Our approach
Care built around the dog, not a standard timetable
A stay should not require an unnecessary diet change. We prefer the dog’s familiar food and written instructions, with calm feeding arrangements and careful observation of appetite.
Familiar routines
Meals, medication, toilet breaks and sleep are organised around the information supplied in the dog’s profile.
Instructions followed carefully
Medication can be administered according to clear written directions; veterinary diagnosis remains with the owner and vet.
Clear communication
Instructions, requests, prices and updates remain together in the account, reducing uncertainty for everyone.

Frequently asked questions
Practical clarity before you decide
If your question is not answered here, email us before submitting a request.
Ask a questionCan my dog keep eating its usual food?
Yes. Familiar food and a normal schedule are generally preferred. Record portions, allergies and instructions clearly in the profile.
Can you accommodate allergies or a special diet?
Often yes, when instructions are complete and the arrangement is practically safe. Discuss complex or medical diets before booking.
Can you administer medication?
Medication can be given according to clear written instructions. We do not diagnose conditions or replace veterinary advice.
Should I bring my dog’s own food?
That is usually preferred. Clearly labelled portions reduce change and help us follow the familiar routine accurately.
