Boarding close to home

If you live in or around Ashford, your dog stays just a few minutes up the road. That makes the free meet and greet, a quick drop-off or adding an extra night easy to arrange, and your dog keeps the same local walks they already know.

What dog owners say

“Our golden retriever, Maverick, absolutely loves boarding with Tom – he greets Tom with pure joy every time he sees him! Tom always does such a good job taking care of Maverick and keeping him engaged, and we always come back to a happy and tired dog.”
Delle Chan · Kent · Maverick (Golden Retriever)
“We met Tom through dog training and he was honestly the best trainer ever. He would send us 5-minute videos showing exactly what he was doing with Bisous, whether it was lead pulling, recall, or even things like sit and stay, and coached us through everything.”
Freddie Berridge · Kent · Bisous
