View of the Dog Den from the Mud Room, where we can accomodate 4 dogs comfortably or 3 dogs luxuriously. They can also use the kitchen if they wish, this means we have 3 areas of varying temperatures to suit dogs of all breeds when home boarding.
View from Dog Den looking through to Mud Room which can accomodate 2 dogs with ample space, and provides the coolest area for breeds with thicker or double coats.

"We trust Jackie to take care of our furry princess, she's always happy to go with her. Home boarding is completely stress free, she's spent several days with Jax, weekends, daily cares, even a really long two weeks we were away on holidays. Never had a problem, Jax gives us total peace of mind, absolutely recommended." Mr Mugica
"Jackie is wonderful with our crazy Nox! He absolutely looooves her and I can feel super relaxed when he's out with her as I know he's well looked after, won't get up to any nonsense, and most importantly: has such fun! Proof: when he gets home, he looks like the happiest dog in the world; all he wants is some cuddles and... sleep. Thanks very much for your wonderful help, Jackie!" Ms Birth
"Thanks to Jackie for looking after my 2 cats when on holiday. It's great to know that I can go away and leave them at home being well looked after." Mr Newell
"Picked Tia up this morning she's had an amazing time, been asleep ever since we got home (very unlike her). The pictures were great and it's lovely to know that she's been so well taken care of while we were away. Can not praise hounds of fun enough, thank you for everything" Mrs Barter
“Well what can I say other than THANK YOU! I have two huskies, one of which came through rescue and can be (although is getting better) difficult to deal with. We have tried many dog sitters and through no fault of their own have not been able to take our rescue. Well, we have found our saviour! The Hounds of Fun were outstanding in understanding and delivering on both of our dogs needs, quirks, odd food requirements and sometimes difficulties. The photos and reports given throughout and at the end of the stay made us so happy our dogs were clearly having as much of a holiday as us! I cannot recommend them more highly, and hope to keep up our visits, as I am sure our dogs missed their two huskies. Again, THANK YOU!” Mr & Mrs Brown
“My cat loves Jackie when she comes to look after her, and I know that she is being looked after really well when I have to leave her to go on holiday. It's great to have peace of mind that your pet, and house is in good hands.” Mrs Watts
“Jackie has been the most amazing dog walker for our dog to the extent that as soon as he hears her voice at the door he arrives, tail wagging and keen to go out for a walk. Her service is second to none. She really loves dogs.” Mr & Mrs Wheeller
"Well Shiney came home after a week with Jackie and slept solidly from the moment she got home until the following morning. To me this is a good sign that she has been having a fab time! I would not hesitate to use Hounds of Fun again. It was nice to see little Facebook updates while we were away to see just how much fun she was having." Mrs Brennan
