Cat Sitters in Hardyville, VA

They are wonderful. They have groomed my Yellow Labrador retriever Captain since he was about 4 months old. He gets a nice bath and toenails trimmed. He smells great when he is done. Recommend them highly

We have been boarding our cat Jack at 4 Leggers for the past four years. The cat condos provide a quiet, private space for each kitty, and the staff is friendly and caring. The price is also extremely reasonable. Best of all, Jack never seems stressed or nervous when we pick him up, unlike experiences we had with other boarders.

For a couple of years now 4 Leggers has been grooming my little "Baby" who is a Yorkie/Dachshund mix. They always giver her great care and kindness. In recent months she has been dealing with a back injury and they were so gentle with her and handled her like a baby. Unfortunately my vet says they do not recommend any future grooming due to her permanent nerve damage in her back. I just wanted to thank everyone at 4 Leggers for all their fine work and love for my "Baby". I would highly promote them and their wonderful services for the Northern Neck.

They did an excellent job on my Maltese, Presley. He smelled and looked so good. We will be going back.

They are the best. My Walle doesn't mind the visit! 🐶 We trust them with our baby, that says alot!❤ …

Great place to board your pet. We haven’t done grooming, but will likely also be excellent.

I took my Sparky for a grooming on June 4th. He was supposed to be groomed with no hair cut from his ears or tail. I pick him up and there is no hair at all on his tail. The hair on his ears was cut. Very unhappy about it. I brought it to the attention of Travis. He said he was sorry. He did not offer to cut the price of the bad haircut. Just said he would wite it down. Well, it should have been written down from Sparkys last visit. Will not be going back. Customer lost.

I have grown up in this area and these folks are the absolute sweetest people to interact with. My dogs are very comfortable being here and I would trust them 100 times over to take care of my dogs and treat them as if they were their own. The staff has a caring sense about themselves that is absolutely heartwarming and you will feel that in your first interaction.

I just had my Pomeranian shaved for the summer season. They did a great job and he looks absolutely cute. The owners are nice people as well. I took a star off because they still will not let people in the building without a mask. The CDC has stated that people who have been vaccinated can enter buildings without a mask and even the governor of our state has said the same thing.

I took my Havanese here to get groomed and Pam did such a good job he looks so much better I’m sure he feels better very nice professional clean business, Travis was great too. So impressed! We will be returning

My dog, Kiara absolutely loves this place. And the best part is she plays all day so when she gets home she is exhausted and knocks out so it's perfect. She has her bestie, skye, whom she loves. I am very particular when it comes to my baby and I would not trust another day care facility other than bay rivers. And can I just say, as careful and considerate that these staff memeber can be we all need to remember these are animals with whom they wrestle and play with each other. A few scratches and markings are literally no big deal that is how animals play. If you don't like it, keep your dog separate from other animals. All the employees are amazing and very friendly.

I cannot say enough good things about these folks. Our pug is in a wheelchair so there are some challenges in caring for him. But the staff at Bay Rivers were so wonderful and attentive to all of his needs. He didn't even want to leave when I picked him up. I cannot recommend this facility enough! We will absolutely be back.

I would never take my dog anywhere Elsa. The team truly puts passions and hard work into the care of the animals. I feel like when I leave my girl she is safe and well taken care of which is not how I have felt in other locations such as petsuites and care a lot. Don’t take our word just visit and you’ll see the true efforts that are put into the best pet care.

Bay Rivers is great, we love sending our puppy there! It makes him so happy to get to play with the other dogs and the staff takes good care of him. We will definitely be sending him back!

Under new management, Bay Rivers Boarding and Day Care is far above its competitors. I love the care and concern the staff shows the dogs. I love that my shy little girl now plays with the big boys and interacts as a dog. I love that I can trust my pup with Brandon, Alyssa, and all the staff. These people know and love dogs. Your pup will benefit from their care. They always have something fun planned and take pictures of all the dogs in their care. Join the fun at Bay Rivers Boarding and Day Care!

If my dog could write this review, she would say this is "the bestest place ever." The staff is amazing and take amazing care of the dogs. They send the best report cards, which are very informative and thoughtful. They take the most awesome pictures and create a great atmosphere. In addition to the socialization my dog receives, she also benefits from the training they provide.

First day for my dog today. I have nothing but amazing things to say! Kylie (I believe that was her name) was super nice and helpful during check in! Explained stuff perfectly for me! The gentleman that called me at 11am was also super informative on how my baby’s evaluation for daycare went! They even let him stay the rest of the day! When pick up time rolled around, he was still outside. 💙 I could hear his little play barks! 🥰 I expected to be paying for a full day of daycare since he was there from 7am to 4:15pm but I was surprised that there was no charge since it was his eval day! They even told me that he would get a peanut butter kong over lunch for his first day and that made my heart and my husbands heart so happy! We will absolutely continue to use them for daycare and even boarding when it’s needed in the future! 💙

Wow I love these guys! From the moment I did a tour of the facility to the introductions with my pups. Their knowledge, friendliness, their interaction with our dogs has been unmatched. We have a very nervous rescue and this team took their time and allowed her to settle. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my furbabies Shanon & Jeremy Johnson, Journey Home Realty, LLC | eXp Realty

Update Jan 2023: They are not at the same level as before after reopening. One of the reasons I brought my pups here is that their were knowledgeable trainers incorporated into the daycare. I mean they would take aggressive dogs. Now they can even handle my 2 boys that came for 2+ years for daycare & boarder. On evaluation they feel they can’t handle my dogs because one is missing an eye and the other is protective of his brother. They used to just separate them into different groups. They didn’t even attempt on the re-evaluation to keep them together. This only means staffing isn’t adequate and/or the training from off leash isn’t good. Either way if you used to bring your pup here know they can’t handle normal dog behavior. Disappointed they were wonderful sad to see there just no good places in the Hampton roads area. Only positive is the place is still nice & the staff were polite. I can’t say enough good things about Bay Rivers! I took my boys in for an evaluation & play day (and since have boarded them multiple nights)! The staff was knowledgeable about dogs and their interactions. They even took extra time to get my little guy settled in when he was being a little fiery and overprotective of his brother! I highly recommend them!

Bay Rivers Boarding & Daycare’s staff have done an amazing job with my dog Stella! She was very nervous and stand-offish her first few days, as she had previously been with unfamiliar dogs, but the staff were very accommodating and worked with her to help her make new furry friends. Stella now has a great time playing with other dogs of all ages and sizes. The transition I saw from the daily report cards over the course of a week of boarding and daycare was unbelievable! The daily report cards with cute pictures and videos of play time along with a description of how the day went are great! She went from trying to hide in the corner at first to now playing with the dogs while also begging for all of pets and belly rubs from the staff. The staff truly love all of the dogs there and work hard to make sure the dogs all have a good time. Stella now loves seeing all of her friends when she goes into daycare and comes home worn out ready to snuggle after a fun day of playing! Highly recommended Bay Rivers for both both Boarding and Daycare!

Don’t call Rover.. Call Sarah!!! I wish everyone were as reliable as Sarah’s team!! They are always there fur my German Shepherd and 2 kitty kats. My pets even appear younger, happier and very relaxed. My Sheppie is almost 8 and since Sarah’s team has been sitting for them, she is so playful and fun like a puppy!!! I am so grateful for all the time and attention they give.. And the pix they send!!! So creative and fabulous!!!! I feel so fortunate to have found these pet loving people!!!

Sarah and her team have been the best caretakers of our animals! We started out with one puppy and weekly walks and playdates for socialization and exercise. When we added another puppy, we added more walks and playdates. My doggies look forward to their time with Sarah, Monika and all the other excellent caregivers. The pics and commentary on their time away just makes my day!!

I cannot say enough about Sarah Sits-N-Stays! Look no further if you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies! We have been using Sarah's company since moving to Richmond in August 2022 and couldn't be happier. My partner and I have very hectic schedules, but we have never been unable to schedule a daily walk and lunch for our dog and cat (even sometimes at the last minute!). We have also used them for overnight visits during weekends we are away. We have never been concerned and always feel safe knowing Sarah's company is taking care of them. They even send pictures and updates every day summarizing their time together. Our dog Teddy is always happy (as you can see!) and well-exercised when we get home. Even our cat, who is not much of a "people person," has warmed up to the staff. We have had nothing but good experiences with all the walkers/sitters, but I would like to give a special shoutout to Madi who is our main walker. She is AMAZING and Teddy absolutely LOVES her! Seriously... look no further if you need a walker or sitter!

I have been using Sarah Sits-N-Stays for dog walking services ever since I adopted my dog last year. Sarah and all the walkers have been absolutely amazing. Sarah made sure my dog was paired with walkers who are comfortable with an energetic, young dog and my dog has gained so much confidence through her daily walks. The walkers are reliable, experienced and communicative. My dog and I are very thankful for all the help!

Could not be more pleased! I am a full time student. The walking schedule is tailored to mine and has been a lifesaver for me and my dog, Pippa! Sarah is organized and attentive—each walker sends an update and usually a picture of Pippa during walks/playtime. Everybody even gives my cat some love too! I highly recommend!

Finding Sarah Sits-N-Stays after moving to Richmond has been such a blessing for our little family! Our sitters have been so patient and understanding with our reactive dog, and always have great communication with us when we are out of town/when they are walking our dog. I would 100% recommend them for anyone who is a little nervous to leave your dog with new people.

Our pup absolutely LOVES his dog walk and play time with Monika, our Sarah Sits ‘N Stays dog professional! Tucker, our dog, now literally knows the word “Monika” and “friends” and he gets SO excited when it’s time for his walk and play time! He knows the time and day and gets so happy when it’s closer to pick up. He always comes back tired, and if you have a hyper dog like we do, you know how crucial that is for your own sanity. They do such a good job of taking care of him and prioritize safety. They are also very flexible, when Tucker was having some stomach issues, they totally understood we needed to cancel. We really trust Sarah Sits ‘N Stays with our beloved pup! Also, Monika takes the cutest pics of Tucker!

I recently hired Sarah Sits-N-Stays to take care of my 16 year old cat while we were out of town for a week. This was my first time hiring a pet sitter and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I received daily updates with photos, so I never had to worry about whether my cat was receiving the care and attention he needed. Sarah’s team was always on time and willing to go above and beyond if they saw something that needed to be done. Thanks to Sarah, I actually felt like I could relax on vacation for once. If you're looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, I would absolutely recommend her services.

I am very happy I was referred to Sarah Hays, owner of Sarah Sits-N-Stays. I cannot begin to express how pleased I am with the care that the pet sitters have provided to my fur baby. With the Time to Pet application, I am able to upload all the important information regarding Taz's care, including vital medication she needs to have administered daily. They keep me informed with every visit and send me pictures so I can see how my little girl is doing. They have provided a peace of mind so when I need to travel I can do so with confidence. I highly recommend Sarah Sits-N-Stays!

Sarah Sits N Stays is wonderful. They take such good care of my pup and communication is wonderful with an app that keeps us updated with pics and stories about the fun adventures our dog is going on. She gets so excited when her walker arrives because she knows it's going to be the best time. Wonderful service!

We recently boarded our six-year-old Mini golden doodle and five month old Mini Bernad doodle. Needless to say they had the absolute best time! We received daily photos of all the dogs playing. Highly recommend!

Our normal boarder was unavailable and we were referred to Pawsitively Purr-fect through the grapevine. Our dog loves other dogs but has been reactive with some other boarders, so finding a new option at the last minute was a challenge. Jacki & JR were the best we’ve worked with, no contest, and have become our new go-to for boarding & daycare. They checked his veterinary records, showed us their home setup (which was a substantial improvement compared to our previous boarder), trialed him through daycare for a couple of days, and then kept him for a full week. They kept up his requested diet, gave him plenty of playtime and rest, and sent plenty of photos and necessary updates throughout his stay. We went for boarding in a pinch and left as new clients excited to bring him back for daycare. I cannot recommend Pawsitively Purr-fect highly enough. Don’t hesitate, just go.

Not only is the owner Jacki so, so sweet and was willing to answer any and all questions I had without hesitation, but they also take the time out of their day to send photos frequently of your pets for you to see what a great time they’re having! My pup has come home happy and worn out every time she has stayed for daycare. I oftentimes feel like she misses it on the days she doesn’t go! 😂. We haven’t boarded with them yet, but have a couple of trips lined up for the summer and have full faith that Jacki and her crew will take great care of our fur baby. 10/10 recommend!

We finally found a daycare/boarding place that we can give 5 stars to! Jax absolutely LOVES going to Jackie's! As soon as we turn on her street, he is pacing the car, ready to get out and go play with his friends! Jax barks at everyone but when Jacki or JR come to the car to get him, no barking! He eagerly jumps in their arms, ready to go! The photos sent twice daily is an added bonus! Jax is our baby, and we can leave him with Jacki and JR and feel 100% comfortable! Highly recommend!!

Dropped our 1 year old lab off for Memorial Day weekend for a three day stay. Lizzy was very reluctant to go in as all the dogs were carrying on and the gentleman who took Lizzy in had to sort of force her into the kennel area. When we came to pick her up, we had to kinda force her into the car as she didn't want to leave!!!! LOL. We received numerous pictures each day and a couple of videos that reflected how well kept the dogs are in their care. They were very communicable, pleasant and we will absolutely use them any and every time we need boarding for our lab!

I was thrilled to find this pet boarding near us for a recent trip. Having a meet and greet with the owner, Jacki, to see the facility and let my dog run around put me at ease. There is a large indoor facility lined with kennels connected to a fenced yard with astroturf and toys. I like that the dogs have free reign to go inside and outside as they please all day (except a few breaks in their kennels to eat, rest, etc.) Jacki was always very responsive via text, and she sent pictures every day (usually 2-3x/day) all the dogs around the yard. My dog came home tired, but content. I will be using Pawsitively Purr-fect in the future.

Amazing!! I really have no other words for Pawsitively purr fect pet sitting. Jackie took such good care of my dog while we were gone! My fur baby is diabetic and needs insulin twice a day. We were updated multiple times a day with Autumns status. I have a hard time trusting anyone to care for her but Jackie was amazing!

My dog, Penny boarded here and had the time of her life! I loved the daily pics and knowing that she was safe and happy. We will definitely be back! Thank y’all so much!!

My two Golden Doodles absolutely love this place! My husband and I also love how they care for our dogs. When we are on the go.It’s great knowing and seeing my dogs are well taken care of is super comforting!!

A friend referred me to Pawsitively Purr-Fect and I'm so glad she did. I have a senior beagle and needed a place for him to board while on vacation. I was so impressed with the Meet and Greet process and tour. I was grateful for the fact that I was given a tour of the whole facility. It was clean and thoughtfully put together. They had nothing to hide, which made me trust them and feel comfortable about leaving my furbaby in their care. All my questions were answered thoroughly. Booking and paying for services is easy. My dog did great. While he was there, I got regular reports and photos so I knew he was having fun and well looked after. I appreciated their attention to my dog's special needs (and my worries.) All the staff I met was curious and friendly. They took excellent care of my boy and I know he will be a regular visitor now.

My Trails and Tails is perfect for my pup! He goes to doggie daycare one day each week and wants to stay with Victor when I go to pick him up. The personal attention is heart warming. Victor and Abigail obviously love all living creatures. My pup loves the nature walks through the woods and down to the water. The large enclosed area allows him to run and play with the other pups. At nap time he goes into the home. I could go on and on about My Trails and Tails because being there helps give my pup his best possible life!

This is not a boarding facility! No fencing, no kennels, it is pet sitting in their house. They seem to be great people, and I’m sure they care and do a good job. Their set up is not for a high energy dog that needs sturdy fencing.

The staff here are so kind and friendly. My dog, Cosette, begins smiling and wiggling as soon as we walk in the door. It is a 'no frills' place but my dog doesn't need a pool or gym equipment. She needs a loving staff and plenty of dogs to play with. It is affordable and they will even bath her and trim her nails for me. She goes to daycare 2 days a week. Because she has so many positive interactions there, she was comfortable being boarded for a few days.

Conan was a senior dog with specific needs when he started going to Four Paws Pet Resort. The staff were always accommodating and understanding of his needs. I lost my best friend while I was traveling and the Staff at Four Paws showed him the love only someone who cares deeply for an animal can show. The owner stayed in contact with me while we made our way home and his staff remained with Conan until he passed. I may not ever need the services of Four Paws Pet Resort again, but I will refer everyone I know. Just tell them “Conan’s Dad sent you.”.

Overall nice employees and reasonable prices. My issue is why don't you have live video footage,cameras/monitors for us pet parents to see what's really going on when we're away from our babies? If there's nothing to hide and all is well? Id feel more comfortable seeing that my pet is truly happy and enjoying their day while I'm gone. It's every parents right to see first hand if their pet is truly being taken care of as claimed and they're having fun, enjoying themselves. I strongly recommend implementing a live video stream for people who drop their dogs off with you all day. It would give us a peace of mind and no suspicions.

Warning ‼️ My fur baby is now missing one eye after being boarded here. Incident took place Monday. I was informed my dog’s eye was dislodged from the socket and right off I was being told it was common or normal for my breed and age of dog. My family and friends own small breeds of different sorts and have never had this issue. He was taken to the hospital and they could not save the eye. They also determined that this was NOT normal and resulted from traumatic injury. It’s is now Thursday and I still do not have an incident report or video footage from the facility. No one has told me what happened while he was in their care. They keep saying they are sorry but still have yet to give me answers. Owner said he would provide report after investigation but why does that take more than 24hrs from an incident involving emergency surgery? They accuse the hospital of being overhanded on their report to me and all the hospital did was report their findings and facts, something four paws for some reason has a hard time of doing.i lost trust with this center and made sure my dog was discharged my boyfriend and not them. This caused him to rearrange his work plans. How do you brace your child to see their dog perfectly fine one day and in pain, discomfort and missing an eye when she returns from travel?

Our dog Flapjack loves Four Paws Pet Resort! The staff is amazing and so kind. You can tell how much they love your pet:) Flapjack always loves going in to daycare each day.

I began using Four Paws over the summer when I needed a last minute sitter. I was very nervous the first time around to leave my babies with someone I didn't know. Needless to say I gave them a call the day after drop off to check on my babies. The staff told me they were having so much fun with the other dogs and were wearing themselves out. Since the first visit, I have booked a couple more times. As soon as we arrive to Four Paws my pups know exactly where we are. They get so excited to go see their friends and have so much fun! Upon pick-up my pups are always worn out from all the fun they had. If you need a place to board your pups Four Paws is the place to go! Friendly staff, fun environment, and bonus: the dogs are worn out by pick up time!

We absolutely love four paws! The staff are always so great and welcoming. After a few visits, they had remembered our dog by name. We normally bring our hound mix for dog daycare. He thrives on social interaction so he is always excited when we pull up to the building. We have also used them for boarding over the weekend when we leave town and never had an issue. We have recommended them to several of our dog friends.

My dog Chip loves 4 Paws Pet Resort! The staff is always friendly and courteous. Chip loves everyone that greets him at the front desk. We have never had any safety concerns and they all obviously love working with dogs. Chip has a great time at 4 Paws because he is always exhausted and in a great mood when I pick him up. I 100% recommend 4 Paws Pet Resort for daily daycare and boarding. They are the best!

My puppy has been going to 4 paws for over a year, the staff is amazing - they all know him and provide great, friendly service. They really care about your dog and are always super helpful. The few times my dog got a little rambunctious they were great about letting me now. Brody just loves going to daycare to have fun with his friends and get out some energy!

My family, and most importantly my doggo, LOVE this place! My fur baby gets so excited every time we pull up to the door since she knows she’s going to have so much fun! The staff are all super friendly, and they take such good care of all the dogs under their care. And they’re reasonably priced. Bonus: the owner of this business is also supports their local community, giving money support and honor teachers and schools :)

We had a wonderful experience boarding our pups at Wingmont Kennel. They came highly recommended and did not disappoint. Our frenchies were well taken care of by the caring and friendly staff. Like many pet parents, our dogs are family and we will make the drive from Richmond to Wingmont for the peace of mind they provided.

Bring your dog here if you want them to socialize with other dogs in a safe way, if you want your dog to be too happy, if you want them to have too much fun in the pool, if you want them to get too healthy from exercise, and if you want them to have too much love from the employees. We love Wingmont and so do our dogs!! I’m starting to think they like it there more than at home. Haha!

I just wanted to thank Wingmont so much for taking such good care of Rj! I was so nervous about leaving him and letting someone else care for him but they did an exceptional job! They didn’t mind my calls to check in, kept me informed and are the most friendly people. Rj left there very happy and healthy! They read him, did what he was comfortable with and he enjoyed every moment. He will be visiting there again in a few months for another week stay. I highly recommend Wingmont kennels for your pets home away from home 😊

They are amazing!! Our dog is always the most happy and the most worn out (good thing about going here)! Sometimes they post pictures on Facebook and he typically smells good, even after staying here for weeks! They even made him a birthday cake once

Best boarding in the greater Richmond area. Been taking our pup here for years and he has always come back exhausted (from playing) and well cared for. Prices are super reasonable and the staff has always been cheery and helpful.

Been using them a long time for our fur babies. Wouldn’t take them anywhere else! Staff really care about your pets!

Love Wingmont! Our Weimaraner, Mei, has been coming to Wingmont for boarding since she was a puppy. The staff is always very kind, sensitive to some of her separation anxiety, and does a great job helping me to feel better about the boarding process too! Because of Wingmont's care and attention to our pup, our family feels comfortable when traveling, knowing our girl is in good hands. Thank you to all at Wingmont!

It's the only place I trust to keep my dogs. It's an hour from where I live, but worth the drive.

Super happy with our experience so far. We experimented with taking our Golden, Amory, for an overnight and will definitely be taking him back for longer visits. Everyone was very cordial and they had no problem working with our schedule to let us drop off early and pick up a little late. Amory even came back to us with a cool little handkerchief adornment too. Keep up the great work guys!

Al loves it here! He loves the staff & they love him. He loves playing with the other puppies. It's the 1st time that He's willing to leave my side. We get to a certain point on the road and he knows where he's going, he stands up wags his tail and is ready to get out as if he knows the rest of the way to Wingmont! He is treated like a King! Some days I think he's not going to come home with me. I see him and he has a scarf around his neck he's prancing around and he says bye to the staff, it's adorable!
