“Kery was a wonderful dog sitter. She was communicative, and sent photos and updates throughout his stay. She was warm and friendly. Her home was so much fun for my dog, she has chickens and is near the woods, has some small dogs, too, and a big picture window for him to watch what was happening in the garden. I'm so happy to have found her and know that Shadow was right at home while I was gone. I would definitely recommend her to others and will be sure to use her help in the future.”


“Thank you Jeff for your amazing sitting services! We couldn’t be more happier with the experience! From the start, communication was prompt, professional, and consistent. Throughout the stay, we received regular updates, and photos, that gave us complete peace of mind. Nash was clearly comfortable and well-cared for. We were confident that Nash was in good hands while we were away. We truly appreciate the level of care and attention Jeff provided and we will absolutely be using his services again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog sitter!”


“My dogs always enjoy going to Maria’s house. It’s not a kennel but a house where my dogs get the same love and affection as at home. Been there three times and will use Maria again for our next trip”


“Amruta is so kind and sweet to our girl, Bear. When your dog is left with her, you know she’s being well looked after, and being shown undivided attention. I will forever be a repeat client.”


“Loretta took care of our dog like he was her own for the week we needed to be away. Regular updates, lots of pictures, and lots of love. He did so much better than regular boarding and clearly had fun (both with Loretta and her dogs). We really appreciate how well cared for our big boy was, and will definitely be back!”


“Nicole was absolutely amazing!!! She was so responsive, sent lots of pics and I’ve never seen my dog so happy in someone else’s home! 10/10 experience!!! Thank you Nicole for taking such perfect care of Misha!!!”


“Cherissa was an amazing host. I had a cancellation last minute with a sitter due to an emergency and she was available and so easy to work with. She shared pictures and updates of our puppy multiple times throughout the day of what my fur baby was doing. I will definitely be booking with Cherissa again.”


“Janette took amazing care of our Bernese Mountain Dog. We knew she’d be in great hands from the moment we did a meet and greet. During the stay, Janette sent photos and videos and was incredibly thorough and responsive. Couldn’t recommend more!”



“Victoria took care of my pup as if he was her own. I loved the daily check-ins (twice a day) and the pics to follow. Ozzy looked very comfortable with Victoria. I’m glad she lives right next door so the next time I go away Ozzy will be in Great hands. Thank you Victoria for taking such great care of Ozzy.”


“Donna is so welcoming and warm. Our dog loves her and her husband and dog Reggie. They treat her like family. She’s always so happy when we bring her and pick her up. We also get lots of cute videos and updates.”


“Nardia was friendly, communicated well, and very flexible with my last minute puppy boarding needs! I needed a place for my puppy to stay within two hours for the night, and Nardia opened her home for my puppy and was patient and comforting with her. Highly recommend.”


“I ran to rover in a panic when my plans fell through, Lena was right there and ready to help! This was my first time using rover and Lena made it such a pleasant experience. My babies were so happy! Constant, thoroughly detailed updates followed by tons of happy photos really showed how well they were doing and the detailed care and consideration Lena has for your pets. I can not recommend her enough and will definitely be back! Thank you so much!”


“Our dog, Frankie had the the most wonderful stay at Richmond's. He is incredibly kind and thoughtful - you could tell Frankie really took a liking to him. His fenced in property is beautiful and HUGE, and his house is very welcoming and dog friendly. It was an added bonus that he has a dog, who is very playful and friendly with dogs and people alike. We definitely recommend Richmond and hopefully will have Frankie stay again in the future!”
