Services
Candlewick Kennels has been providing exceptional pet resort services to the people of Glastonbury and the surrounding areas for over 40 years. We have stayed so successful because we know what the clients want, and we work extremely hard every day to make sure we are continuing to do so. While with us, your pet can enjoy a number of activities and services to make their stay here feel just as if they were at home.
Every guest is provided with a very comfortable raised canvas-backed cot. You are always welcome to bring a blanket, bed or towel to make your pet feel more at home. Yes, we will be happy to take your reservation during any office hours. As our suites are limited, we highly recommend reservations during holidays or summer months to be made at least four to five weeks in advance.
Every dog in our care will have their own spacious indoor area that has access to a covered outdoor area via a doggie door. The inside areas measure 4 x 5 in dimension. We keep water bowls down 24 hours a day and refill during the day as needed. Regardless of breed size they enjoy the same size suite.
We offer all of our feline guests a private dwelling equipped with a litter box, stainless steel food and water bowls, and a fleece cuddle bed. We clean and sanitize each unit daily. All bowls and beds are washed and litter boxes are scrubbed, deodorized and filled with fresh litter each morning. During this time, our staff lets our guests out individually to explore our atrium, get exercise and have fun socializing. We offer two different style lodgings for our feline visitors, our cozy apartments or luxury three-story condos.

What a great group of people to trust with your pets! We have two dogs that we board here regularly as well as bring to daycare. The counter staff is friendly and informative if you have any questions. For daycare there is always some sort of planned event to look forward to, which normally includes a fun picture of your dog during the day! Overall a great place for your pet with caring staff and plenty of options for their stay. I would highly recommend Candlewick Kennels!

They are great at Candlewick and we have been using them for many years. Charlie always seems to have a good time and a great report card. My one criticism is that we don't get any pictures or updates and he never makes it onto the Facebook page. I know that costs extra but I think it should be included for free. It would be nice to have a glimpse of the playtime.

I have taken my Beagle to Candlewick twice now and I will ALWAYS go out of my way to bring him back. The staff are very friendly and caring, the facilities are clean and comfortable, and my dog always returns happy and well worn out from all the playing he does in their large open area. I would absolutely recommend bringing your dogs here for care.

Our pup, Grady, LOVES going to Candlewick. He happily runs to the car and his tail wags all the way into the play yard. Grady has so much fun, we call Candlewick "Play & Play!" The staff is phenomenal and always kind to Grady. They welcome him with big smiles. They are professional and customer service oriented. My calls and texts are answered quickly. Grady gets to hang with his friends and comes home ready to rest up for another day. We really appreciate Candlewick Kennels.
