“Lola seemed to be well taken care of by Elli! It was a saving grace to find her as there weren't many options in southern Vermont that I could find that met Lola's needs, so very thankful for her and all that she did to care for Lola when we couldn't bring her with us.”
“It was nice knowing the dogs would have a great time while we were away. They had so many other dogs to play with and so much land to run, play and sniff. Definitely going to board here again when we travel.”
“Ericca was quick to respond and helped us for doggy day care with 1 days notice. She was friendly and sent updates throughout the day on our dog. We’d love to use her again in the future!”
“Anastasia was wonderful! One of my dogs normally has separation anxiety, but her calm demeanor put him and me right at ease. Her knowledge of dogs and dog behavior was evident. It only took a moment for both of my dogs to relax, join the pack, and start to play. I will leave them with her again, for sure.”
“Hope was great for our 5-month old Aussie puppy. She had a number of other dogs there to play and had a great time. She was very responsive during her stay and asked a lot of questions prior to agreeing to watch her. Hope has a lot of experience with dogs and loves dogs. Will definitely have our pup stay with her again if we are in the area.”
“Carolyn was great! My dog seemed to have a great time and enjoyed her sweet pup! She was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Carolyn sent pictures to keep us at ease as it was Paddington's first time with her. I would definitely recommend!!”
“Mikkal’s place was perfect for our energetic pup. She had plenty of space to play and came home happy and tired out. Mikkal was very responsive and gave frequent updates. We will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Inge was very responsive, sent pictures of our boy every day, was reasonable in pricing and her own was very clean! She allowed us to have a stress free time away, knowing our dog was safe and cared for!”
“Laura was fantastic- she is every dog owner's dream for who you want caring for your pup when you are away. She was super communicative, shared pictures throughout our pup's stay and provided a safe and loving environment, allowing us to enjoy our holiday break. We feel like we hit the jackpot with Laura and hope she can host our dog in the years to come. Cannot recommend more highly!”
“Sadie was absolutely wonderful. I was very nervous leaving my pup August and she was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and August came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Sadie to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur baby.”
About: Lifelong dog person, I have cared for dozens of furry friends, mine and others. I currently have a 4 year old Shepherd Mix. Former PETCO employee and rescue volunteer I am currently working part-time and unavailable 2pm to 7pm Monday- Friday. There is some flexibility, so please ask about your specific timing needs. Thanks I will follow your instructions as well as your pet's needs, mood, and personality. I do my best to let your fur baby be comfortable and themselves.
“Laura and Tyler were great with my dog! He has pretty bad separation anxiety which makes it very difficult to leave him new places. Laura was awesome about introducing her dogs one by one and letting him get accustomed to her dogs and her home. She tried different areas to see where he would be most comfortable and really put time and effort into getting him to relax and be comfortable. She kept me up to date and make me feel a lot better about where he was and how he was doing. I would definitely use them again when we're in the Adirondacks!”
“Ringo had a great time. Kaylea communicated very well and her dogs enjoyed having our dog around. Kaylea send us some nice pictures and kept us updated on Ringo’s 3 night stay.”
“Richard and Hope took great care of Betty; lots of outdoor time and playing with children. They obviously LOVE dogs and make them part of their family! If I’m back in their ar3a, Betty is definitely staying with them again!”
