Dog Boarding in Shaftsbury, VT

“Ericca took very good care of my dog while I was gone for three days. She sent updates and photos without me even asking, and he was in great spirits when I picked him up. Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“Emily is a natural with dogs! She always ensures Murphy comes home tired. Emily has been a huge part of my dogs life including taking him for walks / hikes and boarding him. Murphy can be a reactive dog but it always amazes how well Emily can handle him around his triggers. Can not recommend her enough!”

“Davis is absolutely wonderful with dogs! We HIGHLY recommend her! She has helped us foster 5 rescue dogs in the past year. From young puppies to a senior dog ❤️🐾🐾 Davis is our favorite foster, we know the pups are well loved and cared for. She is incredibly responsible and is phenomenal with the dogs! She understands their needs, can read their body language and is all around a very dog savvy person 😊 We can’t say enough good things about her! Anyone would be very lucky to have her care for their pups! I can’t imagine a better dog walker/sitter ❤️🐾🐾”

“We cannot say enough nice things about Laura. She took our two medium sized dogs in for over a week when we were in a pinch. She took all of our instructions to make sure our dogs were well taken care of and kept us updated with pictures the entire time…which helped us enjoy our vacation free of worry!”

“Our two GSD’s had another great stay at Anastasia’s. She is so flexible and accommodating!! We love all the pictures/updates she sends while our dogs are there & we’re away, and they always come home exhausted!!! A win for us when you have 2 high energy dogs 😜”

“Brit is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! My cat, who is generally pretty picky about who he lets care for him, loves her. She is attentive, reliable, generous with pets and scritches, and is even good at giving pills. I’ve been thrilled with Brit as a cat sitter, and you and your pets are going to adore her, too. I highly recommend Brit!”

“Our dog had a fabulous stay with Mahayla! Since it was our first time, Mahayla offered to come to our home to get to know our pup before caring for her the next day. They hit it off immediately and Mahayla explained her background in animal/dog behavior studies and reassured us that all would go well... and it did! Our pup had a blast trail hiking and also just relaxing at Mahayla's home. Mahayla clearly understands and loves dogs, and it was clear that she was focused on our dog's enjoyment, comfort level and care. She was also focused on our needs as the owners. Leading up to care day she was extremely responsive. On care day she sent photos and updates. A perfect stay...thanks, Mahayla!”

“Hope is a wonderful boarder and I will definitely request her services again. She was very responsive on the app and her property is lovely. Heidi had a terrific time with her new friends and looked happy and healthy when we picked her up.”

“I was nervous about boarding Mazie because she's never been away from home. She's older and has minor medical needs. I could not have been happier. Kennadi took such amazing care of my baby and sent lots of pictures. She even introduced her dogs to Mazie so she made friends! I would highly recommend her and I'll never be afraid to leave Mazie with her again. Love, love, love!!!”

“It was my first time using Rover but Laurie made me feel totally comfortable with the process and I’m so glad that I didn’t go with the traditional boarding option. Asher got to run around the yard and socialize with the other pups and the daily updates and pictures were great! The whole experience was excellent and I couldn’t have asked for a better peace of mind while on vacation knowing that he was in good hands.”

“We had a great experience with Desiree. Our husky Kona stayed with her for a couple days and was absolutely exhausted from all the fun! Desiree sent us daily photos of our dog and was very flexible with our pickup/ drop off timing.”

“Larry has take wonderful care of Cricket. He is attentive to her needs and she loves seeing him!”

“Tiffany was great! Was able to book last minute for a weekend and took great care of our dogs. Very communicative and sent pics throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again!”

“Brittany took amazing care of our 1.5 year old Samoyed. Drop off / pick-up was super easy. She kept us posted on how our dog was doing during our trip. She was also awesome at introducing her two dogs to ours to make sure they weren't thrown into a weird situation! We could tell our dog had a great time :)”

“Kaitlin is absolutely amazing! I've been using her for the last couple of months and my pup Lailah really has taken to her. Lailah experiences some separation anxiety so its a good feeling to not hear her screaming down the hall after I drop her off :) Kaitlin also does a very good job keeping in the loop while I'm away, and provides Lailah with plenty of entertainment including taking her to Central Park and Randall's Island. Always an adventure. Not to mention, she takes the best pics lol.”

“Josie is a very nice person and took great care of my dog, Will. It sounds like Will really enjoyed playing with her dog and being around her children, which is socialization that he really needs and loves. They walked him and let him play in the snow. I highly recommend Josie.”

“Alyssa is amazing with our older pup Daisy. Daily updates with pictures and videos of her adventures. Would recommend for all of your pets stays, short or long!”

“Wayne and and his pup Sarge form an exceptional duo when it comes to caring for my beloved best friend, Logan. Even before the booking took place, I had the opportunity to meet Wayne twice. These interactions left me confident that Logan would feel at ease in his new home during the 10-day stay. Equally important, Wayne himself established a comfortable rapport with Logan. Despite Logan's initial anti-social tendencies, the regular updates from Wayne provided a heartwarming surprise. Through the cute pictures and videos, I witnessed Logan gradually breaking out of his shell. Wayne's commitment to communication was unwavering—he kept me informed daily. In addition to their exceptional care, Wayne offers a delightful backyard where our furry friends can frolic and play. The space provides ample room for dogs to stretch their legs, chase after toys, and enjoy the fresh air. But that's not all—Wayne's thoughtful touch extends to a short trail perfect for mentally stimulating walks. These walks are not only physically invigorating but also engage Logan's curious mind. As a result of this positive experience, I wholeheartedly intend to return to Wayne and Sarge for future dog-sitting needs or even casual playdates. Wayne's knowledgeable approach and Logan's trust in him make this duo truly exceptional. Rest assured, your beloved dog won't experience a moment of boredom. Wayne's home truly becomes a home away from home for our four-legged companions. 🐾”

“Eric was amazing with my two girls! I got lots of photos to see how well they were doing while I was away. Would highly recommend Eric if you're looking for someone to watch your pup!”
