A calm, caring home where your dog's comfort and safety comes first
Your dog lives with us as part of the family. They have their own cosy room to sleep in, complete with soft dog beds and even a full-sized bed if they prefer a little extra comfort. They have free run of the house during the day; they choose where to rest, if they want company, if they want quiet time. We believe every dog deserves to rest how they feel happiest - whether that’s curled up in their own bed or snuggled into a blanket on the sofa.
Our enclosed garden is fully secure, with double-gated access to prevent any accidental slips or escapes. We also use AirTag-style trackers on each guest’s ID tag for added peace of mind. There’s an inner porch too, so one door always remains closed, keeping everyone safe as we come and go.
We share our home with Honey, our spaniel, who has her occasional bursts of silliness, and Pixie, our playful puppy. Most of the time they’re content to snooze the day away while I work, but they do have lively moments that bring a touch of joy and gentle energy into the house. Lilly used to look at them with that familiar raised eyebrow and sigh - as if to say, “Really?” - and her calm presence still sets the tone for how we care for every dog that stays with us.
When it comes to walks, we tailor everything to each dog’s needs and abilities. There are gentle pavement routes for slow sniffing strolls, shady stream paths for curious explorers, and open fields for relaxed wanders, or gentle games and sniffs in the garden. Every dog enjoys two periods of exercise a day, always at their own pace.
Inside, the atmosphere is calm and homely. There’s a log burner for snoozy evenings, a sunny window seat that’s perfect for watching the world go by, and plenty of enrichment toys like snuffle mats and puzzles for curious noses.
Treats are healthy and simple — blueberries, carrots, raspberries, or a few pieces of high-quality kibble — all given only according to the owner’s instructions.
Every part of our care is guided by what you tell us. Lilly taught us how much even the smallest change to a diet or medication can matter, so we follow your routines closely and with care.
At Lilly’s Bespoke Boarding, our home really is their home - safe, nurturing, and filled with the small comforts that make all the difference.
