We are Lynn and Jim and have been dog walkers/pet sitters for 20 years. We love what we do! We're proud to offer your dog the kind of care you would give them and no less here in the Ludlow VT area. If you are planning a full day on the slopes of Okemo Mountain or a neighboring mountain or are simply going to be away for the day we can come to your home and get your dog out for a walk or some play.
If your dog appreciates exercise, we would be happy to take him/her/them on a 1 or even 2 hour hike on one of the local trails of which there are many to choose from. Your dog is also welcome to come to our house for the day and enjoy our fenced in back yard! If you are going to be away multiple days we can offer to stay on "overnights" with your dog while you're away (usually Lynn) at your house or in ours.
We find pets enjoy being in their own homes while their owners are away. Also, having us stay in your home with your pet assures you that your home is taken care of as well. If your pets are okay at home by themselves, we are available to make daily visits (1-4 per day) to feed them, give them fresh water and make sure they have enough outside time for exercise and to take care of business.

If you have children, he should be below them on a pack level.
The owner or primary caretaker of the dog should be the "alpha" the dog should respect this leader.
