Dog and Pet home boarding.
Leave your dog or pet in safe hands in the care and warmth of a home environment.
Dog and pet home Boarding is where your dog, cat, rabbit, small pet comes to stay in our home instead of boarding kennels. It provides a more sensitive and caring
alternative to kennels, in comfortable surroundings, providing peace of mind to both owner and dog, pet. Your dog or pet will come and live in our home as one of the
family along with our two lovely well behaved dogs Tasha and Bonnie. They will have free run of our garden to play in and as our guest your dog will be fed and
exercised to your specific requirements. They will receive plenty of love and attention in your absence. Our pet boarding service creates less stress and anxiety for
you and your pet, it allows their routine to be catered for and their individual requirements such as dispensing of medication. This is unlike boarding kennels and
catteries that have very set routines, also petting is included, unlike kennels where it is often charged as an extra! You will be more relaxed and enjoy your holiday,
safe in the knowledge that your dog is being cared for. Our pet boarding service creates less stress and anxiety for you and your pet. So if you live in the Rotherham,
Sheffield, Doncaster or Worksop area please give us a call for more information.
Bring along your dog's bedding and favourite toys and when you leave be positive and upbeat. Don’t apologise to your dog, they will sense your discomfort and become
upset themselves.
Keep the goodbyes short and sweet and you will return to find that your dog has enjoyed their holiday just as much as you did.
We strongly recommend that your dog or pet is up to date with all vaccines and wormed, but is at the owner’s discretion and risk if not.

Dog Walking In Maltby
Do you need someone to walk and feed your dog whilst you are at work or to come and let them out and provide some company?
Our dog walking and exercising service can be tailored to meet your dog’s requirements and we avoid walking more than 4 dogs together at a time.
According to the National Office of Animal Health, daily exercise is essential to keep dogs healthy, as well as mentally and physically stimulated. Exercise not only
improves your dog’s wellbeing, but also helps build muscle tone and prevents depression, obesity, joint problems, heart conditions and behavioural issues. Our dog
walking service is only provided in Maltby, Bramley, Hellaby, Wickersley, Braithwell, Ravenfield, Tickhill, and Stainton area.
Puppy and Elderly Dog Visits
Puppies and older dogs need regular care during the day. We provide care visits that can include house or garden play or a short walk from the house. For puppies
this early routine can evolve into a full walk as the dog gets older, stronger and is socialised. This service is only provided in Maltby, Bramley, Hellaby, Wickersley,
Braithwell, Ravenfield, Tickhill, and Stainton area.
Cat Sitting and Small Pet Care
Some cats prefer to stay at home when you are on holiday or are away on business. They have their own bed and surroundings whilst we provide regular human contact.
What could be better? We can visit two or three times a day to see that your cats’ needs are catered for. Not only that but we can keep your home safe by avoiding post
building up at the front door. We can also water house plants, put out the bins and alternate curtains and lights. This service is only provided in Maltby, Bramley, Hellaby,
Wickersley, Braithwell, Ravenfield, Tickhill, and Stainton area.
This service is also available for small pets such as rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, birds and exotics. We can feed and clean according to your
normal care routines.
Visits by appointment only.

Dog owners hit with £46 million vet bill after their dogs return from kennels.

It’s costing dog owners £46 million throughout the lifetime of their dog due to poor kennel conditions, according to new research by Direct Line Pet Insurance.
The research highlights that out of 5,400,000 dogs in the UK, 300,000 have had to visit the vet as a result of a stay in kennels at a cost of more than £150 per dog on fees.
Over one in 10 dogs (12%) had contracted an illness and 4% injury themselves during their time in the kennels.
This despite the fact that 87% of dog owners who used kennels inspected them before making a booking and almost a third (32%) visited more than one before choosing
what kennel they thought was the best.
A stay with us means your dog isn’t locked in a cage or a kennel and only comes into contact with our dogs that are fully vaccinated.
Most dog welfare organisations regard Home Boarding where your dog stays in someone’s home as being preferable to boarding kennels. This is because confinement
can be stressful for an animal and may leads to behavioural problems or stress related illnesses.
