Our boarding services were developed with the utmost care and safety of your dog in mind. Meg and Alex provide boarding service at their home in Sebago - and transport them to and from excursions (such as Day Camp). We focus on providing the comforts of home while maintaining structure and routines that complement your dog's training needs and goals. Boarding with PIC means you can focus on your time away knowing your dog is safe and happy. Like most of what we offer, Boarding with Partners in Canine is a tailored service that can be enhanced especially for you and your dog's needs.

​
We request that dogs staying with us overnights have fecal tests every 6 months instead of yearly. We want to provide the most healthy environment for your pup that we can! Most vets will let you drop off a "sample" without an appointment.
We are working to update the website to reflect the dates that are no longer available, but please always let us know if you need help scheduling!
We are moving to a cash-only payment system for boarding and request that payments be made at drop-off at the start of your pup's reservation.
Love, wags, and wet nose kisses,
Meg and Alex
FAQ...
Q: Can you describe the living quarters where my dog will stay?
​
A: Meg's property is a small farm consisting of about 2 acres situated in a semi-rural neighborhood in Sebago (on the lake). Generally, dogs that are boarded will house in the lower level of the house (separated from personal dogs). This part of the house is a climate-controlled walk-out basement. Most dogs are crated when they are not training, exercising, playing, or being pottied while they are at Meg's home. Depending on how well dogs can tolerate freedom within the space (and wishes of the owner) they have access to furniture and the living space and hang out in the evenings with her family.
​
Q: What is a typical day look like for my dog while boarding?
​
A: Dogs are transported to and from The Studio for Day Camp Tuesdays through Fridays (Day Camp is included with boarding). At the end of the day, they travel back to our home for the evening. Dogs who have attended Day Camp will get the opportunity to relax and unwind on a walk before having dinner and going to bed. On days when Day Camp does not occur, the dogs participate in training sessions, play/exercise sessions, and walks (similar to Day Camp) on the property. Depending on the dog's social skills they may have the opportunity to play with other dogs who are boarding as well. Dogs who are in a training program will typically receive several training sessions throughout the day and are fed and medicated according to the owner's instructions. Dogs are monitored or supervised at all times.
​
Q: My dog has special requirements...is that a problem?
​
A: No. We take pride in knowing that we are providing a very important service to very important clients. Our professional training background and knowledge give us the ability to care for "difficult" dogs, and dogs that need special care. Meg has extensive experience handling reactive and aggressive dogs, dogs that require medication, and other special needs. We ensure that safety, the health of your dog, and your dog's happiness are always considered top priority.
