"“Thanks so much for the lovely photos! He looks so relaxed (which is a bonus!) We were really pleased with how smart and sweet-smelling he was when we got him back, and he wasn't traumatised at all by his very first grooming session! We'll definitely be bringing him back.”"

"I just wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for looking after our beloved spaniel, "Blue," during his stays at the hotel. It means a lot to us knowing that he is being well taken care of when he's away from home. We've noticed that he seems to genuinely enjoy his time there, despite returning home for the weekends. Initially, he seemed a bit lo…"

"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."

"I have been using Doggy Daycare since my dog was three months old and he absolutely loves it! I think it has been so important to socialise him with other dogs from a young age and all of the staff at Rags & Bertâ€™s are very helpful and friendly. He also stays overnight in the dog hotel on occasions which has been really useful. "

"Our corgi Puszek has been going to Rag & Bert's for holiday boarding over the last 3-4 years and we have always been happy with the service. It's really good to know that he is well looked after and gets to spend his time playing with other dogs. We love receiving the emails with updates and photos during his stays. Would highly recommend."
