This was the first time Ada was away from me or her 3 siblings. Little nervous the first day but after that she looked forward to going with Jamie once she saw him. Her acceptance of him made me more relaxed. Very glad I found Jamie on Rover!”

“I’m beyond impressed with Lequitta’s pet sitting services! She took such great care of my pit bull puppy, providing him with love, attention, and structure while I was away. Not only did she ensure he was well-fed and exercised, but she also worked diligently on potty training, making remarkable progress during her time with him. Her patience, dedication, and consistency were evident, and I could see the positive results. Lequitta’s professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I highly recommend her services for anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”

“Ariel was absolutely wonderful taking care of Georgie all day! Her own dogs were sweet and well behaved, and Georgie adored being a member of the pack, and playing with her daughter. My absolute highest recommendation!!”

“Sydney was amazing! She was so kind and sweet. Cora seemed to really enjoy her stay and was very happy when I picked her up. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my dedication to understanding and adapting to each animal's unique needs. My experience spans puppy training, senior pet care, and working with bully breeds, so I’m well-equipped to handle a range of personalities and requirements. I approach each pet with patience, consistency, and empathy, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in my care. With a background that emphasizes behavioral understanding and hands-on care, I can provide a nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s age, temperament, and specific needs. Incorporating pet care into my remote daily and weekly routine is a natural fit, as it encourages regular breaks and fresh air while working from home. I start each morning with a walk, allowing your dog to release energy and get some exercise. Throughout the day, I schedule a few outdoor breaks for short walks or play sessions, keeping both of us active and recharged. Weekly, I add longer outings or visits to local parks, creating dedicated time for exercise and bonding. This blend of structured and flexible pet care activities not only ensures your pet’s well-being but also supports my commitment to increasing outdoor exercise. In my home, I provide a welcoming and nurturing environment for pets, ensuring they have plenty of attention and care tailored to their individual needs. With my experience in training puppies, providing senior pet care, and caring for bully breeds, I can address a wide range of pet needs, from active play to gentle support. Additionally, my home's proximity to Chimborazo and Libby Hill parks offers pets easy access to beautiful, green spaces where they can explore, exercise, and enjoy the outdoors, creating a balanced and enriching experience for them.

“Brooke was awesome! She followed my instructions and maintained open communication. Cassidy definitely settled right in with her and her husband. Will definitely book again!”

About: Hi! I've looked after a couple of my friend’s cats and dogs now and then, and have fostered sweet Stormi for ~3 months. Now I'm looking for more opportunities! I've got a pet-friendly apartment if you need a drop off but I'm happy to drop by yours too to look after your pets :) I currently work remote with a flexible schedule, so I'm pretty open for drop ins either mornings, afternoons or evenings. Working remotely allows me to look after your pets for longer periods too if you need more than a drop in! I have space in my apartment for two cats or one dog at a time. I currently don't have pets of my own so if yours prefer to go solo, they'll be comfortable here!
