About the Kennels

All dogs are insured whilst in our care. Every care will be taken with your pet, however illness, accidents or loss can never be entirely ruled out.

We endeavour to avoid this in every way possible and to take whatever action deemed necessary for the welfare and comfort of your pet, including veterinary attention. All dogs are covered by our pet insurance. However this does not cover pre-existing conditions.

All pets to be boarded must hold a current vaccination certificate, which we will require to see when arriving. Unfortunately we are unable to accept any dog into the kennels without this. All boarding charges are to be paid in full when you arrive with your dog for boarding, this will be for the original dates booked.

Charges are per day/ part day and include:
– Heating
– Twice daily exercise
– Most foods (our policy is to always feed your dog the diet that he/she receives at home.)

A non-refundable deposit of £40.00 per dog/per week booked, is required to confirm your booking,

Cheques made payable to:  Sweet Turf Boarding Kennels. 

We also have an onsite grooming facility that you could take advantage of during your pets stay. This would be an additional cost depending on the breed of dog.

Exercise & Feeding

We have a daily routine that we find all dogs seem to enjoy. We start with an early morning walk – taken individually, where a general check over of your dog takes place. Whilst each kennel is cleaned, breakfast is prepared.

Weather permitting we try to allow a free run in our grassed exercise area at lunchtime. Again in the afternoon, we go for another walk followed by evening meal. Walks take place along quiet country roads and bridal paths.

We provide the majority of popular dog foods and always maintain your dogs normal feeding routine. However if we do not stock your dog’s type of food, or if you feed a fresh meat diet, then we ask you to provide your own. We will, of course, reduce the cost accordingly.
