Thank you for your interest in Woodlawn Pet Resort! Woodlawn has been in continuous operation for 30 years and is currently owned and operated by Andrea and Abel LeBlanc. Before purchasing the kennel in 2004, Andrea had spent much of her life working with animals including several years in the boarding industry. The LeBlanc family lives on the kennel property with their three cats and four dogs.
Services
All Dogs and Cats must be free of fleas or given a flea bath at the owner's expense before entering the cat room. Owners must provide proof of vaccinations. Please note: Boarding charges will apply for the first day of your pet's stay regardless of check-in time. If you check out during morning hours you will not be charged for the final day of the visit.
Dogs boarding, daycare or grooming, Woodlawn Pet Resort requires Rabies, yearly Bordetella (canine cough), Distemper/Parvo, negative fecal or worming on every dog and be in good health. For the safety of your new puppy, we require that puppies receive a series of vaccines completed prior to boarding, daycare or grooming.
Woodlawn Kennel is a wonderful place for our furry kids! I bring my little guy to daycare and if he needs to board anywhere - he stays with Woodlawn. Woodlawn has indoor/outdoor runs, A/C in the summer, comfortable heating in the winter, a back-up generator, and the owners live 25 feet away from the front door of the kennel.

This is a wonderful facility for pets! I have boarded my dogs here for many years and they love coming to day care as well as overnight stays. The owners are very conscientious, safety and cleanliness are obviously a high priority. My dog is a rescue and very wary of going anywhere outside the home, but always is happy to go to Woodlawn. The owners always make sure to ask if he has eaten yet, provide grain free food (but will feed anything I bring as well) and will often give him a free bath if he gets dirty during playtime.
They are also very accommodating to schedule changes, offering many times to stay open later so I can pick up my dog the night I arrive back from a trip. I have even boarded my cat here - the owner and her family made sure my cat received extra attention and affection. I highly recommend this business! I don't understand why anyone would give them a bad review, and certainly don't understand why anyone would do it without having a private conversation with the owners. That's just cowardly and immature.

I board my dog Fenway here, and have brought him to daycare a few times as well. They have always taken great care of him. The workers are friendly and I can tell my dog does really likes it here. I have had bad experiences at several other facilities, so it is nice to have finally found a place I can trust. I feel like they like and care about my dog which is important to me because he is ADORABLE. Thanks Woodlawn for taking great care of my baby.

My 1st time dropping off a 10 month old pointer mix at a boarding. Amazing hassle free experience! We went hiking in Mt Washington area and stayed in the hotel that was not pet friendly. But Woodlawn Pet Resort was conveniently on the way near I-93 and prices are extremely reasonable. Setting is nice country and very friendly people. Would definitely use their services again!

Not only was the owner extremely unpersonable but my dog came back to me skin and bone. The night I got her back she was passing blood and very hungry. Where she had been to the vet the day we dropped her off to get a vaccine for the stay she was in too health the vet said that she was in amazing shape especially given her age. When she came home she was painfully skinny and passing blood the vet said she was malnourished and that she must not have been eating. If the woman was paying any attention to the dogs in her care at all she would have seen the huge weight drop! Do not bring your pets here.

Our bunny has stayed at Woodlawn on several occasions. He seems to really do well there and always looks happy and bigger when we pick him up. I know the owners take good care of him and their children really enjoy our bunny. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again and it's nice to know we always have a place for him to go when we travel. I like that they take different kinds of animals, not just dogs.

We absolutely love this place. They took excellent care of my dogs and handled their special needs with the utmost care. My dogs loved it there as well and were always happy to stay. The staff was always welcoming to us as and our dogs. This is one of the only places I felt comfortable leaving them besides with family. I highly recommend Woodlawn Pest Resort to all my friends.

I agree with the below comment, that Chris made. Also another reviewer below commented on them not adding extra playtime after asking several times, which was the same issue I had. When I set up the board the girl was new and couldn't answer any questions, so the owner called me back. She assured me we would get the extra play times and that I would be given a tour when dropping off, and to be sure to bring proof of vaccine when I got there. Sounded great! drop off day came and the person running the desk had no idea who I was, why I was there, and when I tried to give him the paperwork on my dogs vaccine he said he didn't think he needed it.
He also said he didn't see anything noted about extra playtime. Ok. Then we went on to the tour. Office was a mess and completely unorganized, overall dirty, and all the dogs had gone to the bathroom on the concrete in which they were confined to. We brought my dog to his kennel and they closed the door, never has he looked so scared. I didn't feel right about leaving him and with some quick calls I was able to get him into the barking dog in hooksett, which was a much better decision! I expected maybe a call from the owner to see why we pulled him last minute but didn't get that either. All in all I was really disappointed with the whole experience.

Woodlawn Pet Resort was recommended to us by a family friend for our dog's first stay at a kennel. I liked the website, and trusted the friend, so we went along with it. My dog seemed to be fine after her stay, but since Woodlawn seems to be run so poorly I can't imagine that her experience was all we hoped for it to be. I had called at least a month in advance of our trip to add a night onto her stay and to add extra playtime for her, at an extra cost.
On our trip, we had called twice to confirm that she was getting the extra playtime that we wanted for her. This doesn't include the two times we called during business hours that no one answered. Both times we spoke to someone we were told that they did not have her chart available at the moment but that she would be getting the extra playtime. When we came to pick her up, the woman did not seem very friendly or thankful for new customers.
She made a comment that we were meant to pick her up the night before, even though I had changed the pick up date when I had called the month before. Not only that, but when we were told the price, it was the price of just the kennel stay with no extra playtime. Even though we spoke to at least two different people on three different occasions about extra playtime, our dog received none. We really wanted to like this place, but will not be returning.

The best kennel in the area. Woodlawn is the "home away from home" for my dogs. The kennel is always clean and the staff is always pleasant. They do a great job not just keeping your pet safe while you are away, but making this a place your pet gets excited about coming to. The dogs seem genuinely happy to see any member of the staff that is there to greet us and also very happy when we return. Your pet will be safe and loved while they are staying at Woodlawn.
