About Us
Welcome to Thirlmere House Dog Boarding! We are a husband and wife team - Roger and Kate - who run a home from home dog boarding business from our victorian home, Thirlmere House in Amblecote, Stourbridge.
As a dog loving and owning couple, we found it difficult to find the right kind of care for our dog Ozzie when we were away. We tried kennels and then pet visits,but none of these options felt right, personal, and most of all a good experience for our dog. There is no enjoyment to be had on holiday when all you're doing is worrying if your dog is happy or not. So, after deciding as a family that we'd all care for each others dogs when we were away and then this quickly extending to friends, it was clear there was a need for a different kind of holiday dog care.
Thirlmere House Dog Boarding has been operating for three years now and is small but thriving business. We offer a complete home from home experience for customers and their dogs. During their stay, they are treated exactly like our own dog - neverending love, cuddles, country walks and trips to garden centres (and of course, plenty of pubs!) We strive to make their holiday as fun as their owners - if not more so!
Every dog is different, therefore a personalised plan of nutrition, exercise and care is delivered to make sure every dog is content when they are here. We are in touch with owners everyday when they are away with photos and videos to give you, the owner complete peace of mind: happy holidays all round!
