We brought our two dogs here for the first time last weekend as a trial run for our upcoming…read morevacation. We first did a tour of the facilities, and found them to be very clean and well run. When we walked in, there were not dogs barking wildly at one another as we have seen at other kennels. Each kennel has solid sides so they don't feel threatened by other dogs nearby. The dogs have their own run that during the day the door is lifted so they can go outside. We put our dogs together in one kennel and the owner will separate them during feeding time, so that one is not stealing food or causing problems with the other one. A nice touch! The dogs also will not interact with other dogs during their stay, which is good for us, as one of our dogs does not do well with others. Don is the owner and is very nice and soft-spoken. He seems to have a very gentle way about him. On the phone, he may sound a little standoffish, but when you meet him in person, you realize that it is only his soft-spokeness and he is very friendly. My dogs who are normally anxious around new people did not seem to have that reaction with him at all. Prices are extremely reasonable. Bring your own blankets or dog beds as separate ones are not provided. They do offer additional services such as baths for an additional fee during the dog's stay. Our dogs left there calm, and not stressed at all. I feel extremely comfortable bringing them back for a week during our vacation as I know, they will be in good hands.

We adopted Monty this fall. He's a medium sized dog about two years old. Right out of the shelter,…read morehe was really "mouthy" and didn't have any doggie manners, plus he has a Very High prey drive. I was pretty nervous to start boarding him, just because of his behavioral issues. Well I'm so glad we tried Shangri-La Kennels! Monty has been there several times now, and we honestly won't go any other place. The owner Don is kind, he really knows dogs, and he runs a clean & safe kennel. He's been flexible and understanding when changes happen in our schedule (we even did an emergency drop-off once without calling ahead). Thank you to Don and Shangri-La Kennels -- not only do you make our lives easier, but Monty loves visiting you. We will be back, for sure. (By the way, Monty doing great. He's settling right in with us and getting to be a better boy every day.)

I can't say enough good things about Michele and her team. I have a timid dog, one that doesn't…read moretrust easily and is often overwhelmed by new people and new situations. From the first minute Michele met Jet, I knew this was going to be a good experience for him. Michele took the time to get to know him, to understand what he needed to make his experiences with new people more successful. Jet takes weekly walks with Michele and Chelsea, and both have stayed overnight with all my pets so I could get out of town. While I'm away I get regular updates - with photos - to let me know what's going on and how everyone is coping. I always return home to happy pets who have been well loved. I highly HIGHLY recommend Mainely Sitters and will continue to use their services!

She was very sweet and respectful to my needs. Look forward to all the updates while I am gone!! she was also able to do it at such short notice. Highly recommend her and her staff!!

Great service, happy dogs, amazing price!…read more We dropped our dog off while we went camping for the weekend with friends. Our dog is usually more interested in human companionship than canine companionship, so I told the ladies who checked her in that we weren't sure how she would prefer to sleep (in the open or on her own). When I picked her up, I learned that one of the women working there let our dog snuggle with her all weekend - on the sofa watching tv and even overnight to sleep. When she was checked out, she was calm, happy, and relaxed. I couldn't ask for anything more! These people love dogs and just want them to be happy and comfortable, no matter what their personality. It seemed like our dog enjoyed her weekend in the country as much as we did!

I do not recommend. Dogs are kept in crates all day let out to potty 4 maybe 5 times a day and…read moreexpected not to play. When they do bring your dogs out (if you pay extra) they get 5 to 10 minutes to play and then rushed back into their crates. You have to pay for basic needs for a dog, rushed walks, playtime that isn't long enough, if your dog gets meds, cuddles and "play pals" which is a very quick thing only to get a video or picture just to post on their Instagram story. If you dont sign your dog up for anything HUGE chances the dog DOES NOT leave the crate besides for going potty and being rushed at that. Staff arent allowed to use force or discipline if the dogs arent listening yet they do. If your dog pukes or has diarrhea more than once they are given Purina FortiFlora, gastro or pumpkin, if they continue the dog does not eat. All staff claimed to be dog lovers but RUSHING and not making sure dogs arent stuck in crates. News flash excitement and built up energy can EASILY turn into aggression!! Very toxic environment, toxic people and overall bad vibes there. Do not recommend to anyone near this overly expensive dog boarding facility, they do not care about your dogs as much as they say they do. Do not bring your dogs here!!
