Doggy Day Care in Richmond

“Amanda and Cody take such great care of my pup. She is always excited when we arrive at their house and rushes to the front door. They have been so great with my schedule, they share updates and pictures each week. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an excellent sitter for their fur baby/ies.”

“I have a cautious/hesitant dog and Elizabeth was more than accommodating to ensure she felt comfortable in the new environment. I also received pictures during every daycare stay! My girl LOVED her stay and she got along really well with their wonderful dog. Would recommend 100% :)”

About: Hi! I’m Kye, a dedicated animal caregiver with years of hands-on experience in vet med, dog walking, training, and kennel work. I currently work as a kennel tech at an animal hospital and boarding facility, where I care for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. Whether it’s administering medication, ensuring a safe play environment, or just giving plenty of love and attention, I treat every dog like my own. Speaking of my own pup—I have a 9-month-old black Lab named Bug, so I fully understand the importance of exercise, mental stimulation, and routine in keeping dogs happy and well-behaved. I spend a lot of time outdoors and love taking dogs on walks, hikes, and fun adventures tailored to their needs. Whether your pup loves to explore or prefers a cozy cuddle session, I adapt to what makes them feel safest and happiest. With my professional background, I’m experienced in handling high-energy dogs, senior pups, shy or nervous dogs, and everything in between. I’m comfortable with multiple-dog households, basic training reinforcement, and special care needs such as administering medications or working with reactive dogs. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible by ensuring your pet is in trusted, capable hands. Let’s chat about how I can provide the best care for your furry family member—I’d love to meet them! Here’s some extra reasons to consider me: Upon request (at no extra cost) I offer baths/brushing, long hikes/walks, extra cuddle time, fun mentally stimulating games, soft training, daily update photos, park trips, watering plants, deep cleaning for your home, recurring daycare or home visits, etc! Due to my job at an animal hospital, I prefer at least a week's notice so I can plan around my schedule. That said, I’m usually very flexible and able to dedicate plenty of time to ensure your pet gets the enrichment and play they need! If your pup is comfortable being home during my 5-7 hour shifts, there’s no issue at all. Otherwise, feel free to ask about my work schedule, and we can coordinate the best plan for your pet’s care! I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they’re in my home or their own. My approach is tailored to each pet’s needs, routine, and personality to ensure a stress-free experience. **In Clients’ Homes:** When caring for pets in their home, I maintain their regular schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special care they require. I provide updates, photos, and videos to keep owners at ease while they’re away. I also handle medication administration, basic grooming (if requested), and training reinforcement to ensure consistency. **In My Home:** If a pet stays with me, they’ll have a structured but fun environment, plenty of outdoor time, and lots of attention. I make sure they have a safe space to relax, and if needed, I can accommodate crate training or specific routines. I have experience with high-energy dogs, puppies, seniors, and dogs with special medical needs, so I adjust my care accordingly. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, my goal is to provide a loving, attentive experience so they feel secure and happy while you’re away.

“We contacted Sarah very last minute. She was willing to help us in a pinch, and tried to create options when we had no other plan. We ended up not using her services, because she lived a bit too far away. Nevertheless, we paid her. Her willingness to help us impressed us that much.”

Robyn A.

“If I could give this woman 10 starts I would! She is so amazing and works so well with your schedule. I had to extend my pickup time by 3 hours and she accommodated. I will 100% be coming back.”

“Holly was great with Rudy. He can be a little needy in the morning when he doesn't get exercise and she immediately adapted to his needs and took him out to play and took him on long walks. Would definitely book Holly again!”

Amy G.

“Copper showed he had very good care! He had a good time because Hope gave him his walk, let him be near her and gave him treats. He is resting well today!! Hope was always attentive to our messages back and forth with her.”
