About Michelle

As a genuine dog lover with 2 wonderful fur babies of my own, I understand how stressful and overwhelming it can feel to be apart from your pooch.
Let me ease concerns by offering your VIP a loving home from home, full of fun, comfort and adventure.

I live in the beautiful village of Longniddry with my husband, 2 little dogs and our old cat.

After years of caring for friends, family and my own dogs, I decided to offer home boarding for guest dogs and haven't looked back. We thoroughly enjoy meeting new friends and welcoming back our returning friends who have become part of the family.


Your VIP will be lovingly welcomed into our home and family. They can enjoy a clean, smoke free, very dog friendly detached house with large fully fenced and gated private garden with lots of space to explore.
With beautiful beaches, fields, woods and parks less than a 10 minute walk away, we spend a lot of time having outdoor adventures.
What could be better after a lovely long beach walk than snuggling on the sofas with cozy blankets (and on colder days, hot water bottles) or stretching out by the log fire for a well earned snooze.

As a dog parent myself, I'm aware we can suffer separation anxiety when not with our fur babies.
To ease your mind, I’ll send you daily updates with photos & videos of your pooches adventures to let you see how they are getting on, leaving you free to relax.

🐾 SERVICES & TARUFFS 🐾

Home boarding is my full time career which is why I'm able to dedicate all of my attention to the dogs in my care.

I am passionate about providing guests with a loving homely stay.


🐾 I provide home boarding for small breed dogs

🐾 I board a maximum of 2 guest dogs to ensure individual needs are met

🐾 I am fully licensed and insured


DOGGY BOARDING (24 hours)
7 days a week

To give your pooch time to feel comfortable and settled: 

🐾 Check in is between 8am - 12noon. 

🐾 Check out is before or at the same time as check in. Daycare is available to book if a later check out is required. Daycare finishes at 4.30pm.



TINY TOTS

Puppies aged 12 weeks - 12 months

Boarding - £50 per night 

Puppies are boarded without any other guest dogs which enables me to provide them with the extra special care, attention and training they require.


TWEENIES TO GOLDEN YEARS

Doggies aged 1 year - senior 

Boarding - £28 per night 

🎄CHRISTMAS🎄 & 🎉 NEW YEAR 🎉

A supplement of £10.00 will apply to all rates between 23rd December - 2nd January.



THE IMPORTANT BIT

To keep everyone safe and happy in my care, I'm afraid I am unable to offer care for dogs who show ANY form of aggression toward dogs or people.

Honesty is very important to enable me to provide the best possible care for your VIP. Kindly advise me of any quirks or behavioural problems (including toileting, biting, nipping, excessive barking issues and separation anxiety) your pouch may have prior to arranging a meet & greet or making a booking. 

To keep everyone healthy I ask that all doggies are up to date with their:

🐾 Vaccinations 

🐾 Flea, worming & tick treatment 

🐾 Fully toilet trained - no longer using puppy pads (over the age of 6 months.)

🐾 Neutered / spayed (over the age of 6 months.)

PLEASE NOTE -
We have an old cat who has her own dog free area of the house with private access to her own outdoor space, meaning she won’t come into physical contact with your pooch during their stay.

If you would like more information, have any questions or would like to book a meet and greet / viewing, please feel free to drop me a message.

I hope to reply to all messages within a few hours but as I am likely to be tending to the doggies, I appreciate your understanding if it takes a little longer. 😊

We look forward to welcoming your pooch into our pack. 🐾 🐶 🐾

Michelle was a wonderful pet sitter for our Cavapoochon, Pippin. This was Pippin’s first time away from us so it was really important that he was left with someone who we trusted and felt comfortable with.

Pippin had the most wonderful holiday with Michelle. We received communication every day and could see how he was getting on and that he had settled in well. Pippin was kept busy during his time with Michelle with walks and he loved being around the other dogs in the home.

I feel fortunate that we found Michelle as it is lovely to be able to leave Pippin and know he is really very well looked after and he’s happy being part of the pack.

Teddy had yet another wonderful stay with Michelle, Nick, Bracken & Bramble. Nothing is too much bother for Michelle. Teddy was extremely well looked after and entertained. He looked so happy in the videos and photographs she sent and he absolutely loved being out and about with the boys and other dogs staying. So glad we found her! We couldn’t ask for anymore.
