This weekend Beast returned for a trial stay alongside Nessa in advance of his upcoming holiday. It was so wonderful to see him again, and we are over the moon that he and Nessa got along so well. Looking forward to seeing you again soon, Beast! 💛🐾

Some exciting news....

Recently, we had our licence inspection and have gained a five-star rating! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This means we have met the higher standards required for operating a licensed home boarding service. Our capacity is currently 2 guest dogs and 1 resident dog.

Resident dog? Yes, you read that correctly!

Meet Nessa, a 7-month-old Czechoslovakian vlcak, She is a cheerful and outgoing girl who enjoys meeting new dogs and thinks all humans are her best friends.

As an honourary member of our 'team', Nessa will henceforth be present at meet-and-greets and trial nights. She has already enjoyed getting to know several of our regular clients and hopes to meet more in the near future.

Stay tuned, more photos, info, and updates to follow! 💗

Anyone else attending and/or tuning in? 😊

This week, we’ve been enjoying Herbie’s company again! He’s been the loveliest boy and is always a pleasure to have around. 💗

15/02/2024

We had a special visitor this past weekend - an exceedingly cute Llasa Ahpso. Bailey is a cautious fellow who appreciates calm and quiet vibes, and prefers taking things at his own pace. We were more than happy to give him time he needed to settle in — once he decides all is to his liking, he’s an absolute pleasure to have around. Thanks for hanging out with us, little Bailey, looking forward to seeing you again.💗

Big shout-out to Groomed2Pawfection and Wagz in the woods for recently sending new clients our way! And likewise, if anyone in the area is in need of a dog groomer or dog-walker, respectively, look no further! 😊

Another cockapoo cutie recently came for a trial night. Stanley did brilliantly and we look forward to his return! 💗

14/02/2024

In addition to our newbies, we also recently welcomed back Storm, the young lab pup. He’s obviously grown a lot since we last saw him, but is just as lovable as ever. 💛

12/02/2024

Wow, looks like busy season is already upon us! We had three new guests recently, all of whom passed their trial nights with flying colours. One of these was an absolutely darling little Cockapoo/Bichon cross named Raven. It was her first time away from home and she was a very brave girl. So sweet and affectionate, it was a joy to care for her. See you soon, little Raven! ♥️

Home boarding is in high demand these days as many dog owners seek alternatives to traditional kennels. Perhaps some owners may not be aware that, unlike dog sitting and dog walking services, home boarding is a highly regulated service for which you must have a valid, council-issued licence to operate. Even just meeting the basic licensing requirements is no small feat, and acheiving the higher-starred standards takes a great deal of work behind the scenes. This is a good thing from our perspective - after all, it is a huge responsibility to care for other people's beloved dogs in your home, and we take it very seriously. With that in mind, please note that we are making some policy changes this year. Most importantly, for a number of health and safety reasons, from March 2024 onward we will only be hosting *neutered* male dogs at our premises. We have already informed our regular clients, but felt we should mention it here for anyone considering booking in future. Our full Terms and Conditions are available on our website:

As some of you may know, Glyn's dad passed away just before Christmas. We've done our best to honour our existing bookings, but we will not be accepting any further bookings until after the funeral. Our services will resume in mid-January. We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience at this time.🙏

On Boxing Day, we got to spend some quality time with the beautiful Belle. We took her to Skipwith Common Nature Reserve, another of our favourite local places for long dog walks. Always a delight to be out and about with this sweet, friendly girl. 💕

We hope everyone has had a great holiday season! Our festive period started with Keya and Sam, ‘the big dogs’, staying for the weekend of Christmas Eve. As always we enjoyed every minute spent with them and took them on numerous outings, including to one of our regular haunts, Allerthorpe Nature Reserve. Thanks for the lovely visit! 🙏🌟✨

22/12/2023

Handsome Herbie was here again recently for an overnight stay. This fellow reallly enjoys his outings and would gladly keep going all day. The feeling is mutual as we love taking you for walks, Herbie! 💛

Phoebe and Bruin returned for a longer stay earlier this month. These elderly pointers are such sweethearts and we’re always happy to attend to their particular care needs. 🤍

20/12/2023

This adorable pup is Storm, who recently came for both a trial night and longer stay. We were honoured to care for this sweet lil boy, and look forward to seeing him again in the new year. ✨

Catching up on the past few weeks of guests. This is Sox, an agile and energetic young border collie. Sox only stayed with us briefly but for such a rambunctious fellow he did really well. So much fun to walk and even put himself to bed in the crate on a night. Lovely to meet you, Sox! 💛

The beautiful Belle returned for a brief stay this past weekend, it was so good to see her again. 💛

Not one of our clients, but for anyone in the area, please keep an eye out for this lost dog!

Photos from Keya and Sam’s recent visit. We adore ‘the big dogs’, as we call them, and had a blast taking them on some of our favourite woodland walks. Always lifts our spirits to spend time with these lovelies, hope it’s not too long til we see them again. 🥰

Catching up on guests from the last couple of weeks, here’s little Derek, one of our regulars. Derek is still recovering from surgery so needed some extra TLC during this visit, which we were more than happy to provide. Always so great to spend quality time with this cuddly boy!
