The Kennel Barn

The Kennel Barn is a dog boarding and dog daycare facility at 5800 Gardner Road in Chandler, Indiana, serving owners across Warrick County who need overnight care or a place for a dog to burn off energy during the workday. Boarding and daycare run out of the same building, and every dog gets time to play both inside and outside.

What sets it apart

The boarding rooms are themed, each one decorated to resemble a vacation destination or an activity. In summer, the kennel adds water play days with bubbles and a kiddie pool. Two dogs from the same household can share a cage at a discounted rate, which helps owners who would rather not separate dogs that already sleep in the same spot at home.

Services and amenities

• Overnight dog boarding in themed rooms
• Daycare for dogs whose owners are at work or running errands
• Indoor and outdoor play time for every dog
• Exit baths before pickup
• Summer water play days with bubbles and a kiddie pool

Practical details

Rates published on the kennel's own site run from $15 to $40 per day, depending on the service. Booking is handled by phone at (812) 457-1992 rather than through an online portal, so plan on a call for reservations and questions. The Kennel Barn also offers facility tours by appointment, which is worth arranging before a first stay; call ahead to schedule one. The building sits in the 47610 ZIP code, a short drive for owners in Chandler and the surrounding Warrick County towns. Between the boarding rooms, the daycare option and the grooming side of the business, it covers most of what a local owner needs without sending the dog to more than one place.
