Doggy Day Care in Hyde Park

“Kim provided doggie daycare to my doodle Rooney while I hit the slopes on our VT vacay. Roo came home happy & tired after playing w/ his friends all day. Kim even provides pick-up/drop-off services which are very convenient & much appreciated! Highly recommend!”

“Our 6 year old GSD, Flynn, has been with Chad since he was 4 months old. Up until a few months ago in a doggie day care, and now spending 2 days a week with him in a more 1:1 setting. Chad's calm, nurturing demeanor and unwavering patience and consistency with our often anxious and always energetic guy makes such a huge different for our family. Flynn's 2 days a week with Chad mean that he is a calmer, happier, less anxious dog at home. All of this being said, I think the biggest recommendation that we could give would be that whether it was at day care drop off or Chad pulling into our driveway for a visit, Flynn can never get to Chad fast enough. For us- that says it all!”

About: I've been an animal lover and taken care of pets my whole life! Growing up, we had the sweetest yellow lab named Pete. Now, my partner and I adopt old pets and care for them during their retirement. I love animals and will care for your pets as if they were my own. ****** PLEASE NOTE ****** that we have two dogs (an elderly deaf pug named Alice, and a senior terrier mix named Edie) and one cat. Our pets are friendly towards other dogs, cats, and people who come to visit/ stay with us. Please let me know if you have any concerns about your pet staying with our pets, or if they don't have experience with cats. We can discuss and ensure it'll be a good mutual fit. I am an educator at the local elementary school, and offer pet care services to neighbors and visitors to the area. My availability is generally flexible on the weekends, and can extend into the week on a case-by-case basis. I generally offer 3-4 walks per day, including one longer adventure to mountain trails, or another nearby, dog friendly destination. I'm happy to bring your pup to any of their favorite spots (within reason). Of course, it goes without saying that pets are allowed on the furniture and more than welcome to snuggle in bed at night, also open to crating or any special care required.

“Our pup had an amazing time at Tom’s! The house is located on a horse farm with lots of open space and little traffic. Our dog got to run around and played with other doggies. Appreciate the picture and video updates!”

“Pete was amazing. He was nice and attentive with our needs and provided updates. Would def recommend for sitting.”

“I highly recommend Katie! Very easygoing and I felt comfortable leaving my Chewbear with her. She was flexible with my time period and I did not feel rushed. If I had more energy I would have done more. Katie was very responsive to my texts and I even got a "report card" letting me know more about his time there. So nice to have peace of mind for your animal with severe separation anxiety. She is a godsend. Would definitely let Chewy visit again. Thank you Katie!”

About: My schedule is flexible so I'm able to spend time throughout the day with your fur baby. I'm active and happy to play fetch for hours! I like to take puppers for multiple walks and give lots of love and pets. The clients I sit for like the fact they can contact me last minute and I'm generally able to adjust my schedule to be available. My schedule changes from week to week but feel free to contact me to double check my availability no matter the season! I like when clients leave me detailed instructions on what their pets normal schedules are, that way there's less stress put on myself and on your fur friend! I'm able to work from home most days of the week, this allows me to be available for all pet needs - morning, lunch time, and after work walks are a part of my daily schedule when we have a dog to take care of. Lots of mental stimulation and training exercises throughout the day to keep them out of trouble helps too! I have a 9 year old cat in the house that tends to keep to herself in the bedroom when there's a dog around. Our home is on 5 acres of land with a big yard to do lots of sniffing around. I'm also located right on the rail trail for longer walks and adventures!

“Wow! Wendy is amazing. Very warm, kind and knowledgeable with caring for a family pet... in my case a German shorthair pointer, that really enjoyed her cute dogs, Ken (a great tv personality) and fun/friendly home. I was skiing Stowe and her beautiful location is an easy and worthwhile drive that I completely enjoyed. It was a real treat to meet such awesome people and made me wish I lived closer. You could not possibly find better care than Wendy provides.”

Chad W.

“Sarah was very kind and accommodating. Also so easy for anyone who is spending the day skiing at Stowe. Would definitely trust her to take care of my little one again.”

Hanne G.

“John is more than amazing. He is so caring, loving and kind to our Pup. Milkyway is so happy when we leave him and the entire family makes pup feel at home. I knew the first time I met John and his family they were an excellent choice. They treat pup as if he is one of their very own furr babies. I highly recommend John. Don’t think twice, contact John for his services.”

“Andrea was great! We had a last minute reservation and she accommodated us. Otto can be finicky with other dogs, but Andrea had him acclimated and included with the pack in a few hours. We'll be seeking her again!”

Brooke W.

“Thank you!! This was on short notice and I also changed pick up time, both of which were no problem. Great communication and def made me feel very comfortable leaving our pet there. This isn’t something we do a-lot especially since this fall when he was diagnosed with a degenerative issue. Very, very nice setting for dogs! Super nice family and would highly recommend.”

About: I have always been around pets of all kinds; reptiles, house pets, farm animals, even a tarantula. I am caring and attentive and up for anything! I work from home and set my own work schedule. Pet care can fit right into my flexible schedule. I would love to have a companion on my walks, as I listen to my podcasts!! I like to do my research on a particular pet if I am going to care for it. This ensures I will properly handle and care for the pet, as they vary!

“So grateful to find Michele on here who has been able to accommodate my last-minute request for dog care after I was injured and needed help with my pup. Her calm demeanor and confidence put me at ease leaving him with a stranger, and she kept me posted during the day. Happy to wholeheartedly recommend!”

Rebecca V.

“Maria was wonderful to work with and really helped us out when we had to go to Canada for the day and couldn’t bring our dog Grover with us. He had a blast with Maria and her dog Lalo, going on walks, playing in a nearby stream and hanging out in her home.”

Anne S.

“Even though Dolores is a timid dog, Jackie always makes her feel right at home! He always sends lots of photos and videos throughout the day and Dolores comes home happy :) as always, thanks Jackie!!”

Kianna G.

“Lauryn was a great sitter! I would definitely recommend her.”

Brian K.

“Colby was attentive and observant with Benny and did a great job with him adapting to the farm! I would highly recommend and will seek her help in the future.”

About: I have always been around dogs and other pets since I was a baby, and have always loved and cherished them. As an adult we have raised and taken care of three cats and dogs. While in the military for 10 years, I was responsible for taking care of many other pets, especially dogs, for other service members while they traveled or deployed. My dog Nigel and I tend to make fast friends with any other dogs we meet! I recently got out of the military, and moved back home to Vermont. I am currently not working, and will be working on online college courses from home for the foreseeable future. Therefore I have a very flexible schedule, and can make all the time necessary to keep any pets entertained and well taken care of! I have a very sweet four year old male English Cream Golden Retriever, named Nigel, who loves friends more than anything (other than treats) and will be my permanent doggie daycare assistant. We have a large 2.5 acre property that is partially fenced, with large yard space to run in, and wooded nature trails in the back for walks and lots of sniffs. We are also about 5 minutes away from a beautiful dog park and miles of nature trails that we try to go to every day.

“Rosen was fantastic, he was extremely communicative. We were up in Burlington just for the weekend and planned to go out to dinner one night and Rosen was so accommodating. He allowed us to drop off our dog for just a few hours so we could relax on vacation. Highly recommend Rosen he is absolutely fantastic.”
