North Shore, Virginia
Seek new sights and new friends, both two and four legs.
Ed did a great job with our dog, Sadie. The house looked like no one had been there and Sadie really took to him. Thanks, Ed
Lisa

Joyful, well-employed, traveler in the “best half” of life!
Lisa was a total rockstar, taking over for the last leg of our multi-month sitter extravaganza. She was super organized, showered the pets with love, and left the house looking better than it did when we first moved in. Highly recommend, and would love to have her back any time. Thanks Lisa!

Chris was excellent!!!! Loved having him and would recommend every time. Hope he is able to come back again soon! 😄 sent so many great pics of the pups - you could tell he had a good time with them and vice versa. Thank you Chris!

Reliable, Responsible, Caring Animal Lover <3
Jennifer was amazing! She is very kind and easy to communicate with - and obviously a great presence with animals. She left my home in better shape than she found it! Not only did she send me funny regular updates about Patches and keep the place impeccably tidy, but helped me stay on top of some issues that cropped up. Plus, she left Patches with some great new toys! Definitely recommend Jennifer!
Sarah
North Shore, Virginia
Cheers to travel with peace of mind!
Sarah was fantastic. She took excellent care of my pets and even looked out for my house by sending me pictures of a car that parked on my property that shouldn’t have been there. She’s so pleasant and thoughtful, sending me pictures of my Great Dane and cat. She even let my Great Dane sleep with her (he’s used to sleeping with me) which shows just how wonderful she is and patient since he’s a bed hog. I truly hope she will sit for me again in the future - she’s an absolute gem.

I have experience with dogs (large and small), cats, horses, donkeys and goats.
Tony's cared for my animal for years and I trust him implicitedly. He's polite, respectful, active (Whiskey loves their field trips!) and treats our home and animals as if they were his own.
Martin
North Shore, Virginia
A Trustworthy and Loving Caretaker for Your Furry Friend and Home!
This was Martin's second (or third?) sit. He did a 3 1/2 month sit last spring and a month long sit this time. We love him. He is very organized, a good communicator and keeps the house clean. We'd have him back any time.

The boys took to Susan right away. Susan was a joy to meet! would absolutely use her again
Rebecca
North Shore, Virginia
Excited to spend my long summer and winter breaks in new places caring for pets
Rebecca was a great sitter! She stayed here with some family and they were all very responsible and tidy. Rebecca was great with our dog, easy to communicate with, and left our home looking like we had when we left it. Would 10/10 recommend for any house sit!

Reviews from Cat Owners
Rachael
Sofia and Nicole were excellent sitters to our 2 playful cats (an adult tabby and a BIG Maine coon kitten). They gave us a couple updates daily with pictures, as we requested. They were easy to communicate with before and throughout the entire sit. When we came home, our apartment was tidy (probably neater than we left it!) and our cats were relaxed and happy. They were also kind enough to leave us with some sweet bandanas for our boys. We were super pleased with the quality of care, and would happily recommend Sofia and Nicole to anyone in need of a pet or house sitter!
Mike
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
Bee
The best cat sitters ever! They loved our cats and spent so much time playing with them and making sure they were happy! We had photos and videos every day with funny little messages and we came home to two very happy, healthy cats. The house was spotless and they even washed the linen and towels! They left us some cute Easter presents and breakfast shopping in the fridge, as we were returning after a long flight. We would definitely recommend Michael and Jeanne to anyone and hope they will come back to Teignmouth in the near future. Thanks very much for looking after our beautiful cats and our home x
KOLBY
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Bill & Kathy
We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️
Heather
We literally cannot say enough positive things about Susan and Miranda! They are the best! From start to finish, they did an amazing job communicating with us, giving our 3 (somewhat needy) cats extremely high quality care and tons of attention, and keeping our house clean and plants watered. They took adorable pictures of the cats and sent them to us several times a day, played with them and gave them so much love and affection, and when we got home the house was even cleaner than when we left. We even asked them for some tips on how they were caring for the cats because our cats seemed happier and more relaxed than ever when we returned home to them! This was by far our best cat/house sitter experience to date. We hope Susan and Miranda are available again in the future to sit for us and would invite them back without hesitation.
Patty
Nathalie and John were great! They were great house sitters to watch our two dogs, 2 geckos, our old cat and bull frog. Their two girls took good care of the animals as well. The house was exactly how we left it. We really appreciated their help!
Carol
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
Lorie
Amazing sitters - I feel so fortunate to have had them stay. Chapeau was treated to daily walks and belly rubs, and my cat Tica was overflowing with contentment from having been taken care of so well. The house was cleaner than I left it and I was treated to a nice note and a lovely candle upon my return. Also, they left a checklist of item that they had done while here. Truly above and beyond!
Steven
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!

Shady Mountain Pet Retreat

Recent Reviews:
Shady Mountain is a great place to bring your pets whether you need them kenneled or for training or rehabilitation. Miriam is a published expert in her field and no expense was spared in the construction of the facilities, from the heated, indoor therapy pool, to the large exercise areas. Even the kennels have plenty of space for your furry friends and receive daily maintenance and cleaning. Shady Mountain is also moving to solar power to provide services with clean energy. They also have strict health and care standards for all the guests, so you can be confident that your pets will not contract anything during their stay here. If you want a top notch facility run by knowledgeable people who truly care about the health, training, and well being of your pets, bring them to Shady Mountain Pet Retreat!
When vacationing with family and friends, it’s so important to find the best boarding/training facility to care for our four legged family member. Miriam and staff couldn’t be more accommodating to our family and dog. We quite often say that our dog’s vacation/training and stay at Shady Mountain Pet Retreat is often nicer than ours! We give it 5 🐾 (stars). Already planning our next visit for our beloved Piper. She’s got her bags packed and marking off days until her return!
Miriam + the team at Shady Mountain were the best decision we have ever made as animal parents. They loved on our sweet Great Pyrenees puppy, Odin, while giving him a strong foundation in “good manners”. During our weekly visits, Miriam helped train us to help Odin maintain his training at home. She helped us understand how our behavior and cues are interpreted by Odin + gave us the skills we need to make sure we can all live comfortably and HAPPILY together. If you’re wondering if you need help, you do. You will benefit so incredibly - even if you don’t have a “problem” dog. CALL! This place is worth every single penny.
Top Notch. Worth the price. Your dog will learn a lot in a short amount of time. The owner and operator is very dedicated and has a hard working staff. The lodges (rooms for dogs) and grounds are well kept and very clean. I left my puppy with a short attention span and Mariam had her sitting, laying down and healing in one week. I am amazed. If you want a well behaved dog, send him/her to Miriam at Shady Mountain Pet Retreat.
I took my baby, Venus here to go through the Puppy board and training program for 4 weeks. Me and my boyfriend would visit her every Monday and go over the lessons she had learned that week. The first week of her being there, AMAZED me! It was like a whole different puppy! What made me much more happier, was it was positive reinforcement!! No shock collars, or anything that would scare/hurt my baby. Before taking Venus in, she would consistently bark, not come when called, didn’t know basic commands and would pee inside. Now, she knows how to heel, sit and stay, sit, sit and lay. She doesn’t bark excessively and she actually listens! And she knows where her bathroom is,,, OUTSIDE! Best place ever! Everytime we went in, it was so clean and tidy. Always welcoming too (: I definitely recommend !!
SMPR is a pet paradise! The facilities are top notch and clean, the grounds are beautifully kept, and Miriam is second to none when it comes to taking care of and training your pets. By far the best pet "bed and breakfast in the region." It's certainly not a kennel, it's a retreat!
Harley is in a doggie paradise. Shady Mountain Pet Retreat is one of the best boarding and training facilities Harley has ever been too! Miriam and her husband are hard workers who truly love animals. This is the second time harley has been here and he loved it He gets special attention and loves to swim in the pool. He thinks he's playing but we all know he really needs the exercise. Harley loves playing with other doggies as well. Something he doesnt get very often at home. Miriam was also patient and positive in her training and he responses well. ( now if I could only do it myself lol) The facility is spacious and extremely clean. I can honestly say they have a passion for what they do and its refreshing to see. We will be back again and again! Well worth the money! Thank You!
The best place to take your pets! Huge indoor outdoor suites, hiking trails, indoor pool for dogs, professional staff and so much more. Pet suites are like hotel rooms. My pets come home happy and well behaved.
Caring and knowledgeable professional boarding and training for our goldendoodle.....she learned new commands, along with reinforcing previous commands..we highly recommend this retreat...and wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future....
I might be partial as it is owned by very close friends. . They are very good with all animals. The facility is very well kept.
