Dog Boarding Richmond

“Katrina was GREAT! We were a little worried because we'd not gotten a chance to meet her before we got into town and we were 8 hours away from home but as soon as we met her we knew that she'd take great care of the dogs. She has two smaller dogs of her own that she kept separate from ours while we were there, but by the time we picked Hope and Lou up a few days later everyone was hanging out together. She was quick to update when I checked in on the dogs, but really, I felt comfortable enough that I only texted twice. I would absolutely leave them with her again when I'm back in the area.”

“Heather is wonderful with Grainger. She is his “person” when he’s there. She was very flexible when our trip was delayed. Will definitely keep letting Grainger stay there when we are in town. ❤️”

“Angeline is phenomenal. I've used her and Dave a lot and time and time again they show how much they love Zoey and treat her like family. I'm very, very grateful for such wonderful people!”

About: What sets us apart is that dogs aren’t just pets in our home—they’re family. We’ve been caring for dogs together since 2013, and our animals live fully alongside us in everyday life, from couch snuggles to family adventures. Our dogs are regularly vetted, deeply loved, and yes—often spoiled. In addition to long-term pet care, we’re proud foster parents with The Road Home Animal Project and have lovingly fostered over 22 dogs (and counting), each with unique personalities and needs. This experience has made us patient, adaptable, and confident caring for dogs of all ages, energy levels, and backgrounds. Your pup won’t just be watched—they’ll be welcomed into a calm, happy home with a whole family devoted to their comfort and care. Pet care is woven into our daily life. My husband works remotely five days a week, I work part-time, and evenings and weekends are open—perfect for one-on-one attention, extra spoiling, and playtime with our dogs who love having new friends. We care for pets like family, offering fenced yard play, neighborhood walks, and crate options when needed. Our friendly, sometimes vocal dogs enjoy playmates, and pets are fully included in our home with supervision, comfy furniture, and attentive care.

“My dog seemed happy and comfortable when I picked her up. I also appreciated Chelsey being available on short notice when unexpected travel came up. Overall, it was a good experience.”

“My two dogs went to stay with Wendy for five days. Not only did she treat them like family but she kept me up to date with videos and pictures. She spoiled them beyond belief. Wendy has a real love for animals and I won’t hesitate to re-book with her. Don’t look any further than Wendy. She’s one of a kind”

“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”

About: I'm a huge animal lover - big and small! I've had dogs and cats my whole life. We have a sweet cat who absolutely loves every dog that comes through our home. We currently have a Great Dane and Great Pyrenees as well as chickens, 1 guinea pig, 2 rabbits and fish. I'm all about making sure our babies are happy and healthy and living the best life we can provide to them. After doing much research and lots of experience, I've learned a lot about a dog's language and how to respect them. I will treat your pets as if they are my own and will love on them just the same. I can't wait to meet your fur-babies! Rover is my full time job right now so I’m available to take care of your pup throughout the day as need be, whether that’s just hanging out or a walk or potty break, etc. I have a large fenced in yard and our 2 dogs will gladly keep your pup company and enjoy running around. I can easily crate if need be as well.

“Lauren provided daily updates and pictures, which was so greatly appreciated, especially by my kids, being away from the puppy for the first time.”

“Absolutely loved Stephanie and Stanley! What a relief to leave our baby in a loving home for a few days while we attended a conference at Oglebay Resort and extended our stay to spend time with our kids and grandson from out of state for Christmas. Stephanie was wonderful about following Buddy’s normal routine and sending me photos and updates, so I’d know how well he was doing. Can’t thank her enough. Just wish she lived near me. Happy Birthday, Stanley!”

“This was a great experience for our dog Lily, and therefore for us as well. This was our first time leaving our 3 year old golden, so we were a little apprehensive until we met Ashley and her 2 great dogs. We were gone for over a week and we never worried about our dog; we knew she was a good hands and getting lots of attention and great care. Ashley sent us pictures, videos, and updates. This was the first time Lily really had extended play with other dogs plus Ashley's kids; it was clear our dog was happy, safe, and probably didn't want to leave :-) Couldn't have asked for better care or a better experience. We highly recommend Ashley and hope to use her again soon!”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I've been caring for dogs and other pets for over 35 years, beginning in childhood and continuing throughout my adult life as a pet owner. Caring for animals has never felt like a job to me—it's something I truly enjoy. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel safe, loved, and at ease while their family is away. I'm patient, attentive, and reliable, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for puppies and senior dogs and understand the extra attention, gentleness, and consistency they often require. Whether a pet needs an energetic play session, a leisurely walk, medication reminders, or simply a calm companion, I'm happy to adapt to their individual needs. My goal is to provide pet parents with peace of mind, knowing their beloved family member is receiving loving, dependable care in a safe and comfortable environment. Pet care is woven into my daily routine. As a dog owner, I spend time every day walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for my own pups. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and understand how important it is for pet parents to know their pets are in caring, dependable hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make it a priority to provide plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and consistency with their usual routine. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is being cared for as if they were a member of the family. When pets stay in my home, I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and part of the family. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions provided by the owner. Pets receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and supervised care throughout their stay. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners can have peace of mind while they're away. I have a fenced in backyard (pictured) where they can run freely and play while staying safe. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, potty breaks, exercise or playtime, and plenty of companionship during each visit. I take time to learn each pet's personality and needs so they receive individualized care. I am respectful of my clients' homes and always ensure everything is secure before leaving. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and make every pet feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for whether they're staying with me or I'm visiting them in their own home.

“We had a wonderful experience with Dana. We were hesitant to leave our new puppy with anyone, but based off her reviews we felt reasonably comfortable with her. After meeting her, and her dogs, the worries dissolved. She genuinely cares and enjoys her time with the animals. She kept in contact and sent us several updates and photos of Mila. It really helped alleviate the anxiety over leaving her with someone new. We had an overall great experience with Dana and definitely recommend her to anyone. We will be booking her again when we need to board her.”
