About Scruffs Home Boarding & Day Care

Welcome to Scruffs Home Boarding & Day Care — a bespoke, luxury home-from-home dog boarding and professional dog day care service for owners who want exceptional care, comfort, and attention for their dogs. We specialise in a calm, safe, fully licensed environment where your dog receives high-quality care, personalised routines, and all the love they would enjoy at home.

A Luxury Home-From-Home Alternative to Kennels

Scruffs offers a refined, relaxed alternative to traditional dog kennels. Set within a warm, peaceful family home, our dog home boarding service is intentionally designed around quality over quantity.
We welcome only a small number of dogs at any one time. This ensures:

• Individual attention

• Low-stress, predictable routines

• A safe environment for social, calm, well-matched dogs

• A truly personalised experience based on each dog’s needs

For nervous or first-time boarders, our gentle, attentive approach helps them settle quickly and feel secure. For confident, sociable dogs, Scruffs provides a fun, enriching environment with plenty of affection and structure.

Personalised Dog Care Tailored to Your Dog

Every dog has their own personality, preferences, and routine — and we build their experience around that. Whether your dog joins us for dog day care or overnight home boarding, each day is carefully balanced with:

• Structured walks suited to age, fitness and temperament

• Enrichment activities such as puzzles, scent games, and play

• Rest and relaxation time in a calm environment

• One-to-one affection and companionship

• Positive reinforcement and gentle handling at all times

We work with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. From playful puppies to senior companions, anxious rescues to confident adventurers — every dog is supported, understood, and cared for with patience and kindness.

Fully Licensed, Insured, and Professionally Experienced

Scruffs is a fully licensed and insured dog home boarding provider, giving owners complete peace of mind. Our extensive hands-on experience means we understand dog behaviour, body language, group dynamics, and the emotional needs of every dog in our care.

We closely monitor:

• Feeding routines

• Sleep patterns

• Social interactions

• Behaviour changes

• Stress signals and comfort levels

This allows us to create a safe, positive environment where dogs feel settled and secure — whether they are staying for a single day or several nights.

A Safe, Calm Environment That Feels Like Home

Our home is designed with dogs in mind. Unlike busy kennels or commercial facilities, Scruffs provides a peaceful, comfortable setting where dogs can rest, play, and bond with a consistent caregiver. This reduces stress, encourages stable routines, and ensures each dog receives uninterrupted care and supervision.

We believe dogs thrive when they feel part of a family — and that’s exactly what we provide.
