Pet Boarding Training near Eliot

“K9 Lane is our dog's second home. She has been going there for 8 years. It is family run and the dogs know that Melissa is alpha. She has a calm and confident presence with them and she makes the indoor space comfortable and safe for the dogs, just as much as the outdoor area. Now that our dog is more of a senior camp member, she gets to hang on some dog beds when she needs to, and plays outside with her friends too. I don't have to worry about our dog when we board her there either, I know she is taken care of like a member of the family.“

“Dianne has years of experience and is an excellent trainer of dogs and their handlers.“

“Peace of mind!I always go to Google Reviews for a business I’m unsure of and try to sort through which reviews seem genuine. Look no further, I’m a paranoid pet dad who was very nervous about giving my animal to a board service/trainer. The risk was worth the reward.I did a lot of research for my dog before I had a trip and I was very unsettled about leaving him with someone I didn’t know. He’s a rescue from another country and had very inhumane living conditions before I got him (let’s just say he was on a menu somewhere). Plus he’s only 20 lbs and pretty defensive at times. I was worried he would have a bad experience with a dog and get hurt or wouldn't be properly supervised around other animals.K9 to 5 seemed to have good reviews. A few outliers like any company, but if you look at their history Jacqui has gone out of her way to make her company the best that it can be from the motivation of actually caring. I locked in a reservation after having the best feeling about her.Dropping him off for a “meet and greet day” before committing to my reservation was a little nerve wracking. Honestly I had a little of a hard time finding the place so do your research on Google maps before you go (yes, its behind the June Cork Pub, just stay left upon entering and it will take you down to the entrance). Upon entering, I noticed the place was definitely a dog heaven. It has all fancy training equipment and had an enthusiastic staff ready to meet him. Sure, the place definitely had a dog smell to it lol but… it’s a dog place. That’s what they do. Seemed very clean despite this. I left my little dude there for about 8 hours and when I picked him up he was happy as a clam.When the time to go for my actual trip, Jacqui accommodated my weird drop off hours needed and took him personally. I was given information on how to log onto cameras to watch him while I was gone. Then as time passed, I started getting videos of what he was being trained on and he looked so happy!When I finally picked him up, he was happy to see me but almost seemed like he was sad to leave. He was definitely properly socialized and had made a few friends. It was pretty warming.In the end I ended up with a lot of videos (see attached snippet) on what my dog had learned from training which left me at a great place to continue building good habits with him. Jacqui had a lot of great tricks and tips and even provided solid documents to continue this journey with my dog. It’s going to be my go to place if I ever go out of town and want peace of mind. I think you will have the same experience as me if you go with this company. Thanks K9 to 5!“

“Been using Bittersweet for 21 years. Our 3 dogs are always happy to go for grooming, play time and occasional boarding. Great service and value.“

“I have been taking my cat Alex to this vet clinic for six years and have had nothing but good, thorough compassionate care for my cat. The staff there have been friendly and supportive, from the front end all the way back. We have been mostly seeing Dr. Davis. She’s an excellent communicator, a warm care provider and I would highly recommend anyone taking their cat to be under her care. Today I had to put Alex down. I worked for three years as a hospice nurse. I have experience with compassionate care for the patient and the caregivers. Today, Dr. Davis and her staff gave us both the best care.“
