Doggy Day Care in Mendon

“Kevin watched our pug for two days while we attended the Quechee Balloon Festival. He was incredibly flexible with our plans and let us stay out much longer than originally planned. Our pup had a good time, evidenced by the 2nd day when we dropped him off and he ran right to Kevin! The other dogs were a bit noisy and inquisitive but settled right down so it wasn’t a problem. Kevin sent a few photos and video which we much appreciated. If we were in the area again, I wouldn’t hesitate to leave our dog with Kevin once again.”

“Tom was quick to respond and set up a meet and greet with my 14 week old golden retriever. We met him and his very well trained lab Ember and set up daycare for the following day. Very quickly you could see how happy my puppy was to be there as she opened up much quicker then normal. Tom made us feel very comfortable and sent us numerous pictures throughout the day. We will be using him consistently for a longe time!”

“Hope was fantastic with our newly adopted (and somewhat nervous) dog. She was the first person he stayed since we brought him home, and he clearly loved her and felt so relaxed at her house. It was clear right away that Hope has tons of experience with dogs; she wasn't phased by our special requests or our dog's nerves. Also, we were originally going to do day care with her before we knew a storm was coming in, and she was incredibly flexible and let our dog stay with her overnight so we didn't have to drive to her house before the roads were plowed in the AM. I would highly recommend Hope to anyone traveling with their pet to VT!”

About: I have had dogs for all of my life. Through the years I have had a Great Dane, a Doberman, and several mixed-breed dogs. I understand the unique needs of different breeds and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as I work from home, managing multiple online jobs. This allows me to be flexible and available throughout the day to give your pet attention, exercise, and any care they need, ensuring they feel comfortable and well-cared for while you're away. I live in a somewhat secluded area, which makes it easy to take dogs outside for walks or playtime, either on-leash or off-leash, depending on their comfort level and training. My home has plenty of space for dogs to play indoors, so they can stay active and entertained no matter the weather. I prioritize a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for pets, both inside and outside.

“Alyssa is above and beyond my expectation! We don’t live near the area so we were worried about leaving them in an unfamiliar area however she conducted very thorough communications with me beforehand and made sure that we get updates regularly throughout our dog’s day care session. I highly recommend her! She also has the cutest golden retriever who is super friendly with dogs! :) i’ll definitely get back to her when we have another trip around the area.”

“Cannot say enough good things about Sarah, Ben, and their adorable pup Bean! They took such good care of our puppy while we skied. She got to play all day with another dog and snuggle in between! She came home to us exhausted and happy :) Sarah and Ben sent updates throughout the day and included lots of photos which we loved! Could not recommend them enough!!”

“Sean and his partner were fantastic hosts for our sheepadoodle, Shibobo. Our dog is not the easiest to care for since he is large and has a lot of energy, but Sean and his partner made him feel right at home. Sean sent photos and updates and Shibobo had a wonderful stay. I highly recommend Sean!”

“Zach is incredible!! A true dog whisperer. I have left my 4 month old puppy, Goose, with Zach a few times and he takes such wonderful care of him. My pup is a little nervous around people and other dogs but seems to absolutely thrive with Zach and Alfie. I received frequent updates, pictures and videos which made me feel so at ease. I’m so grateful for the care and affection that he gives Goose! Looking forward to more visits in the future! 🐶💕”

“Samantha was wonderful! She was very responsive ahead of time with planning the logistics and sent multiple photos and updates during our pup’s day with her. I felt very comfortable knowing Millie was in good hands and would definitely book with her again.”

“Lorrie was fantastic! Jiminy had a great time and I he really loved her immediately! It was wonderful to have time to take a college tour and not worry about him. Definitely would use her again!”

“We left our dog with Jaimi while skiing for the day at Okemo and it went great. Our dog was a little nervous to go in, but Jaimi sent tons of photos of her relaxed and happy so we knew she was having a good time and being well cared for. Our dog came out happy at the end of the day!”

About: I work remotely for an international development organization based in DC. My schedule is flexible, leaving me plenty of time to spend outdoors with some new furry friends! I have always loved taking care of dogs and come from a large, dog-owning family. I have extensive experience dog walking and sitting both small and large breeds, from Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to Labs to Bernese Mountain Dogs! I currently own a 4 year old white shepherd named Storm who loves to walk and play with other dogs. I am open to taking our pups on walks together, on trail hikes, or to the dog park. Available for daily walks, drop in visits, and dog sitting. I look forward to meeting you! Also open to discussing boarding in our home, pending meet and greet with my dog Storm. I work remotely from home, so I am flexible when taking care of dogs. Happy to work with you on a recurring schedule, or for one-time walks/visits! I work remotely full-time from home and my schedule is flexible. I take my dog, Storm, out for short (less than 30 min) and longer walks (over 1 hour) 2-3 times a day. We also enjoy using nearby trails, as well as the trails on our property. I currently live in a farmhouse in Royalton. There is no fenced in area, but we have trails on our property for dogs to walk (on leash) or run (depending on your comfort and their recall).

“Grace was great! Fast communication and super friendly. My dog was instantly comfortable around her, and I appreciated the pictures I got during her stay with Grace. My dog was definitely tired when I picked her up after a day with Grace!”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs for my entire life. Currently, I own a small 9lb rescue, who is 11 yrs old. In the past, I have owned medium and large dogs as well, including beagles, labs, retrievers. I have professionally and personally walked and fed dogs for neighbors and friends, our furry ones are the very best!! I am a self-employed yoga instructor, with a flexible schedule. With this flexibility, I can accommodate most days and times, both weekdays and weekends. I am organized, punctual, reliable, trustworthy, and communicative. I really enjoy walking every day and it's always better with a dog! My dog, Bodhi, fetches sticks in our backyard and stills plays like a puppy, even at 11yrs old! I take him hiking regularly, as well as to the surrounding parks, which are numerous and all within walking distance from where I live.
