Dog Boarding in County Durham

“Chester had his first overnight stay so that we could enjoy our daughter’s engagement party. Tania updated us with photos and it was amazing as we could enjoy something without worrying about the dog being left alone. Thanks so much for caring so well for him”

“I don’t even know where to start, I genuinely couldn’t have wished for a more caring and loving person to look after my boy 🥹♥️. He’s a very high energy working cocker and she had him sleeping on the sofa within the first few hours. She took him on so many amazing adventures and he had loads of different experiences that I really doubt he wants to be home! From the first meeting she had a mini interview where she asked me absolutely everything about Pickle. What he likes, what each command means, his favourite toys, treats, you name it. From that moment I knew he was going to be in good hands 🥰 I would take him back to Julie in a heartbeat, I’ve never felt relaxed leaving him with anyone and now finally I feel I can enjoy having time away for the first time since having Pickle ♥️🥒”

“Steve has been great and welcoming from the offset and made us feel very comfortable leaving the dog with him and his family as first time users of rover. Provided a lot of photos and updates throughout the dogs stay and looks like he had a great time! Would highly recommend booking through Steve and we will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“We left our puppy with Emma for his first ever overnight stay. I was very nervous about leaving him but Emma was so reassuring from our first contact right through to collecting him. She is very responsive to messages and sent lots of updates and photos so we could see how well he was doing. We will definitely be returning Thank you ?”

“One word Amazing. Such a lovely couple. Arranged a meet and greet. And felt at ease straight away. On the day that I dropped Ollie off I would usually be anxious. But I had no anxiety at all. Ollie has needs in which these 2 knew actually how to look after. I was kept in the loop of how he was going throughout his time away. When I went to pick him up he didn't want to come home. He had a great time. Would highly recommend. Thankyou 😁”

“Charlotte helpfully was able to take Amigo at short notice for an overnight stay; and from the photos sent he seemed to be having a great time. Thank you Charlotte, you may well be seeing Amigo again!”

“Andy was brilliant with both dogs and they have loved their first night with him, it will be the first of quite a few more. I am sure! They have come home very happy and relaxed and I am delighted with their overnight experience.”

“Barney really enjoyed his stay with Bethany, he had such a great time. Communication was great from the start of the booking process all the way through to pick up. I received updates and pictures during his stay of how he was getting on and how he was settling in which was lovely. Will definitely be booking Bethany again 😊”

Jo B.

“Csilla is absolutely wonderful. She is very experienced and has a calm energy which any dog would respond well to. My anxious (rescue) Chihuahua was instantly comfortable at the meet and greet and came home from his overnight stay happy and relaxed. I’m delighted and my dog is already looking forward to a week’s holiday with Csilla.”

“Sullivan stayed with Kevin for the 3rd time for our 12 night holiday. Kevin was fantastic as ever, treating Sul like his own and sending us regular photos and updates so we could see he was having a great time. Sullivan was relaxed and happy when we picked him up. Will definitely use Kevin and Luna for future holidays, Sul loves his holidays with them!”

“This is the first time I've used boarding for my dog and from the first message, to meeting to the stay I felt reassured. Bill and his wife looked after Rocket as if he were one if their own. Plus the daily updates/photos and videos were reassuring. I would definitely use Bill again :)”

Rachel R.

“Lucy has been absolutely amazing. 🤩 we definitely recommend her she has made daisy feel very welcome and she has cared for her amazingly. She has a beautiful home and Lucy has met all daisy needs and gone beyond for her we couldn’t thank her enough. ❤️❤️”

Jade B.

“Highly recommend Lynn! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our bulldog Frankie boarded with Lynn and her family for 11 nights, and they were absolutely amazing with him. He was so well cared for, and we could tell he felt right at home. We would definitely book again without hesitation”

Andrew P.

“Cariana was again so understanding for Tsubasa’s needs and gave him tender care and lots of love. Tsubasa is very lucky to have her so close. We will definitely go back for another holiday booking!”

Miki B.

“Liam and Hannah were amazing. I felt at ease dropping off my extremely young puppy for the very first time for a night away. Liam sent me photos and assured me that my baby was having a good time. If we are in their neck of the woods again and in need then I will definitely be in contact again. Thank you so much for taking care of my baby, 🐶”

“Great communications and dogs looked after very well”

“Sophie was brilliant, updated regularly with photos and messages. Would highly recommend Sophie to anyone who is looking for an overnight stay for their fur babies.”

Matthew Y.

“Poochy was very well looked after by Voon! I really appreciated the regular photo updates during walks and check-ins — they gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Voon was attentive, caring, and clearly loves dogs. Highly recommended!”

Paul W.

“Eva was the first person outside of my immediate family to look after Otis, so I was a little nervous ahead of booking. Eva offered a meet up and it was very reassuring to see her home and she immediately put me at ease. Otis had a great couple of days with her - he particularly enjoyed her wonderful garden; exploring it kept him very entertained! Eva provided regular updates and sent photos, which were much appreciated. She was very patient with him when he was a little apprehensive of her stairs (the stairs are fine - he is just a little scared of stairs in general!). She took great care of him and followed our routines at home. I would not hesitate to use Eva again and would highly recommend her to others (especially those who are a little apprehensive about leaving their previous pup!).”

About: I've been around animals my whole life, growing up with a large dog and later caring regularly for friends' dogs—and even the occasional rabbit. I'm now the proud owner of a 4-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Jinx and a playful Oriental Shorthair cat named Luna. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I go on daily walks and love exploring woodlands and beaches—because, let’s be honest, what’s life to a Spaniel without a daily swim? I currently work weekends, so I’m available most weekdays and would be thrilled to have your dog join Jinx and me on our everyday adventures! I have a reasonable sized, fenced garden. Pets are allowed on furniture/beds. Toilet breaks can be as needed. Regular walks and playtime are a guarantee.
