Book ahead, they fill fast! But I never worry about my fur-babies being well cared for while away. Peace of mind is priceless!

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!
