PLEASE READ ALL OF THE BELOW BEFORE BOOKING !! 🐶 Mutt Season Dog Retreat is located in East Calais, VT DAYCARE & BOARDING HOURS 🕗 Daycare: 8 AM–6 PM (10 hrs included) ⏰ Early or late? +$25 by request ⛺ Over 10 hrs = boarding rate 🛏 Boarding: 24 hrs from drop-off 🕒 2–8 hrs late = +50% nightly 🌙 8+ hrs late = +100% (extra night) Please confirm drop-off/pickup times when booking. Unplanned overages may be charged. MUST LOVE DOGS & CATS Boarding + Daycare in our home I live with four other people: one human (my partner Jason), one canine (a 2-year-old Border Collie Poodle girl), and two felines (a 1-year-old girl and a 13-year-old queen). All of them are very friendly and well socialized. However, this means that if I board your dog, or take them in for daycare, they have to be familiar and respectful with cats, and well-socialized with dogs. Ideally they love playing and chasing (but not the cats). I work from home on my budding dog business, and I am enrolled in two different prestigious academies, studying canine behavior and training. It is easy for me to have another dog around, but I will require a visit to my house first to ensure the dogs get along, and your dog won't chase my cats. Ideally, we go for a walk together first, to give the dogs the opportunity to meet on neutral turf. I will only take one guest dog at a time. They'll get to play to their heart's content with my dog in a fully fenced large yard. My partner Jason and I just love all animals. I will be your sitter / primary caretaker, but in our home, Jason will give a lot of additional affection and attention, when he's around. I’ve been a dog parent for over 20 years, and have lots of experience with all ages and special needs. I am very diligent about catering to your dog’s specific needs and keeping you updated as frequently as you like, including lots of pictures. FORCE-FREE POLICY I will never use choke, prong, slip, or e-collars of any kind. If you want me to take your dog on walks, please bring a harness for safety. I usually drive my own dog to various trails in the area every morning and we go 3+ miles, I'd be happy to take yours on hikes, too, if they like car rides and can handle the exercise. Your dog will be with me and my dog all day long. Throughout the day, I take frequent breaks and let them out, be it for more walks, or a game of fetch or chase in our large yard. As soon as I'm certified as a dog trainer, I'll be happy to take on training as well. I will watch your dog in my home. I’ll adhere to their normal schedule and needs. They'll have a friendly play buddy in my own dog.
About: I strive to provide a structured environment for day care as well as boarding. I have experience with pet dogs, as well as working dogs and high energy breeds. I am available to provide care for your dog(s) in my house, and can offer the following services for your pet: -Individual walks/runs -Swimming adventures -Swimming in our inground pool (Texas only) -Basic training (obedience/manners) -Play time All dogs will be cared for individually and separately- I will not have your dog out with any other dogs while they are in my care. I accept a max of 3 dogs per day to ensure that I can allocate proper time and attention to each dog. I work from home, and am available 24/7 to give your dog the individual attention they need. Let me know your goals- whether it's working on basic obedience training, incorporating more exercise into your dog's schedule, or simply having a day care/boarding location that provides a level of structure without adding other dogs into the mix. This can be especially beneficial for dogs who are reactive, as well as senior dogs who are not necessarily interested in playing with other dogs. Any dogs being boarded, or coming for doggy daycare will have some time spent in a crate during the day/overnight. They will be given individual attention, exercise and play time.
“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!”
“Maria was great with our high-energy dog! They went on a hike and went to the dog park, and Maria’s pups were great playmates. Freyja came home exhausted and went straight to sleep. You know what they say; a tired dog is a good dog. Maria was very accommodating with Freyja’s specific needs, too! Freyja would go back in a heartbeat!”
“Kevin (and his sweet greyhound) took great care of my dog for the day! He was very flexible when our schedule changed by about 90 min and we picked her up later than planned. So grateful!”
About: I grew up with cats, fostered dogs in my early 20s, and had the most incredible K9 companion for 14 years. My 14-year-old dog, Hendrix, passed on about two years ago and I am missing his presence and energy A LOT. I want to share my love with some more animals by providing dog walking and animal care for others. Previously, I have cared for and walked dogs for folks in the communities I've lives in via word of mouth. I've also been a volunteer at a local animal shelter, fostering and walking dogs. I have plenty of references upon request that can attest to my trustworthiness as well as the compassionate care I provide. I work from home and my schedule is fairly flexible. I can provide a comforting home for your animal to stay during the day and/or overnight. There are trails right outside my home that are great for walking so your dog would receive many lovely walks throughout the day. I will care for your pet as if they are mine and provide them with compassion, attention, exercise, and play. I will adopt the routine that the animal is familiar with and that best meets their needs. They will be in good hands!
About: i recently moved to the area from new york and i’m looking for something fun to do for work. i absolutely love animals. they’re so intelligent and fun and loving. i would love to take care of animals on a daily basis. i am a caring and loving person and have always had quite the love for animals. i have always had dogs and cats in my home growing up. with that being said, i wouldn’t mind walking dogs, stopping by to play or feed animals, staying for hours with them, or just frequently seeing them. i have been trying to find jobs around the area and nothing has really spoken to me. i found that people need dog sitters and i thought it would be a good idea to try and get out there and meet people and have fun with animals all day
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!

Julia T.
“Julia has known my pup, Charlie, for over a decade, and has cared for him countless times. There is not a single person that I trust more while I am away. She is incredibly diligent, and cares about the safety and well-being of my pup as if he were her own. I always come back to a happy, tired, and loved-on guy. My only worry is that he won’t want to come back home with me!”

April R.
“You couldn’t leave your pup in better hands! April has taken care of our fur babies many times. She’s responsible and dependable and our dogs are always ecstatic to see her. Although our Bernese and Labrador are different ages, with different personalities and needs, April always treats both as her own- with care, respect, and love. As a dog owner herself, she understands the attention to detail that pets require. Highly recommend her!”

Brooke M.
“I am beyond lucky and grateful to have Brooke in my life. She’s the kind of person you can always count on—dependable, honest, and hardworking. She makes everyone around her feel at ease. Brooke’s love for animals shines in everything she does and she has even started fostering dogs in order to find them their perfect home. She’s patient, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful, always making sure that everyone (two-legged or four-legged) feels cared for and safe. I’ve seen firsthand how dedicated she is, not only to her friends and family but also to any task or responsibility she takes on. Whether it’s helping a friend in need or going the extra mile to make sure things are done right. I can’t think of anyone I’d trust more with my pets. She has such a calm and nurturing energy, and I know any pet in her care will feel just as lucky to have her as I do.”
