"As dog-lovers ourselves, we can’t wait to meet new furry-friends and offer them the best doggy holiday in a safe, loving host home.”

Whether we want encouragement to exercise more, or just want to have cuddles on the sofa, no one can deny the value of having a dog in our lives. We all know that dogs have a wonderful effect on our physical well-being, but they can positively impact our mental health too.

They can reduce stress, anxiety, and depression and provide unfailing companionship for those who are alone or feeling isolated, especially post-pandemic.
