Dog Boarding Exmouth

“My Olde english bulldog (ted) came to visit nick and his family. He had the best time playing with max (the family dog). Nick provided updates and sent us photos during his stay. Ted went out on new walks with nick and Max. Ted is super excited to come back next month. It's really nice to know our furbaby is left with such a lovely family and is really well looked after when we are away. Would HIGHLY recommend !!!”

About: Hi, I'm Dawn, and I'd love to welcome your dog into my home while you're away. As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a friendly young Sprocker Spaniel, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. My aim is to provide a safe, calm and loving home where your dog will be treated like one of the family—not just another booking. Your dog will enjoy plenty of walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles and attention, along with a comfortable place to relax after a fun day. I'll stick to your dog's usual routine as much as possible to help them feel settled and happy. I'm experienced in caring for others through my professional background in training and care, and I bring that same patience, reliability and attention to detail to looking after every dog. Whether your dog is energetic and loves adventures or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they receive the care that's right for them. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is happy, safe and well cared for. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged friend! Dog care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending my time with my own dog. My Sprocker Spaniel is a much-loved part of the family and loves spending tine with other dogs, so our days already revolve around walks, playtime, training, enrichment and plenty of cuddles. I work flexibly, which means I can provide lots of company, regular toilet breaks and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy getting outdoors whatever the weather, so your dog will receive the exercise and mental stimulation they need, balanced with time to relax in a calm, comfortable home. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, loved and included, so when your dog stays with me, they'll be treated as part of the family and cared for just as I care for my own. On the odd day that I have to attend my physical work place, my partner, Neil, works from home so the dogs are never left on their own. My priority is making sure your dog feels safe, relaxed and loved. I'll take the time to get to know your dog's routine, personality and any specific needs so I can provide care that's familiar and reassuring. I have a fully enclosed garden and live close to the beach as well as several nice dog walking areas so every trip out is an adventure. I'll ensure they have regular walks, plenty of playtime, fresh water, meals according to your instructions, and lots of affection and companionship. I'll also keep up with any training routines, medication or special requirements if needed. If your dog stays in my home, they'll be welcomed as part of the family in a calm, comfortable environment with plenty of attention and opportunities to rest, play and explore. If I'm caring for them in your home, I'll stick as closely as possible to your dog's normal routine to help them feel settled while you're away. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe and receiving the same love and care I'd want for my own.

“Cub had the best time at Emily’s! It’s lovely getting photos and knowing he’s been out for a good walk. He settles in straightaway and we’ve already booked him in for his third visit!”

“We booked our dog, Nelly in with Claudia last minute due to being let down. She was really accommodating, making sure she knew everything about Nelly before she arrived. Claudia kept in touch during the whole stay, sending videos, photos and updates. Nelly had a fantastic time and looked like she had a better holiday than we did.”

“Danielle stepped in at extremely short notice after another ‘super’ sitter let us down. Nothing was too much trouble and Paddy had a great time. Heartily recommend.”

Sharon B.

“Margot had a lovely weekend with Talita, Neil and Mala. We missed Margot a lot as it was our first weekend away from her but we were kept updated with Margot having fun on walks and playing with Mala. Their time and effort in looking after our full on puppy is much appreciated! 😊”

“My Chow Chow has taken a real shine to Leoni. Lovely environment, plenty of secure mooching around space outside. Had some great photos of my girl there, which makes a real difference. We met up with Leoni and her dog initially just to see how they'd all get on. Then trial of leaving her there for a few hours. All went really well and Leoni takes this all in her calm, relaxed manner. Next step is our first overnight stay. Looking forward to seeing how this works out!”

“Lulu had an amazing stay! I received regular updates and honestly started to worry that Lulu wouldn’t want to come home! We will definitely be using Sarah again!”

Georgina P.

“Bobby had a fabulous time and I felt reassured he was being cared for like he would at home with regular updates. Will definitely use again and recommend”

Abi P.

“Kate was fantastic with us right from the start. We had all our questions answered and felt so comfortable leaving Poppy with her, she was very reassuring with our nerves and sent updates (just the right amount) to put us at ease whilst we were away. You can really tell Kate knows what she is doing with dogs, this is a loving home and a great little holiday for your dog whilst you go away. Will definitely be using again when we need to!”

Rachel E.

“Matteo was great with Bella! Was a last minute plan and he was really easy to liaise with, he looked after our dog amazingly and overall, a super choice”

Jenny H.

“Georgina was great with our elderly Jack Russell, she has a very reassuring and caring temperament, is efficient with communications and very accommodating. Would certainly recommend.”

Darren P.

“Our boys had the most wonderful time with Jacqui. Their first stay and we received lots of pictures and videos of them enjoying themselves. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you so much”

“Eleanor is amazing. She kindly looked after our black lab with just a few days notice, for the day. Flash, our labrador, only ever stayed with friends once, when she was very young, so shy to stay with other people. When we collected her that evening, she was a happy dog and certainly seemed to have a great time. Im sure she was worried at first , understandably. I would absolutely contact Eleanor again to look after Flash. Thank you so very much, not only did you make the day easier for Flash, but for us too, was such a busy day.”

Arlette J.

“Lisa and Biscuit were both fantastic! Lisa was very professional and Biscuit was very gentle to both of my dogs. Would love to book the service again from both of them!”

Jason J.

“I meet Fiona before I made the booking, this gave me all the reassurance I needed. She gave me daily updates of how my dog Dexter was settling in, and he appeared to be doing well, it was a comfort to know I’d left him in a safe pair of hands.”

Sue B.

“Charlie enjoyed some lovely walks with Angela. She went above and beyond and repaired his bed after he gave it a chew! Thank you so much for looking after him so well.”

Liz S.

“Excellent dog sitter. My dog came back very happy. She is very polite and nice. Highly recommended.”

Chris P.

“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Yves!! Drew had an absolutely perfect week with her & Nick & sent me gorgeous daily photos and videos & kept me updated, which gave me peace of mind initially but also brought me so much joy as I missed her so much. She was so well taken care of & had an amazing social life going to a family bbq & out & about locally to parks & gardens every day & socialising with other dogs. I thoroughly recommend Yves, especially as Drew is not fully housetrained due to her age & being a Frenchie, she wasn’t phased in the slightest & has become very fond of Drew - I’m booking her again for two weeks time! Thank you so much Yves & Nick for making Drew so happy & treating her as if she were your own, she certainly loves you ♥️”

“Poppy had a great time with Josey and was very well looked after indeed. She looked very happy with Josey when I collected her. Definitely recommend Josey as a great sitter.”
