Refreshing Paws 132 Brackett Road, Gorham, ME 04038

"Staff was friendly and helpful. The facility came highly recommended. They are very accommodating for special needs. They seem quite organized. I'm sure they get good care. The owner is a vet tech. The cages were large but bare with cement floors. It was loud with all the dogs barking. The outdoor pens were a row of cages with cement floors. Very sparten. There are indoor and outdoor play areas."

"We absolutely LOVE the staff at refreshing paws. It was only our Shiba Inu, Kira’s second stay and she was over the moon. She ran in the door and licked their face she remembered having such an amazing time. The staff are so sweet and I just love them. Kira was in heat during her stay and they still welcomed her with kindness. Will definitely be continuing to use them when we travel!"

"Up until recently, we have had family watch our two dogs (beagle and pit/husky mix) when we have gone on vacation. That's no longer an option, so we had to hunt for a good kennel. This is the one!! We were nervous dropping them off, but the good folks at Refreshing Paws (Whitney especially) reassured us that they'd treat them like family. She even called us on our trip to tell us our dogs were doing great, and said we could call anytime! That peace of mind was wonderful. When we came to get the dogs, they were wagging their tails and seemed so happy! A great experience for all!"

"Great and caring owners Doug and Kathy, when my wife passed away they groomed and washed her dog. It gave our family comfort that we would continue to take care of her Great Pyrenes."
