I am from Virginia and have family in Maine and I was wondering what the laws were considering open and/or concealed carry in Maine if you are not a resident of Maine. Thanks.

Make sure you unload in a vehicle if you don't have a CCW permit valid in Maine. Maine recognizes Delaware, South Dakota, Louisiana, North Dakota (Class 1 only), Wyoming, Arkansas, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.

I have a Non-Resident permit from Pennsylvania. Does this permit me to carry concealed in Maine?

MaineCWP is probably more knowledgable than I am in this regard, but I think your Non-res Penn permit would be accepted in Maine. I don't think the statute says only res permits.
