Dog Boarding in Vinton, VA

“My Shitzhu twins spent their first stay with John. I could not have asked for a better caregiver. John gave regular updates, spent quality time with the dogs, and provided absolutely first-class care, as good or better than if they were at home. They will definitely be visiting John again.”

Pamela T.

“Such a wonderful service provided with timely updates including pictures. I felt very comfortable leaving the kitties with her. I will definitely use her service again if I need to board Emma and Walley.”

“Emily was great! She watched my lab for 6 days while I was out of town and she sent plenty of fun updates and photos during the stay. I appreciate that she did a meet and greet before to make sure it would be a good fit.”

“By far the best dog-sitting experience I've ever enjoyed. Marah and her husband were both incredibly personable, warm, and engaged even at the meet and greet. They were relaxed and reassuring with my rambunctious pup and accommodating with the day/times. During the stay, I got tons of pictures and video of Kaine, playing and having fun. And they returned him to me happier and healthier than I left him!! :)”

“Ashley and her family were great! My pup has endless energy and I was concerned about leaving her for an extended stay. They are very gentle and sweet with all their guests, both human and canine! Their pup Delilah gets along with pretty much any dog, it would appear. I'll definitely be recommending them and using their services when the time comes again.”

Brett K.

“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”

Sadie B.

“Shawn was wonderful! She kept me updated throughout the entire stay. My pups were very comfortable and happy during their stay. I would choose Shawn every time to watch my pups, they had an amazing time! I didn’t have to worry about my dogs once while they were in Shawn’s care!”

Shelby H.

“This was my first time needing to find someone to sit my baby. I was worried about leaving her with someone else but I was at ease knowing she wouldn't be alone and was in caring hands. Taylor was able to accommodate time changes on short notice and I could tell from meeting her she would take good care of my baby. I just know my pup have a fun filled stay with Taylor and I will be sure to come back to Taylor whenever I need boarding for my pup again!”

“Goose loves his summer camp at Jody’s farm! He was able to meet some new pups and learn the ways of being a farm boy! I know he was well taken care of while we were away!!”

Sydney S.

“Lawdy is an excellent sitter, very sweet and professional! She took care of my two boys like they was here very own, and they absolutely took to her, she gave more that a few daily updates, and that was very very comforting, and when Lawdy returned them to us, you could absolutely tell Brutus and Zeus was happy. They would run to us then back to her, I can’t say enough thank you’s to her… we highly recommend her and I will be using her services in the future”

“Jack is a finicky pup -- that's the chow in him. However, when we picked him up he was happy and healthy -- thanks to Pam and their wonderful home. Definitely will book another stay. He's 9 years old, and it's good to know he is well cared for.”
