Pet boarding/training near Nokesville

“Andrew is an outstanding trainer!

He was first recommended to me by a friend whose dog had been successfully trained by Andrew. The positive changes in my friend’s dog’s behavior were so significant and obvious I decided to have my male black lab Doctor go through Andrew’s board & train program too.

My black lab was two years-old at the time, friendly, happy and headstrong, as well as totally unaware of his 95-lb strength. After Doctor completed the board & train program, he was a solid citizen—he knew all the basic commands like sit, down, stay, heel, place, come, leave it and drop it, but more importantly Doctor was just so much easier to live with and more enjoyable to take along on outings.

Even though Andrew was strict with him during training, Doctor loved Andrew, so when a year later I needed to go on an extended trip out of the country for two weeks, I boarded Doctor with him. I felt comfortable leaving the country knowing that Andrew would take excellent care of him in my absence.

Two years later, I recently again took Doctor back to Andrew for a few days of remedial leash training, with very positive results. Over the previous two years, I’d gotten a little inconsistent and lax in not always holding Doctor to Andrew’s high behavioral training standards, which is why the refresher training was needed.

My goal now is to get Doctor certified as a therapy dog, so that I can take him to visits patients at local hospitals. He’s such a friendly and gentle dog, and I know patients will absolutely love him. If it weren’t for the positive behaviors Doctor has learned from Andrew, though, becoming a therapy dog would not even be a realistic goal.

Thanks again Andrew & Citizen K9!!!“

“We board three of our Parson Russell Terriers twice a year, on average, for extended stays with Mike & Sarah and we absolutely love how well they take care of our little guys! Their entire family participates in making our fur babies feel comfortable, exercised and fulfilled. After each stay we see a noticeable difference in how well our dogs behave at home. We have a specific meal plan that requires cold storage with a timed feeding schedule and Mike/Sarah always accommodate beyond our expectations. I highly recommend their boarding program.“

“Great boarding facilities. Everyone is super nice. I would recommend for your furry pet !“

“Centreville Square Animal Hospital staff are kind, caring and compassionate. They view themselves as part of the family, wanting the best for your pet and supporting you when illness or injuries happen. I’ve been a client for 15 years and won’t trust my pets to anyone else.“

“Took my Bernedoodle puppy to see daisy the groomer! She was so amazing! Talked me through everything (which was very helpful as this is my first dog) and loved on my little guy so much. I love the work she did!! Definitely recommend coming to this place to see daisy!“

“We have gone to Pup Valley Twice now. The first thing that got me was the Cleanliness of the facility. And what really, really got me was the fact that they had a person there to watch over the dogs over nite. I was sold. That lifted a worry off of my heart. And the staff was very nice and they work with us when we were returning from our trip. We were cutting it very close to closing time and they stayed there until got there to get our Girl.“

“Absolutely!!! We’ve been boarding our dogs at Country Club Kennels for 15 years, and it honestly feels like a second home for our fur babies. We have three beagles, and they get excited every time we pull in—it says so much about how well they’re treated. The staff cares for them like they’re their own, which means the world to us. Carla and her team truly love animals and spend so much time showering our pups with attention, affection, and comfort. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in such loving, experienced hands.“

“We have 3 chihuahuas who do not board or attend doggy daycare on a regular basis so they are a little shy to warming up. Tracy and Joe treated them like one of their own and took great care of them while we were on vacation. Tracy did a home visit first to get to know them, then our dogs went to her home for a few hours the week before we left town. Tracy communicated with us and even sent pictures while we were gone. We didn't have to worry at all knowing they were safe and sound. We will definitely return when we need boarding services again!“

“My goodness!! How awesome.

My cat needed a lower molar extraction every other place was charging over $1K for one tooth. The staff here was so knowledgeable, professional, and reasonable with pricing.

The team was able to squeeze me in and get my cat taken care of with only a few days notice. Thank you guys!!!

“I don’t often leave reviews, but VVS deserves 10 stars. Bill and his crew are fantastic horse people and humans.I had recently moved to the area and needed to bring my horse (3 year old at the time) out of his prior training barn and into a facility I could work him at. Well, lets just say my 3 yr old need A LOT more training then I had time or confidence for. Bill was wiling to help train him and keep me posted with videos and pictures of his progress. The horse is now almost 5, and is an absolute star!If you have a young horse, a horse who needs some refresher training, maybe a kid who wants to learn to ride, or just a wonderful barn family….call Bill, like right now!“

“We’ve never boarded our dog but she attends for daycare and she is tired from a full day’s play when she gets home and is excited to go! The staff is fantastic, our experience has been excellent!“

“Sam is wonderful with our dog Lacey. She is very flexible, accommodating, reliable and we're soglad we found her!“

“Enjoyed every session of these classes! My puppy learned so much and we both enjoyed it so much! Highly recommend!!“
