🐾 2026 price increase🐾

As many of you know, I pour my heart into making sure every dog in my care feels safe, happy, and completely at home 🐶💛
From long woodland walks to endless cuddles on the sofa, I’m committed to giving every dog the same love and attention they receive from you.

From 1st January 2026, there will be a price increase to reflect rising costs and to ensure I can continue providing the highest standard of care your dogs deserve 🌿✨

Here’s what you can always expect when your pup stays with us:
⭐️ 5 star licensed & fully insured
🎓 Ofqual Level 3 qualified in canine health & first aid
🌳 Beautiful countryside walks right on our doorstep. We live within a country park!
🚶‍♀️ At least 2 walks a day (often more!)
🏡 Cosy, family environment with no more than 4 dogs at a time
💞 Unlimited cuddles, playtime & individual attention
🌼 Access to our large, secure garden and never crated unless it’s part of their usual routine

Your dogs truly become part of our family when they stay here, and I’m so grateful for the love and trust you’ve shown this year 🥰

🐕 Book early & save!
Any bookings for 2026 made before 1st January will be honoured at this years prices, so it’s a great time to get your dates secured.

We still have availability in November & December for meet & greets and trial stays. Come and see where your dog will be staying, and book their trial stay — it’s the best way to make sure they’re comfortable, confident, and ready for their next visit🐾

One of the joys of what I do is seeing lasting friendships form 🐾 These two doodles, though from different families, have become the best of friends this year. Whether they’re chasing each other in the garden or snuggled up after a busy day, their bond is something truly special 💛 ”

🎉🐾 Officially 5⭐ rated! 🐾🎉

I’m so proud to share that having had my license renewal after a fantastic first year in business, Helen’s Canine Care has been awarded a 5 STAR rating by the council! 🌟

This is the highest rating possible, and it means so much to know that our commitment to providing safe, loving, and high quality care for every dog who stays with us has been recognised.

A huge thank you to all my wonderful customers (and their amazing pups!) for your trust and support over the past year. I couldn’t have done it without you 💛

Here’s to another year of wagging tails, happy paws, and five star stays! 🐶✨

Boris the Bulgarian Shepherd mix is still looking for his forever home! Can anyone give him the loving home he deserves? ❤️

He is around 8 weeks old. Has been raised in a very lovely couples garden in Bulgaria, who let his mum nurse him & his brother there for safety. He has a lovely temperament, travels in the car well, is great around dogs, cats, chickens! Is fully vaccinated, flead & wormed with his own passport!

He was initially believed to be deaf but his latest vets visit suggests this is not the case. He was unbelievably well behaved at the vets & very calm. They do not have concerns around his hearing (maybe he is just stubborn 😂!)

I met him a few weeks back and he really is adorable! He even did yoga next to me ❤️ If I could have brought him home myself I would.

🚨 Important Reminder for Dog Owners!

We’re seeing a growing number of last minute requests from worried owners who’ve been let down by unlicensed dog boarders. Often just days before their trip.

While it might seem convenient or cheaper to book through social media or word of mouth, using unlicensed boarders comes with serious risks:

🐾 No inspections or insurance
🐾 No training or emergency protocols
🐾 No accountability if plans fall through
🐾 Often not compliant with local regulations

When you book with a licensed and insured boarder, you’re choosing peace of mind. Your dog’s safety, happiness, and wellbeing are our top priorities and we’re fully inspected, regulated, and passionate about what we do.

✅ Always ask to see a license
✅ Check reviews and insurance
✅ Book in advance to avoid stress

Let’s work together to keep our dogs safe and well cared for 🐶
