We have created the following policies to provide clarity and to help ensure the safety and comfort of all of our human and canine guests. Thank you so much for your understanding! In addition to the links below, if you are a first time visitor to our special inn, please also take a moment to review our complete "summary of services." Dog Guests:
Upon making your reservation you will receive a link to our "Dog Profile Form." This is an informative, FUN questionaire designed to ensure the safety and welfare of your dog during your stay at The Paw House. As a general rule, dogs must be friendly towards people and other dogs. For the safety of all dog guests, we require notification from your
vet stating that your dog is current on their vaccinations or titers
for DHLLP (a.k.a DHL2P or 5 in 1), bordatella and rabies. You can send
the note via regular mail, e-mail, or you can bring it with you and
provide it to us upon checking in.
Dogs in
the House: We go to great lenghts to provide for the safety and comfort of all guests, our staff and most importangly your dog. Because of this we require that you do not leave your dog unattended (alone) in your bedroom. Our doggie care facility is available 24/7 to accommodate your dogs while you are exploring Vermont without them. If you have the need to leave your dog in your bedroom, locked up, alone, hen we ask that you not visit us. Thank you so much for your understanding as this has been a source of frustration for us and for other guests who understand and appreciate our attempt to provide your dog with a most comfortable vacation experience. Also, if you are a first time visitor, we also suggest that you check out a comprehensive page that highlights our services. Summary of services for first time guests. This is a helpful page that goes into great detail about our policies that we have developed since 2001. We have hundreds of acres to walk off-leash, and also have an off-leash dog park.
To prevent injuries to both humans and guests, we ask that all dogs be leashed
in the house. Human guests must take all measures to prevent their dogs from loud, and/or frequent,
and/or habitual barking, howling, crying, or yelping. Human guests should also
refrain from loud, and/or frequent, and/or habitual barking, howling, crying,
or yelping.
Accidents and Dog Waste:
We take great pride in the beauty of our inn and in our grounds and appreciate all of the positive feedback that we have received from our guests over the years regarding our "overboard" focus on cleanliness. It is our goal to ensure that dog waste and accidents do not have any type of
negative impact on the environment.
On the grounds of the property we have placed clearly marked green receptacles
for dog waste. ALL dog owners and Inn employees and/or managers will be responsible
for depositing dog waste into these receptacles. Unfortunately if someone fails
to pick up after their dog on The Paw House property, they will be asked to leave
with no refund. Please do not place dog waste into the trash, toilet, or any
other area other than designated receptacles.
We understand that accidents happen. If your dog should have an accident in the room or house, PLEASE clean it and notify a member of The Paw House staff as soon as possible. Cleaning supplies can be found under each bathroom sink. Age: We regret that due to insurance restrictions we can only accommodate children under the age of 10 under certain circumstances. If you plan on visiting us with a child under the age of 10, we ask that you call or e-mail and we will do our best to try to work something out. Smoking: The Paw House is a non-smoking establishment. Reservations: Reservations can be made online or by calling us toll free at 866-PAW-HOUSE (866-729-4687). We will confirm your reservation by e-mail which will also contain a link to our "The Paw House Dog Guest Profile Form."
