Dog Boarding Exeter

“Nick communicated well throughout the process and was flexible and friendly. Our pup was well looked after and came home happy and healthy. We had daily photos and updates which was a lovely way to stay in touch.”

Rebecca R.

“Yves and Nick looked after our spaniels Maggie and Poppy like they were their own. They clearly love pups and really make an effort to welcome your dog into their home. The dogs were clearly so happy throughout their time there, had lots of walks, treats, playtime and cuddles. Thank you so much!”

Katie S.

“Talita, Neil and Mala are absolutely wonderful. We felt so comfortable leaving Buddy with them. We really appreciated their updates and hearing how well Buddy got on with them. We would be so happy for them to look after Buddy again and would recommend anyone leaving their pup friends with them as they are really attentive and clearly care about looking after your pets so well. Thank you all. Buddy loves having a new great friend.”

About: We are a dog-loving family based on the edge of Exeter, with over three years’ experience as trained Guide Dog fosterers. Through our work with Guide Dogs, Luke and I have completed official training and have hands-on experience caring for dogs with a range of needs, routines, and temperaments. Before fostering, we’ve always had dogs in our lives as family pets, including supporting with breeding and puppy rearing, so we’re confident and capable with dogs of all ages. Our children (aged 8 and 11) are calm, respectful, and well used to being around dogs, understanding how to approach and interact with them safely. Both of us work from home, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, regular toilet breaks, and consistent care throughout the day, as well as daily walks. We lead an active outdoor lifestyle and enjoy trips to the beach, walks on Dartmoor, and (in the summer!) wild swimming—so there’s plenty of adventure on offer if your dog enjoys it. We live in a peaceful location with a good-sized woodland garden and easy access to beautiful rural walks, giving dogs space to explore, play, and relax. We absolutely love having dogs as part of family life and, while we’re not in a position to have one of our own just yet, we take real joy in caring for others as if they were part of our family. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine as we both work from home, so there is always someone available to provide consistent care, attention, and supervision throughout the day. We’re able to offer regular toilet breaks, feeding at set times, and plenty of companionship. Our days already include walks and outdoor time, which we can tailor to suit each dog’s needs—whether that’s shorter, frequent walks or longer, more active outings. Evenings are typically relaxed and home-based, giving dogs time to settle and feel part of the family. Weekends are flexible and often involve outdoor activities like countryside walks or trips to the beach, so dogs in our care benefit from both structure during the week and enrichment at the weekend. We provide a safe, calm, and structured environment, drawing on our experience as trained Guide Dog fosterers. We follow each dog’s individual routine closely, including feeding, exercise, rest, and any specific training or behavioural guidance provided by owners. Our home is set up with dogs in mind, including a woodland garden for supervised outdoor time and easy access to quiet rural walks. Dogs are never left unattended for long periods, and we ensure they have a comfortable space to relax and feel at ease. We are confident handling dogs with different temperaments and needs, and always use positive, consistent reinforcement. We’re also mindful of safety around children—our two are experienced, calm, and understand how to behave respectfully around dogs. If caring for pets in an owner’s home, we aim to maintain their usual routine as closely as possible to minimise stress, while keeping owners updated with regular communication and photos for peace of mind.

“Patrick had a wonderful weekend stay with Kerry! He was very well looked after and I was kept up to date with lots of photos about his day. I'm not sure he wanted to leave! Thank you so much Kerry!!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She looked after Salty for 6 days and was absolutely wonderful throughout. She is incredibly kind, warm, and clearly loves what she does. Salty was very well cared for, happy, and relaxed when I returned, which says everything. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Salty was in such good hands. I truly appreciate the attention, care, and affection she showed, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and genuinely lovely to look after their pet.Lx”

“This was Bessie’s second stay with Greg and Jill. When we got to the building, Bessie was immediately excited, and she greeted Greg and Jill with incredible enthusiasm. That made me so happy—she must have had a great time if she was so eager to return! Once again G & J we’re very communicative and took Bessie on lots of wonderful adventures to parks and the beach. Their photos are outstanding! Bessie was healthy and in good spirits on my return. Thanks Greg and Jill!”

Stephanie B.

“Brilliant communication from the beginning, very accommodating and was very thoughtful of a dog's needs in the very hot weather. Very thankful she was available, enjoyed the photo's, our pet had a lovely stay.”

About: Hi, I've been a mum to furbabies for over 25 years and would like to offer the same mum experience to your pets while you're away from home. My Boston Terrier Griff, Frenchie Margot, and cats Riley & Rosa would stay at home with family while I was with yours. Having said that, Griff and Margot are always up for playdates if it were suitable to you I can be fully at home from Fri evening to Tuesday early morning. I may be able to book additional days as annual leave with 6 weeks or more notice I will ensure your pets have the same routine and service that they have with you so that they won't be disrupted or unsettled while you're away from home

About: My fiancée, Liam, annd I, have always had dogs as part of our family, so caring for them comes naturally to us. We understand that every dog has their own personality, preferences, and routine, and we’ll do everything we can to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with us. We share our home with our friendly Cocker Spaniel, Arlo, who loves meeting other dogs and enjoys having a friend to play with. We’ll do our best to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any special requirements, so they feel settled and at home. Your dog will enjoy a daily walk in our local area, along with plenty of cuddles and attention. Whether they love exploring outdoors or prefer to relax at home, they’ll be treated as one of the family throughout their stay. We know how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust, so we’ll make sure they’re happy, well cared for, and we’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. My partner, Liam, and I both work full time but have the flexibility of working from home, so there is always someone around to keep your dog company and make sure they’re well looked after throughout the day. We already have an established routine with our cocker spaniel, Arlo. He enjoys a long walk every evening, and any dogs staying with us will join us on our daily walks around the local area. If your dog is used to more frequent, smaller walks, we are happy to be flexible and accommodate this. Throughout the day, we provide plenty of enrichment and activities to keep Arlo mentally stimulated, and we’d love to include your dog too. We can keep our back doors open, giving the dogs free access to our secure garden whenever they want to stretch their legs, play, or relax outside. Your dog will be treated as one of the family, receiving lots of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship while in our care. Our home has a fully fenced, secure garden where dogs can safely play, explore, or relax throughout the day. We’ll follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, sleep routines, and any specific care instructions you provide. If your dog is crate trained and you would like them crated at certain times, we’re happy to accommodate this as part of their normal routine. Your dog will enjoy daily walks in our local area. We would keep your dog on the lead. We are happy to discuss letting them off the lead at secure dog parks if you would prefer this. If your dog requires medication, we’re happy to discuss their individual needs before their stay to make sure we’re the right fit. For added peace of mind, we’re just a short walk from our local veterinary practice should an emergency ever arise. Our priority is to make sure your dog feels happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“I am both glad and relieved that we found Danielle, we were so worried about leaving him with somebody new. We were given constant updates and sent photos of him, clearly enjoying his stay. It made our weekend away so much more relaxing, without the worry of Arthur being safe and happy. He even bonded with her two year old son, who was quite upset when we came to collect him. We will definitely use Danielle again and cannot thank her enough for her care and communication.”

“I honestly can’t put into words how grateful I am that I found Georgina. We were on a family holiday and discovered last minute that our lodge didn’t allow dogs. Not knowing anyone in the area, I was really upset at the thought of leaving him with a stranger. I messaged Georgina and within minutes she replied — and within the hour, she was there. From the moment we met, she was kind, calm, and incredibly reassuring. She immediately put me at ease. She kept me updated throughout with regular messages and photos, which meant so much, and she even helped with pick-up and drop-off. Thank you so much again, Georgina — you truly made a stressful situation so much easier, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you.”

“Charlotte and Josh were wonderful carers for our dog while we were away on holiday - easygoing and knowledgeable, reassuring and flexible, they sent us regular updates and brilliantly navigated some difficulties that arode in a really accommodating, professional and sympathetic manner. We couldn't have asked for more, and we wholeheartedly recommend them for your dog-caring. Thank you to you both!”

Caroline M.

“Tilly did a fantastic job of looking after our terrier Buzz for the evening while we saw friends. She sent lots of photo updates and it was clear to see he was having a fab time with his new friends. Thanks Tilly, we will definitely be rebooking you in the future!”

“Holly is a fabulous sitter and I would have no hesitation recommending her for anyone looking for a 5-star experience for their dog. Holly gave our energetic spaniel loads of exercise and attention, and has a lovely quiet home and garden, perfect for more nervous dogs. We will be back!”
