Eastern Shore Pet Resort - Georgetown, Delaware

Lois Linquist

So far so good. We contracted for Oct 2-8 because I need to be out of town. In order to qualify Buddy and Ellie, my 15 year old Westie and 14 year old poodle mix had to visit for the day. They say they had to come in for the day in advance of my trip to make sure they fit with their program. They did and so they are going to be guests of Eastern Shore.

In the short time I was there my impression was of a quiet, clean resort, well run and adequately
staffed but underutilized. There were few dogs there that I could detect. This might be due to it being off season and very likely is better for Ellie and Buddy who are used to a very quiet sedate life. They returned to me in great shape and happy without the normal frantic display when I've left them alone for a bit.

The rooms that I could see were large and adequate for two little small pups so they need not be separated.

It will never be easy to leave them anywhere regardless how good but I feel confidant I can leave them with Eastern Shore.

I'll update after the trip.

The best place! The staff is so loving and caring towards my pups. I book them in the VIP suites and love that I can check on them at anytime in their suite or playing in the play yard!

Our 55 pound golden doodle LOVES his weekly 1/2 day at Eastern Shore Pet Resort and we are very comfortable boarding him there when the need arises. The staff is very professional and good with the dogs… and the facility is clean and well- maintained. Recommend!

It's a nice place, but I would never do business with them. Yes, some of the volunteers are great as well
But the manager was really rude and just downright unpleasant.. we were going to adopt a dog, but I wasn't going to allow that lady to just be very disrespectful, especially in front of my kids!! Then this lady ended up handing a tiny puppy to a person who was bragging about that it's the perfect chew toy for my dog.. I honestly don't think she cares and definitely does not have the best interest in the animals' welfare.. im a farmer on over 56 acres and when we decided to add an additional to our crew she kept saying the dog better be indoors all the time and on a leash if out side I told her that's not how we ran things and we know how to handle our animals.
We ended up going to a breeder instead of getting the older dog that was there for a while. It was sad because I was really looking forward to having him!! He was such a sweetheart and loved my kids too..

Cooper loved spending time there while we were on vacation. We had a chance to see him on the webcam, and he was running around playing with other dogs.
I am sure Cooper will be spending more time at the Pet Restort when we are out of town!

Very disappointed. More senior staff had evaluated our rescue and said he was good for boarding. They even referred to him as “More of a people dog”. So we left him for 1 night. However, Got the feeling after frequently checking the cameras that he had not been taken out on his 3 VIP walks to relieve himself and then would not respond the next morning with younger, ill-trained staff that apparently don’t understand dogs. He hadn’t eaten or drank anything in 24 hours. Was anxious to get out and drank an entire bowl immediately. He was very stressed at this facility - especially with the less experienced handlers.

Great place I boarder my dog there several times. Love that there is a full bed with pillow for dog. Room is spacious. There is also a camera you can log into anytime while your pet is there. The camera is in the room also in the playtime areas. They can also wash your pet while visiting. There is a vet on staff too. Only downfall is at approximately 7pm they close shop and the pets are left by themselves overnight in there rooms.
They also have a doggy daycare too. I do recommend this place.

i definitely wouldn’t recommend taking your dog or cat there!! i recently was planning on taking my dog there for me and my husband to go away on a vacation. until i had found out that the manager was very rude and disrespectful to a friend of mine. i also found out that they are very unsanitary when it comes to cleaning up after the dogs inside and outside especially with the dog dishes…as well as the staff do not stay overnight with the animals. the last person that is with the dogs leaves around 6 pm which leaves the dogs to have no choice but to use the bathroom in their rooms until someone comes in the next morning. i didn’t take the reviews i’ve read seriously until i had seen and heard from a dear friend of mine what actually happens in the eastern shore pet resort facility.
