Common Questions
How often will my dog be exercised?
Unless otherwise requested, dogs are walked at least twice a day (every day, rain or shine). Most dogs have their exercise off lead (subject to the relevent permission being signed), so they can make the most of their surroundings and really enjoy their time here. If you would prefer your dog not to be off lead, we can also utilise a long line or flexi-lead to give them as much freedom as possible.
Is food included?
If you are happy to have your dog fed a natural diet during their stay, then yes, food (and treats) is included. Alternatively, you are welcome to provide their own food for the duration of their stay with us.
Can I book online, and what is your cancellation policy?
We do have an online booking form, however your booking is not confirmed until we are sure we can offer the dates you requested and have availability for your dog. Confirmation of dates is usually recieved within a couple of hours of submission of the form, and your booking is confirmed once the deposit has been paid.
A full refund on the deposit is applied if you cancel within 24 hours after your dogs 'meet and greet' day. Full payment for your dogs stay will be requested after 24 hours from the 'meet and greet' day. 75% refund will be applied if your dogs stay is cancelled with 14+ days notice, 50% refund with 7+ days notice, but no refund will be given if less than 7 days notice is given.
If you collect your dog before the agreed date, you will not recieve a refund.
Can my dogs stay if they aren't neutered?
Yes! Entire males are welcome as long as they are not aggressive towards other dogs (including other boys). Un-neutered females are also welcome, but they must not be in season, or very close to their season, during their planned stay.
What are your basic requirements?
Dogs must be friendly and not aggressive.
Vaccinations and parasite control must be up to date.
Dogs must be microchipped.
Do you keep in touch during their stay?
Yes, we love to keep you informed of your dogs antics whilst they are with us. Our preferred method is WhatsApp so we can share photos and videos easily, but other arrangements can be made.
We also make special arrangements for those having a birthday during their stay with us, and yes it does involve candles and us singing Happy Birthday!
