What is Home Boarding?

Home Boarding is when your dog stays in a warm, loving family home and not in a lonely, strange dog kennel. Your pet will stay with one of our carers on a bespoke basis in their home. We will introduce you to the right family based on your location and your pet’s needs. You and your pet will meet your host family before the booking starts to make sure everyone is happy!

Unlike dog boarding kennels, your dog will receive one to one attention from the carer and their family and taken care of as if your dog was their family pet – it will never be left alone but always with the family.

Your dog will be the only animal in our carer’s home so will receive undivided attention from our carer and avoid any possible occurrence of fighting or aggression from other dogs. All your pet’s usual routines will be maintained including: walking, feeding and sleeping arrangements at no extra cost.

Your dog will not be exposed to any risk of cross-infection which sadly is all too common in boarding kennels or to the stressful situation of other dogs constantly barking, whining and howling.

By using a home boarding service, as opposed to a pet sitting service, you can leave your home locked and secure without worry and without having to give door keys or alarm codes to relative strangers.

Why Home from Home?

Home from Home was the first company to offer this very special service in the UK. We are the premier company in the UK specifically offering home boarding. We offer home boarding in Central and Greater London and throughout Essex, Kent, East and West Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire.

We have a register of over 400 very carefully vetted carers and over 45,000 clients who have used our service repeatedly over many years. All our carers have been interviewed, their gardens inspected and then selected for their suitability to look after your beloved pet(s) and offer a safe, loving home. Everyone who works at the agency is a dog owner. When you use Home from Home, you know that your carer is fully supported at all times by a professional and dedicated team.

We genuinely care about making the booking process as stress-free as possible and your pets’ welfare is paramount.

We insist that you meet your carer prior to the booking starting so you can see where and with whom your dog will be staying. This gives you, your carer and your dog an opportunity to get to know one another in advance. If you are not totally happy with the carer we have chosen for you we can offer an alternative or give you a full refund – guaranteed.

Registration is free with us and all our rates are reasonable and transparent – there are no hidden extras. You will not need to pay anything until we have one of our carers in place and you are happy to proceed.

As a repeat client, you will be able to request the same carer that has looked after your pet before. We aim to maintain continuity of care for your pet; stability and familiarity are so important to minimise stress for you and your pet.
