It is the owner's responsibility to ensure that all information provided at the time of enquiry and before the start of the booking is accurate and up to date. If a dog arrives and does not meet these boarding requirements, we reserve the right to refuse admission or cancel the booking. In these circumstances, our standard cancellation policy will apply.

No Shows
If your dog does not arrive on the agreed booking date without prior notice, the full booking fee remains payable.
Meet & Greet
All new clients must attend a meet and greet before a booking can be confirmed. We reserve the right to decline bookings where we feel we cannot safely or suitably meet a dog's needs.
Health & Welfare Requirements
For the safety and wellbeing of all dogs in our care:
-
Dogs must be fully vaccinated before boarding.
-
Dogs must be up to date with flea and worming treatments.
-
Owners must disclose any medical conditions, ongoing treatments or dietary requirements before the stay.
-
Owners must disclose any behavioural concerns, including aggression, anxiety, resource guarding, escaping, excessive barking or any history that may affect the safety or wellbeing of other dogs or handlers.
-
We reserve the right to refuse admission or terminate a booking if a dog's behaviour presents a risk to people or other animals. In such circumstances, no refund will be given.
Veterinary Care
Should your dog become ill or injured during their stay:
-
We will make every reasonable effort to contact you immediately.
-
If emergency veterinary treatment is required and you cannot be contacted, you authorise us to seek appropriate veterinary care on your behalf.
-
All veterinary fees, medication costs and associated expenses incurred during your dog's stay remain the owner's responsibility.
Collection & Late Collection
Dogs must be collected on the agreed date and within the agreed collection time unless alternative arrangements have been made in advance.
Late collections may incur additional boarding charges at our standard daily rate.
Liability
Every reasonable care will be taken to ensure your dog's safety, comfort and wellbeing throughout their stay. However, dogs remain the responsibility of their owners, and while every effort is made to provide a safe environment, we cannot accept liability for illness, injury, loss or death unless caused by our proven negligence.
Damage
Owners remain responsible for any damage caused by their dog to property, equipment or facilities where the damage results from undisclosed behavioural issues or deliberate destructive behaviour.
