Dog Boarding FAQs
What is home dog boarding?
Home dog boarding means your dog stays in a sitter's home rather than a kennel. They become part of the family, enjoying home comforts, regular walks, and one-on-one attention in a stress-free environment.
How is boarding different from kennels?
Unlike kennels, home boarding provides a family environment. Your dog sleeps in a real home, receives individual attention, maintains their normal routine, and experiences less stress. Many dogs find kennels overwhelming due to barking and unfamiliar surroundings.
What should I pack for my dog's stay?
Bring your dog's regular food (to avoid upset tummies), their bed or blanket (familiar scents are comforting), favourite toys, any medications, and their lead and collar. Most hosts appreciate items that smell like home.
Will my dog be with other dogs?
This varies by host. Some only take one dog at a time for exclusive attention. Others host small groups of compatible dogs. You can filter by preference and discuss arrangements before booking.
How much does dog boarding cost in the UK?
Dog boarding typically costs £25-50 per night, depending on location, host experience, and services included. Me and My Doggy charges zero booking fees to dog owners, so you pay only what the host charges.
