Pet boarding/training in Virginia Beach

“I boarded my dog and cat here and they were very, very well taken care of. My dog has anxiety and separation anxiety and he was happy the whole weekend. I can't thank you enough for taking care of my sweet pets.“

“I have a poodle named Jasper. In 2016, he had some skin infection issues, and through a friend's recommendation, we came to this animal hospital. Acredale has been taking care of his health for the past ten years. Two weeks ago, due to his old age, pneumonia, and skin cancer, we visited the hospital. After an efficient and professional examination, Dr. Madison offered several treatment options, and we decided to bring him home and take medicine and keep conservative treatment. Unfortunately, he didn’t make it. I called to cancel Jasper's follow-up appointment and let them know we lost him. Today, I received a card from them—thank you for the comfort from Acredale! Once we get through the grief of losing Jasper, we will bring our new puppy back here! Absolutely!“

“Dr and associates performed very well with my boy Rocky... He's a 140 pound Leonberger that seems to love his trip to the vet and that alone speaks in volumes to me... Their care and compassion for my boy guarantees we will keep them as his primary care consultants and I highly recommend them for your pets...“

“Andrea is very knowledgeable about why dogs behave a certain way. She was able to point out some concerns right away! When she first met him, she stated that our dog might be in pain because of the way he was sitting. She also gave helpful strategies to use when we notice that he is uncomfortable or anxious, so that aggressive behaviors can be avoided. She knows her stuff!
I would definitely recommend her services!“

“A great alternative to expensive vet vaccinations. They are friendly and fast. They'll forward your vaccinations to your boarding facility and your veterinarian. Nice office.“

“Dr, Keller and all of the staff are have always been professional, courteous and personable. They have taken excellent care of my dogs for probably 25 -30 years.“

“Our dachshund pups, Max & Scooter, were so well taken care of here. We are from out of state and kept them here three days while visiting relatives. We highly recommend Holly Ridge Manor Country Club!“

“I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Adam and Obedient Paws. When we started, my dog struggled with aggression, resource guarding, and would bark and growl at anyone who came into our home or even walked past the window. It was stressful and honestly overwhelming.

From the very beginning, Adam was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly understanding of both my dog and our situation. He took the time to explain what was causing the behavior and gave us clear, practical steps to work through it. What really stood out was how he focused not just on correcting behavior, but on building trust and confidence in my dog.

In addition to addressing the behavioral issues, he also helped us build a strong foundation with basic training like sit, come, lay down, up, and off. He worked on leash training as well, which has made walks so much more enjoyable. One of the biggest improvements for me personally was helping my dog stop biting during nail trims - something that used to be a huge challenge.
The progress we’ve seen has been amazing. My dog is noticeably calmer, more controlled, and much more comfortable around people. We’re now able to have visitors over without the same level of anxiety, which has made a huge difference in our daily life.

If you’re dealing with similar issues, I highly recommend Adam. He truly knows what he’s doing and genuinely cares about helping both dogs and their owners succeed.“

“Bark is the absolute best! Their staff are incredibly kind and caring. Whenever I drop my dog off, they always come back happily exhausted from a full day of play. Bark’s online reservation system makes booking daycare quick and easy. Another great feature is the vet next door—we’ve used them to stay current on a vaccine that needed to be readministered, and Bark coordinated everything seamlessly. I can’t say enough great things about Bark.“

“Best vets and personal ever. Makes you and your furbaby feel special. And the callbacks make you feel really secure in the care of your furbaby. And they have always taken us right in on an emergency call.“

“Dory is the best dog trainer I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with! She is soooo patient and good with not only the humans, but “our” dog took to her immediately! What a wonderful experience and I look forward to the rest of ”our” training with her. I highly recommend her if you need help with your pup!❤🐾“

“I’ve been going to Animal Med Center for many decades, having many different doctors, we have always received kind and professional care you would want for your animal…“

“Loved everything, PetSuites was great at taking care of my cats and sending me a pawgress report along with pictures of them. It was awesome and it felt amazing being at ease knowing they were getting taken well care of, will definitely be back!“

“We LOVE Dogtopia! Our dog is always so happy to go to Dogtopia and she is so well taken care of when shes there. The staff love our girl just as much as we do. I highly recommend Dogtopia for daycare, boarding, and grooming!!“

“Our two babies absolutely love Camp Bow Wow the staff is super friendly. Anthony is always such a huge help. It really puts me at ease to know that my dogs are safe and well taken care of When we are away, thanks guys for everything“

“First time here for a check up with my puppers and was immediately impressed! Love the separate waiting areas for cats and dogs. Everyone was super nice and very professional. Would absolutely recommend.“

“When our dog goes in there she’s wagging and excited to see everyone. They have play groups and the dogs play outside. She comes home ready for a nice nap!“

“Highly recommend Deborah Lankford with Playful Pups and Performance. She is a very knowledgeable instructor who can teach to a variety of learning styles and backgrounds. All classes are followed up by multiple handouts discussing in detail what skills were taught in class and how to practice with your pup at home. Deborah is highly invested in helping you learn how to communicate with your dog and ensures positive learning environments. I've worked with Deborah with multiple dogs over the years. We've taken puppy obedience all the way through therapy dog training.“

“Very cozy and clean. The staff were very friendly, accommodating, and kind to my dog and I. The visit was not rushed, the prices were fair, and I didn’t feel pressured to buy anything we didn’t need.“

“Attention all kittie parents! Doctor Johnson is the best & his staff are incredible! My rescue cat has been going to Doctor Johnson for over 6 years. Doctor Johnson has really improved the health & well being of my baby boy & for that I am truly grateful. Charleigh the receptionist is truly incredible & excellent!
Birdneck Animal Hospital totally rules! ??????“

“My time here, in sewing classes have been not only helpful with my businesses but for my heart as well. Working with and being mentored by highly Professional and Skilled, Sonya Z.Phillips has been the best nostalgic feelings! Sewing helps me honor my Grandmother and many family seamstresses that still have so much to say... so getting back to it has overall been extremely amazing!“

“Helpful, mindful, caring staff and veterinarians who helped us care for our two corgis through their entire lives. Especially gentle when they passed away. Appreciate they are an inclusive practice.“

“I’ve been taking my dog Hans here for two years, due to his extreme separation anxiety. He absolutely loves going! I like that they separate the dogs based on their activity level and not their size because my little dachshund loves to play with the big boys. They’re open early and stay open late and the staff feels like family. We love it and the vet next door.“

“We have been using this vet for more than20 years. Dr. Lannon and staff are the best I have come across in all my years. They actually care about the animals. Unlike alot of the vets in tidewater that you need to take“
