Between the owners Terresa and Taylor who are just so so nice, fun and compassionate, to the rest of their staff they're all genuinely happy to see my boy Tucker and seem to enjoy what they do which is so rare. I'm never worried that the staff can't handle a situation with all the dogs in the yard which I've felt before with other doggie day cares. Taylor makes sure everyone outside with the dogs has a good calm energy, which when your working with a pack this size you need. I was worried too about the hot summer weather that it would make the turf too hot for the dogs but they do a great job flooding the turf with the hose so the dogs can cool off, they also have great frozen treats you can purchase for them to give your dog during the day. Tucker has never been happier with a daycare, nor more tired when he comes home, which to me and I'm sure most dog owners is the sign of a successful day. Thank you A1K9.

CareVet has ruined the formerly excellent Freeport Veterinary Hospital. They to longer return…read morephone calls in a timely manner. When we called for an emergency they failed to respond promptly and when they responded the next day they would not see our cat. Our elderly cat is on a long term drug to resolve a chronic condition that was prescribed by Dr Norman before CareVet took over and now they will not extend the prescription. They have eliminated the separation of dogs and cats in the waiting room (which was brilliant). Their staff is no longer the friendly, happy staff that we saw in the past and the vet that gave the last exam did not have any knowledge of the cat's history or did she seem to care. We cannot wait to change vets.

This was our first visit to this practice. Our appointment was scheduled for 11:30 a.m. We waited…read more90 minutes before we even saw the veterinarian. They then made us wait another hour before we received the medication and could check out. This appointment took 2.5 hours total for a simple exam. The overwhelming majority of this time was spent waiting in the waiting room or exam room. There did not appear to be a single other patient in the practice while we were there, so I'm perplexed as to why we had to wait this long. When I got home, I reviewed the receipt because I felt the total was higher than the estimate, and I realized they charged us twice for one of the medications. The staff and veterinarian seemed generally friendly/competent, but the wait time, coupled with the billing mistake, is a deal breaker for me. I will not return to this practice.

Horrible experience I asked for financial assistance what they could do if my male cat was blocked…read moreup because the surgery was gonna be 3,000-4,000 if he was blocked up (adding in he hasn't been seen by a vet yet) I told her my age and information and immediately told me they wouldn't be able to help and he needs to be brought in to a shelter to be surrendered to the closest shelter since I can't pay for the surgery not knowing if he is blocked up or not, Tammy the financial support told me that "I'm selfish keeping him and I need to surrender him by four" mind you it was 230 while we were on the phone. This devastated me so I called multiple other family members and they told me to get him checked out at a different vet because again he hasn't been seen and we don't know what's wrong, she then proceeds to send me a voicemail " know you're upset. Um, this is Tammy from Coast, Maine. I am so sorry that this is happening to you. I'm so sorry that this is happening to your cat, but in the best interest of the cat, if he can't pee, he is in incredible pain. Um, and it's only going to get worse. So, um, what we would like you to do is surrender him to the Lewiston Animal Emergency Clinic tonight. Um, they can unblock him and then we will go and get him tomorrow for his ongoing care. There's also going to be special food that he's going to need to be on. He might need to be on medications. If he gets blocked again, there's, unfortunately right now, in your financial circumstances, you're just not going to be able to do what he needs, for him to live a happy life, and I, I think that sucks and I'm so sorry. Um but in his best interests, we would like you to surrender him to the Lewiston Animal Emergency Clinic tonight. Um, and if you can't get there, um, then surrender him to our, uh, Brunswick campus as soon as possible. Um, so preferably before 4 today, um, and one of our staff could take him to the animal emergency clinic because our our, our vet has left for the day, probably in the next half I hate to be the one to give you this news. I really do, but there's just, you know, there's just no other way around it. um. If you would be able later on, you know to do his ongoing care. Then possibly to see about getting him back, but there's just no guarantee on that because we, we don't know everything that's going on with him. Um until he's seen by a vet so. Please feel free to call me." this is discrimination by age and by race I wish I could've recorded the call because she was completely different telling me I'm not gonna get him back and I shouldn't have a cat if I can't take care of him may I add in I have money to take him into a vet just not 3,000-5,000 she made it seem like there was no other option and I had to bring them in. This isn't OK and I will be reporting her if anybody else has any problems with her. Please report her because I have gotten in contact with multiple other people who have had the same struggle, her telling people to get rid of their animals, even though they have enough money. I believe she is very discriminating against people of race and people of age. I know a lot of people struggle and call her and actually can't take care of their cats, but that wasn't this case. Turns out he needed a food change and he was stressed I paid for the hole thing I just told her I couldn't pay the 3000,5000 dollar surgery she was telling me he needed, I believe it's because I told her my age and race, I just don't think it's OK cause other people wouldn't know to Bring their cat into a different vet and would end up giving up their Animal just to find out that it wasn't that serious just saying this as a warning please watch out and get your cat checked before you tell them anything. This isn't fair to people. I don't know how many animals she's done this too and whose knows if Those Other animals were euthanized or not after being surrendered again, please be careful this wasn't OK leave out your race if you can
