It was a delight to have Sara look after my cat and home recently. Sara has a very calm and competent presence. I returned to a happy cat, clean home and a lovely dinner which Sara had prepared for me after my long journey, Sara kept me up to date with photos of my cat and looked after the watering of my plants and she also checked the mail box. I can recommend Sara for your house sit without reservation. I hope she will return and sit for me again in the future!
I cannot recommend Duncan and Elizabeth enough - they left the house beautifully tidy and were very easy to communicate with. They turned up on time and were flexible when when to head off. Five stars all round.

We work from home but our rescue dog Heidi loves to run and play with other dogs so we were determined to find her the perfect place. Open fields, small groups of dogs that love to play together, snack time, it is a doggie paradise! She was nervous the first day but the staff was amazing and helped her ease into the whole experience. I never imagined she would go for the whole day and now she doesn’t want to leave! I appreciate the patience and communication the staff had with us when Heidi started, it made the experience amazing for all of us. Thank you!!
Absolutely LOVE bringing my dog here (and my dog loves it too). Staff are friendly and helpful and definitely care about your dog. They remember me every day and know which dog is mine for me and my partner. We have also taken several training classes that have been incredibly helpful! The staff are also very open to offering training tips whenever we ask or have a problem we're working on.
My husband and I have been bringing our dog, Hazel, to It's a Dog's World for about 6 months now. We know she gets plenty of exercise and activity because she comes home happily exhausted. We have also done 3 training classes at IDW with our dog and couldn't be more pleased. The instructors are fun and helpful to work with and give everyone (and their dog!) individualized attention. We definitely feel we learned from the classes and look forward to doing more.
It's a Dogs World is the only daycare our Border Collie, Bodie will go to, he can't wait to get out of the car! The staff are personable and responsive, and are all wonderful with the dogs. We love that the dogs get to run and romp outside in fields on real grass, and get out lots of energy! Highly recommend!
We have trained several dogs here over the years. Always great trainers, a good facility, attentive to your needs. The road is sometimes a problem, but it isn't New England without a bumpy road.
We have been bringing our two cocker spaniels to It’s a Dogs World for the past seven months. Both our senior dog and puppy love the facility and staff; they’re always so excited to go play with their friends. The amount of outdoor play space is incredible and unlike anything I’ve seen at a daycare facility. The dogs get plenty of exercise and come home happy and sleepy. You can tell that each member of the staff genuinely cares for all of the dogs and loves what they do. It’s such a relief to know our pups are well taken care of while we’re at work.
Our pups have been going to Its a Dog's World for a couple years. Started with Manners training as puppies and now they go to daycare. They absolutely love it! They are so excited to go; absolutely no hesitation when they arrive. We love the staff! They are so kind and caring with all the dogs and give very individualistic attention. Our dogs come home happy and tired from the exercise and socialization. Highly recommend!!!!
We've been taking our dog to It's a Dog's World since she was a puppy. The price is very reasonable and the staff has been absolutely amazing when caring for her! They are great about communicating with owners, being sensitive to each dog's individual needs, and they try to be flexible to meet our schedule needs. We really appreciate their service and would definitely recommend them if you need a doggy daycare.
We've been taking our 5 year old rescue lab, Luca, to It's a Dog's World in York, Maine for several months now, and can't say enough good things about this place. Renee, the manager, oversees a responsive, caring and competent team who always give us feedback about Luca's experience each day there. He comes home tired and happy after plenty of stimulation, exercise in their country fields, and companionship with other dogs carefully selected for a fit with each other. The daycare service is also quite reasonably priced, It's obvious that the entire staff are all not only dog lovers, but well versed in dog behaviors. I highly recommend It's a Dog's World to anyone seeking safe and and fun doggie daycare.
Our dog has been going to It’s a Dog’s World since he was a puppy and comes home ‘happy tired’ every time! The staff is extremely friendly and professional. The thoroughness they take to vet each dog prior to accepting them speaks volumes to their dedication for the best care and providing a safe playful environment for all the dogs. I especially like the outdoor areas they have to run and play. The staff was also very helpful when we were initially training. I highly recommend this facility if you’re looking for your canine(s) to have some time away with friends while you are at work, or they just need a few times a week so they can run with the pack!
