Let us spoil your pooch!
Lynn and Jim were absolutely incredible!!! If you get the chance to have them stay with your fur-babies, jump at the opportunity! They were excellent at communicating right from the start and sent such wonderful pictures & updates throughout their entire stay. They cared for our two pups so well, giving them all the love, attention and exercise they could ask for :) I love that they included them on their dog-friendly adventures, and know that our pups were having just as much fun (if not more 😁) with them as we were on our trip. Our home was spotless when we arrived back. They took excellent care of everything 😊 We are so grateful for Lynn and Jim, and would love to have them here again if they're ever back in WI. Thank you again, Lynn and Jim!!!

I WILL CARE FOR YOUR PET AS IF THEY WERE MY OWN!
Another great sit with Linda. She even helped us with training Hazel to ignore the dogs next door. Highly recommend Linda—she is great with both the dog and chickens, left the house beautiful, and was perfectly communicative. Hazel adores her!

I had no reliable internet connection or cell service to communicate while away but Kimberly held it down. Thank you, Kimberly!
Julianna
Ripton, Vermont
Kind, professional, and clean sitter excited to care for your pets and home
I was so happy that I found Julianna to dog sit for me. I would 100% recommend her to everyone. She is everything you could ask for in a dog sitter. She asked the right questions so that she could be prepared and overall put me at ease throughout my vacation. She is also very pleasant and easy to talk to! She is clearly experienced with dogs. My dog took a liking to her the moment she walked in. She fed him on time, spent ample time with him (he is a small, needy yorkiepoo), and even took him to the office. She sent us daily updates on the situation at home and it was clear from the pictures that my dog was having a good time. She was quick to respond when I contacted her while I was on vacation. She even cleaned the apartment before she left. My dog was happy and healthy when I got back. I would definitely use her again!
Nirav
Ripton, Vermont
Professional couple taking care of your home & pets as you do.
This was the second time Audrey (and her husband Kurt as well, this time) stayed with Millie, and it was so seamless, with frequent brief notes and photos reminding me of how lucky Millie was to get such attention. My plants were well-tended to and the house was left spotless. If Audrey and her husband Kurt apply to housesit for you, you should grab that chance - they are so wonderfully caring and responsible.

Jennifer and her daughter were superb house and pet sitters! We couldn't have asked for better. They took great care of the cats and the house - something even came up with the washing machine and she was able to fix it. We got lots of photo updates, and the cats seemed happy when we got home. Last but not least, they left our house in top-notch condition...probably even cleaner than we left it! I highly recommend Jennifer.
Jane
Ripton, Vermont
Active, retired PAs would love to care for your pets and home while you are away
Jane and Ed were fantastic pet & house sitters. I couldn't have been more pleased! I got regular updates and photos on all the pets, etc. My cat needed daily meds which they had no problem doing. And my highly energetic large lab was well exercised and happy. I highly recommend them. I hope to have them back another time!!
Dan
Ripton, Vermont
Responsible, trustworthy animal lovers.
Dan and his partner Martha were great dog sitters for my pup Rooney. They came with their super sweet pup Keepher, who quickly became best buds with Rooney. They were flexible coming and going which was super helpful with travel delays. They were communicative while I was away and left the place clean and tidy. After spending a few hrs with them in the beginning, I felt super comfortable leaving, knowing they could handle anything and were responsible pet owners themselves. This piece in particular was super helpful for me. I knew they would care for my dog as well or better since they had their dog with them... I would totally recommend them (including Keepher) to sit for anyone !
Alan
Ripton, Vermont
Writing about my house-sitting days!
Alan was such a great sitter for our dog Tush! He was very communicative and easy to work with before his stay and during! Very cool and easygoing but attentive person! We would definitely Alan back to sit for Tush anytime without hesitation.
Wesley
Ripton, Vermont
Responsible, young professional.
Wesley was our very first exposure to zeewoi and he certainly did not disappoint! What a great experience. We felt safe being gone for almost 20 days while our Leo was in excellent hands. Wesley was excellent at communicating, sending photos of Leo and even describing some of their activities, which made our vacation that much better. He also shared with us that he was enjoying the town and our restaurants which made us happy to know he was doing well himself. Wesley, not only kept Leo happy and well exercised (our mail man said they walked as much as he does every day!) but he also kept our plants alive and kept the house spotless. He even went as far as washing his linens and remaking his room! Definitely a star pet sitter, and I certainly hope he will consider staying with Leo again.

Kathleen was a fantastic sitter and Olive and Noodle miss her already. She was great about sending pictures and updates - never had to ask anything, she always beat us to it. She didn't assume anything that wasn't clearly stated - always asked us beforehand. She was great with our dogs - they immediately bonded with her and didn't want to leave her side. We really appreciated being able to go away and not worry about our pets' welfare, we knew immediately they were being so well taken care of. We hope to host Kathleen again soon!!
Christina
Maryna was an excellent pet sitter and houseguest! Communicating with her was easy, and she always responded to my messages quickly. She was also incredibly self-sufficient! Moreover, Maryna graciously agreed to check on my neighbor's cat for a couple of days as well. My dog bonded with her quickly and was happy and healthy when I returned. The house was also spotless. I would happily have Maryna sit for me again!
Lainie
Brian is absolutely amazing. This was his third time sitting for us and the dogs love him, he left the house immaculate, and is totally reliable and communicative. We can’t imagine a better sitter and hope he’ll come visit and stay in touch now that he has moved to the area.
Kara
Denise was by far the best pet sitter we have ever had! She watched our two pups while we were gone for 3 weeks and took amazing care of our dogs and home. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood each dog’s needs as well as how to take the best care of our house before we left. She sent videos everyday updating us on how the pups were doing. We were so happy to see how much quality time she was spending with them and how much they loved her. Our dogs were so sad to see her leave and we can’t wait to have her back. Denise made sure that the house was in perfect condition when she left and treated our home as if it were her own. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further. Highly recommend Denise!
Michelle
Brian was a wonderful sitter for our 11 year old dog and also took great care of our home. He sent me pictures every day and let me know how Macklin was doing which always helps ease my mind. Our home was clean and tidy when we returned and everything in its place. I'd recommend Brian to anyone looking for excellent care by a friendly person!
DAVID
This is our second time with Jamie and she’s really a great sitter for our dogs . She’s a trusted person, smart. You can leave her your house and pets. Can’t wait to have Jaimie back next summer
Leslie
I’m sure most folks say the nicest things about their sitter, but honestly, if there were a “super star” status available then Denise would win the prize as sitter of the year! From the start, Denise was an excellent communicator. While we were still in the decision phase, Denise was always available to chat either by FaceTime, telephone or text. It was so easy to choose Denise; as you can see from her countless 5 star reviews, she truly is the only pet sitter you’d ever need and the one everyone hopes to have. Denise came to our house eager to meet us, our pets and the quirks of our house. Denise has an excellent sense of humor and immediately put us all at ease. Our pets took to her as if she was a long lost friend (even our finicky Siamese cat was loving on her from the start). While we were gone, our dog had a non-emergency health issue come up and just like that Denise was taking her to our vet, and administered the dog’s meds like a champion (Denise is also a nurse BTW). Additionally, Denise brought our pup to her scheduled groom appointments and even made future appointments for us to make our return home as seamless as possible. Denise was even above and beyond helpful to our neighbors and they appreciated her giving them access to our refrigerator when theirs broke down on Thanksgiving Eve! When we got home we were super impressed by how perfectly immaculate our house was! Most sitters leave the house clean, but Denise met and may have even exceeded our military standards of clean and orderly. Seriously, our house felt like we never left it. Everything was spotless, shinny and clean. She didn’t miss a beat!! Our pets were so happy to see us but honestly, I felt like our pup and kitty were disappointed when we walked in the door (I believe they were expecting to see Denise!). Haha. If you are ever fortunate enough to have Denise apply for any of your sits then I can’t recommend her enough. Seriously, you can stop reviewing applicants and just go with Denise. She was awesome in every sense of the word and I hope she’ll come back and stay with our pets again.

Angela provided complicated medical care for my sick dog for three weeks in Mexico City with the utmost professionalism and kindness Right before Angela’s arrival, my dog was hospitalized and almost died. Angela took care of follow up vets visits, administered eight medicines a day for two weeks, and nursed tico completely back to health I could tell from the photos and videos that she was taking excellent care of him - he was too weak to walk so she made a comfy bed for him in a large bag and carried him a over the city so he could still have fun during his recovery I could not recommend Ángela more. She went so far above and beyond what a pet sitter should do, and she did it all with a caring and capable attitude
Mary
Joanna and David were absolutely perfect!!!! This was my first actual time using a sitter and they went above and beyond what I expected. I have a 1 year old Bully Breed that I adopted 6 weeks ago, so if you know dogs you know what they had to deal with :)) They sent pics daily and kept me updated. We were not able to meet before I left but they were nice enough to stay to meet me when I returned. My house was cleaner than when I left, all bedding and towels washed. Charley, my dog, was happy to see me for a minute when I got home but immediately went back to play with David, so I am thinking she had a blast while I was gone. I am totally sold with this process after having Joanna and David here. If you have the chance to book them for your trip, you will not be sorry. I am hoping to use them again when they return to Florida.

Ranji was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog Zoe and was very easy to communicate with and kept me informed. She took wonderful care of our condo and wouldn’t hesitate to have her in my new home in NJ if she wants to check out a new area.

Tara is amazing!! She takes great care of my two pups! I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!! I drop them off and leave stress free knowing they are perfectly cared for!! P.s. my dogs get excited when we turn onto her road! They know where they are going! 😁😁 …
I couldn't have found a better boarding place for my Jacky...last minute on my part could've been a big problem. Wedding at Mountain top...last minute boosters which I would've blown had I not been informed...thanks again for that. Jacky can be nippy , with strangers...assertive that he's actually the big dog in the room though only 15 lbs. When I returned to pick him up....he was playing with others and loving his caretaker. You be hard pressed to find better . Thanks again...Doggy daycare school comes to mind.
Tara has been taking care of my dogs when I go on vacation for several years. My dogs love it there.They start whining when I pull in her driveway and can’t wait to get out of the car! Tara is so good with them. She gives them lots of love and attention and makes sure their needs are more than met. They are often tired out when they get home! I highly recommend The Boarding Spot to anyone looking for dog boarding.
We feel so comfortable leaving our dog with Tara at the Boarding Spot! We enjoy seeing posts on facebook of him playing or relaxing with the other dogs, and Tara gives us updates as to how he's doing. He's an older dog, and it's very reassuring to us to know he's happy and well-cared for.
My pups stayed at the Boarding Spot a couple weeks ago. Tara did a pre stay meet & greet for us as 1 dog has Addison’s Disease. Tara put me st ease asking appropriate questions and both my dogs loved her. Tara sent me daily pics of them and an update. They looked very happy. They came home happy and tired. Would definitely contact for another stay! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've used other boarders in the past, but this place is by far the best with the unique home based care where she gets to play with other dogs. My dog is the white dog with beige stripes. She seems to be loving it there so much I don't even think she misses me. Also,the owner Tara will bend over backwards for you and,blind a Saint, actually picked up. my dog for me when I was unexpectedly hospitalized and couldn't drop my dog off for boarding. I don't think I'd ever board my dog anywhere else again.
The Boarding Spot took great care of my pup while I was out of town for a few days! It’s great to have a small place that really gets to know your dog. He came back happy and healthy, will definitely be booking with them again!
It is difficult to find a place to board Woody since he doesn't adjust to new situations; however, he feels right at home with Tara and The Boarding Spot. It is a great fit!
We just found The Boarding Spot as a convenient place to board our three dogs as we handled moving to the Rutland area, and Tara turned out to be quite the lucky find. She was great with our pups, and they have such a good time there. It's good to know we don't have to worry about what to do with them if/when we go out of town in the future.
Great place to board your pets. Tara genuinely cares about your animals and is passionate about her work. Provides an excellent environment . Treats your pet as if it was her own making it a wonderful experience for them and their owner.
