Pet boarding/training near Montpelier

“We had another great experience at our recent visit, even though our 5-year-old rescue was very timid and nervous. Dr. Scott was incredibly patient, gentle, and kind throughout the entire appointment. He took the time to let our dog warm up at his own pace and never made us feel rushed.

It means so much to have a veterinarian who truly understands anxious rescue dogs and treats them with compassion and respect. The staff was welcoming, and the overall environment felt calm and supportive.

We’re so grateful for the care and empathy shown to our pup, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this practice, especially to anyone with a shy or fearful pet.“

“We took our very strong 65-70lb German Shepherd mix in for a 2 week boot camp back in May. He was just over a year and our previous trainer was ineffective and we were desperate to get him better on the leash and overall manners. After just a few days I took him to the vet where he normally showed high anxiety. He was obedient and calm lying next to me the entire time while I employed what I learned. It was night and day in comparison. Rocky is a challenge but our trainer Julianne did not falter. Her tenacity and dedication to her mission could not be denied and at the end of the two weeks, Rocky was a new dog. Julianne went above and beyond and took the time to cover everything we needed to learn so we could continue training Rocky with the knowledge she instilled in us. She loves what she does and it shows. I don’t know what I would have done if she wasn’t able to effectively train our dog like the previous one we hired. Rocky loves the daycare at both Pawciendas and comes home tired and happy. Would highly recommend and worth the investment!“
