We're celebrating life with a dog here in Richmond, Virginia. Within our site you'll find a list of upcoming pack walks, details about our community events, pet charities we support, and Bunny's blog. And, because we are realtors, there's some pretty awesome real estate tools, too.
Help make a difference in RVA. We’ve created a VIP program for our pack members to make a difference each time they walk with us. When you come to a walk, you'll receive a VIP card with 8 paw prints on it. Each time you join us, you’ll get a stamp. Eight stamps equals a donation to your favorite Richmond-area pet-related non-profit. We’re so excited for you and your pup to partner with us in this new and fun way to help our community.

Over the last 35 years together, we have had 4 dogs including Bunny and Gracie, our new foster fail, lots of cats, a turtle, 4 bunnies, a parrot, fish, and a whole bunch of animals that we have fostered and adopted out to great homes. Our house would not be a home without a wagging tail, a floor that constantly needs to be swept, and toys that always need to be put away.
When we got our dog, Bunny in 2021, we realized that she needed to be socialized well so she wouldn't be afraid of people, noises, traveling and all the other things that frightened our old dog Sadie. We created a Facebook page - Home Is Where The Dog Is RVA to help us connect with other dog lovers in Richmond. Our followers have been generous with their puppy raising advice, their emotional support when we found out that our 4 month-old Bunny had to have 2 major surgeries (read more here), and in helping our dog get the much-needed social interaction with other dogs. Part of this socialization has come from what we like to call Pup Crawls/Pack Walks. Each month we invite the RVA dog-loving community to join us as we explore a new park. The walks have not only been great for our dog but also for us. We are meeting the nicest people and our dog loves walking with all the other well-behaved dogs, who are setting great examples for her. If you would like to explore some of our area's parks with your dog, join us on our next pack walk. We'd love to meet you. Visit our EVENT page to sign up for one of our pack walks.
We feel fortunate to do something we love for a living and so we like to pay it forward whenever we can. Check out our Giving Back page to read about the charities we support here in the Richmond area.

Oh boy, oh boy, let's introduce you to Lisa Adams, our top dog when it comes to running the show at Mark Adams & Associates. When she's not busy keeping everything in check, she's either snuggling up to her feline family or capturing pics of Bunny, her goofy pup. Lisa has a big heart for all creatures great and small, even those eight-legged critters (spiders) that creep in uninvited. She'll kindly show them the door, unharmed, no bones about it.
Lisa's got a nose for adventure, a passion for growing organic veggies, and devouring fiction, and she loves trying new recipes with the bounty from her garden. Mark is her willing taste tester and volunteer sous-chef. When she's not being a homebody, you might catch her howling with her book club or organizing a pack walk for the RVA Dog Pack at a local park.
Lisa's been the team's operation manager since 1999 and has done a doggone great job of supporting the listing side since 2002. From paw-some communication skills with clients to listing homes in the MLS, Lisa knows how to fetch results.
Meet Bunny, the tough-as-nails pup who's got the heart of a lion and the squishy exterior of a marshmallow. Born in September 2021, this furball has been through it all, with not one, not two, but three surgical procedures under her belt. But don't let that fool you - she's a fighter, and she doesn't let anything get her down.

Meet Bunny, the tough-as-nails pup who's got the heart of a lion and the squishy exterior of a marshmallow. Born in September 2021, this furball has been through it all, with not one, not two, but three surgical procedures under her belt. But don't let that fool you - she's a fighter, and she doesn't let anything get her down.
Some say it's her secret supplement, NuVet, that keeps her going strong. Others say it's just her natural doggy resilience shining through. But one thing's for sure - Bunny is one lovable pooch. She's a total goofball, with a heart of gold and a love for everyone and everything. She doesn't even chase the bunnies that eat Lisa's plants. She loves meeting new people and she loves leading the pack on the RVA Dog Pack treks. Dogs, cats, humans - you name it, she'll snuggle up with all of them. And don't even get us started on her obsession with cat toys. She likes stealing them as much as she likes eating them. Sorry Pete and Ernie.
Despite some invasive surgeries, Bunny is always up for a good time. She loves exploring new pup-friendly neighborhoods, helping Mark in his business by starring in his videos, and she loves to lend a paw in his woodshop as he creates beautiful things for Lisa's garden.
Bunny loves being with her humans and feline siblings. Whether she's running alongside Mark's bike, entertaining the family with her unusual sound effects, working on a project in the wood shop, or just hanging out together, Bunny is always ready for some quality time with her favorite humans and cats.

Here's Gracie, the resilient pup from Louisiana, that has become Bunny's devoted shadow, and Mark and Lisa's latest foster fail. Overcoming a feral past to find love and acceptance in their family, she adores Bunny and gets along very well with the resident felines, especially Clara. With the grace of a gazelle and the speed of a roadrunner, Gracie keeps Bunny entertained and energized. Her soulful eyes, quirky snort, and playful nature bring endless joy to the Adams' home.
Gracie has taken on the role of Bunny's dedicated personal trainer and hype girl, ensuring that Bunny stays in peak shape and maintains her morale at optimal levels to excel in her various jobs. She possesses boundless energy and enthusiasm, keeping Bunny motivated and active, ensuring she is always ready to take on any task that comes along.
Mark and Lisa never anticipated having two dogs, but the extraordinary bond shared by Bunny and Gracie is beyond words. They had to officially make her part of their family. (Bun Bun would never forgive them otherwise.) These two canines have formed a connection that goes beyond simple companionship and they wouldn't want it any other way.
