Our pack - 4 Huskies, Cocker Spaniel and nervous rescue dog have just spent 24 hours in the capable hands of Jill and the team. Dogs had a great time, lots of walks, kept us up to date with videos and pictures, dogs are now absolutely knackered! Highly recommended and the pack will be back More...

I normally always feel so nervous about leaving my two Pomeranians when I go on holiday as I’ve had bad experiences before. I used Paws and Claws Countryside Retreat for 12 nights and I’ve never felt so relaxed whilst away. Jill provides an absolutely amazing service and clearly takes a lot of pride in her work and business. She’s kept me posted and sent pictures and videos so I have felt like I have seen them whilst being away. Would 100% recommend, my two pooches have clearly had an amazing time as they were reluctant to get in the car after their amazing holiday too! They had a trip to the groomers prior to going to the retreat and they have came back in perfect condition (I say this because I have had them back from previous kennels in a poor condition). Can’t wait to use Paws and Claws again in the future, thanks Jill and your team ☺️ More...

My little dogs absolutely loves coming here it's an amazing place for them to stay whilst on holiday or even at work. They go on regular walks in the country side and where they sleep is better than most 5* hotels! ! I would highly recommend using Paws & Claws Countryside retreat for your fur babies. More...

Would never send my dogs anywhere else. I trust Jill completely and my Bleu is always happy to see her. Safe, hygienic facilities and grounds and plenty of space for your dogs to play. A great place to begin dogs with socialising, and to continue socialising any dogs who are used to it. You also get regular daily updates of how you dog is to stop you worrying! Paws and Claws is the only local place I would ever recommend as this countryside retreat is the only place I am 100% sure my dogs are getting looked after ❤️🐶 More...

I was very reluctant to leave my dog with anyone for the very first time. Paws & Claws was suggested and my dog absolutely loves it, sometimes a little to much and doesn’t want to come home haha. Jill is great & I know my little fur baby is getting well looked after and meeting new friends! I will continue to use Paws & Claws and couldn’t recommend a better place for your animals! More...

Jill is a fantastic carer for your dogs. We received updates throughout the care of Millie who can be difficult when socialising. Because of this we have never left Millie in kennels but this was absolutely no problem for Jill as she told us that she can accommodate either way. Millie absolutely loved her time at the countryside, she was well walked and fed and come home a happy little dog - and we have booked again in November. Would highly recommend More...

I can not recommend Jill enough to look after your fur baby’s, I’m so picky about who I leave Neville with! He’s always so excited about “going to see Jill and George” and comes back with a full tummy ready for bed. I get updates throughout the day on what Neville is up to he just loves being there. Massive thank you to Jill and her team! Love Loren and Neville More...
