My name is Jane McMahon and having owned and been besotted by dogs for over 20 years, I've decided to turn my passion into my business and start up Wags & Sniffs Pet Services offering:
Home Boarding. Full insured, recently gained my 4 star Licence from North Northants Council (no 22/01910/AWBH), Enhanced DBS checked and Canine First Aid qualified for 3 years from Oct 2022. If you are going away
for an extended period due to work commitments or holidays, home boarding is a much less stressful option as your dog joins us in our comfortable home, receiving care, attention, cuddles and exercise in a friendly family home from home environment. Guest dogs will be walked twice a day for 20 mins at a time (as a minimum!). There is access to the garden and enrichment activities/toys as appropriate. There is a resident neutered dog Mowgli and children of 16 & 12 so family friendly dogs welcome. Initial meet & greet essential to ensure we can meet your dog's needs and they will feel happy staying with us. New dogs requesting bookings of over 3 nights will need an overnight trial as per the licence conditions. Home Boarding (NNC Licence no 22/01910/AWBH)

Pop in Services. Sometimes, all you may require is a pop in visit for your pet at your home. Services can be useful if you have an elderly dog not requiring day care or dog walking services in order to break the day up for them. The service could include feeding them or simply providing them with some company and a toilet break. Any accidents will be cleared up and their water refreshed. This will give you peace of mind if you may be out of the home for a prolonged period. Pop in service (Brambleside area only)
