Our Dog Boarding Services

We take pride in offering a unique dog boarding experience that combines professional care with the warmth of a family home. Our boarding services are exclusively available to our regular dog walking clients, ensuring that the dogs are already comfortable and familiar with their caregivers.

Home-Based Boarding in a Cozy Setting

Dogs stay with their regular walkers in a home-like environment, ensuring comfort and familiarity. This home-based approach makes your dog feel more at ease compared to traditional kennel boarding.

Limited Capacity for Personalized Care

We maintain a low number of dogs per home to provide individualised attention. This allows us to deliver a tailored experience that meets each dog’s unique needs.

Routine Consistency and Custom Care

We match your dog’s daily routine to their usual schedule, including feeding, exercise, and any special care requirements.

Experienced and Trusted Local Caregivers

Our team consists of experienced dog caregivers who know how to handle dogs of different temperaments and requirements, providing a nurturing environment for every pet.

As dog lovers and dedicated professionals, we are committed to offering the best possible boarding experience for your pet. Our emphasis on personalised care and professional service ensures your dog will feel right at home.

The Benefits of Our Dog Boarding Services in North London and North West London

Personalized Attention for Each Dog

We understand that every dog has unique needs and preferences. Our dog boarding service provides customised care that includes:

  • Individualised Feeding Plans: We stick to your dog’s regular feeding schedule and accommodate any special dietary needs.

  • Medication Administration: Our experienced caregivers administer any necessary medications safely and as directed.

What Sets Our Dog Boarding Apart in North London and North West London?

A Home-Like Environment, Not a Kennel

At H&H Dog, we believe that a home-like environment is far superior to traditional kennel boarding. Our unique approach ensures that dogs stay in actual family homes, not crowded kennels, which significantly enhances their comfort and happiness. This means:

Comfortable Living Space: Dogs have access to designated sleeping areas within a home setting, complete with cosy beds and familiar comforts like blankets and toys.

Family Atmosphere: Dogs are integrated into the daily life of the household, providing them with a sense of belonging and security.

Access to Dog-Proofed Play Areas: Our homes feature secure indoor and outdoor spaces where dogs can play safely and freely under supervision.

This home-based boarding model ensures that your dog enjoys a relaxing and enriching experience, akin to being at home, rather than feeling confined in a kennel environment.

Low-Dog-Volume for Quality Care

We are committed to maintaining a low ratio of dogs per home, allowing us to provide high-quality, personalised care. By limiting the number of dogs we board at any given time, we ensure:

Close Supervision: Each dog receives continuous attention and monitoring, ensuring their safety and well-being.

Individualised Attention: Our caregivers can focus on the specific needs and preferences of each dog, providing a tailored experience.

Enhanced Socialisation: Dogs can interact and play with a select group of familiar canine companions, promoting healthy socialisation in a controlled environment.

This low-dog-volume approach allows us to deliver the exceptional level of care and attention that your pet deserves, setting us apart from more impersonal boarding facilities.

Regular Exercise and Enrichment Activities in Local Areas

Ensuring that your dog remains active and engaged during their stay is a top priority for us. Our boarding service includes a variety of exercise and enrichment activities designed to keep your dog physically and mentally stimulated:

Daily Walks: Dogs enjoy two long walks each day in local parks or green spaces, offering them ample opportunity to explore and enjoy the outdoors.

Play Sessions: Interactive play sessions with toys and games keep dogs entertained and engaged, promoting their overall well-being.

Training and Enrichment: Optional training activities and enrichment exercises are available to keep your dog mentally sharp and challenged.

By providing regular exercise and mental stimulation, we ensure that your dog remains happy, healthy, and content throughout their stay with us.

My new puppy Ronnie and I met with Roland today for some training and recall. He was so helpful and calm so was a good experience for us both seeing Ronnie return to me on recall and being more confident around other people and dogs in the park. Also shared useful links for toys/leads etc which discussed would help Ronnie and he would enjoy. Would highly recommend 👌

I had a first session with my Shiba Inu on May 24th, and the experience with Roland was fantastic. He came highly recommended by a friend who had an equally positive experience a few years ago. Our two-hour session in the park focused on recall training. Remarkably, my dog went from being non-responsive to starting to respond to my calls and follow me around the park. The progress exceeded my expectations. Roland's detailed and considerate approach in explaining all the important information made a significant difference. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate dog trainer.

We bought a Cavapoo at 10 weeks. Roland came in within the first 48hrs to our home and put our minds at ease. There were lots of concerns (being a first time dog owner). Roland was incredibly kind and generous with his time and kept advice simple and relatable. Will certainly use again at next stage in dogs life and no hesitation to recommend to friends/family. Huge thanks Roland! Lavan, Nisha, Isla, Kai and Milo

We hired Roland to help us with our Swiss Shepherd Puppy. He came and did a house visit quite early on and gave us a plenty of good advice and helped a lot with settle training. We then followed up with recall and loose lead lessons and a lot of what we learnt during these sessions was also really helpful and made us much more confident with walking the dog. We'd happily recommend Roland to anyone and would definitely go back to him in the future with any new problems. I'm sure the dog would be happy to see him if nothing else!

Roland is amazing! I had a session with him and my GSD when she was young due to reactivity towards people from a young age. I took everything he taught me away and my girl is over 2 now and my goodness what a difference! She’s never going to be 100% trusting of strangers but before she would react from far away, Now we can walk past people without her reacting all by using the techniques Roland gave me! It started improving quite rapidly and just kept on reinforcing it. I always recommend them if I meet people that need help with training! 😀

Absolutely fantastic experience. We are so pleased we found Roland who certainly knows his stuff. Our GSD puppy responded so well and he has turned me from a nervous owner to brimming with confidence. All the reviews speak for themselves but you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much Roland
