My husband and I had to go out of town unexpectedly. We were only able to take our little dog…read more That meant leaving our big guy Bruno, our cat Sketchy and our old sage Basil. I was nervous leaving them, but after meeting Cheryl my concerns and fears were much less. Cheryl left us activity logs explaining the things she did with our "babies" from watering them to playing with them. Our old cat (who is over 15) even came out and was very affectionate with Cheryl. You have to understand how shy Basil is with strangers to appreciate that significant moment. It warmed my heart tremendously to see Basil and Cheryl interact together. Cheryl was wonderful with all our "babies". I can't imagine having anyone but Cheryl watch our "babies" in the future. She's warm, affectionate and caring. The fact she knows pet first aid only added to my confidence in her. In my honest opinion she is the best if the best!

Even though he'd never cared for rabbits before, Jason seemed like a natural. He came over to meet the buns, asked a lot of questions and spent some time getting to know them. I trusted him right away and the bunnies did too. He did a great job taking care of them while I was away, and the picture texts of the bunnies eating really set me at ease. I highly recommend Jason's Pet Care - I will certainly be using his services again!

I knew he would be the guy when he walked in for the interview and immediately got down on our dog's level and introduced himself to Bruiser first. Over the course of the weekend he took Bruise on several hour-long walks, always showing him the kind of attention that we do ourselves. I have complete trust in Jason and we will definitely call on him again!

My wife and I boarded our 1 dog and 3 cats as well as my wife's parents boarded their dog recently…read morefor the first time. We have never had any issues at any boarding place but when we picked up our animals our dog had diarrhea in the parking lot and proceeded to have it for a week. Our cats have all been sick and sneezing and coughing and having diarrhea as well. My father in laws dog has kennel cough now and had diarrhea as well. When I called to inquire they brushed it off as anxiety and stress which we have never had an issues with before. We asked if there was anything else and they told us they board strays there as well and could not guarantee that diseases wouldn't spread due to this which was NEVER disclosed to us at any point or my wife's parents in the months leading up to us boarding or at any point during any of our communication. The vet my wife's parents took their dog to told them to not ever use this place again due to all of this and the high risk of disease spreading.

They were wonderful and seemed to truly care about the dogs they take in. We have used a well known and over crowded place in So. Burlington and every time we picked up our dog she couldn't wait to get out of there, would drink TONS of water when she got home, and usually came down with kennel cough. At Stowe Kennel Kare our dog seemed in no rush to leave, showed lots of love towards the owner, and did not need bowl after bowl of water when she got home. The price was worth the peace of mind knowing she was well taken care of while we were away. We will definitely be using them in the future!

The staff were wonderful and so great with Maslow. We visited him every day and he was happy, active, and playing with all the other dogs. When we would leave him after a visit, he would run back into the kennel because he couldn't wait to play with everyone again! He wasn't anxious or upset in the slightest. I would highly recommend Stowe Kennel Kare!

We boarded our English bulldog for four nights while we went on a camping trip in the Adirondacks…read more We were nervous about boarding him at our local spot in Manhattan during Covid-19, and found this place through a good review on Yelp. When we spoke with Karen she explained that they only board 7 dogs at a time, and take care to reduce health risks. Our bulldog had a great time, with lots of one-on-one time to play with the owners and other dogs boarding. Also a plus is that their fees are so much more reasonable than kennels in Manhattan. When we visit the area again we will definitely return to Maple Lawn B&B.

I don't know if their dogs are perfect but man was I made to feel horrible. Would not pay ever again to have my dog in a fenced in area in a garage filled with other dogs. Didn't meet the husband but the wife was enough. If you really want a good space for your dog please check out Milton Manor near Saratoga where your dog will have its own private shed. That way if your dog is barking during times the owner doesn't approve maybe she can just tune it out.

We are so forever grateful to Debby for taking such amazing care of him. It was the best feeling being away from him and knowing he was in such capable and kind hands. We could not recommend Debby enough!! Thank you, thank you thank you!

We like this place…read more We've been clients for almost two decades, starting with our first-born, J, a shiba inu. We now come with our lab / German shepherd mix, A, who is something of a social butterfly. J was an introvert who liked socialization, but also needed his me time. He semi-enjoyed his days at Lucky Dog while we skied, but didn't love it. Our little girl, A, on the other hand, seems to really enjoy Lucky Dog and eagerly goes in, in the mornings. There is some beautiful mayhem going on. I love how much freedom visiting dogs have to interact and socialize. They have a reasonably large outdoor area for those who wish to go out. At one recent pickup, I saw that two little ones with thin fur, who seemed to prefer to be indoors, were allowed to stay in, while rambunctious, larger pups (with more winter fur) charged outside. It's great that care is personalized, that the pups can choose for themselves. By the way, pickups are fun and crazy. Give Laure and Duke a heads up that you're coming by if you have an internet / phone signal. Otherwise, you might find yourself walking into a 15 dog party where ALL of them think you're the most interesting human ever and jump all over you at the same time. I sort of love it! But you have a better chance of getting the news of the day from Duke and Laure when it's less chaotic. p.s. I'm just now reading the prior review about a lost/escaped dog. Our pups weren't / aren't big escape artists, I guess. They've always been able to free range in our private woods and unfenced yard in CT. But when he wished to do so, J was insanely smart and could open gates / doors or dig under fences. A can jump improbably high fences. (She tends to draw a rapt audience in Central Park whenever she exhibits this skill.) Either Lucky Dog's enclosures are now (circa 2024) effective or our pups chose / choose to be there. Either way, it works for us.
