"Excellent doggie hotel. From meeting the owner to placing my dog into their care, it’s nothing short of excellent. Bailey gets doggy daycare as well as a overnight stay and the key thing is I know he is safe and having fun while I’m away on holiday. I have recommended them to my other friends with doggies...can’t say I’ve done that…"

"We both absolutely adore this place and he has the best time playing with all his friends and I have complete trust and faith in Julia and her amazing team. He has also stayed overnight and would be very happy for him to do so again."

Catherine Forbes and Findlay

"Our dog loves his weekly visit so much that we also use the boarding option when we’re away. He is well looked after, comes home happy, healthy and exhausted! The staff are fantastic and always give us a little pupdate and pictures. Milo has come on leaps and bounds since attending. Thoroughly recommend their services."

Five years ago Ava, another Labrador joined our family and as a puppy she enjoyed her time at Daycare and still goes but on…"
