Pet Boarding - Posh Pets Spain

Pet Boarding "Doggie Hotel" & “Cattery”

Small, friendly, unique, non commercial pet hotel accommodation is what is on offer for your pet. Our unique pet boarding facilities offer your pet the chance to have a holiday too.

A "Hansel & Gretel" style chalet for up to 8 dogs with its own private enclosure complete with toys & music, surrounded by a beautiful mature orchard is what is on offer for your canine companion, much more comfortable than a conventional kennels for your dog. And for your feline friend a beautiful home at the other end of the orchard complete with climbing frames, scratch pads, toys and music completely away from any canine contact.

A home from home pet boarding service to include:

For the Canine:

• Unique one to one service.

• Pet Carers that have had more than 30 years experience & training in the UK running successful boarding & breeding kennels, cattery, grooming salons, having a reputable kennel club breed affix, been Show Secretary in UK & been Judging & showing on the UK show circuit.

• We are not offering a commercial kennels but a small, unique doggy type hotel for your canine companion.

• Dogs have their own "Hansel & Gretel" style chalet complete with its own private enclosure and surrounded by a beautiful mature orchard.

• Huge exercising area in large secure orchard.

• Chalets and runs are partially covered to protect from all the weather elements (rain & sun).

• All runs are fitted with sprinkler systems to cool the temperature down in the hot summer months.

• Regular playtimes given, 24hr care, plenty of human TLC.

• Individual requirements always catered for & medication administered.

• Easy pick up and drop off of pets direct to the Salon.

• Residential dog training can be catered for whilst with us.

• Bathing & Grooming service offered before home time.

• The Dog chalets are temperate therefore pets are “snug as a bug” in the winter & nice & cool in the summer months.
• The pets own exercising enclosure, we believe are the largest in the area therefore plenty of room for them to play in. We are great believers in giving your pets the freedom & space they deserve to enjoy their stay without being kept in over crowed conditions.
• We do not ask that pets are given a vaccine for “canine cough/kennel cough” as the vaccines that are currently available from your vets only cover one strain of the cough.  It is a nasty vaccine & believe it or not but your vet will confirm that there are at least 25 different strains !!! Canine cough is similar to the human flu & to be honest there is more chance of your pets catching the virus at your own vets than with us as our pet facilities have plenty of space. We are proud to say we fortunately have never had the virus here. 

Protecting your pets against the Sandfly & Leismaniosis
As we are as concerned as all our clients for the welfare of our pets with the threat of the leishmaniosis-transmitting sand fly species / mosquitoes, we ask that all dogs that stay with us must wear a white Scalibor collar or be treated with a relevant spot on treatment such as advantix. These can be purchased at Posh Pets Spain at very competitive prices.
In this modern day we have fitted ultrasonic mosquito repellents into our boarding area that help protect your pets not only in their sleeping chalets but also in their complete exercising areas/enclosures.  We have gone down this road as we know that the sand fly is at its most risk to pets during dusk & dawn when actually pets like to be exercised as it is the cooler time of day from June to September. Our ultrasonic repellents will actually cover a 15 metre radius around your pet at all times!!
We have tried & tested these ourselves & found them very successful in the outside areas that we & our pets occupy at night.
We also provide benches & doggy sun beds to ensure that pets can stay off the ground when lying down which is where the sand fly likes to be.

We do not use mosquito nets because:

• Dogs love to exercise in the cooler times of the day  in the hot summer months & we cannot physically “bubble wrap” your pet in a mosquito net!
• Opening the door to their sleeping quarters to let your pet out in the middle of the night should our “baby listening” device tell us that they need to spend a penny!!! Will most certainly allow a mosquito into their chalet anyway.
• Mosquitoes can enter through a crack, gap, hole etc...
• We have found a system that is more practical & safer for all concerned with the ultrasonic repellent being a first line of defence & a scalibor collar or equivalent being a comprehensive & effective safeguard against disease carrying insects.

For the Feline:

• One to one care.

• Small, unique little cattery that has plenty of space for play.

• Beautiful and cool in the hot summer months due to its fabulous location.

• Sheltered in the winter.

• Set at the bottom of a mature orchard that is surrounded by beautiful birds & colour.

• 24 hr care and plenty of TLC.

• Music played all day & accommodation fitted with scratch pads, climbing frames and plenty of toys given.

 • Easy pick up and drop off of pets direct to the salon.

• Grooming & clipping service offered before home time.
