Dog Sitters in South Portland, ME

Our tripod Hades loves Tiny Tails! We were a little nervous introducing him into a new daycare setting: with 3 legs, he can sometimes get bullied by other pups, and he can become tired a bit more easily than his 4-legged friends. The Tiny Tails team have all been great: they clearly love what they do, maintain a high level of care and supervision, and always provide me with detailed updates on how the day went. I trust and recommend Tiny Tails for doggie day care.

I could not be more thrilled with the care and the attention that my guy gets at Tiny Tails. He RUNS in and hates to leave in the late afternoons when I pick him up. The staff is so caring and so loving, and they alert me to things about my pup's health when needed (e.g., a follow-up email to let me know that he was chewing his feet and seemed to be very itchy). I would recommend Tiny Tails to anyone who loves and cares about their four-legged family member and wants him or her to have a great day and great care!

Ms. Daisy loves going to Tiny Tails to play with her friends all day almost as much as she likes going to camp and boating. She loves the staff and we have purchased and donated to their little 2nd hand thrift store.

My puppy, Betty, can’t wait to get out of the car when we pull up in the parking lot! When I pick her up after work she’s always exhausted and I get filled in by the staff what Betty did that day. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. Autumn especially goes above and beyond for my pup by taking the time to get to know her and catering to her quirks at lunch time.

This place is great. They take really good care of your dog and it's in a convenient location for my wife and me. They report your dogs day like who she played with, how long they played, or if they took a nap. I'm sure they would be the right place for your pet too.

Incredibly friendly staff! My boy is so excited to play everytime he walks through the doors. I feel as though he is safe and well looked after when I'm at work; thank you Tiny Tails!

I wouldnt trust this place or the owner as far as I could throw him.. If they really loved dogs, they wouldnt let employees ABDUCT them from people that need their dog watched for more than a few days. I 100% suggest you bring your dogs else where. Still trying to get our beloved dog back from an employee that took her home and then eventualy stopped all forms of contact..

Tiny Tails gives you food when you're broke. I haven't had a job in six months.

Prompt service, they tell me all about how my dog did that day, just really friendly. It's near the dog park, too, so it's really amazing

New Client. Long time Golden Owners. Love how clean the Portland facility was. Designed smartly for Pets to be coming and going without causing problems at the entrance. They put two entrances. Smart. Waiting areas , same thing. The team members where cleaning stalls and maintaining the property with pleasure. And the monitors on all the rooms in the reception area. Liked it. The App is rather friendly to use. Great. Cant find any reason why not to call this my 2 Dogs (Brady & Brandy) "Home away from Home"

Amazing place and an amazing staff. I was running late to pick up my dog. They were supposed to be closing at 6:30 but they stayed past then so I could pick up my dog.

The staff at Camp Bow Wow take such great care of Lava, and are always so excited to see her! Lava loves to play at Camp Bow Wow during the day or for sleepaway camp!

We highly recommend Camp Bow Wow Portland. Our Irish Setter girl loves to go there to board and for day care. The staff is friendly and caring.

We love the friendly staff and clean facility. They love dogs and it shows, our dog can’t wait to go to daycare. We’ve used the boarding facilities as well and could not ask for better service, highly recommend!

Our pup love Camp Bow Wow and so do we. Hami is always so excited to go in and play with his dog friends but really loves his staff friends the most. He goes weekly and we board him as well every now and then because he likes it so much and it can be more convenient than getting him to a relative and the peace of mind knowing he’s safe and not getting into anything is great. I’d highly recommend this facility over other nearby options, Hami used to go to the one very close by and are so happy we swapped to Bow Wow.

My pup Alex loves going to camp bow wow!! I like the add on services available and that i can check in on him with the dog cams. Staff is great amf do not hesitate to call if they feel your pup is not feeling well - piece of mind for me that he is having fun and well cared for while there

Everyone there is so lovely. Our Sadie is a bit of a handful but everyone is so nice about dealing with her. We really appreciate how patient they are with her craziness.

I brought my 6 month old english setter in for her first interview and I was thrilled to be able to check in on her throughout the day with their doggie cams. She seemed so happy and the staff were all super friendly. I can't wait to bring my little girl back to play again!

My puppy Papillon, Holly, absolutely loves attending camp during the work week. Every morning, we get up and sing our own "Camp Bow-Wow" song and her tail wags so uncontrollably that she wiggles all over with excitement! When dropping her off, she loves to greet the staff with morning barks and scratches at the door to get through to her friends! Everybody who works at CBW, Portland, know my dog's name and treat her with so much warmth and love! The staff are always smiling and keep me up-dated on Holly's doings when I pick her up. The facility is always clean, run very well and even provided Holly with a jacket when she got too cold. Camp Bow Wow is an awesome experience for any dog! Katie and Holly Clark

We have been using Peace of Mind Pals for I think over two years now! They are very reliable and dependable. It’s hard to find someone you trust with your fur babies and having them come to your home when you’re not there. Marie is always very responsive and helps us out when we are in a pinch! Very thankful!

We love using Peace of Mind for every vacation they have been awesome! They send email updates with photos and are so reliable and kind. You can tell they really love and care about the animals! She even reads books and listens to music with them. Highly recommend!!

We have been using Peace of Mind Pals for years and love their service. We get photos of our two cats everyday that they take care of them. They are very reliable and take care of our cats with tender loving care!

The people at Peace of Mind Pals are wonderful. We had them take care of our very sassy cat for a week and they followed the instructions to a tee as well as provided daily updates. Their pricing was extremely reasonable and I would recommend them to anyone who needs a pet sitter

I love Peace of Mind Pals. They give me exactly that...peace of mind! Sadie always sends me lovely pictures and check in’s about my kitty so I can go away knowing she is well cared for.

I really enjoyed this walking service but unfortunately had a walker who mistreated my dogs to the point that they became skittish and timid. When contacting the owner of the service she was very unprofessional and stopped responding. It’s very unfortunate. My animals are extremely important to me. I am lucky a neighbor reached out who witnessed the incident. I had some great walkers and one terrible one. Please beware and cautious.

Great group of people. They sent pictures of our puppy to us and gave us an update. Will definitely use them again.

I filled out the online form and the only response I got was that they don't service Windham. We don't live in Windham, we live in Falmouth. They say they service Falmouth. No response when I replied that we live in Falmouth, not Windham.

Amy gives great care to our kitty Maxine. We know we can count on her.. thank you!

They are just lovely. Being away I truly had peace of mind for my little ones. Thanks!

Happy Tails is a warm and friendly place and Rory just absolutely loves going there! They have helped him with his anxiety and often match him with specific dogs that he plays really well with!

We used Happy Tails for when we went cross country to California. May 30-June 12 it was under $800 and that included doggy daycare. Our dog was happy and healthy when we got back with no problems at all.

So thankful for happy tails! The staff is wonderful and have always been very accommodating to both of my dogs. One of my dogs requires a lot more patience and they have gone above and beyond for him. Plus, they always leave tired and happy! The “report cards” are super cute and fun too.

I have a VERY sensitive dog and this is the only daycare out of the 5 or 6 I have been to that he gets excited to go to in the morning. He is very happy to see each and every member of the staff. Begrudgingly, even the nice lady who does his nails. The owner has a strong presence at the business and he is very passionate about the care of your animals. Keep up the good work guys!

Happy Tails is the best doggy day care we’ve sent our dog to in all of New England!! The staff is friendly and know what they’re doing. Our dog always comes home happy!

I have a 2 year old Siberian husky who attended daycare multiple times. She has been accustomed to daycare since she was 4 months old and had no problems whatsoever. After my dog had spent multiple days a week at Happy Tails, I was told that i needed to have a discussion about my dog’s anxiety during break time. I was not aware that this day care had break time, where they put the dogs in separate kennels that resemble animal shelter cells. I do not kennel my dog, she’s a Siberian husky/malamute mix who is very active. She has attended multiple daycares who do not practice “break time.” She can self regulate, and frankly I am not willing to pay $50 per day for her to be forced to have a break time where she is separated from the other dogs and is locked into a kennel. I am glad that I never brought my older husky to this daycare whom I adopted from the shelter, as I feel these “break” times would have brought back too many traumatic memories. Do not recommend this daycare mainly because they do not know how to handle active dogs and want to discuss “your dog’s anxiety” after they lock them in an individual cell away from all of the other dogs.

I cannot recommend Happy Tails enough. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. They go above and beyond for our two dogs. They conduct pawsonality interviews for new dogs to make sure it’s a good fit for all (I so appreciate that daycare and boarding facilities do this!) and our dog Cleo struggled during hers - she suffers from some anxiety and HT worked through a variety of options - housing her in the larger kennel, housing her with her brother Boots and also trying a crate. I spoke on the phone with the manager multiple times during her first few visits and worked out a plan for her that would ultimately make her the happiest and most successful when staying at HT. The amount of thoughtfulness, professionalism and care that they provide for our dogs is unmatched. Cleo has tried other daycares where she says “nope, not going in.” When we arrive at HT her entire body wiggles from excitement and she cannot wait to go. They know the personalities of our two dogs better than anyone and they have them in the appropriate groups of other dogs they get along with and let them go out to the bathroom together before bed when they board there so they can say goodnight to one another. If only every daycare and boarding facility could be like Happy Tails.

Having just moved to the Portland area, I decided to try Happy Tails out for my two dogs. The moment the owner referred to my Sharpei as a “power breed,” I knew my dogs wouldn’t be treated with the love and kindness they more than deserve. After their two visits, I was told they did well. However, when I tried to schedule them for boarding, the the owner informed me that I would have to bring them at least five times before boarding bc they showed signs of anxiety. Even then, he said they might not be able to board. Thankfully, this is the only place we have ever received this kind of treatment. We now go to a daycare and boarding facility that welcomes my pups with open arms and they have a blast swimming and playing with other dogs.

I've been taking our pup here since she was old enough to go. She LOVES it. We had to stop while she wasn't spayed and life was brutal. I work long shifts, and not many places can accommodate 6:30 AM to 8:00 PM. The staff loves their clients for sure. She's always excited to go, and sleeps like a rock. I drive out of my way to come here. Also have a great walking service with an app to go with to keep you informed! We love Happy Tails

Been to other places and this is by far the absolute best dog day care and boarding around! They are responsible, attentive, kind and dedicated. They get to know each dog and ensure s/he has an excellent experience. My two dogs flip out when we say, "Wanna go to ... Happy Tails?" It's our favorite :)

She was very nice, on the phone, but has no space for my dog.

This is by far the most fun and fulfilling job I’ve ever worked at. My stranger reactive/dog selective pup, Sundae, also loves it here! It’s amazing to see how far she’s come with the staff, even rolling over for belly rubs from them and jumping on them to get kisses. I love getting the daily report cards and seeing my selective girl get the chance to make friends and play her little heart out. They also make sure to let my more lazy pup, Moose, get as many naps as he needs and sneak him some cookies when I’m not looking. My dogs love it here and so do I! Thank you Roscoes <3

There are not enough characters available to tell you all the reasons I/we love this place. Bottom line is my big baby Rip wags his tail when we pull in the lot and can't wait to get through the door to play. He is happy and exhausted when I pick him up. I trust this staff at Roscoe's 100% with my boy and this means everything!! They've helped me learn more about some of his puppy/adolescent behaviors and helped with redirecting tips. They even surprised me with a bday photo! Every month they offer a different photo shoot for a nominal fee. My lil turkey!! They're amazing. We are thankful for Roscoe's!

My pup has been going to Roscoe's for almost 2 years and we are big fans! The staff are all so friendly and take great care of my pup while he is there. I am also so pleased with the level of communication! They call or communicate at pick up anything we need to know, and the daily report cards are great - I always look forward to their photos! It's nice to be able to watch my dog on the live webcams. My dog always has a great time here, and I feel good leaving him in the care of such wonderful people. Highly recommend!

Roscoe's was recommended to me by my dog's vet when he was a small puppy. That was about three years ago, and he's been going regularly ever since. I could not be happier with the care he gets there, and the people are nothing but terrific. They're friendly and helpful in times of need (such as last-minute overnights for family emergencies), and they clearly love the dogs they get to spend their days with (mine in particular, of course). It's exactly what we needed for our Springer Spaniel as well as the rest of our family.

Pops loves it there, though he does seem prefer the company of the playgroup supervisor over the dogs. We love the webcams! I'm constantly checking in on him at work and everybody here loves watching the dogs. And the optional photo shoot packages are great!

My dog has been there for 10 stays and gotten kennel cough 3 times. The most recent time picking him up it had already progressed badly enough that he needed to be taken to the emergency vet. They ignore warning signs and do not isolate dogs that are exhibiting symptoms regardless of how severe. It is a nice space, and the webcam to watch your dogs is great, but not worth the risk.

My dog stays at roscoes whenever I go on a trip. It's nice to be able to see him on cameras and check in on him while I'm gone. I also love seeing the report cards and the pictures they send!

My dog loves the VIP program. The more individualized program with less dogs, which means less chaos for him. He gets his energy out playing with a few dogs. He’s happy and safe.

Roscoe's is truly the best. I always know my dog, Jerry, is having fun and being well cared for and I love the report cards we get at the end of each day with photos of Jerry and his friends! I also love their availability for daycare and overnights that make spur of the moment plans a breeze!

Love how they care for your pet as their own! Also love the videos and pictures they send. I like that you can check in with the cameras to catch your dog having fun!

Jessica from GPPS has been taking care of my cat Socks for several years and I could not be more happy and grateful for the wonderful service she has provided. Jessica is great with communicating, is always available, and provides pictures and updates during each visit giving me peace of mind while I am away. I highly recommend Jessica to take care of your pets

Jessica and Abbie were so professional! Abbie took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. I was nervous to have a pet sitter because my cats are very shy but Abbie was understanding and helped us feel comfortable. Highly recommend Greater Portland Pet Sitting! We will definitely use them again in the future.

Always knew my fur baby was in good hands with Abbie taking care of her when I needed to travel. Grateful to have had that peace of mind, particularly with an older pet. The daily check-in photos of her sweet face were appreciated. Though my sweet Cali passed recently at 16+ years old, I will continue to recommend this service for those with pet companions in their lives.

Recently I found Greater Portland Pet Sitting's website and contacted them to take care of my cat (Charlie) and my sister's two cats while we went on vacation. Charlie is an older cat that had been having some health issues, and I was concerned about leaving him for 4 nights. I met with the owner/Jessica prior to leaving and I knew right away that Charlie was in good hands and I was right. Jessica took great care of him, was very responsive and sent pictures & updates daily. I highly recommend Greater Portland Pet Sitting for any pet sitting needs. They're the best pet sitters that I've ever used!

Jessica has been caring for my pets for over 3 years. Sadly, we are moving out of her service area, and we are going to miss her SO much! Jessica is professional, reliable, responsive, and most importantly has taken excellent care of my pets! Even my super shy kitty who hides from almost everyone comes out to see Jessica when she visits. It's so comforting to go away and know your pets are in good hands.

My experience with Jessica was great! She is friendly, professional, and sends pictures and can provide additional services such as taking mail in and watering the plants. My wife and I were able to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind that our kitties were well cared of. I would certainly recommend her services and we will be reaching out for future pet sitting needs.

Jess has been cat-sitting for us for 3 years now. She is professional, flexible, and takes great care of our furballs. Jess goes the extra mile whether it's bringing packages inside while we're away, watering our Christmas tree during the holidays, and sending us pet pics during every visit. :) We've been able to rely on her in a pinch when my wife and I both needed to travel for business. Highly recommend GPPS if you're looking for the best!

GPP Sitting is amazing! They are always available and flexible for all of my travel. And they take wonderful care of my two cats, I highly recommend them. Thank you so much!!

Jessica has been taking care of our 15 1/2 year old dog Max since he was young. Throughout every stage of his life and our family needs (walks during the day, short and long overnight stays) Jessica has taken care of Max as if he was her own. She is loving, kind and very organized. We have always received daily pictures and updates when she is with him. Max has had a lot of health issues over the last 2 1/2 years and Jessica has been terrific at taking care of him as he as gotten older and needed more health-related care. Our recommendation for Jessica is boundless. She is exceptional and we are extraordinarily grateful for her care of Max over these many years.

We have been using Greater Portland Pet Sitting for years and would highly recommend! From feeding, to brushing, to cleaning the litter(from a messy cat), we always know our cat is well taken care of. Jessica really goes above and beyond to grab the mail, etc. Also love the updated texts and photos while we're gone!

They offer a nail trim clinic at our local pet store which is wonderful!! That is so incredibly convenient for pet owners! Amazing, caring people that care about all animals and the community!

We are new here and are so happy with the way our 3 dogs looked after grooming. They were all perfect. I was worried about our smallest dog because the last groomer I tried said he was too anxious and couldn’t be clipped. Oliver looked beautiful and wasn’t a problem I am so happy. Everyone was very friendly and professional. HIGHLY recommended!

We love this place! The staff is always totally friendly, and the dogs clearly love being there. Mine is normally trembling with excitement waiting at the door to get in. If that’s not the best sign of a dog being comfortable somewhere, I don’t know what is. You won’t find a better dog bath anywhere either. Depending on your breed, it’s possible whoever has washed your dog in the past hasn’t made it all the way down to the skin with a good scrubbing… I have a Labrador retriever with somewhere between three and four layers of fur (it’s best suited for swimming in cold water/oceans, sea fairing dogs back in the day), and he looks and smells amazing long after his bath from another dog day. I can tell the oils and odor have been removed from his skin. Give them a chance, if you have a friendly, outgoing dog, it’ll thank you.

Our dog Barkley loves this place so much He is so happy that he is spending the night. The staff is very friendly and you can tell they really love dogs. There is a big backyard for the dogs to Play in. When they get a bath they smell so good. -Mia

My dog loves it here. The people and their patrons (dogs) are all nice. Lisa, the owner, knows my breed and how to handle her grooming to perfection. And, most importantly, on a stay-over, she comes back to me as happy as I left her. Cuddoes to Lisa and her staff, and facilities.

Hank is very happy whether doing daycare or boarding. Everyone working here obviously loves what they do and it shows in their conscientious care. This guy goes happily wagging to Another Dog Day any chance he gets.

Brought my standard poodle here for a grooming appointment. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. They made sure to ask if any adjustments needed to be made when I came to pick him up. Will be bringing him back for future grooming appointments.

Another Dog Day has been a saving grace. All the staff are friendly and accommodating. I like how they only allow a limited amount of pups. And most importantly, Blue approves 😂 …

My Izzy loves it here and they treat her like the Queen she is. !!!

Thank you for being available when we needed a safe and trusting environment for our dog, probably the best Dog daycare in the Greater Portland Maine. Super friendly staff, very committed to excellent service and care deeply for our furry friends and family.
