Dog Boarding in Oakwood Cemetery, Richmond, VA

“According to my dog, Raye is top tier when it comes to hospitality. He's already asked to return to her home that's full of love and tasty treats. Thanks again for taking care of Rocco.”

“They were fantastic! They provided loving care, daily photo updates, and fun activities that left my pup exhausted and happy. 5 stars—will book again!”

“Donetta is the absolute best! She provided regular updates with photos over the course of my pup’s stay. She creates an environment that made my pup feel right at home. I could tell that Fiona had a great time because she came home completely exhausted. Donetta was also flexible when I needed to extend the reservation and additional night. Thank you so much. Highly recommend! Will definitely book again!”

“Aaren & Jordon were the absolute best!! Our pup is a nervous / shy girlie, but she warmed up to them about immediately!! ❤️ She stayed for a long weekend while we were out of town. Aaren sent us photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond taking our girlie on runs / walks all around town!! She has been so sleepy ever since she got home and can tell she had the best time!! Will absolutely be using Aaren and Jordon for all of our upcoming trips. Can’t thank you enough! ❤️❤️”

“Michaela was AMAZING! So sweet and attentive to Violet, and sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She administered Violet’s medications and special food three times a day with no issues and made everything feel effortless. Michaela was also very easy to schedule with and super responsive with communication. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Jeff was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it definitely was clear that zeph had a great time! Jeff was very communicative and spent plenty of time to get to know both me and Zeph on a meet and greet prior to our stay. He sent plenty of pictures and updates and catered to zephyrs routine which I'm so beyond grateful for! Zeph will absolutely be visiting his now Uncle Jeff again soon! Thank you so much for being so great with Zephyr!!!”

“We are so very happy to have found Amy and Happy Dog Pet Care! We just adopted our dog Petyon in September and we were worried about bringing her to a traditional kennel during our upcoming weekend away. Amy eased all of our worries! She is so wonderful with the pets she cares for and so obviously loves animals. We were able to set up a meet and greet beforehand so Peyton would be able to get acquainted with Amy (and Clodagh!) ahead of time, and Amy was fabulous with communicating with us before and during the trip. We loved getting text updates and looking at Facebook to see pictures of Peyton and all the fun she was having! We were so happy to see her getting so much personal attention and having such a great time. We will most definitely be using Amy's services in the future, for a weekend away or just to give Peyton some time to play with her new friends! We can't thank you enough, Amy!”

Nicki S.

“Hilary was great!! She has a great home and fenced back (and front!) yard. She only takes one dog at a time, so you can expect maximum attention and love. She sent us so many sweet pics of Huck with stories about all the fun they were having. He came home happy and healthy. I have already recommended her to my other dog mom friends! A+”

Joanna R.

“I didn’t know I needed a fairy dog mama until I booked with Jerimah!!! SHE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!! From the initial inquiry until I picked up Bishop, she was great. She provided constant communication, sent photos, and even shared highlights of their time together. I have already stated raving about how great she is. 10 out of 10, I would definitely recommend!!!”

Cary G.

“Alice came home from a long stay happy, relaxed, and waggy. Grateful to Ross and Ava for their thoughtful care, communication, flexibility, and laid back orientation. We (and by we, I do mean Alice…) will be back!”

Zoe & David C.

“Lauren is AMAZING. My dog is so old and she made so many accommodations for her to make sure she was comfortable. She kept me updated with photos and I just knew she was in great hands. Will absolutely be booking again with Lauren in the future!”

“Thanks you Amber and your husband for taking such good care of Toby. You sent us a picture of Toby everyday and he has come back home a happy dog 😊 I also want to thank you a ton for accommodating our flight delays. We picked Toby very late and you and your husband were very understanding. Thank you so much!!!”

About: Hi! I’m Taylor — a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all ages and personalities. I had my own dog for almost 16 wonderful years, and she was truly a beloved part of my life. After she passed, I began fostering because I couldn’t imagine life without dogs. I’ve now fostered several dogs, each with their own needs, quirks, and snuggle preferences. I’m patient, attentive, and love helping dogs feel safe, loved, and comfortable — whether that means giving extra cuddles, creating calm routines, or simply being a reassuring presence. I’m also a very active person, so if your dog enjoys long walks or even going for runs, I’m happy to match their energy. High-energy pups are always welcome! My goal is to make your dog feel at home and give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’d love to meet your furry family member and care for them like my own. I work 100% remote so spend the majority of my day at home and would be with your furry friend. I am able to easily bake in walks and playtime during my workday to ensure they get the attention and exercise they need! We have a nice porch and a fenced in yard for your pup to enjoy time outside without worry. We also have a crate here for up to 70 lbs dog and can safely crate your pet to ensure they are comfortable and safe if left alone.

“Ruben was GREAT with my very energetic, reactive dog. I am grateful for the videos and photos he sent, as well as the responsiveness overall. This was the first time boarding my bb and Ruben helped make that experience 10/10. Highly recommend!”

“Tiffany is amazing! This was the first time I boarded my Simba. I was so nervous. However, Simba was very well taken care of. Tiffany kept me updated with texts and pictures. She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”

“Peyton did an awesome job sending pictures and keeping me informed. My dog was relaxed and happy when I picked him up. Will definitely use her services again!”
