🐾 OUR STORY 🐾
People often ask what makes Paws and Pillows and Pampered Pooches different.
The answer is simple.
We’re dog owners first.
We live in neighbouring villages, share the same family values, and believe that our dogs aren’t “just dogs , they’re family.
My journey began after losing my beloved Poppy. Our heart s were broken, and although we had recently welcomed Florence into our family, there was still a huge gap in as lives. As we planned a holiday, I searched for somewhere I felt comfortable leaving her.
I couldn’t find it.
I wanted more than dog boarding. I wanted a home-from-home. Somewhere I would trust with my own dog.
That’s when Paws and Pillows was born.
Then Debbie contacted me about boarding her two beautiful dogs. From our very first conversation, we realised we shared exactly the same vision: caring for dogs as if they were our own.
Fast forward to today, and Paws and Pillows and Pampered Pooches work together to provide loving, family-based care from two trusted homes.
The biggest compliment came when I left Florence with Debbie The updates, reassurance, and care Florence received gave me complete peace of mind. I collected a happy dog and knew we had created something special.
❤️ We don’t just fill spaces.
❤️ We don’t take every dog.
❤️ We put the wellbeing of every dog first.
If a dog isn’t the right fit for our homes or our own dogs, we’ll always be honest.
Why? Because every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
Together we offer:
🐾 Home-from-home boarding
🐾 Day care and emergency care (subject to availability)
🐾 Flexible arrangements across both homes
🐾 Transport between homes with owners permission and policies .
🐾 Regular updates and photos
🐾 Lots of love, cuddles and individual attention whetever you choose .
Individual booking forms
Meet and greet at the locations that you choose , if there is a cross over, there would be 2 meet and greets .
Please note that Polices and procedures do vary at Paws and Pillows and Pampered Pooches.
We’re proud that what started as a conversation between two dog-loving women has grown into a trusted partnership built on friendship, experience, and a genuine love for dogs.
Because to us, they’re not pets.
They’re family. ❤️🐾
