Community appreciation
Shift work, overtime and last-minute schedule changes can make pet care difficult. Woodlands Pet Retreat offers firefighters 5% off dog boarding in St. Marys, with private suites, regular outdoor breaks and on-site care overnight.

Why Woodlands
Our three daily drop-off and pickup windows make it easier to plan around long shifts, call-ins and changing station schedules. If your timing is unusual, call or text us and we will tell you what is possible.
Dogs stay in private indoor suites instead of an open kennel line. They get scheduled feeding, regular outdoor breaks and individual attention in a quieter environment.
Daily photo updates are available as an add-on, and the Gingr Pet Parent App keeps your reservation and pet records in one place.
