We've used JaBil/Barbara Young's services for over 20 years now (had 4 dogs thru those years). All 4 of our pups have been medically needy rescues that (either adopted from abusive situations, hoarding situations, and also Hurricane Katrina). We won't use any other boarding place, as we know that our babies will be spoiled while we're on vacation and we also get photos and updates when we check in on them.

We were looking for a kennel and quickly realized that the Lakes Region books quickly. When we called, they had availability which should have been a red flag. We checked the reviews which were a 4.9. However, upon review after our return I saw a note that there were negative reviews that someone was compensating for but these reviews are not showing. Second red flag. We paid almost $600 to board our 4 dogs for 5 nights and when we left them we were concerned about their state upon our return. When we entered, the stench of urine and feces was overwhelming. The facility is dirty and uninviting, and the desk area is so cluttered and disorganized I wasn't sure if the dogs would get their correct food and medication. I'm not sure the dogs ever went out to utilize their runs. When we returned, we had them bathed, washed all the items we took in and they seemed ok. However, they had both vomiting and diarrhea for a week straight. We took them to the vet and incurred more cost to ensure they didn't have a parasite from the kennel because it seemed likely. The vet said their digestive issues were from excitement and stress. Barbara seems nice but this place needs to close or just focus on grooming. I don't recommend boarding your dogs.

I have to write a review to overcompensate for the negative ones left because we had a lovely experience with Barbara. We are on holiday in New Hampshire for a few weeks visiting the in-laws and needed to board our two Weimaraners overnight while we were in Albany for my partner's graduation and felt incredibly nervous boarding them in a completely new environment that they had never been to. One of our weims who's almost 12(and slightly taller than your average Weimaraner with osteoarthritis) just needs a little extra care and that's what we felt was given. Barbara prices her boarding quite affordably and if you know how to board your dog accordingly then there really shouldn't be an issue. She runs her business from her property where her home is on a large lot in Loudon next to some of the highest peaks in Merrimack county and the scenery is absolutely stunning. Due to her affordable prices and services, it's clear that she does this for nothing but the absolute joy that it brings her. While we were there we even noticed customers all the way from Massachusetts and it's clear why people will make that drive. We will definitely be returning for possible daycare services or overnight boarding in the future. We appreciated Barbara's TLC, good conversation, and good business. Highly recommended.

My Zenni has a hard time going to the vet or groomers. A friend recommended Jabil Kennels and I’m so glad! Location is beautiful and the owner was amazing ! Location , service , and prices 5 stars. I Love it and can’t wait for Zen’s next groom!

Boarded our dog and cat here . Left vaca and got them a day early due to owner saying my dog couldn't put pressure on her paws. She had no previous injuries/allergies. After over $300 vet bill - the vet said she was either left in her own urine, chemicals, or on hot pavement. Blood, Burns, and blisters on the pads of her paws. She needs to have her paws dressed and treatment for a few weeks. Owner gave refund for dogs stay.

My lab spent a week visiting. Seemed to be a nice friendly place. Reasonably priced too.
