One to one Boarding for your dog

While we are licensed by Dumfries and Galloway council to accommodate up to three dogs, our dog boarding service prioritizes a one-dog-at-a-time approach. We believe this fosters the most stress-free environment for both you and your beloved canine companion. By focusing solely on one dog at a time, we can provide personalized attention and care, ensuring a truly enriching and comfortable experience. This eliminates the potential stress and anxiety that can arise from sharing space with unfamiliar dogs, allowing your dog to relax and enjoy their stay without any unnecessary distractions. As we do not own any dogs ourselves, we can dedicate our full attention to your furry friend, creating a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere. We understand that some dogs thrive in multi-dog households and are happy to make exceptions for families of up to three dogs who normally live together, provided they have no significant behavioral issues. However, our preference for single dog boarding remains, ensuring each guest enjoys a truly individualized and stress-free stay.

Home Dog Boarding by animal lovers

As a family of ardent animal enthusiasts, we relocated to Scotland over two years ago and have been fortunate enough to reside amidst a captivating natural tapestry of sheep, horses, birds, and a myriad of wildlife. Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the privilege of observing and caring for these creatures from the comfort of our own home, and we are eager to extend this same level of compassion and care to your beloved pet should you entrust us with their boarding. Our family home provides an idyllic sanctuary, offering a tranquil and serene environment where your furry companion will thrive. Rest assured, your pet will be treated as a cherished member of our family, receiving the utmost love, attention, and care during their stay.
