Pet care experience
Life-long dog person. Worked at kennel during college. Licensed wildlife rehabilitator. Volunteered for various dog rescue groups. Has adopted mistreated dogs that need special loving care. I know what it's like to be the crazy dog lady worrying about a special dog with separation anxiety. I can give you as many updates as you like, including pictures. I believe in keeping dogs calm, tired out and spoiled. We have a fence yard for off-leash play and walk a short distance on leash to wooded paths. You'll let me know whether your dog is used to walking on a leash or just running around in the backyard. In hot weather, dogs can wade in water at local park. We have dog beds and a crate, but dogs are welcome to sleep wherever they like. (Ours prefer human beds.) Am totally in love with beagles and all hounds. Baying is fine. Have had shepherd mixes, a cairn terrier, labs and have lots of experience with Catahoula leopard dogs (my last dog was obsessed with them). Dogs have lots of toys and playtime. Will share house with our two dogs, a kid and potentially a foster dog (beagle or basset). Dogs must be housetrained and get along with other dogs and kids. They should be either okay being free-range when I step out or able to get in the crate. Special diets and medicines are no problem. Your dog will be offered many treats and cuddles.
Reviews
She is great. My dogs spent a great time at her house, she sent pictures and updates, and they seemed to like staying with her. Recommended!
Great stay for my 9 year old goldendoodle. Carol and her family are knowledgeable and responsible and kind. I think he is sad to be home!!
Ginny had a wonderful stay with Carol! We would not hesitate to recommend her and we will definitely be reaching out again for doggy daycare in the future.
Carol took Portia and Ariel in as if they were her own pups. Their happy faces tell the story of their being well cared for and really loved. Thank you Carol!!

Information Carol V. would like to know about your pet
How does the dog react to children, other dogs, wildlife? Has the dog ever stayed away before? Is the dog an escape risk? Is the dog house-trained? Can the dog be left free range in the house or is the dog used to being crated?
A typical day
We go for walks down the street to a park that has a stream and meets up with Rockefeller State Park. Dogs can wade in creek and run (on leash). We have a fenced backyard where dogs can play with balls or watch squirrels. Dogs usually end up cuddling together on sofa. We have a chair stationed by the window for dogs that like to look out.
