Dog Boarding in East Maine

This was our first time leaving our puppy Scout in anyone else's hands, so of course, that comes with some anxiety and worry. We were very glad to have the opportunity for a meet and greet prior to Scout's stay. While it was only a 2 day stay, Steve did a great job of communicating and responding when we checked in. He also sent several photos of Scout playing in the yard with his new 'friends' which was very reassuring for us to see! Scout came home very tired out from all of his playtime outside. We will definitely keep Steve in mind to use for boarding in the future!

Carolina and her family are very nice! Carolina made sure to message me everyday on how my dogs were doing, with pictures!

Mary is wonderful! She took our dog Harry at the last minute for a 24-hour period -- we're from out-of-town and our hotel didn't allow pets -- and he was in dog heaven! Her dogs and her other "dog guests" were friendly and welcoming. She sent pictures and videos of him having a ball, then later sleeping soundly. She brushed him and took such good care of him he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up. We highly recommend her and would definitely take him back if we return to the area.

Charlene and her husband were amazing. I got a series of pictures and she was great at communicating. It put my heart at ease knowing our furry kiddo was in great hands. They treated her like part of their family.

Alex watched my two dogs for 5 days while I was away on a trip and was excellent! Very communicative and accommodating for drop off and pick-up, making things very easy. He sent tons of pictures and updates on how they were doing and all the fun they were having. They had a great time running, playing, and wading in the pond. Would absolutely recommend Alex for any boarding needs!! He was exceptional.

Bee was great! She was loving and kept me updated with my pup the entire time. She sent lots of pictures and my pup came home super happy. Thank you!

Dana is wonderful with my dog, he’s an energetic lab and he had a great weekend stay with Dana. It’s such a relief to know he’s in good hands when he is not with us. Thank you Dana!

Kathryn and Jared are great. Our pittie enjoys going to their house. This is the second time we have used them for a multi night stay. They take great care of our loved one and go beyond expectations. I highly recommend them to take care of your loved one.

Caterina is so warm and hospitable. You can tell she loves taking care of our pups! She is very organized and specific so that things run smoothly and the dogs don’t get stressed. They have full run of a part of the house and get lots of opportunities to play together outside or take a walk, she says. The “meet and greet”was new to me, but I see the value. Caterina tuned into Bogie from the start. TIP: It would be helpful if ROVER and/or the pet sitter specified the TIME WINDOWS for dropping off and picking up. Also is the “daily” charge for EACH NIGHT or for EACH 24-HR period? ALSO when a person requests “3 nights” (or days), it is the practice of hotels is to CHECK OUT on the FOURTH ONE BY A CERTAIN TIME. ROVER really caused me angst when they messed up my request for THREE NIGHTS and Kyle scheduled pickup BEFORE the third night. The SITE IS VERY “UNFRIENDLY” about modifying a booking. I was desperately trying to figure it out for over an hour and then I texted Caterina and she said I could have just contacted HER! What a waste of my time and a lot of frustration. ROVER NEEDS TO FIX ALL THIS. I can’t recommend it the way it is now. I was beside myself two days before my vacation trying to get things corrected. Pickup and Drop off times were never specified. People picking me up for the trip had to change their time. It would have been helpful if I knew what kind of window I had w/ pet sitter. HAD TO DRIVE an EXTRA 80 mins that morning, then jump in car and go the 6 hrs north right by her place. Found out (after the fact) as early as 4am was good. WISH I HAD KNOWN!! Not sure where it is written… I wish it was specified somewhere; it would eliminate much unnecessary back and forth texting to get the logistics down.

We felt so comfortable leaving Fifi with Michelle and her family. We loved the pictures! We will use again when needed. 😊

Great place for my two dogs. They loved her place with big fenced yard and daily regular outing Luann is great while taking care of dogs. Great day care.

Landry was flexible and easy to work with. We did find communication during the time we were gone to be limited - Landry had mentioned that she would send lots of photos but we did not get any and had to initiate any updates we got from her. This wasn't a deal breaker but left us uneasy as it was not the expectation she promoted. Our dogs got along well and we appreciated the fenced in yard!

Mario and Max loves Destiny. They don’t come back stressed like they did when boarded at Kennels. Plus they come home with a bag of fancy little home made treats.

Our dog seemed happy as can be playing with the little kids and running around the dog park. We got plenty of pictures while we were away. Our dog needs to nap after all of that excitement.
