Dog boarding
Debbie, 2024-09-25

I was usure about using a third party agency to book boarding for my Daisy a Labrador. At first the cost seems so much compared to my usual kennels. However, Daisy having much more human contact and care by someone as calming as Alex compared to noisy kennels with only brief human contact was my chief concern and the value of that is so high.

Alex is very caring, and the walks she had with him and the other dogs looked beautiful. The dog ‘Chalet’ is brilliant with it’s own piece of fenced in ‘garden for the dogs to chill out in or play - even a garden swing in good weather for them to use. The location is peaceful and really nice with so many walks nearby. Daisy came back to us chilled out and happy - believe me I can tell, coming out of the kennels she would be breaking her neck to get into the car, panting heavily, I took that to be her having missed us and the barking of the other dogs when we arrived building her into a frenzy. We arrived to collect her and instead of multiple dogs barking all was quiet, we went with Alex to the doggie lodgings and everything was calm, she was excited to see us but not frenzied as before. Fantastic!. Alex was sending me updates and photos of Daisy and the other dogs regularly with comments on how she was getting on (including one of her tucking into a nuckle bone). 10/10 Alex. 🙏🏻

We are so pleased we have found Alex and Jo’s place for our 3 yr old Vizsla Freddy to spend time when we are away. Every thing is great from care, fun, walks, time with other dog guests, toys, human time, comfort, communication with plenty of photos, security and peace of mind for us. Cannot recommend Alex and Jo enough.
