Kennels

Here at Crossways Kennels in Surrey, when it comes to handing over the care of your  beloved dog, trust is everything. And, confidence.

Being able to switch off to enjoy your well-deserved holiday or weekend away streamlines your mind. It smooths away your worries. It Teflons your downtime.

We have the experience, knowledge, and expertise that you need.

And, an endless, boundless love of dogs that makes all the difference. We’re ahead of the curve, anticipating your questions and concerns with know-how and empathy.

Crossways is licenced to accommodate up to 70 dogs.

Facilities and On-Boarding

Your dog requires outstanding, five-star family protection. Nothing else will do.

So, these aren’t just normal kennels. This is Crossways Kennels, with accommodation standards second to none. Bring your dog to us and before you jet off on holiday, we’ll agree with you:

  • Diet (including any special food they may need)
  • Health and/or health issues
  • Medication
  • Toilet routines
  • Exercise and play needs – every dog is different

In fact, everything you could think of for doggy happiness and comfort. This initial assessment at handover is thorough, and in-depth.

Why?

Because your dog’s welfare means everything to us; literally, everything. Crossways wants you to ENJOY your hard-earned break, safe in the knowledge that your dog is in the best possible hands.

Holiday Time for Your Dog at Crossways

During his or her stay, there’s plenty of time for playtime, walks and loads of fun.

And cuddles, of course. So, we have a high staff-to-dog ratio for maximum attention and care. It’s obvious that dogs need to let off steam, and run around at full pelt. We love to see the joy on their faces.

Each individual, roomy pen has its individual sleeping area, and outside run.

Do bring your dog’s own bedding should you so choose. But don’t worry, we can provide a lovely snuggly bed, with a fleece or a duvet for some sweet dreams.

Nutrition and Care

A well-fed dog is a happy and healthy dog, and we’re pleased to cater for most needs and dietary requirements. We provide good quality wet and dry foods to keep them at their contented best.

Likewise, we ensure that with all that fresh air, they keep hydrated with plenty of water.

Daily, we’ll make full physical checks and if we spot anything, we’ll organise a visit to your local vets and keep you fully informed. Alternatively, we can draw on the expertise of Priory Vets, an independent practice that we know, like and trust.

If your dog requires medication, one of our non-veterinary qualified kennel team will be happy to take on this task. Please supply this in its original packaging from the vets.

Vaccinations & medication

Crossways will only accept our furry friends with up-to-date vaccinations; this is for the welfare of all the animals within our remit. On arrival, we will need evidence that your pet holds a current vaccination certificate.

Do talk to us about vaccinations. These are SO important. They have to be repeated to keep your dog in fine fettle, happy and running around enjoying life to the max.

We are happy to cater for dogs with ongoing medical problems (ie diabetes, epilepsy etc.)

If medication needs to be administered this will be undertaken provided the animal accepts the medication without resistance, and that it can be administered by one of our non veterinary qualified kennel team.

We do not require the kennel cough vaccine. As it is a live vaccine, if you choose to have it; please ensure it is given 14 days before your dog’s arrival.
