So many of us North Country lovers also happen to be parents to furry, four legged friends.

If your dog is like ours, they love the ‘Dacks — from romping on frozen lakes in the winter — to taking walks on our many trials. (All while adhering to leash laws).

But what do you do if you need to accommodate your cat or dog if you are off on vacation? Well a local entrepreneur has the answer. Meet Hali Holmes, wife of Sticks and Stones co-founder Steve. From Hali:

I’m so excited to be starting my own dog walking and pet sitting business. Whether you're looking for someone to take your pup hiking on a local trail or walks around the neighborhood, drop by while you’re at work for a game of fetch and a belly rub, or provide complete care for your cats and dogs while you're away, please contact me to let me know how I can best meet your needs. I look forward to meeting you and your best friends!
