SUPERDOGGIEZ, 24hr home boarding & day care.
Pet care experience
Currently, I am now accepting new client requests, for SIGHTHOUNDS ONLY at present (eg- Greyhounds, whippets, Galgos etc) Lyn & I are Greyhound specialists. Please read my reviews from clients for their views on my work. Please see calendar for availability. I'm now 5 star Council Licenced for 10 Boarding Dogs (Licence No. BOES/76/1, Fareham Borough Council), & treat all animals with respect and dignity. I offer 24hr dog boarding, day care, animal transportation, pet sitting and advice. I began an Advanced Diploma in Canine Behaviour Managment (uncompleted at present). I've previously worked in children's services. I have 2 rescue greyhounds, Ali 9yr & Fitz 7yrs old, and a rescued Galgo (Spanish greyhound) Geraldine, 4yrs. [On 5/11/2018, after six weeks of deterioration, Angel succumbed to an aggressive cancer, and was put to sleep. On the 27/8/2020, Cal was diagnosed with an aggressive tumour in his right front shoulder that was inoperable and had to be put to sleep at 17.30. Both have left massive holes on our hearts!] Ali loves to play, but can be boisterous, although she's becoming calmer with age. Fitz is a gentle giant, size of a small horse but so gentle!!! Fitz is now a certified PAT (Pets as Therapy) dog, and visits local care homes. Small, nervous dogs/pups may be unsuitable. Geraldine is an ex hunting dog with three legs. Everyone who has met her wants to take her home! I've completed an animal first aid course & I'm an experienced first aider. I live in a small village & have access to long country walks. I specialise in Greyhounds & I'm increasing my experience with other breeds. I advocate non adversarial training for dogs (not punishment led, but positive re-enforcement and behaviour modification). This is a non smoking, child free environment. New guests MUST meet & greet before a booking AT LEAST a week before the booking so the dogs can become acquainted & owners are happy. All dogs MUST be chipped, and neutered, with ID tags. Due to Covid, Alabama Rot and dog theft, NO STRUCTURED 'WALK' IS IMPLIED OR GUARANTEED DURING THE BOOKED PERIOD, HOWEVER THE DOGS WILL RECEIVE ADEQUATE EXCERCISE. I live in a bungalow with a large secure garden & I am able to transport your dogs! Dogs under 2yrs need extra supervision so I (may) charge extra per day for them. Rates can also change depending on circumstances (Xmas, boxing day & New Year holidays are double time). CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR BOOKINGS - PREVIOUS BOARDERS ONLY, NO NEW DOGS. Contact for availability This is my full time employment and therefore I am able to care for your dog 24/7. My partner also works from home so is also able to keep an eye on dogs for me, should I need to go out. I have a large fenced garden, two very laid back greyhounds and lots of equipment that I have amassed over the years. I am also 5 star rated by the local council and am fully complicit with legal regulations.
Reviews
We recently arranged a trial stay with Phil and Lyn for our 8 year old brindle male. Phil is extremely personable, very knowledgable about dog behaviour and our boy thoroughly enjoyed his stay. Phil is a bit of a dog whisperer as we were concerned about our dogs reactions to smaller breeds, within an hour of drop-off I received a photo from Lyn of him relaxing with a smaller breed looking very happy indeed. All in all I would highly recommend Phil and Lyn as they really know their stuff and you can leave your dog without any worries. Thank you both for looking after him and Luca is looking forward to his next visit.
Blue enjoyed his short stay, love’s spending time with Phil and Lyn, always well looked after, always a happy hound when we pick him up.
Phil & Lyn C. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Superb service. Phil and Liz very dog knowledgeable and understand different personalities of my boys. Very happy leaving them in very safe hands.

Information Phil & Lyn C. would like to know about your pet
We are now currently only taking greyhounds and any other sighthounds. This is our preference but previous boarders are more than welcome. We have a wealth of experience with greyhounds.
A typical day
Walks are not guaranteed, however dogs will have adequate exercise. I have a large garden and always supervise boarding dogs so ideally I like boarding dogs to socialise and play with each other as often as they want to. If I have a dog singularly then they will get appropriate exercise, which may or may not include a walk of not less than 20 minutes. In the summer there is a doggy splash pool available as well as a nearby river.
