Dog Boarding Sherborne

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and love animals (unless they are rodents!) Ive had experience from 5 week old pups all the way to caring for dogs in their senior years, giving medication, insulin injections etc. After losing our beloved 16 year old Patterdale last year, it’s left a big hole and as much as we don’t feel ready to bring another dog into our lives just yet, I’m certainly missing my dog fix. My dog came before everything - just ask my husband! 🤣 And I will treat yours no different. We are an early rising household so you can drop off as early as you like. We are an active house. I work from home so generally will be able to accommodate walks and feeding at their usual times so not to disrupt their routines. There will be times when I need to go out so a dog that is happy to be left for a couple of hours would fit in nicely but if this isn’t possible I can probably work around it with some notice. Daycare and overnight boarding is available and we are central Yeovil based and easy to find. We have a reasonable size garden with grass and patio, with a mix of sun and shade. The garden is fully secure. Within walking distance of the house there is a small field, a park and plenty of pavement walks. Ham Hill Country Park is only a short drive away so if you’d like them walked here your dog will need to be crate trained for the car journey. All walks will be done on a lead for all of our peace of mind! Inside the house it’s open plan living so your dog will have the run of the ground floor with the exception of my treatment room. The upstairs will remain out of bounds.

“What a lovely couple. My dog has had a fantastic time. He's come home exhausted after a very long walk. From the photos I have been sent, I can see he thoroughly enjoyed his walks. He was welcomed into their home and treated as though he was their own. It was clear to me that they are dog sitting because they love dogs. I am so happy that my dog was so well looked after. Thank you Sam and Katherine x”

“Kate looked after Olive and Martin for a week and was amazing from start to finish! We had a meetup before the booking to have a chat and see if it would be a good fit for them to stay and I instantly felt it was the right home for them whilst I was away. Kate kept in regular contact and I had lovely photos showing my doggies looking very happy. They were treated like part of the family with top notch care. Would not hesitate to recommend and will be booking again for sure myself...thankyou so much Kate!”

About: I have 1 gorgeous Goldador at home.I have experience with newborn puppies as my parents oldest dog has had 2 litters (1st with 10 puppies (1 of them is my fur baby!) and 2nd with 7) so I am capable of looking after lots of dogs at a time and can handle stressful situations. All of my dogs are active at and when at home I take them on long walks daily and make sure they are mentally stimulated. Both of them are very well behaved and I trained them myself and to a very high standard (can do a variety of tricks). I love dogs all shapes and sizes and can easily adapt to any situation. I look forward to meeting your dog and hopefully they will become my new best friend!! I am at home in Norwich for the summer until I go back to university at the end of September and will be available weekdays and weekends with notice I will happily spend time with your dogs in your garden or take them on one of my favourite walking routes to make sure they have the best time with me :)

About: I am a reliable and caring individual and I take great pride in looking after my own animals as well as other peoples. I am a friendly individual and I am able to offfer services such as house sitting, dog sitting, dog walking and drop in visits. I have a part time job but luckily I am able to work around this so I am always able to fit in the needs of your pets. I will follow how the owner would like me to care for their animal wether it’s in my own home or in their home. I would not care for an animal in a way the owner did not like or want.

“I thought he was brilliant with my 2 dogs it there first time staying in a different place and well looked after thankyou for taking good care of them”

About: I’ve grown up and looked after dogs my whole life. All shapes and sizes. I am fortunate to have a large fenced garden and surround by nothing but fields. I like nothing better than to be out in the fresh air normally accompanied by my gorgeous Viszla. I am currently not working so am at home and free all day. I walk my dog twice a day for an hour at a time. I have an enclosed garden and a very friendly Viszla who is very sociable and on dry days spends most of it outside. Her choice.

“Jenny was excellent with Quincy. I had concerns about his escaping tendencies, and she listened attentively and made all the right accommodations. It was great to see that he had a fun time staying there too!”

Brad J.

“Anunya and Mark were wonderful with my daschund Chester. Been searching for someone for a while who treated him like their own and made him feel so happy and secure. He had his first stay there and when I picked him up he was so relaxed and happy, no signs of his usual anxiety at all. Anunya seems to have this wonderful way with animals and I'm glad to have found someone I trust to leave my boy with. Thank you both for 😊”

“Cuba had such a great time, I think he was reluctant to come home. Victoria took really good care of him and went far beyond just boarding him with walks playtime and everything. I cannnot recommen d her highly enough. Cuba agrees. Woof woof”
