Hearth & Hound Dog Day-Care Opens in Lee

By Breanna SteeleiBerkshires Staff

Hearth and Hound also offers cat boarding with four indoor catios. 
LEE, Mass. — Alexis Montgomery was disappointed on returning to the Berkshires to find the dog day-care she'd used was closing. 
 
So she started her own.
 
Hearth and Hound opened at 915 Pleasant St., which used to house Love Us and Leave Us.
 
"My dog was a customer here and so I always thought about like what would it be like to work with animals, too," Montgomery said. "So I saw a Facebook post from the owner of Love Us and Leave Us saying that she was going to be selling the building and I called up Adams Bank."
 
She decided to take the jump to start her own pet day care, closing on the building on Feb. 13.
 
Montgomery said she has always had a love for animals and grew up volunteering at the local humane society and worked at a pet store after high school.
 
"When I was a little girl I always wanted to be a veterinarian. And I've always been obsessed with animals," she said. "I used to carry around books of different dog breeds and I would memorize them and just like tell people about dogs all the time."
