Great place! Dropped my 1 year old Golden Retriever off for the daycare and had grooming done too. She looked beautiful … More when I picked her up and she was tired. This took the stress out of the ski day knowing she was getting exercise and being cared for. So convenient on the way to Sunday River. The Groomer did an amazing job. Well worth it. Thank you!

I just took my two new (and scared!) rescue pups for grooming today, and had the BEST experience. Dawn understood their … More anxiety and was so wonderful with them! She messaged us as soon as they were done, so they didn't have to stay any longer than needed. Now I have two super shiny, nice smelling, happy pups. Will be back often!

Recently, I had a really great experience with Barker Brook Kennel. Right along the strip going into Sunday River, Barker Brook is located conveniently for skiers and snowboarders, who are… read more also pet owners, to drop off their furry companion for a day of daycare or overnight boarding.
I planned on staying at Sunday River for 2 nights, so Barker Brook was perfect for my golden retriever puppy to stay for a night and have daycare the other days. Daycare is only $20 a day and overnight is $60, which I considered to be pretty reasonable given the location of the kennel. Each day, my dog was tired out and did not want to leave! He absolutely loved spending his time at Barker Brook, and the staff were also incredibly friendly. Drop off and pick up were incredibly easy and seamless.
My only one critique is that they only start taking pets at 8am in the morning for drop off. 8am is also the time that chair lifts start at Sunday River, so selfishly, I would love if Barker Brook could open at 7/7:30 to make it for the start of chair lifts. Minor critique, but the friendliness of the staff and the physical activity that was provided for my dog are enough to push my rating to a full 5 star review! I highly recommend to others.

Sunday River Goers Take Note!
As new dog dads… what can I say? From my initial phone call to Cathy & staff regarding daycare for our 4mo old golden… read more retriever to our sort of last minute decision to board him for a night, EVERYTHING about BBK was smooth, easy and comfortable! Not to mention our little guy Griffin was absolutely loving life. They clearly are playing and having a blast as his GPS collar was showing lots of activity throughout his stay!
We dropped off (early as well) and regardless of my apprehension they were friendly at 755am, greeted Griff and led him immediately out to play! Without shame, he had a bag packed with toys, towels, food, bowls, treats etc and upon pickup everything was there and in great shape! I think the quote was “hes got luggage” 🙂 Leaving after the first 48 hours, Griff whimpered as he didnt want to leave- not knowing he was headed back the next day.
The staff was friendly, knew him by the end and made us feel completely comfortable to enjoy our ski trip.
WITHOUT hesitation we would recommend Cathy & Staff at Barker Brook and hope we can see them on our next trip to Sunday River!

I decided to put my 10 month old puppy (lab) into doggy day care once a week so she can have consistent play time and social interaction. I heard great… read more things about Barker Brook. My dog had a great first day. The staff was very friendly, and they made drop off and pick up very easy. I got a nice report on how my pup did, and she was super happy when I picked her up. She gave the staff kisses before we left. She passed out the second we got in the car to drive home so I know she was well stimulated through the day. Price was very reasonable too.

Pup had a great time at BBK! She was so excited to go back and came home tired each night. Staff is extremely friendly and caring, providing special attention to… read more each dog. The pickup/drop off schedule is super convenient for skiers at Sunday River, and they’re super accommodating if plans change last minute. Definitely will be back next time we’re in town!!!

My pup ( 3 yr old neutered male ) goes to daycare about 5 days a month at Barker Brook Kennel. He cries when we go by there, even… read more if it’s midnight! But, I was still concerned to leave him for our 9 day vacation. I emailed Justine and she was very responsive. Overall we chatted 3 times during his stay. She was very well informed of his behavior and assured me he was happy and had no issues. This is the first time he’s been away from me, even for just one night.
I’m familiar with all the caregivers who work there and they know my guy very well. He was a very wild pup and only recently stopped acting hyperactive and nutty. They put up with him so well, and saw the good through his naughty behavior. Just recently after his 3 rd birthday he’s finally calmed down. Justine commented on it and assured me he was happy.
I’m so glad we boarded him there. It’s over 3 hours from my home, but it was worth the trip for peace of mind as well as being a very affordable service. Thanks to all at Barker Brook.

They were so sweet to take the time to give us a nice written review of how our dog behaved during daycare. Much appreciated. Apparently she loved both the human… read more and dog interaction. She is very happy as we speak. Thank you so much for taking great care of our little girlie.
