Lesley
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Reliable, trustworthy, non-smoking, recently retired, young(ish!) couple.
Third sit for us from Craig and Lesley. Like the previous two, the sit was straightforward from organising the sit, to arrival and right through the sit until we came home. We were kept updated throughout and when one of our cats unusually stayed out all night, they kept looking for her until she showed up again which really put our minds at rest. Craig and Lesley are very reliable, calm and a safe pair of hands. We’re so lucky to have them sit for us and highly recommend them! Thanks Craig and Lesley hope you can come back for a fourth sit 😊
zaneta
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Reliable, non-smoking, long experience of owning and loving animal family
Zaneta & her girls arrived a day early to go through what was required and settle in with my dog. The house was left clean & tidy and she also left me bread, milk & chocolates for my return.
caireann
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Irish couple, pet sitters + pet parents, excited to see the world!
Caireann has pet sit for us a few times now and my girls are always so loved and well looked after! I’m always pleased when she’s free to do a local sit for us and frankly, my two cats love having Aunty Caireann over! Couldn’t recommend more.
Julia
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Reliable, non-smoking, animal-loving couple
Julia and Joe were brilliant sitters. We had a video call prior to the sit and I felt really comfortable with them immediately. It was great to meet them and introduce them to my cat when they arrived for the sit and I felt totally relaxed leaving them in my home. They communicated well and sent me photos of my cat looking really relaxed and happy while I was away. I came home to a very tidy house and a very chilled and happy cat. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them and if they ever wanted to come and sit for me again they'd be very welcome. Thanks :-)
Fiona
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Retired, reliable and missing furry friends
Fiona was so very kind, we had an unexpected family funeral a few days before she was booked to arrive. I contacted her on the of chance she could come earlier which she did, a godsend to us . She then went off in her camper van for a couple days and returned to let us away as scheduled. We felt very relaxed leaving our boisterous whippet in her care, Dezzi loved her and we got lots of updates from their walks. I would thoroughly recommend Fiona for future sits.
Emma Jane
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Dog person. London born. Business owner. Working remotely between trips abroad.
Emma Jane took care of our little dog Ella just after we’d all lost her brother Kenny, and so we were nervous about leaving Ella just a few weeks after Kenny had died. Especially given that this was our first experience with Zeewoi. Emma Jane put our minds at ease as soon as we met her and Ella warmed to her very quickly. We received plenty of updates while we were away, and we came home to a very happy Ella and a very clean house. Thank you Emma Jane. We appreciate everything you did to keep Ella happy while we were away.
Emilia
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Friendly & responsible animal lover!
Emilia was an excellent communicator and clearly loves cats. Percy was glad to see me but seemed happy and well fed. The flat was clean and tidy and the sheets were changed. I cannot fault Emilia and would definitely call on her again if she hadn't moved to Glasgow!
Muileng & Cyrille
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Pet-loving couple looking for housesitting opportunities.
Wow! Muileng and Cyrille were amazing throughout the entire process. I had absolutely no hesitation leaving Morton in their capable hands. The moment Morton met Muileng and Cyrille he connected with them. They communicated extremely well from the moment I met them online and we instantly got on when we met. Morton was a very happy boy when I came home and the condo was immaculate. Muileng was staying on in Singapore and even offered to help with Morton until she departs. She's always welcome! :) I highly recommend Muileng and Cyrille to take care of your pets and home. They were fantastic!
Katie
Providing Pet Sitting in the Dunoon, United Kingdom
Scottish sitter ready to work remotely and look after your lovely pet/s♥️
Katie was the ideal sitter. She was very organised leading up to the sit and very willing to chat ahead of time. While we were away, Katie gave us frequent updates to let us know our dog Olive was doing well. We returned home to an impeccably clean home and a very happy pup. We would love to have Katie again, and definitely recommend her to others!

Reviews from Cat Owners

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.

I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.

Our review is written by Steven (house owner, host + my father) + also by Kim (the daughter). Written by Kim: This was our first house sit since the passing of my mother in late Dec 2023. I was helping my father Steven (whose profile it is) manage all the emails + try + find a great house sitter + came along Gretchen’s profile! Not only is she a cool cat + someone you might want to get to know, I found myself quickly talking to her. I shortly found out her profile is just a glimpse of how interesting she is but talking to her was so much better! She is a world traveler with many experiences + stories to share. We quickly became conversationalists who could talk forever + probably will continue to do so! Thank you TH! She is easy to communicate with + continued the consistent communication all along our journey of having her as our *first* guest after my mom’s passing. It was clearly a time filled with anxiety + sensitivity so there were some sensitive topics to go over + Gretchen got it right away. A few of our rooms in the house were off-limits (as they housed my mom’s things) but we reassured her the house has ample space for her to enjoy + there are many lovely outdoor spaces to boot! When she arrived she felt she was in paradise + really relished in the outdoor beauty + the indoor coziness. We were happy to share it with someone who appreciated it so much! She also was very understanding with the fact that both my dad + I would both be involved as we both handled different parts of the stay. Me, writing + setting up the Welcome Guide + would go over the situation but then upon her arrival my dad would take over + answer any questions mostly during her sit. The good part of having 2 people is she had accessibility to us both, in the case she needed it + sometimes it came up! She juggled all the communication oh so well. My mom usually handled most of the logistics so this being our first time we were nervous something would come up we might not know but it didn’t! It was new territory for us + we wanted to make sure she had everything. Gretchen handled it all with such ease, seamlessly, really respecting our wishes/desires + taking all the information into her hands + making it seem easy on her end to do so. She was easy to coordinate schedules with! There was a gap in her 1st + 2nd sit but everything went seamlessly even when my flight had a day long delay. She was able to coordinate schedules with me arriving in between, then leaving, my dad arriving different days + us extending the trip too. It all worked out! We were all a good team! She absolutely loved our older cat, Benny + he fast + furiously fell in love with her oh so easily. When I saw him, he looked oh so loved + after saying hi to me went over to ‘her’ bed + slept there waiting for her to come back. She sent many pictures, videos + even cute creations + toys she made for our Benny + it was obvious the house + our Benny were her first priority. She even asked us if she could help prune our flowers/shrubs, something my mom used to do + honestly it was an honor to hear her ask that. She was welcome to set up her art studio + play away. She was very communicative when our house cleaner, landscape gardener + house manager showered up for different reasons. When I arrived back for a short stint before she came back the 2nd time our mail was so well organized it was an assembly line! She also offered to take down our xmas tree (as we were a bit behind in taking down our xmas decorations) + she was sensitive to the fact that we were adjusting to a new normal. Thank you so much Gretchen! You made our first sit in a long time so seamless + such a relief that we are ready now to host again. We only wish we could have more Gretchen’s! (She’s also a super talented artist!) Written by Steven: Overall, Gretchen has been an absolute treasure. She has fulfilled our goals for a house sitter perfectly - she took good care of the house, great care of our treasured pet, Mr. Benny + took care of the grounds such as watering a few plants + trees. She excelled in all the above + is welcome back anytime I will be out of town in the future.

Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon

Brian is a very professional sitter that does a good job, pays attention to details and is easy to work with. I have a lot of plants. A lot. He suggested me do a video for the plant care so he could be sure of which ones needed what. Brilliant! I’d never thought of that. They were in great shape when I returned. I explained that I needed some flexibility with travel dates, he agreed and rolled with the punches like a champ when my dates did indeed change. Unfortunately, he was a bit allergic to my cat but made it work anyway. He was really awesome about everything including a tree that fell next door in a storm and blocked the road for three days. I appreciate that he appreciated how funny and how much personality Boo has. They got along well and I received some great videos. I returned home to a happy cat and a house well taken care of 😊. I would definitely recommend Brian.
Matthew and Cheryl
Amber is as good a sitter as you will find anywhere! She treated our cats with such love and care, as if they were her own. She left our house in perfect tiptop tidy shape, and made sure to wash all the towels and linens before she left. She even cleaned out our coffee maker and took up our weekly trash without us even mentioning it! Amber is super kind and personable and we welcome her back to sit for us anytime! If you are looking for a sitter, you should definitely accept her application!

Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.

Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.

Toby and Chloe were one of the best house sitters we have ever had! As a small animal vet I have seen many types of pet sitters and these guys are top notch. Our pets are not easy either. We have special needs dogs, cats on medication, dogs with behavioral issues, horses, chickens, goats and a large (100 lb) Sulcata tortoise who needed close monitoring of the temperature in his barn. Everyone was thriving and happy when we came home. They read through the packet and asked thorough, thoughtful questions. They went above and beyond grooming, mucking and grazing the horses and goats everyday. They chopped greens and fruit daily for our tortoise. If we had known how amazing they were we would have booked a 3 week trip instead! Can't recommend them enough.

Pennee and Bill were the BEST pet sitters and guests ever! I really wanted them to stay forever ! Our cat, Miss Kitty bonded so much to them, that she really wasn’t that happy to see me when I got home .Our cat is a finicky eater and they tried all different types of food and treats for her. They sent me regular photos of miss kitty and I knew everything was great when most of the pics had miss kitty on their lap. Our cat doesn’t take to many people but she immediately fell in love with them. Pennee sent us our mail and prescription meds on a regular basis , and went out of her way to take care of any issues . They fell in love with the neighbors and community and just made our lives so easy . We experienced the Covid 19 virus outbreak quarantine during this time and Pennee and Bill agreed to stay a month longer at our home . They were extremely flexible with their travel plans so that everyone would be safe. Upon our arrival home, we were greeted with a bouquet of flowers , beautiful hanging basket of flowers for outdoors and a beautiful bottle of wine . And our house had never been cleaner ! Bill and Pennee are a pet owners dream couple !I felt extremely lucky to have found such a great petsitter and new friend . We will be visiting each other in the future .

Cowal K9 Care Canine Massage, Dog Training and Behaviour
Recent Reviews:
My springer was a nightmare to walk. She was scared of her own shadow and reactive to dogs/ people. With Karen’s support and advice, she is much happier and not reactive when out walking. We are even managing to walk at night in areas with lots of other dogs and people. I would definitely recommend contacting Karen to support you with your dog
I can highly recommend Karen, very knowledgeable, with a calm, friendly manner. I could only walk my 2 year old cocker spaniel Toby with a head collar (which he didn’t like) to slow him down as he pulled so much. He’s a great wee dog but being a lively spaniel he sets off on walks like a steam train. After 3 sessions I walk him with a harness and now know what to do to have him walking at my pace with a loose lead, something I felt was impossible before. Karen sent videos to reinforce what had been worked on each session and responded quickly to any issues which arose when walking Toby in between sessions. The training for proximity and disengagement has also improved his recall so off lead walks are also much more enjoyable. I’m delighted with how much Karen’s training has helped both Toby and I enjoy our walks together.
Prior to the massage treatments, my dog (Iyke) was at times crossing his front legs when walking and was quite stiff in his mobility. Following the massage treatments by Karen, Iyke is no longer crossing his front legs and he has a lot more flexibility when he walks. A big difference I have also seen is that previously there were certain occasions on walks where I may have to carry Iyke towards the end, however following his massage treatments, Iyke has been able to complete particular walks again without any issues – overall it has been a big improvement for the little guy and Karen was absolutely fantastic in supporting Iyke to relax, which is no easy feat for a Jack Russell! I cannot recommend Karen highly enough and will be booking further massage treatments for my little guy 💙
I booked 3 training sessions with Karen for my little Jack Russell rescue dog, Teddy, who is seriously freaked out by other dogs and barks aggressively. Karen has given me great guidelines on how to tackle my dog's issues and I am now optimistic that I might see some improvement.
Karen has been a dream helping us with our cockapoo pup Ruby. Ruby was always pulling on her lead when going out on walks. Karen with all her knowledge showed us the best way to stop Ruby from pulling and walks are not as stressful.. Lots of other advice and games to keep her busy but also help with her behaviour in the house. Thank you Karen, knowing you are at the other end of the phone is an added bonus 😀
Karen has helped so much with training my young lab - particularly with loose lead walking and helping him focus on me in the face of distractions. All positive reinforcement based. Highly recommend!
Very friendly and knowledgable. Karen came to us a couple of times to look after our Husky as we stayed on a large camping site. Karen gave us a much needed brake to allow us to have a day exploring without the need to check if a place was dog friendly. The training she did also helped in some areas our dog needed. We highly recommend her!
Our golden Retriever has come on in leaps and bounds with Karen. He now walks without pulling on his lead. He comes back when called. I am very pleased with how things are going plus he loves Karen. She has also been training me as well!!
I can’t praise Karen enough for her patience and skill with both me and my staffy, Spock. She explains everything clearly and there’s plenty of support outside of the sessions too. She’s an absolute gem and I’m so grateful she is able to housesit from time to time. Not only does Spock have a fantastic time with some training thrown in but she takes scrupulous care of my home. I can’t recommend highly enough.
Used this service while visiting Scotland on holiday. Karen was great with our Lurcher Lucy and would highly recommend her services. You will not be disappointed.
Flatterton Farm Kennels & Cattery
Recent Reviews:
I cant yet speak to how our dogs feel as they have not stayed but the lady owner was charming showed us arround offered advise and discused cost. Its not new but dose seem well run safe place for your dogs. With family boxs and family walks if you have more than one dog
Highly reccomend these kennels both my dogs just love it there and when i collected them they both were crying they didnt want to leave and both were still crying until half way pass ibm road. Happy dogs equals happy owner.
Toby used to come home very tired and with no voice from other kennels and wouldn't be himself for days, but when he came home from flatterton farm he bounced through the door and started playing with his toys as if he had never been away! I don't know what they do different but it's nice bringing home a happy bouncy dog.
Can't thank the staff enough for looking after my collie for 8 days. Wilma was very caring and reassuring as it was the first time Millie had been away from us. We collected her yesterday and she was happy and healthy. We will definitely be using their services again next time we need Millie looked after.
Our cats were well looked after when we were on holiday last year, so they stayed again this year. Will definitely use again.
We left our boxer Ivy with Wilma at Flatterton Farm Kennels and she was looked after so well. Flatterton was recommended to us and I pleased to say Ivy looked well and happy when we picked her up.
This is a friendly family business with good facilities. You deal directly with the owners and your pets are well looked after. All pets have plenty of space to exercise.
Couldn't ask anymore. Staff are so friendly and welcoming . It shows how much they care for your beloved per . I can't thank them enough for the quick actions they undertook when my dog became very poorly
Fantastic kennels would recommend to anybody we have used them for a number of years we got them recommend to us by our old vet as that was she used
We use the kennels for our dog for holidays etc ... been coming with our dogs for years ... can't praise or recommend them enough ..
Ardnadam Farm Kennels
Recent Reviews:
Had need for dog daycare to attend family funeral at short notice, Chris couldn’t have been more accommodating. Very helpful and kind, lovely kennel and beds, complete with toys , my collies were very happy and safe which was a weight off my mind at a difficult time. Highly recommend. We will be using again when in the area over summer. Thank you
We needed a kennel for Sam and we found this lovely kennel just outside Dunoon. The kennels are great, a nice bed including toys and an outdoor erea and it is all spotless clean. The owners will do everything to make your dog feel at home and they realy looked after Sam and that gives us peace of mind. This was the second time for Sam and for sure not the last time.
Cancelled booking with us via email with 2 weeks notice, we needed kennel as we were going sailing. Now need to find another just as we're leaving to ccome to Scotland. When asked for reason "ongoing Covid situation".....you can't catch it from Dogs.
Closed no longer at home as I was advised by my friend
Great to deal with and Sassy is always well looked after
Fantastic boarding kennels and cattery. Have used Ardnadam for both my cats and dogs several times, and received regular updates throughout their stay. Highly recommend.

If you're in search of a puppy trainer who truly cares about your furry companion's well-being, look no further than Rhona from Who Let the Dogs Out!!!. I had an excellent experience working with Rhona and can confidently say that she is an exceptional trainer who goes above and beyond to ensure that your puppy receives the best possible care. From the very beginning, Rhona was incredibly warm, friendly, and easy to work with. She took the time to understand my puppy's unique personality, habits, and needs and tailored her training program accordingly. What impressed me the most about Rhona was her patience and kindness towards my puppy (and to me as a new pet owner to be honest). Rhona's training methods are highly effective, and I was amazed at how quickly my puppy responds to her training methods. She uses positive reinforcement techniques that are both and effective, and my puppy responds well to her style of teaching. I appreciated how Rhona emphasised the importance of consistency and repetition, and she provided me with practical tips and advice to help reinforce the training at home. Overall, I cannot recommend Rhona from Who Let the Dogs Out!!! highly enough. She is a fantastic puppy trainer who truly cares about the well-being of your furry friend. If you're in search of a trainer who is patient, kind, and effective, Rhona is the perfect choice. Her training programme is top-notch, and you will see a noticeable improvement in your puppy's behaviour after just a few sessions. I am so grateful for Rhona's help and expertise, and I know that my puppy and I will continue to benefit from her training sessions for years to come.
Our dog Clyde has been very well looked after by Rhona. He started in the beginning with puppy visits, Rhona was so attentive to him and he had a great time playing in the garden. He now does hour long walks and he is so happy and excited to see Rhona each day. Rhona communicates with us regularly to update us on how he's doing. Fantastic Service 🐕🦺
Over the last few months, when ill-health has restricted our dog-walking activities, Rhona has proved to be a life-saver. She has formed a strong bond with Sullie, our hyper-active Springer and they both seem to really enjoy their outings.
Rhona is an amazing Dog Walker. Our dogs love going with her each day and she’s always on time. Very flexible if required. 100 % recommend.
Our pup loves loves loves going to Rhona’s! She is so excited every time we drive to Rhona’s! Rhona is super caring and so so good with our pup! We trust her completely! Highly recommend!
Always a Fantastic service from Rhona, our boy just loves his walks with her and is very well looked after
Poppy loves her time with Rhona, is very excited when she arrives for walks, and is perfectly cared for. Highly recommended.
Our puppy Rosie has come on leaps and bounds in just six training sessions with Rhona. Her experience and expertise are a joy to behold and Rosie just loved her time with her. Can't recommend highly enough.
We have used Rhona for almost 1 year now and she has been great! We know our dog has a great time with Rhona because she never wants to come home with us when we pick her up. Rhona will also send updates throughout the day to let us know how she is getting on. 5 stars 😊😊 …
Excellent service and not expensive - used many times and would recommend highly.
Happy Hound Hotel
Recent Reviews:
Our dog George (see photo taken by Elaine) has been visiting the Happy Hound Hotel for 8 years and we think the set up there is brilliant. The best bit is that the dogs are free to come and go between the house and the yard as they please, and they get a big field to run around and play together for exercise. This is so much better than being stuck in a concrete cage and getting a perfunctory walk around a yard, which is the set up at the other places we looked at. Elaine is really nice and looks after the dogs well. One time I turned up with George unexpectely as there had been a mix up on dates. I turned up at Elaine's front door and her husband answered it (holding a new baby). As he wasn't expecting me he had every reason to be a bit put out, but the way he greeted George it was like one of his family. In summary, a great place for your dogs; I can't recommend it enough. Only thing to watch, is book early as places get booked up quite quickly.
We're really happy that we found the Happy Hound Hotel as our two dogs love it. The rooms are great and the outdoor space is brilliant with different enclosed runs and a big paddock for the dogs to play in. Elaine is great with our two girls, one of which is a rescue, and she is happy to cater for raw food as well. She sent us lots of pictures when we were last away and it was great to see the girls so happy. So much better than traditional kennels.
We've been using Happy Hound Hotel for our dog for a few years now and we highly recommend this place. We love receiving photos and updates about our dog and it's reassuring to know he's having a wonderful time and he's settled. We love the outdoor area and the clean rooms provided for dogs. We think of the Happy Hound Hotel a holiday home for our dog where he has a chance to play with other dogs and run around. We are confident he's well looked after as as he will be at home. Please book well in advance as the demand is high for such a good service.
The Happy Hound Hotel have been looking after our much loved dogs for a good number of years now. Our first dog had boarded in a few different places both in Ireland and Scotland but never seemed to enjoy the experience - the Happy Hound Hotel was just a world apart. He was so relaxed and happy and as an owner you know when they're really content and they happily skip back when they get to visit again. I was worried about leaving our second dog but things couldn't have been better. The premises are beautifully decorated and kitted out with lovely beds, sofas, decor - the only difference to other hotels are the very happy dogs enjoying the amenities instead of humans! More important than that, Elaine, Andy and family are so good to the dogs. Quinn has been treated like one of the family and even the children remember the dogs by name and the dogs are as pleased to see them. The dogs get fantastic walks in the stunning surrounding landscape and the genuine loving care that you would give your own dog. Make sure you book early as they're rightly very popular and fill up much more quickly than most places. I think everyone who's used them turns into a returning customer for life!
Calvin our cockapoo has been going to the Happy Hound Hotel for his summer holidays and other short breaks since we got him three years ago. He’s always well looked after and happy there. We didn’t want to put him in kennels and this is a great alternative. The dogs have much more freedom and a comfy room to stay in. Elaine the owner is lovely. She sends us photos while we are on holiday. Calvin always looks happy running about the fields. Calvin always looks well cared for when we pick him up at the end of our break. Highly recommended!
We left our 4 year old cavachon with Elaine and Andy for 2 weeks .It’s the first time we’ve ever left her and Elaine sent us pictures of her throughout her stay . We could see how happy and well cared for she was . I wouldn’t ever hesitate to leave her with Elaine and Andy , she had a ball and we had peace of mind .
We have been a regular user of the Happy Hound for 7 years now and my dog loves it. Elaine & Andy are great & I have no worries about leaving my boy with them. They have the dog’s best interest at heart and make their stay with them comfortable & fun. On my summer holls away I get photos & regular up dates on how he is doing & I think I am missing him more than he misses me. I would definitely recommend the Happy Hound hotel. We would be lost without them. X
My dog loves his stays here, flys out the car and doesn't look back. Great secure areas for dogs to run about.
The best dog place ever. I have not booked holiday if I can’t get my girls into the Happy Hiund Hotel. They love it. It’s like a home from home and I feel really safe leaving them there. Elaine is really lovely and cares about the dogs she looks after. Highly recommend her and also the dog grooming business she does too.
I have used Happy Hounds for both day care and boarding for my 2 year old Labrador, Max, since he was about 6 months. He loves going there and is well walked and looked after. Elaine and her husband are so gentle with the dogs and have taught max several commands which have helped us at his feeding times. I have recommended Happy Hounds to several people and will continue to do so in the future 🐶
