Crossways Luxury Boarding
You’re checking in at the airport, looking forward to two weeks in the sun.
What we mean is, you’re really looking forward to it. Why?
Because at the same time, your dog is receiving the finest care, the best food, lots of love and affection, loads of fresh air, they’re relaxing in wonderful comfortable kennels, running around in plenty of space…
Yes, places like this DO exist. They exist here, at Crossways Kennels. We provide the best of the best for dogs with, shall we say, a taste for the finer things in life.
Or rather, what we mean is, for dog owners like you who are totally devoted. It’s as simple as that. And, importantly, who want their beloved best friend to lack for nothing. To receive the highest standards of nurturing; to relax, and feel safe, happy and calm.
If you’re off on your luxury holiday, or even just for a few days away, why not get in touch with us to find out more?
About our luxury boarding
Imagine a retreat. Then, imagine Crossways Kennels’ luxury boarding for dogs.
Our aim is to dissolve your worries and concerns completely.
We’ll take care of everything, with a homely environment, and close care and attention throughout their stay. This is total indulgence, yet with the essential physical and mental wellbeing of your dog at the heart of what we do.
Eight large individual Mediterranean-style kennel spaces, each named after Greek islands for a relaxed, sunny vibe. These are modern, innovative, and new.
Luxury
Painted in crisp Grecian white, with a chic blue trim around the doors, they’re constructed from high-grade aluminium and graphite and with double-glazed windows.
Cleanliness
We clean your dog’s accommodation three times a day for maximum comfort and cleanliness.
Comfort
Soft furnishings, comfortable raised beds, underfloor heating and air conditioning.
Playtime
Extra playtime, with his or her own private play area and free toys. Because we understand that animals are at one with nature, there are olive trees for shade, and for that extra special touch.
Open Space
There’s fresh air and fun in our re-wilded 16-acre field, within which your dog can run around. We also own two acres of natural woodland.
Environment
Exceptional care, extra enrichment, and an outstandingly calm environment for de-stressing.
Fine Dining
The finest natural, organic wet and dry food, which we source locally. Do let us know if there is anything your dog prefers, or needs.
Entertainment
Doggy TV. A premium, cable television network, made especially for dogs to keep them calm and contented. (No cats or squirrels.)
A bespoke approach
Every dog has distinct needs, so let’s establish in detail his or her care plan when you bring your pet to us. We’d be happy to discuss any queries or questions you may have on the phone, too, so do get in touch.
This is six-star treatment, custom designed to put the needs of your dog centre stage.
As well as Crossways’ no-holds-barred opulence, we also carefully track our guests’ behaviour, just to make sure that there are no indications of any physical or mental health concerns.
Our experienced staff will monitor:
- Diet (including any special food they may need)
- Health and/or health issues
- Medication
- Toilet routines
- Exercise and play enrichment
This assessment is vital because it helps us to understand individual requirements. It’s in-depth, and thorough. Why? Because we want the absolute best for you, and for your dog.
While you’re away
Don’t be concerned. Just relax on your holiday. Your faith and trust in us will be rewarded with a happy and contented furry friend when you come to us to collect them.
As long as it doesn’t impinge on the care we offer all our animals, and within reasonable parameters, we’ll be able to update you during your time away, even including a photo should you so wish.
Should any health problems arise, we’ll take immediate action to ensure that he or she is seen promptly by your vet. We also work with a local veterinary practice. And of course, we’ll keep you up to speed with everything.
First thing: Morning relief and relaxation AND BREAKFAST …. YUM
