Dog Boarding in Kittery

“We felt relieved knowing our doodles were with Collette. We originally brought them on our camping trip to see our niece graduate, but underestimated just how much we’d have to leave them alone in the camper - no bueno! The doodles were happy and healthy when we picked them up.”

About: I've had large dogs my entire life, including a special needs dog and police-trained K9 dogs. I have owned and operated a farm hotel in Brazil for the past 5 years, where I was the primary responsible for all daily care, injections, medical treatments and behavioral work with the animals (5 large dogs and multiple farm animals), so am very comfortable administering any special care your animal may need. I have also rescued & fostered nearly a dozen dogs from the street and helped them find forever homes. I love all animals and understand each one is different with unique personalities. The pics on my profile are from my farm. I work from home which allows me to always be present to keep your pet company, and love taking small cuddle, walk and play breaks throughout the day to break up my desk routine. Having extra dogs is the perfect excuse to stretch my legs! I live alone in a spacious apartment downtown Portsmouth where I can board up to 2 large dogs or 3 small dogs at a time. I am only a 5min walk from the Mill Pond dog park and can take your dog for several walks throughout the day. I can also crate your dog if they prefer it. I can administer medication and provide any special treatment necessary. I treat all pets as my own, like members of my family.

“Veska and her husband took great care of George! She sent lots of updates with pictures on how George was doing and was very accommodating with my late request when my other dog sitter had to cancel due to sickness. George loved staying with them!”

“This was my first time leaving my dog, so I was nervous... well, Gussy had herself a nice little doggy vacay: she ran around with Jeanne's neighbor's dogs on her secure, expansive property, then cooled off in a little doggy pool- a dog's paradise. Jeanne was very attentive and texted me at various times during the day. Next time, I will book Jeanne for a longer stay!”

“We absolutely love having Diamond and her sweet girls care for our pups. They are both so lovingly cared for the entire time. We receive multiple photos and check ins. She’s just the best!”

“Mack and Dennis had their very first Rover sleep-away with James, and they were welcomed with open arms by his whole family. Everyone was so sweet and hospitable, and his little girl gave them plenty of cuddles, which they absolutely loved. James was incredibly easy to work with. He was responsive, flexible, and genuinely accommodating. I felt completely at ease knowing my boys were in such a warm, caring home. I would absolutely recommend James to anyone looking for a trustworthy, family-oriented sitter. We will happily book with him again.”

“Shana was truly an exceptional sitter and we feel so lucky to have found her. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how thoughtful and prepared she was — she even had a clipboard with notes ready, which immediately made us feel comfortable and confident leaving our dog in her care. Throughout the stay she sent so many photos and detailed updates, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing exactly how things were going and seeing how happy our dog was. Our pup ended up having a bit of a GI issue while we were away, and Shana handled it with such calm confidence and care. She clearly knows dogs incredibly well and was so composed and knowledgeable in every situation. She even cooked rice and chicken for her to help settle her stomach and kept us updated on how she was doing, which meant so much to us. Shana, her husband Dylan, and their dog Cleo created such a warm, loving environment. It genuinely felt like our dog was being cared for by people who truly understand and love dogs. We are so grateful for the care she gave our pup and would trust Shana with her again in a heartbeat.”

About: I'm an animal lover and have grown up with all types of animals. I have been trusted taking care of neighbors, friends, and families pets for many years. My sister is a veterinarian so I often get the pet questions. I will go above and beyond for your pet. I work from home Monday and Tuesday so I am free to go for walks and drop by your house most of the time these days. I am in the office Wednesday through Friday and will have less time but still available. Weekends are free unless I'm away. I live on an acre of land. It is not a fully fenced yard but it is set back in a small, quiet neighborhood on a dead end road. I have an indoor cat.

“Colleen was amazing - truly spot on with her passion for care and love of your pet - my Bleu was very content and happy to socialize with others and I felt very grateful and blessed. Colleen is top notch 🐾🥰”

Denise S.

“Monty's stay with Felicia was great! She provided us with lots of updates along the way, and we felt like he was in very safe hands. Our puppy came home happy and relaxed, and it was adorable at pickup seeing how much Felicia and her kids enjoyed having him there ❤️”

May R.

“My dog was in the best care with Katelyn. He was pampered and treated just like part of her family. Not only did he have the freedom to run in their large fenced in yard, he was allowed to swim in the pool. I was very appreciative of the videos and photos throughout his stay which clearly showed he had a wonderful time. I will be a repeat customer in the future.”

Lauren O.

“Our pup had a great stay with Courtney while we were away. She gave updates and sent pics which we loved. I highly recommend her for pet sitting.”
