## A Country Holiday for Your Dog, While You're AwayDog Boarding Kennels Wellington
When travel plans take owners away from home, Harkleah Meadows gives dogs somewhere genuinely enjoyable to stay. Set on 12 acres of peaceful Horowhenua countryside at Levin, this private retreat offers canine accommodation in Wellington's wider region that feels far more like a holiday than a stopover. Dogs enjoy mile-long walks, a large grassed run to romp around in, and plenty of trees for sun and shade — so they return home happily tired rather than restless. With 24-hour animal care available and caring staff on hand throughout the day, owners can relax knowing their dog is comfortable, safe and well supervised every hour of every stay.

Comfort matters, which is why every one of the dog boarding kennels at Harkleah Meadows features an extra-large individual run that is fully undercover. Dogs stay dry, sheltered and have room to stretch out, whatever the weather. Guests can socialise with fellow visitors or simply rest quietly under a shady tree — whichever suits their personality. For owners searching for dog accommodation in Levin, Kapiti or Wellington, these rural kennels offer a reassuring alternative to cramped city facilities: space, fresh country air, and routines built around what dogs actually need. Doggy daycare is also available for those who need shorter-term care during busy working weeks.
