Dog Boarding Salcombe

“Octavia took wonderful care of Biscuit for 10 days! Many lovely updates with pics and videos of a very happy, well looked-after pup. I don’t think she wanted to come home in the end! It truly felt like Biscuit was welcomed into the family with Octavia and co, and I’m sure we’ll be trusting her to care for Biscuit again in the future. Thanks again for everything! x”

“Petrina did a lovely job of taking care of Biscuit for 5 days. It was our first time leaving her since she joined our family and Petrina helped us feel comfortable and at ease with check-ins and updates throughout. Will definitely book with Petrina again for our next holiday away! Thank you so much! xx”

About: I've been around dogs most of my life and have owned several dogs. My most recent dog, a Springer Spaniel, was with me for 13 years. Since he passed, I have looked after several of my friend's dogs. I am also registered with Guide Dogs as a Puppy Fosterer and have looked after lots of their dogs as well. I am retired so have lots of time to devote to your dog. I love going for long walks and exploring my local area. I also enjoy sea swimming. I have a fenced garden and 2 doors to my main front door offering extra security when I have visitors. I have plenty of space for a crate if needed.

About: I offer daycare and dog boarding for a small number of dogs, who will have me, my husband, and our own dog Rufus for company day and night. Rufus is an eight-year-old ''viszlador", a wire-haired viszla / lab cross. He gets on best with females, but he's also fine with males once properly introduced. We have no other pets. We take 2-3 daily walks on the footpaths, coastal paths and beaches of the area, and your dog will have access to our enclosed garden and plenty of toys. I work part-time from home, so I'm always around and am easily able to schedule in some play time and plenty of exercise. We have an enclosed garden and enclosed rear courtyard. Your dog will have access to their own spot in the house if he or she wants some quiet time away from any other dogs. We will agree in advance to any particular preferences you have, such as when (or if) it's OK to let your dog off the lead, sleeping arrangements, feeding schedule etc.

“This was the first time I have had to leave Stella and understandably I was quite nervous about it. Lucy made the whole experience much better by arranging a meet and greet before the booking so we could meet and for Stella to meet the family. During my time away Lucy kept me updated with daily photos and messages reassuring me of how Stella was. Thank you for your care for Stella and your accommodating nature.”

“Bella had a lovely stay with Alison & we loved getting regular photo updates! We felt totally confident that Bella was being well-cared for and that were there any problems (there weren’t!) we would have been made aware. Thank you for taking such good care of Bella and giving her a holiday whilst we had ours! 🙂”

“Three weeks was a long time! Our sweet little Lola is it exceptionally sensitive dog. Bridget and Nic went out of her their way to make Lola comfortable and at home. Before you knew it she was playing with Presley and acting like the house was hers. I can't tell you how comforting it was to know she was in such fabulous hands! Nic and Bridget sent pics and made us feel so happy that we made the choice to leave Lola with them! You guys rock!!!”

“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.”

“Vanessa is a fantastic choice as a sitter. On her initial day care visit our dog Lola took to her immediately and couldn’t wait to get to the door to see her next time. We got a little held up on getting back to pick Lola up but Vanessa was understanding and looked after her a little longer. Couldn’t recommend Vanessa more, she was brilliant and Lola is looking forward to her next stay.”

“I was nervous to leave my boy with a dog sitter but I had no reason to worry at all. He has clearly had the best time being looked after by Nicky In her home. Regular updates of how he was getting on, and was great for him to make a new doggy friend too with Nicky’s own dog. I will be in touch next time he (I) need a holiday!!”

About: From the age of 6 my family adopted a dog and I walked and cared for him. Since then I have always loved dogs and their very individual personalities. Every time I visit my father in Spain, I happily am the one who cares for his dog. I am currently looking for work that I can do online, so that when I do have work, I would also be able to be home with the dog. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I usually visit a friend to work on an art project, although should you require a full week of dog sitting, book in advance and I can rearrange this. The dog would have access to a fenced garden. There are a few parks locally where the dog can also relieve themselves and exercise. Dogs being pack animals do love attention and I love to pet.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child and regularly take care of friend’s doggos! I am comfortable looking after all breeds and all needs! I work part time so am free all day on a Monday to cuddle with your pups! I live close to Dartmoor so there are lots of great walks nearby for them to enjoy! I have a safe fenced garden in a quiet area. I am experienced in taking care of many different types of dogs and making sure they are comfortable in my home. I am free mostly on weekends but often I am available during the week/evenings - please contact me if you have any questions at all! Disclaimer - I appreciate being told if you are running late to collect your pet - if you are late then I will modify the booking to reflect this.

“This was the first time leaving Maisy, so we were very nervous. However, not only did Mark and his lovely partner accommodate us last minute (due to change of circumstances), but they welcomed Maisy with a very warm and calm nature. This enabled Maisy to settle quickly, putting our minds at ease. Mark sent regular updates, photos and videos throughout her stay. It was wonderful to see her having such a lovely time, being spoilt with lots of attention and treats and being well loved. We would not hesitate to book with Mark again, in fact, we are already planning to, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who genuinely understands and loves dogs.”

“Thank you so much Ella for looking after Florence so well, you really cared for her in her latter years and she looks great, I appreciate your photos and messages while I was away, having an older pet and having to leave them is hard, but you have made this process very comfortable for both of us. Thank you Gary”
