We LOVE Puddleby's! They're super with the animals (we've boarded cats x6 weeks and dogs frequently); Mr. P (as the dogs call him) is just wonderful and the prices so reasonable. We feel very lucky to be able to leave our much-loved pets with these fantastic people! Mary Jude and Mark Hanks

My dogs have been boarded there for years. The staff is great and Tom is wonderful. They give great care to our babies.

This was my first time leaving my boys at Puddlebys but it won't be the last. I had a bad experience recently at another kennel so I was super excited to pick my boys up after they had been given baths and brushed. They came home and fell fast asleep for the rest of the day which to me means they had a lot of exercise and fun. The cost of boarding was even cheaper than others I've used and the grounds are beautiful. Very happy returning customer here.

5 years ago we used them and my dog came home with kennel cough. Because of the great reviews my wife used them again for two dogs and a 10 day stay. 10:25 2024 both dogs are at the vets… both have kennel cough. Both dogs stunk, were dirty, and one had fecal matter in his fur.There were puncture wounds in his stomach as if in a fight His skin is blood red and raw. All of his hair is falling out. It’s like they were caged in filth. Something caused him to have so much anxiety he licked the skin off his private parts and has a major infection according to the Milton vet. They are concerned!! If you love your dog never ever ever use this place. 3/5/2024Mac is finally getting better. We almost lost him FOR The Love of God Don’t ever use this place if you love your dog

We love Puddleby!! The owners are extremely nice, you can’t beat the pricing, and my dog loves it here. The place is gorgeous, lots of land for the dogs to run around.

We really can't say enough about this place. We've encouraged all our friends and family with dogs to check it out because it's something else. You really have to see to believe. And the value?!?! I just can't. We are very comfortable boarding our fur child here and recommend this business to anyone who loves thier dog.

Very nice man runs this boarding facility. He takes great care of these animals. Highly recommend if u need a boarding facility in Maine. Bring cash or check though. He doesn't have today's technology but he is super sweet and friendly

We love Puddleby! We've been bringing our dogs there for 20 years now. We moved from the area and while there are several facilities in our area, we still take the drive to kennel them there. The facility is top notch and the staff are so caring. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

I'd stay in their kennels it's so nice. These folks really thought out their place when they built it. Your dog is treated like royalty with regular schedule, beautiful kennels that have tile floors and wooden doors. Not your normal kennel that reminds you of a shelter. And the views, don't even get me started, my dogs are enjoying their time and scenery. Lastly, these folks are extremely reasonable with their prices. Bring your dog food and records, you won't regret it. We will go out of our way in opposite direction just to know our dogs are enjoying their time while we are away.

This is a wonderful place to board your four legged babies. When I moved to NH in 2004, I asked everyone I worked with where they boarded their pet. It was unanimous for Puddleby's

Friendly staff, adfordable, nice area but idk why smell a little bit inside the office. Not sure from the dogs or just an old place. Looks little antique the inside office but nice the outside.

Went on a 10 day vacation and boarded my 2 dogs and 4 cats. I had never left the dogs alone before and the cats hated their previous place. The place is as immaculate as a kennel can be. The owner, Tom, was a delight, and the staff awesome! When we picked the animals up, the dogs were so excited but one of them wanted to stay! They all looked well cared for and i have no doubts they were taken care of. The kennels are unique, the place was amazing. I will continue with this kennel as long as they are in business!

First time for our 2 dogs. The sleeping areas are very nice and not crates or cages. Very homey feel there and the staff could not be nicer. We will be returning !!

Excellent place to keep your pet. The staff is excellent and are pet loves going there. We have had a tour and liked the entire place with pet runs for the various size pets. Used them for 8 years and never any complaint or problems and I always see the same people taking their pets there which says it all.

My family has taken our dogs here for many years. The staff have always been wonderful and kind. And, the pet quarters are very cozy and clean. ItsI a beautiful place 😊

This place is hands-down the best "doggie hotel."It's literally like boarding your dog in a home rather than a kennel. Beautiful runs, warm indoor enclosures that look more like horse stalls than doggie pens (wood rather than cement and chain link), and staffed by dog lovers.My dog is also high-maintenance (separation anxiety), so I'm REALLY glad I found Puddleby, because she loves it there!

This place is beautiful, and the staff are very personable. We took our dog here recently while we were off on a weeklong trip, and we had no concerns at all. We will definitely use again!
