Dog Sitters in East Burke, VT

We've taken Buddy to Kingdom Canine for day care and boarding for nearly 3 yrs since he was a puppy. They love him(even when he's naughty and trying to escape) and he loves them . I recommend Kingdom Canine all the time. Your dog will really like it here.

Do not take your dog there for they don't communicate with each other. I took my pom to get a hair cut, they shave him instead....I said cut...also he was suppose to be feed at noon ...not 3:30...what happens if you have a diabetic dog....it will die, because they will forget to feed it at that time....I was a long time client with them but you never shave a teddy bear pom...even my vet say don't shave ...they knew...and yet insisting on this matter...plus charge me the same amount..dog now has to be sadated for this reason of being shave....call on 6/11/24...they are trying to say I said shave ...when I said cut ....they are freaking lairs....after talking to one this morning...How could they do this to a teddy bear pom...every knows you should not shave them what so ever....I'm done with these idiots cause they don't feed the dog on time as well...God only knows kno0ws what they do when your're not there

I have brought my dog here for daycare for two years since she was a puppy. She loves running and playing with the other dogs, and the staff is very affectionate with her. I would have never boarded my dog at a facility before discovering this place. She’s running and playing during the day, then has her own comfortable “room” not just a crate at night. I’ve been very impressed with the level of care here and would recommend it hands down to anyone with dogs. They are dog people!

Girl's are friendly and helpful. They are very welcome to your needs. Hedi did an awesome job on our 4 month old Shih-tzu!

I recently had my dog, Buddy, stay at this facility. The staff was friendly and Buddy seemed to have a good time. Buddy uses a mortar and pestle to have his medication ground up. When we went to use it this morning, it was broken and had been taped together. I wish we had been made aware so that I could have bought another one. Lastly, the choke collar, that we were told was in his box of things, is not. Besides those two things, the facility was not bad.

Deanna and staff create a welcoming, safe and fun environment. Our pup loves daycare, and he has also been attending manners class and we have all learned so much. The positive rewards-based training is more for us 2 legged animals; we learn how to better communicate with our 4 legged companions to elicit the desired good behaviors.

I bring my cat here to get her nails cut. Everyone is very friendly & have my Abby back to me in minutes! Well worth the money to have them do it!

Quick appointment and Jack, a standard poodle, looked fabulous! Excellent value, too. Place was friendly and clean. Overall a great experience.

First time going there to get my cat nails cut very Friendly workers I will definitely take my cat there again

My Pitt bull loves to go there. He enjoys playing with other dogs.

I highly recommend this pet sitter! She is skilled, patient and experienced. I have 5 cats and 2 dogs, an aggressive cat and a cat that has diabetes and she handles all their individual needs providing excellent care. She offers home visits for cats and personal dog boarding in her own home. I don’t trust many people with me pets, Juanita is wonderful, we are so lucky to have her in our area!.

My family and I have been skiing at Burke Mountain our whole lives but never used a doggy day care for our two dogs while spending the day skiing. Nita at Angel's Furry Souls was extremely nice and welcoming of our two dogs (both small to mid-sized) and the paperwork we had to fill out was quick and easy online prior to drop off. Our dogs looked as if they never left us and will most definitely be back again!

Juanita helped us out in a pinch for a short-planned mountain biking weekend. Super convenient to Burke mountain and kingdom trails. She is very friendly and knowledgeable, and her pricing is very reasonable. Your fur baby is in good hands. Thank you Juanita!

Our pup Penny loves going to Andrea’s for playgroups and boarding. The smaller pack size is great for our rambunctious boxer and she’s so happy and tired when she gets home. The pickups and dropoffs are super convenient for our busy schedule and Penny cries for joy when she realizes Andrea is there to get her! Highly recommended Andrea’s animal care!

Our dog, Gobbles, participates in 2 of Andrea’s play groups every week and she loves it. We also love the pick up/drop-off addition to the play group!. We’ve seen tremendous improvement in the way she plays and interacts with other dogs. We highly recommend Andrea’s Animal Care!

Andrea's playgroups have been such a great experience for our spirited female Labrador. Andrea carefully screens dogs before integrating them into her services. In fact, we worked hard training and improving her boundary, listening and social skills before she was ready to go to Andrea's. It was worth the effort - now she is a playgroup regular and has done overnight stays as well. Our pup has really learned from Andrea's manager dogs and the other well balanced dogs in the group. We are so thankful to Andrea for her patience, clear direction and care with Wilma.

I feel so grateful to have found Andrea’s Animal Service. From the start, Andrea was approachable, kind, and responsive, and flexible with my schedule. Andrea never misses a beat—when making plans about my dog, I always receive a reminder message a few days before to confirm, and she follows all the directions for my dog’s pickup. Speaking of, the fact that Andrea comes and picks up my pup from my house and drops her off is a luxury, and I feel like my dog is well cared for and loved by her. My dog always runs up to Andrea wagging her tail, so happy to see her every time. Andrea is a clear and open communicator and has a wonderful space at her house, indoor and out, for the dogs to romp around and play together, or to sit quietly and rest if that’s what the dogs need. Andrea is perceptive to all of her animals, carefully observant and senses her dogs well. I have nothing but good things to say about Andrea, and I would highly recommend her services to anyone who is looking for daytime or overnight care for their animals.

We have been sending our dog to Andrea's Animal Care for both daytime care as well as longer overnight stays when we are traveling and the experience has been amazing. Our dog is a rescue that was quite nervous when we adopted him and his time at Andrea's has helped immensely with socialization. He is undoubtedly a happier, more confident dog since his time with Andrea's crew! We trust Andrea 100% and would highly recommend her services.

Our pup Toby LOVES going to Andrea's house! He attends playgroup once a week where he has improved his socialization skills. He also enjoys extended stays with Andrea when we go away. We travel with ease knowing that he is in the comfort of a caring home. Her transport service makes life so easy. We are grateful for Andrea's services!

Our golden doodle, Gracie, has been going to Andrea’s for the past year. She started at 5 months old, so she considers Andrea’s home her second home. She loves going for daycare each week, and gets so excited when Andrea comes to pick her up! The first time Gracie boarded, we were missing her, and Andrea sent us pictures every day! We really appreciate that Andrea follows through on training that we have worked on at home! We’re so thankful for Andrea, and her boys, for providing a wonderful home environment for our pup, and taking such good care of Gracie! We highly recommend Andrea’s Animal Care business!

We have known Andrea since she first started her business. Winston was one of her first dogs to become a part of her family and business. Since then we have had 2 more dogs be a part of her services through the years. She has seen them from puppyhood to their last years and no matter what stage they were in life, I knew that they were well cared for and loved when I couldn’t be with them. Andrea is thoughtful in her approach to making sure our dogs are comfortable. Not only is she great with our dogs but she’s a wonderful person too. We treat our dogs like they are part of our family and Andrea does too. I highly recommend Andreas Animal Care.

Andrea has been caring for our Golden Retriever in weekly playgroups and when we need to board our dog. Andrea is incredibly reliable and great with our dog. He loves riding in the car with Andrea and it’s been a fantastic experience watching our dog learn to positively interact with other dogs and help them integrate into play groups. We highly recommend Andrea’s Animal Care!

WE LOVE ANDREA'S ANIMAL CARE!! We have employed Andrea on several occasions, often for as long as a week, when we have been away on vacation or for other reasons. Andrea is always immediately responsive to our requests and, more importantly, our beloved dog always seems thrilled to see her and then so content after some time at her place. I don't know if he's exactly sad to come home, but it's obvious he has been loved and well cared-for when he's been with Andrea, and that is a great comfort. She clearly loves animals and is always delighted to see our sometimes rambunctious dog. A bonus is that she sends occasional texts and photos while we're gone, telling us about his happy adventures. Not too much, just enough to reassure us. And communications about the pickup and drop off times are always very clear. I can't praise this business enough!

An absolute game changer for the emotional well being of our anxious pups. Professional, knowledgeable, skilled, and ready to expertly manage anything presented to them. This is the gold standard for dog care.

Jeff and his staff are very friendly and Heff is very knowledgeable about dogs training. We love sending our Rotty to the day camp.

A Fantastic Experience at Off the Beaten Trail Canine Facility We recently had the pleasure of utilizing the boarding services at "Off the Beaten Trail Canine Facility" for our dog Rocky, and we couldn't be happier with the experience (including him). Right from our initial contact via email, they impressed us. Upon arriving at the facility, we were greeted by the owner, Jeff, whose warm and friendly demeanor instantly made us feel like we had made the right choice. Jeff's evident love and understanding of dogs, as well as his dedication to their well-being, gave us the utmost confidence that Rocky was in capable hands. Rocky's day at the facility was nothing short of fantastic. Knowing he was spending the day socializing with other dogs while we embarked on a day of mountain biking allowed us to fully enjoy our adventure without any worries. The facility's emphasis on creating a stimulating and safe environment for the dogs was palpable, and based on how hard Rocky slept that night it was clear that he was having a blast. In summary, our experience with Off the Beaten Trail Canine Facility exceeded our expectations. The professionalism, warmth, and dedication of the staff, coupled with the delightful atmosphere for dogs, make it an outstanding choice for anyone seeking boarding services. Thank you, Jeff, and the entire team. We can't wait for our next mountain biking trip, knowing that Rocky will have his own adventure too.

Kudos to Jeff and all the crew at Off the Beaten Trail! We’ve had our Lola in all the trainings they offer since she was a pup and she has had lots of socialization in weekly day care. Most recently she’s been doing great with off leash walking and recall we learned with their e-collar Green Mountain Training. Highly recommend for all types of training, day care and boarding. So glad they are such a special and valued part of our NEK community. :)

When my wife decided I needed my FIRST EVER dog (grew up with cats and still have 3 of them), which had to be a lab no less, for my 60th birthday I had no clue what I was in for. After 3 months, of reading books, listing to pod casts and recommendations from friends, we reached out to Jeff and his team for HELP. Jeff has been blessed with the patience, love for dogs and the innate understanding of what Dogs are looking for and more importantly how to share that understanding with their owner. For the first early last month we were able to walk our dog without getting dragged begin her. Then earlier this week, we had her off the leash (in a controlled area) and she was amazing. Running around, while making sure she always kept us in her sights. I can't say enough about Jeff and his team and highly recommend them! Its finally a pleasure (and not a tug of war) to take out Dog for a walk.

My pup has a great time at daycare. She comes home tired. I love that there's a trail they get to run on. I like that they did an evaluation to make sure she was a fit with the pack.

I'd give this place a billion stars if I could!!! Jeff is SO knowledgeable and seems to have such a natural communication technique with ANY dog. This place is amazing, and the support they offer before, during, and after is simply unmatched. I am forever in their debt; they gave my dog a whole new lease on life, and provided me with all the tools necessary for successful, long-term behavior change. Thank you thank you THANK YOUUUU!!!

Thankful to be able to leave and know my girl is in the best care possible. This service has been incredible for my nervous older dog and in socializing my new puppy. Cannot say enough nice things about the staff. If you are debating whether it is right for you and your dog...DO IT, you will not regret it.

In the area vacationing and needed a place for 2 days for our Shepherd, Kaia. They were very interested and understandable about her temperament and some social anxiety she has. Explained exactly how she would be handled and what her day would be like. Asked if that all sounded fine and if we were comfortable with the plan. They took pictures for FB during day so we could see how she was doing. They really seem to know and understand dogs. Place was clean, the dogs there all came out in the fenced enclosure and seemed happy. Pricing was reasonable. Wish this place was in my home town.

Jeff and staff are incredible with the dogs. My pups love going. We've done training boarding, and socials . Dogs get the best care and social time is supervised so it's a safe environment for dogs to play. GO!!

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Exceptional Dog Sitter! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Debby during one of the most important days of our lives—our wedding! Not only did she take amazing care of our dog, but she went above and beyond by bringing him to the wedding venue (dressed in his lil bandana "tuxedo" and fancy collar as requested) so he could be part of our ceremony. Afterward, she took him back home, allowing us to fully enjoy our reception knowing he was safe, happy, and well cared for. It was such a relief to have someone so reliable and thoughtful looking after him. We highly recommend Debby to anyone looking for a caring and professional sitter. Thank you for everything! 🐾❤️

Debby was so amazing taking care of our dog, Ranger during our wedding weekend! It is clear that she is passionate about dogs and making the wedding day/weekend go exactly as planned when it comes to including your pup. She took the time to meet with us beforehand to get to know us and our goals for the weekend. Not only did she make sure Ranger looked perfect on the day (brushed out, clean and with his flower collar intact), but she was prompt and had him at our ceremony for photos at the time we had planned. It was such a relief knowing that Ranger was so well taken care of on our wedding weekend and we are so grateful that we found Debby!

Debby was absolutely amazing with my dog at my wedding! It was such a relief to know my dog was taken care of and such a treat to get to have her participation in the wedding without any stress. Debby even groomed her prior to pictures to make sure she was all ready! I highly recommend her.

Debby took such great care of our pup throughout our wedding weekend. She rented an AirBnb near our venue so they could be close by and then exercised with him the morning of our wedding to try to tire him out for wedding photos. She also got our dog prepped in his wedding tux! We love our dog but didn't want to stress him out leaving him alone for long periods during our wedding and are so glad we had Debby's help. Would 100% recommend her to our friends!

Debby took care of our Labrador Finn during our wedding weekend in Stowe. I think Finn may have had more fun than we did as she spent the time hiking, swimming and boating with Debby! Debby sent us updates all weekend, and also brought Finn onsite to participate in the ceremony and cocktail hour. Can't recommend Laughing Dogs enough!

Debby has been walking my dog for over a year when I am away on business trips. I have hiked with Debby with her pack - and have been so impressed with her skills with dogs. She is realiable, responsible and is firm yet gentle with all dogs. Debby takes dogs where they are at and provides the services they need. She is calm and loving and you can see it when 6 dogs sit at her feet and wait, one by one, to get their treats. I recommend Debby with the highest of recommendations.

Great service! Very personable and responsible. My dog loved her and had a great time!

We absolutely love John and his wife, they take exceptional care of our boy Sully when he is there! We cannot mention "Daycare" to him when at home or he goes nuts because he wants to go back. He goes every Wednesday, he would be going more if we had a way to get him there more but we both work before there open. Highly recommend!!

We dropped our dog and cat at this facility for the duration of a trip we took. They are wonderful and loved our little pom-chi and thought he was adorable. They were not so kind about our cat which surprised us as we knew her to be a very friendly cat. Of note is the fact that she has never been left at a kennel before. We were kind of worried about how she would behave after having brought her home. Once we got her home she was fine. So we had to conclude that her bad behavior was due to her being in strange surroundings. So the kennel scored very well with us.

Littleton Pet Center provided great daycare for our doggy while we were visiting the area for several weeks. Gerry loved going to play with friends and we always felt like he was in great hands there. They love him just as we do. Highly recommend them for your pups.

John and his staff take excellent care of Gracie. She loves going to doggie daycare. They groom her on a regular basis and she looks beautiful. John goes beyond to help with kenneling and answering new puppy questions. The entire staff is friendly creating a welcoming environment for pets and "parents."

We really liked this place until COVID hit. We had given them a few hundred dollars toward future daycare visits right before. It understandably closed for a while. In July and August, we tried several times to reach them by phone and left messages. When that didn't work, we wrote an email. Their response was a bit dismissive considering all the money I had paid in advance. I understand where they're coming from about only taking their regulars, but we are Littleton locals, not COVIDIOT tourists. I respectfully asked for a refund so we could take our girls elsewhere. We need a place for them to play with other dogs for a couple hours while we work. We haven't heard back in 9 days. I just want people to know that this could happen to them because not everyone can afford to lose this kind of money during these difficult times.

This place is as people friendly as it is "pet friendly". Everyone I met was as pleasant as possible and everyone seemed to go out of their way to assure me my "Minnie" would be taken care of. While anyone can say a pet will be ok; these people did exactly what they said. I think they all know every pet by name. This is customer service for the pet AND the pet owner.

I drop my dog off for service before I went to a meeting to be groomed, the service was very rude right off, as I came back from my meeting I pulled up and notice my dog out in a pen with other dogs and my dog being attacked and the staff was listening to music oblivious till I went in and freaked!!! out and my dog was covered in bite marks and needed stitches i was devastated as I brought my dog to the vet all they had to say was she was late for a shot and were all concerned about that instead of the well being of my dog, this place needs to be shut down

My cat stays here every time I need to go out of town. The people are friendly and accommodating and the cattery seems to be quite nice.

Thank you so very much for always taking such good care of Dallas. Just had him groomed again last week. Amazing job. Thank you again.

Love the care and playfulness of the owners and how they treat the kids in their care. Mando comes home happy and tired!

Professional and clean; Izzy always asks to go back 🙄!!! And Newport, VT is a great visit! …

What a lovely and calm experience! I took one of our pups to get her nails trimmed and the kind owner got us an appointment for the very next day. Her nails have never looked better!!! The facility looked incredibly clean and the dogs that were playing outside seemed well taken care of and relaxed. What a wonderful experience, thank you!

My girl after her stay at the oasis! She LOVED it there and came back looking AMAZING! I would definitely take her back!

Totally did not do what was asked (a trim - they shaved our dog). No apology - stating, " she looks good". Now we deal with her undercoat possibly never growing back and potential skin problems.(vet and new groomer verified) DO NOT groom your dog here.

WOW! My pup has never looked better! I had an outstanding first experience at Oasis. I called and got lucky with a grooming appointment due to a cancellation and he was able to get my dog in right away. The owner had a calm and kind demeanor - you can tell immediately he has a love for animals and the personality to work well with them. My dog has been shedding badly and after his grooming session he looks 10 pounds lighter and is so much happier. The groom was thorough and done with attention to detail, which I greatly appreciate. Will definitely be coming back for regular grooming appointments. Thank you!

Oasis are first class. Owner Andy has frequently looked after my dogs many times over the years. His facilities are great, my dogs look forward to staying there, and it gives me peace of mind to know they are being so well looked after. Andy deserves ten stars out of ten, we are so fortunate to have Oasis.

Thanks Andy. I picked up my Maya the other day and could tell that she was happy with her 3 week stay. She probably will miss playing with the other dogs. I'll bring her again for sure.

Until I moved here my dogs have never been boarded so I was nervous. There was no reason to be! This place is so great for them and I feel comfortable dropping them off. My boy dog is always like “bye” when I drop him off because he loves it so much. I get my old girl groomed here and never make any request because I am happy every time. Highly recommend.

We just recently moved to Newport, and needed to board the dog for several days while we accepted deliveries and established the house. They were excellent and loving, while also taking appropriate precautions amid the pandemic. Hopefully, the day will soon come when we can interact a little more closely. Sophie loved it here. I would certainly recommend them to anyone seeking to board in Northern VT.

Andy Ownes Oasis If You Want Your Pet Groomed He Is The Go To Person Does A Great Job Oasis Is Also Dog Day Care If Anyone Needs To Board Their Dog Andy Does That Too I Highly Recommend Oasis

Amazing Doggy Hotel for our Furbabies. We had a last minute need to board our two dogs, a large St Bernard and a puppy . They took them on short notice, stayed in contact the whole time, let me come check on them and visit. It was so clean and the owners are so sweet and kind and all smiles. Amazing people and Kennel . Thank you!!! -Cora

Wonderful breeders and a great place for boarding. Rodger and Marge care for the dogs like they are their own. The dogs get safety, discipline, and lots of love.

Got my Sussex Spaniel from Roger & Margery and very impressed with him. Great folks to deal with, and had a great experience.

Got our GSP from them 9 years ago. Got a great dog and made some good friends at the same time. We bring him back at least twice year to visit. High quality breeder.

Knowledgeable and caring breeder. We're very happy with our puppy.

Above average in every respect, our Greta is a fantastic house dog and outstanding hunter. Easy to train and 10/10 temperament.

Absolutely love this kennel ! Professional, dependable, passionate. Outstanding owner/ operators , your dogs will well cared for . Don't hesitate to contact Roger and Marge .

Have purchased three GSP’s from them and they have all bd fantastic dogs. Well bred for bird hunting or family pet.

Definitely recommend Gun dog kennels and they made the process of getting our boy so easy!!

Great people. We're excited to add her to our family. Thank you.

We had to board our Aussie pup last-minute for the first night of our trip to Stowe, and Ally made her first kennel experience so smooth. We were worried to leave her but she LOVED Ally and even got to play with some doggy friends. We would definitely recommend her services to anyone and will bring Charlotte to visit again if we ever need to board her in the future!

Ally treats your dogs like they're her own. She is knowledgeable, friendly and offers a terrific setting for outdoor dog exercise and indoor calm. It's a good feeling knowing that my energetic black lab is in the best care with Ally.

Ally is the best. She updated me daily when we were gone for a week. I could reach out and she always answered. Our three dogs were very well taken care of and loved. I would highly recommend Ally!

My dogs are always happy to arrive at Ally's and tired when they get home. We use doggie daycare services and boarding and I feel very confident that they are very well taken care of and enjoying themselves while I can't be with them.

We don’t often post, but after our experience we’d love to see more families with furry little ones consider Ally so writing a little recommendation. We are not locals and she worked with us for full day care while the family enjoyed wintertime activities. We’ll definitely be ringing again when our travels take us near Hyde Park!

Ally's facility is clean neat and well taken care off. Every time she boards mine or other family members dogs we know they are in great hands. They don't even want to leave when we go to pick them up.

Ally makes your dog part of her pack. Long walks, socialization and TLC are part of daily care. Clear and quick communications. I highly recommend Ally’s Pet Service!

Ally is fantastic! She will love and care for your dog as if it they are her own! Premium care no matter the length of stay. My dog’s second home!

My dog is a rescue and has stranger anxiety. She does great with Ally and I always know she is being well cared for when I leave her there.

Amazing service, and such a great environment. I've moved a lot and tried a ton of services. Ally's pet sitting service is by far one of the best.

I highly recommend Vermont Critter Sitters, they have changed my life! Until now, I've had such a hard time finding anyone I could trust to take Jack (lab mix) out and tire him out, specially at short notice. Using the app was SOOO easy! Aaron and Zoila did an amazing job, Jack was exhausted that night and I loved seeing the check ins they sent with photos and all! Thank you!

When we went away for a long weekend and needed someone to stay with our dog, we got in touch with Vermont Critter Sitters. They were AWESOME! Our dog can be shy with new people, but she did great with Molly & Zoila! We got adorable photo and email updates a couple times a day - they went on long walks and played fetch in the yard - I think the dog may have had a better weekend than us! Highly Recommend!

I was looking forward to a ski vacation, but not looking forward to leaving my puppy at home. Luckily, I found a pet friendly hotel. And Vermont Critter Sitters!!! Trusting my dog to a stranger is hard. But from the beginning Aaron was professional and reassuring. His timely responses helped me confirm my hotel reservations. Once we arrived, my puppy readily welcomed Aaron into her pack. I received pictures and updates of all their outings and games from Aaron. He even took some great shots of me and my puppy! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my furry friend was well looked after. Thank you Aaron and Vermont Critter Sitters!! We’ll be back. 🐾🐾

We have used the services of VT Critter Sitters on a monthly basis since November 2019. They have always been punctual and we appreciate their emails at the start and the completion of each visit. They always include photos of our pets and a summary of the visit. It is a comfort knowing that reliable and caring people are taking care of our pets in our absence. Highly recommended.

They were amazing with our free roam rabbit! He doesn’t usually allow pets from strangers or even really come out much around strangers but he was very active with Aaron and we got pics from every visit he had with him. It was really nice to go about our vacation and be able to see how our buns doing every day with description of visits, pics, and even how long he was there for that day. Definitely recommend

Reliable, responsible, reasonably priced, trustworthy and friendly. You're not going to let just anyone take care of your pet never mind allow them access to your home to do so. I have complete trust in VT Critter Sitters in both regards.

Aaron is INCREDIBLY professional, kind and loves my dogs. Amazing service and excited to work with them further on a monthly basis for over nights and day stop ins/walks for my dogs.

5 stars! Will use again!

Great friendly prompt service
