Home Boarding
Going away doesn't have to mean kennels or compromise.
Our home boarding isn't just somewhere to stay - it's a little holiday for your dog. From the moment they arrive, they become part of the household, enjoying a calm, enriching environment with routines, attention and care designed just for them.
This isn't a spare room and crossed fingers. It's professional, licensed home boarding delivered with the same standards I'd expect for my own dog.
A relaxed break of their own
Your dog will stay in my home, becoming a familiar and much loved part of the household. From day one, the focus is on helping them feel settled and comfortable so their stay feels like a mini holiday just for them.
During their time with us, your dog will experience a calm, low stress environment where attention is tailored to their individual needs. Familiar routines and spaces help them feel at ease and a thoughtful mix of rest, activity and enrichment keeps them happy and stimulated.
Numbers are kept intentionally low so every dog receives the care and supervision they need, without rushing or overwhelm.
Think cosy routines, happy walks, plenty of fuss and days shaped around what your dog enjoys most.
Professional, licensed and qualified care
Your dog's stay may feel like a holiday - but it's backed by professional standards.
I hold a Level 3 Ofqual regulated qualification in daycare and home boarding, giving me the knowledge to support your dog's welfare, behaviour and enrichment throughout their stay.
My home is licensed for home boarding by Nuneaton and Bedworth Council (licence no 31954/1/2026), following inspection and assessment to ensure the environment is safe, dog numbers are carefully managed to keep things calm, emergency procedures are in place and welfare standards are maintained.
The licence has been awarded a 4 star rating, the highest rating available for a new home boarding premises - a reflection of the care, attention and standards in place from the very beginning.
Many home boarders don't hold a licence so these safeguards aren't always in place. I see it as my responsibility to give your dog a safe, happy stay they can truly enjoy and for you to have complete peace of mind whilst you're away.
Stay connected
Even whilst your dog is enjoying their little holiday, you can keep track of their day.
Through a secure app, I share photos, notes on meals and play and highlights from their day - from garden zoomies to quiet cuddle time.
Reassurance, without needing to ask.
Little extras for longer stays
For stays of 7 days or longer, your dog will receive a few special extras that make their time even more memorable:
-
Weekend Adventure Walk - A longer walk in the countryside giving them a change of scenery and plenty of mental stimulation. They can sniff, explore and discover new sights along the way. A mini adventure that adds fun and variety to their stay.
-
Doggy Spa Session - A gentle, calming session focused on your dog's comfort and wellbeing. I'll brush their coat, care for their paws and nose and provide a soothing massage. The session helps them relax and enjoy a bit of extra attention during longer stays.
These thoughtful touches help your dog feel pampered throughout their stay.
Pricing and trial stays
Home boarding starts from £37 per night.
For stays of longer than 3 nights, an overnight trial stay is required. This ensures your dog feels happy, relaxed and confident in their new environment before a longer stay begins.
Full details on all rates can be found on my Pricing page.

Boarding Enquiry
Every home boarding stay begins with a meet and greet. This gives your dog the chance to explore the space, meet me and start to settle in whilst allowing us to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone.
If you’re looking for home boarding that combines warmth, experience and proper licensing, please fill out the boarding enquiry form below. I’ll be in touch to arrange the next steps and, if suitable, your meet & greet.
Please note: home boarding takes place in a multi dog environment and there is a resident dog (dachshund). For this reason, I am only able to accept dogs that are comfortable around other dogs.
