We’re proud to offer our trusted PetStay service in your city, providing local, personalised dog care that ensures your pet feels right at home. With a dedicated PetStay branch in your area, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog will receive the best care from experienced, fully vetted carers who are part of your local community.
Our daily rate is made up of two separate payments: the Arrangement Fee and the Carer’s Allowance. Together, these payments cover the full cost of your dog’s stay, ensuring they receive loving care in a safe and happy home.
Prices listed are per day (or part thereof), except for Bank Holidays, when the Carer’s Allowance is doubled — because we believe our wonderful carers deserve extra for their dedication during these special times!
The Arrangement Fee secures your dog’s booking and is due within five days of meeting your chosen carer. For repeat bookings, this fee must be paid within five days of your requested dates being confirmed by PetStay.
This fee is non-refundable and non-transferable, as it covers the service provided by your local PetStay branch in carefully matching your dog with a suitable carer. It also contributes to essential operational costs, including:
The Carer’s Allowance is a separate payment, made directly to your chosen carer when you drop your dog off for their holiday. On Bank Holidays, this allowance is doubled, reflecting the extra commitment and care our carers provide during these times.
Together, the Arrangement Fee and the Carer’s Allowance make up the full daily rate for your dog’s stay.
For more details on Bank Holiday rates or any other inquiries, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

You must be a genuine dog lover, have experience of looking after dogs and you need to be home during the day so you have plenty of time to give to the dogs you are caring for. You must have a secure garden and agree to abide by PetStay guidelines. You are allowed to have a dog of your own as long as your dog gets on with other dogs.
If you meet all the requirements listed above, we will come and visit you at your home. We will check the security of the garden, explain PetStay procedures and show you the guidelines each carer needs to follow. If you are happy with everything and we feel you would make a suitable PetStay carer, we would follow up a reference and arrange public liability insurance for you.
Our service is on a one-to-one basis, so only dogs from the same household will stay with you. You are allowed to take up to three dogs from the same household, BUT you choose what you are happy with. We will ask you how many dogs you would like to look after and what sized dog/s you would be happy to care for.
No, the owner will bring any food or treats for the duration of the stay. Any toys, bedding, medication and leads will also be brought.
Yes each dog MUST have up to date vaccinations, have been wormed and treated for fleas. Proof of the vaccinations will be brought to the meeting and shown to you.
All dogs should be taken out each day for walks. When you have your meeting with the owners all routines, including the number and length of walks, will be discussed. The dog is only ever walked on a lead.
We/you would endeavour to contact the owner or the emergency contact. The owner or the emergency contact would be liable for any expenses incurred in taking the dog to the vet.
You will receive a daily allowance starting from £20 per day.
If you are interested in becoming a carer, please ring us for an informal chat and ask any questions or email us with your details and we will come back to you. You can also use the contact form on the ‘contact us’ tab. If we feel you are suitable we would then arrange to visit you at home.
Jane was great through the whole process. Always willing to help. Geraldine is the perfect fit for our dog Otti, he’s is a high strung dog but she is able to handle him perfectly. We couldn’t ask for anyone better.
Kersten
Excellent customer service from start to finish. Our boy was extremely well looked after by Susan and Brian. We would thoroughly recommend them and will certainly be using them thank you once again.
Rose
Felt my dog was well looked after and all instructions carried out. Updated daily with photos and communications with all staff vet good. Thank you
Viviane
Toots our dog stayed with Margot for a week whilst we were on holiday and Toots was so well looked after. Toots can be anxious and unsettled at times and it’s something I really make sitters aware of as some people really struggle with a dog like Toots (despite her being so cute). But Margot is a wonderful woman with a real calm warmth to her and I felt confident that Toots was in good hands after meeting her. We would love for Margot to look after Toots again. I really felt Toots was treated as family especially when Toots was unsettled with fireworks Margot helped her feel safe which is not an easy task. I really appreciated Margot’s patience and knowledge of dogs and the updates were great too.

We can’t recommend Anne highly enough. This was the first time we had used a dog boarding service, so we were a little apprehensive but Anne put our mind at ease on the very first meeting. We were welcomed warmly and felt reassured from the onset that our dog Toby was in safe hands. Anne sent some photos of Toby too looking very relaxed and settled which helped us relax. We would be very happy for Anne to look after our dog again.
Elaine & Alex
My dog Ollie recently stayed with Yvonne and her daughter. This was the best decision we have ever made. Normally Ollie goes to the kennels which he does not like but Yvonne made sure Ollie was well cared for and received lots of attention. Ollie can be tricky, pulling on the lead and anxious around other dogs but Yvonne listened to everything we told her and made sure Ollie was safe and less anxious. I would definitely recommend PetStay and Yvonne. From start to finish, communication has been excellent. A lovely touch was that every day Yvonne also sent me a few pics / video so I could see how much fun he was having and it definitely put my mind at ease. Thanks again PetStay and Yvonne. We will definitely use you again.
Fiona
Otis had the best time with Margot again! Margot kept in touch with us throughout our holiday and sent us lots of pictures of Otis while we were away. Otis can be quite anxious when we’re not there but he always settles great when he’s with Margot. I’d highly recommend PetStay and Margot.
Aimee
Dora’s first time stay with Shirley & Vince and it was perfect. Plenty of love and play along with loads of updates. Couldn’t have asked for more. Lovely couple and Dora even met all the family who were just as kind
Jane at PetStay ensured everything went smoothly and even sent reminders of what to take before hand which is so handy if you are running around last minute sorting out pre holiday chores.
Been using Jane’s services for over 5 years now and it is probably the best out there! Jeff
Our lab Grace has stayed with Lorraine and family 3 times now and we are very pleased that she has what feels like a home from home. It’s a happy and busy household and Grace clearly enjoys being there and seems to be very much herself. Lorraine communicates well, sends great pictures and is really on it. I don’t worry about Grace at all now while we are away. Thanks!
Sarah
Kona is just back from a week long stay with Charlie and Margaret, this is her fourth time with them and she becomes excited when she hears who she’s going to see. She ran in the house door and couldn’t wait for us to leave. As always she was extremely well looked after, photos were sent to us, and we could see how content Kona was. I thoroughly recommend Charlie and Margaret as would Kona if she could type .
Louise
PetStay has been a god-send! After checking many boarders over several years to look after our Dalmation, Stamford, we came across Jane at PetStay who was able to recommend Sue & Barry as being the ideal boarder for him. By asking the right questions about Stamford, she was able to match us with the most appropriate boarder. It turns out Sue & Barry was everything and more. The service was faultless, from the initial meet & greet, to the stay itself. Throughout the process, Jane kept us fully informed, including an excellent reminder list of what to take to make the stay perfect. Sue & Barry were just exactly what Stamford needed. He’s a dog that needs attention when he wants it, and they definitely provided that! Throughout his stay, we were sent pictures & updates to show he was loving his holiday! And that is all dog owners want when they go on holiday – that their 4-legged is being well looked after. We would definitely recommend PetStay is the perfect company to get the right match, and Stamford’s match, Sue & Barry were fabulous. Thank you!
Grant
The whole experience with PetStay has been amazing . Jane was extremely efficient in all her communication and finding us a sitter. Sue and Barry were so lovely .They have lots of experience with all types of dogs and I knew Hattie , our bouncy Labrador ,was in safe , capable and caring hands .Sue took the time to send us regular photos and video updates. Hattie had a wonderful holiday and would 100 per cent like to return!
We highly recommend Sue and Barry as Dog sitters and PetStay overall – a wonderful organisation!
Victoria
As always, Nigel had a great time staying with Ann & Chip. We know that Ann takes such great care of Nigel whenever we are on holiday, which means we can relax knowing he is happy and well looked after. It was lovely to see how excited Nigel was when we arrived at Ann’s to drop him off, and it was clear that he was delighted to be back. Chip was pleased to see Nigel as well, which was lovely to see!.
Happy Customer
Our border terrier, Tierney, had an incredible time with Geraldine! It was so clear from the start that Geraldine gave Tierney so much love, care and attention. We felt completely reassured knowing that he was in such safe hands, having a wonderful time filled with lots of snuggles and long, wholesome walks.
Geraldine was also incredibly communicative throughout, regularly sending us lovely updates and plenty of photos, which we really appreciated. It made being away from Tierney so much easier knowing they were happy and so well cared for. We will definitely be using Geraldine again. It’s so reassuring to know our beloved dog is with
someone who is so fun, caring, thoughtful and genuinely loves spending time with. We couldn’t have asked for better care!
David
Lovely family. Obviously dog lovers and looked after my cockapoo so well. Lots of attention, walks and care to give her daily medication. Received pictures and videos. Looked very happy and not missing us at all!
I’m sure she’ll be happy to return for our next holiday.
Heather
A return visit for Cooper with Marlyn. Cooper is a nervous dog and Marlyn really helps to manage this which is really appreciated. We get regular updates which helps put us at ease knowing he is happy. We will have no hesitation using PetStay in the future.
Carolyn
My dog had a great time and was reluctant to come home. We loved the regular updates, especially the videos, and we could see she was having having the best holiday ever. She was in really safe, caring hands. Would definitely recommend and use Giovanni and Stuart again.
Wendy
I have used PetStay Glasgow on two occasions our spaniel boarded with Kiran and Keith. I can’t thank them enough for looking after him while we were on holiday and sending us daily photos and updates. I would highly recommend Kiran and Keith and wouldn’t hesitate to have them look after our boy again. Knowing your pet is being well looked after brings a real comfort when on holiday. Thanks again Kiran and Keith.
Eileen
This was our first experience using a boarding service. Reggie our 10 month old pup made himself at home with Alice & Bernard. I was updated daily on his day with pictures of his walks. Made me feel at ease and we will be using PetStay again. Reggie had a great time.
Lisa
I’ve never felt so at ease having my dog Toots watched whilst I was away on holiday. Kiran and Keith are just wonderful people with such a brilliant energy for dogs. Toots can be quite anxious but from the first time meeting Kiran and Keith I could see how comfortable Toots felt with them both. She had the best time and the photo updates were great. I really feel Toots has been welcomed into their family and that makes me so happy to book in more sits knowing how loved she is even after just a short sit. I couldn’t recommend the service and Kiran and Keith enough. Jane was also amazingly helpful to get this organised because I was a little last minute so very thankful.
Denise
Lola had another fabulous stay with Geraldine and I couldn’t be happier with the service that Geraldine provides. Lola is well cared for and pulled us up the path to get to Geraldine’s front door as she was so excited. Geraldine is great at keeping in touch and sends regularly updates on Lola along with lovely photos while we are away. I can’t recommend Geraldine enough and I’m happy that I put my trust in PetStay as we can now enjoy holidays knowing Lola is being cared for the way we care for her at home.. possibly even better actually!
