Pet care experience

Inn on the Bark - Give your dogs a holiday too!

We are a busy family, living in a large home surrounded by land with plenty of large open spaces close by for long walks. Near to the sea for those water loving canines who stay with us! I have been around dogs and animals of all kinds my whole life, as have my family. You can rest assured that your beloved companion will be loved and cared for as if he/she were at home. I am at home most of the the day ready with some fuss and attention, game playing or exercise. Our own dogs are friendly and playful. Buddy is a Bordernese (cross border collie/Bernese Mountain Dog). He is 6 years old and loves new friends coming to stay. Ted is an 11 year old cross Yorkshire Terrier/Chihuahua. Small in size but big on personality and vocal ability!!

I want to thank Sheila for taking care of my cats Marley and Jazzy. She kept us updated daily and sent lots of photos of both of them. This put my mind at rest. Nothing was a problem for her. I would definitely book her again should we go away on holiday . Sheila has a lovely personality and is very friendly and experienced. Thank you so much Sheila.

Couldn’t recommend Sheila any higher… 5 stars doesn’t seem enough! We have never left our two Ralph and Nellie with anyone other than family and was so worried about leaving them. They are completely spoilt and Nellie doesn’t even think she is even a dog! They have just got back from a trial overnight stay and I couldn’t feel happier with Sheila’s care. I was a wreck when I arrived at Sheila’s but she completely put my mind at rest and made everything so much easier than I thought it would be. We had messages and photos to let us know how they were getting on. I would not hesitate to recommend Sheila. We can happily book another holiday without any worries about our fur babies. Thank you so much for you care Sheila …… for me as well as Ralph and Nellie xx

I booked my french bulldog in with sheila with 2 days notice, we arranged a meet and greet and sheila put me at complete ease. I booked my dog in for 3 nights after that, Sheila kept in contact with me sending me videos of my girl during her stay. Thankyou so much to Sheila and gang for looking after my fur baby and for putting my mind at complete ease with it being the first time we have used a dog boarding service.

There are many varied and interesting places to explore locally and lots of play and stimulation at home as well. If your pet likes some quiet time away from other dogs, I have plenty of space to accommodate this.
