When you think of “The Best Pet Store in Maine” you might think of a warehouse-sized, linoleum-floored, fluorescent-lit behemoth with a moose or lobster on the side of it. But for people who truly love their pets, it's quality, rather than quantity, that counts. We stock our shop with high-quality dog and cat foods, locally made treats and toys, and Maine-made collars and leashes. Free local delivery. Once you visit us, you will come back again and again. We got the idea to open a shop when our Black Lab “Max” began talking to us in barely audible tones, saying “...build me a shop and stock it with all kinds of tasty things for me to eat...” That complete, Max's orders became more direct-- “Build me a Dog Army of Labs that I might conquer the earth and impose my will upon all living creatures...” So we acquired Auggie and Buddy -- Max's Black Lab Lieutenants. These days, the shop is ruthlessly run by Max and his two hench-dogs whilst we obey his every order, however ridiculous.

What an amazing shop !!! I live in Maine and visit a couple times a year, would be more often if the travel wasn’t so far. Your safety is not compromised during this pandemic. They carry hard to find and unusual items. The prices are reasonable. High quality merchandise and Knowledgeable staff make this my favorite go to shop. The feeling you get when you walk through the doors is of tranquility, comfort and happiness. Is it from the light scent of incense or the calming beautiful music playing in the background? It’s a great experience which leave feeling better then when you arrived.
