Top rated Rumford dog boarders
“I can’t say enough great things about Doris and the wonderful care she provided for our dog, Giorgie, while we were away for over a week. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease by sharing frequent updates and lots of adorable pictures, which really reassured us that Giorgie was happy and in good hands. Doris clearly loves and understands dogs, and we could tell she went above and beyond to make sure Giorgie felt at home. We returned to a very happy and well-cared-for pup, and we’re so grateful for the excellent care she provided. Highly recommend Doris to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog boarder!”
“This was my first time being away from Stevie for longer than 8 hours and I was very anxious about it. Zachary sent me photo updates everyday and it was very helpful with easing my anxiety!!! Stevie had a great time and I would 100% recommend Zachary for all your doggy boarding needs!!!”
“There’s a reason Joseph is one of the top rated (if not the top rated) sitters in the area. Every part of booking to picking up was so easy and he was very communicative through the process. As a dog mom, I can be very particular about who watches my baby, but there was never a point at which I felt uneasy about leaving her with Joseph. Highly recommend. Will book again!”
