Dog Boarding Masham

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8, growing up with a Jack Russell cross and a Staffy, and I’ve always loved caring for animals. I often look after my friends golden retrievers so also used to being around larger dogs. I now have my own 2-year-old British Shorthair, Mimi, who is neutered and very much part of the family. My partner has also grown up around a variety of animals, so we both have plenty of experience and genuinely enjoy being around pets. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need a little extra attention and understand that every dog has different needs and routines. I enjoy walking and spending time outdoors, so having a friendly dog along for the walk is a bonus! We’re looking forward to helping other pet owners out and giving their pets plenty of care, attention and cuddles while they’re away. I currently work full-time in marketing, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week. My partner also works from home four days a week, so between us, we can easily fit pet care around our working day, whether that’s walks, feeding, playtime or simply giving your pet some company and attention. We’re also free on weekends, giving us plenty of time to give your pet some extra love and attention, with the added bonus of being able to take them on some lovely walks around the Yorkshire Dales 🐾 We want your pet to feel happy, comfortable and cared for while you’re away, and we’ll treat them as one of our own! ❤️ We have an enclosed garden with plenty of grass, sun and shade for your pet to relax in and go to the toilet! I can accommodate a crate trained dog (we can even supply the crate) or one that likes company to sleep next to 🫶🏼

“Kelly is simply great! Clear comms and a pre booking meet up to make sure everyone including the dogs are happy. Left the 2 girls with Kelly knowing they were in good hands with an experienced person. Dogs probably had a better holiday than I did. We’ll certainly be back.”

“Michael was lovely and understood the importance of sticking as closely as possible to Otto's normal routine during his stay. He sent regular photo and message updates as requested and my boy just settled straight away in his home (which is lovely and quiet). I've already rebooked several times and I'm sure Michael and my Otto will be the best of friends. Thank you Michael, the best possible alternative to kennels”

“June was wonderful, Ventress had a great time. We recoeived video and picture updates which we greatly appreciated! June was very kind and her attention to care was spot on (Ventress is teething so June gave her ice to help sooth her gums). Would definitely recommend and will we definitely will be using June's services again”

“Lulu had such an amazing time with Becky. She helped me out last minute when I was working in the area, which was really appreciated. I got gorgeous photos of Lulu out on walks and lounging around the house and garden—she was clearly having the best time. She was quite reluctant to leave when I picked her up, which says it all. Becky is so lovely and clearly brilliant with dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”

“This was the first time we used Jessica, and we were not disappointed. From the messages before the visit to the care and photo updates while we were away, everything was excellent. Boris, being a bulldog, has specific food requirements and a set routine, which Jessica and her family adapted to perfectly. We felt completely reassured knowing he was in such good hands. We will definitely be using Jessica again in the future. Boris does not like the car and we always have trouble on collection but Jessica’s husband helped get Boris in the car with care, he is now snuggled up having had his favourite dinner , doing his favourite hobby of snoozing 💤”

“Jamie is a lovely, professional guy who paid a lot of attention to Rocco before and during his stay while I was on the road with work. The comms were excellent, a lovely home, and good vibes. Thanks a million, Jamie 🙏”

“Jordan was fantastic, I only booked the evening before and she was so accommodating and easygoing, especially as it was short notice. Doris has a wonderful time, I received regular updates which was great. I’d happily send Doris back anytime. 🩷”

Kate J.

“After meeting Angela I had no concerns with leaving my dog Bear with her, it was immediately obvious he was in a caring home and would be well looked after. I have no doubts he had a great time, the updates and a pictures were great! I’ll be using Angela again and happily recommend to anyone!”

Tom D.

“Anna looked after Rocky brilliantly for over two weeks. She sent photos and updates regularly and he has come home very happy and relaxed. I would highly recommend Anna as a dog sitter.”

Jim B.

“Amanda has been amazing. I was nervous about leaving my two Labradors as I have never used home board before, Amanda made it straightforward and put my mind at rest with lots of videos and photos. Her husband and children were equally great with the dogs. I will definitely use Amanda again.”

Jenny K.

“Constancia was absolutely amazing. I explained to her about our dogs dislike of other dogs which made it hard to find dog care. She sent videos and pictures for the 10 nights she had him. She was just lovely and an overall great experience. Would highly recommend! Will definitely use her in the future if she’s available! Thanks again x”

Mollie B.

“From our first meeting with Hollie and Ed and Oscar we had great confidence that Reggie would be well looked after. Regular updates during his stay showed him very relaxed and enjoying himself. Already booked for a longer stay in a couple of months. Thanks Hollie, Ed and Oscar.”

Simon T.

“Emma was wonderful with Mila. She was very accommodating for Milas needs (choosing to walk her first thing in the morning and later at night as Mila is nervous in busy streets). Mila loved spending time with Emma's two friendly dogs. Would happily send Mila back for another visit!”

“Poppy has such a calm energy that our dog Jasper really warmed to her straight away. Jasper was very sad to leave her. Jasper was looked after beautifully by Poppy and she is an excellent communicator who looked after all his special requirements. Thank you very much.”

Caroline R.

“Very happy after leaving my dogs with Vivianne! We were sent pictures daily, and even a video of the dogs paying in the garden. The dogs came back home happy and didn’t smell bad (like they do if at a kennels!) Thank you again for looking after our dogs ☺️”

About: I’ve grown up and taken care of dogs near enough all my life, whether that’s for friends, family or colleagues and dogs ranging from working cockers and springers to Irish terriers to German Shepherds, puppies too. I’m an active person with fields and walks a stones throw, also a fenced back garden and no other pets. Any needs for your dog I’m happy to discuss and accommodate as best as I can. I’m currently full time, however some days working from home and when I’m not I only work 10 minutes from home so can regularly pop in if I’m not already at home. Dogs have free roam to the ground floor of my house and fenced garden. Preferably dogs crate trained, however happy to accommodate if not. But dogs are not allowed upstairs so they will need to be happy sleeping by themselves downstairs if boarding.
