Meet Camp Director Caitlin

Caitlin Stedman, owner and camp counselor at Adirondack Sniffari lives in Queensbury, New York with her dog Vinny (that’s him in the logo). Vinny is a nine-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound mix who she loves more than anything!

​

She runs camp with Counselor Tom.

​

Caitlin and Tom's Camp structure:

• Camp runs Monday-Thursday.

• Dogs can attend 1 day a week up to 4 days a week.

• Camp lasts around 2 hours (not including pick up and drop off)

• Camp is run on private land (occasionally public land to brush up skills)

• We also utilize our large private fenced in space called The Serengeti

• Campers ride along together on the Sniffari Rover bus so being able to be in close quarters with other dogs is essential to their success at camp.

​

Pick up/Drop off zones:​

• Queensbury 

• Glens Falls

• Hudson Falls

• Fort Edward

• South Glens Falls (location dependent)

• Fort Ann (location dependent)

​

Caitlin and Tom are extremely patient and takes time to get to know each dog on their level while meeting them where they are. Safety and having fun are always top of their mind. They believe that there is a way to connect with any dog and that they all deserve a structured environment to adventure, learn and follow their natural instincts.

​

Caitlin also offers drop-in pet sitting starting at $25 per visit.
