🐶 Pre-Boarding Assessment – What You Need to Know:
To ensure each guest enjoys a happy, safe, and relaxed experience, all new dogs over six months old staying more than two nights must complete a once-off pre-boarding assessment prior to their holiday. This allows us to evaluate your dog's individual needs, personality, behaviours, comfort levels, and compatibility with our environment.
🧠 We observe traits such as:
- Sociability & interaction style
- Energy & play drive
- Confidence, curiosity or anxiety
- Feeding behaviour & aggression risk
💬 Assessments are carried out without owner presence to reflect the true holiday environment and to avoid any anxiety triggers or over-dependence.
🔍 Choose the assessment best suited to your dog's personality type:
🐕 Option 1 - Daytime Assessment
Ideal for sociable confident dogs with successful previous boarding/daycare experience. Duration: 4 hours approx
Fee: €30 per dog. €20 for each additional dog.
🐕 Option 2 ~ Overnight Assessment
Ideal for nervous anxious or first time boarding /daycare guests. Duration: Overnight
Fee: €40 per dog. €20 for each additional dog.
📅 Assessments are by appointment only, so please contact us to schedule yours well ahead of your planned boarding dates.
