Country dog boarding · New Hope, PA

Your dog’s vacation home, whilst you’re away on yours.

A family home on three fenced acres in Bucks County — small pack, home comforts, and pick-ups from NY, NJ & CT.

Two Brits, 360 degrees of green

We are two Brits from Brooklyn — originally from Bucks County in England and the Lake District in Cumbria. From New York to New Hope, we find ourselves in Bucks County, PA.

Our home is surrounded by green on every side: a sanctuary for our adopted rescue dogs and their guest friends. Recharge, make friends, have fun.

A home, not a kennel

Outdoor fun

Three acres of fenced garden to run around and play. Eat, nap, play — on repeat, all day long.

Home comforts

Indoor comforts in a family living environment. You bring your pup’s food and familiar scents — this is your dog’s second home. At bedtime, guests have separate designated areas to sleep.

Dogs meeting and playing together

The right pack

We separate dogs by size, family unit, and those who prefer their own space. Puppies, seniors and dogs with additional needs are all welcome.

Meet & greet first

At the meet and greet, your dog takes in all the sniffs and smells of our home. You see their surroundings and meet us — it helps you decide if it’s the right fit for you and your dog, and helps us see whether your dog will be part of the pack.

Send your requested dates as soon as possible — spots go fast over summer, holidays and weekends. Pick-ups and drop-offs are available in NY, NJ & CT.

“Dogs do speak, but only to those who listen.”
Orhan Pamuk
