We take your dogs welfare and needs very seriously. We provide them with a warm, safe and fun environment in which to stay. This allows you to leave your dog, secure in the knowledge that they will be well looked after while you are away. They are walked twice daily to ensure that they receive exercise and human contact during their stay.
Due to such atrocious weather conditions during the last few winters, we have built our own all-weather path to accommodate walking. We can now walk the dogs no matter how wet and boggy the field gets as the path winds its way through our beautiful gardens and is a lot dryer. In adverse weather conditions the path provides us with a safe, alternative route for dog walking and also makes our boarders less muddy!
We are proud of the fact that a lot of our regular visitors get excited when coming over the canal bridge, or when turning into our unique driveway, then are happy to see us, and quite cheerfully go off to find their kennel, or if they arrive at the right time to be taken straight out for a walk!
If your dog has not stayed with us before you are very welcome to provide something that smells of home, i.e. an old jumper or a toy as this tends to help them relax and settle in more quickly.

Your Dog's Day
Walking - We walk the dogs twice a day; once in the morning and once in the afternoon. We have lots of different routes around the site that we use to keep our boarders happy. When walking, staff always keep a safe amount of distance away from one another to ensure the dogs' safety as well as their own.
Food - We will try to keep as close to your pets normal routine as possible, we tend to feed the dogs breakfast and dinner. With puppies, vulnerable or very active dogs we tend to feed them at lunchtime as well. If you want your dog fed differently then please let us know on arrival.
