Home Dog Boarding in Aylesbury — 24/7 Care in a Real Home

Looking for dog boarding in Aylesbury where your dog actually feels at home? At Friends Paw Life, your dog stays with us in our family home in Aylesbury — not in a kennel, not in a crate, and never left alone. During the day, boarding dogs join our daycare group at our Great Missenden facility, so they’re active and socialised throughout their stay. We’re fully licensed, insured, and care for dogs across Aylesbury and surrounding areas.

Whether you need overnight boarding, a long weekend, or a longer stay while you’re away, we keep it simple: your dog joins our family until you’re back.

What’s Included in Every Stay

No hidden extras. Everything below is included as standard:

• A genuine home environment — your dog lives in the house with us, not in a facility
• Daily walks along local countryside routes
• Daytime play and activities with our daycare group (boarding dogs join in — they’re not left sitting around)
• Regular photo and video updates throughout the day
• A phone call if anything comes up and you’d like a chat
• Free pick-up and drop-off on our route — Aylesbury, Wendover, Princes Risborough, Great Missenden and villages in between

What a Typical Boarding Day Looks Like

Your dog’s day won’t be quiet. During the day, dogs staying with us join our daycare group and take part in everything — themed outdoor play areas (Stony Bay, Foggy Forest, Boneyard, Green Lawns, Woodland Adventures), training activities, socialising with other dogs, and plenty of attention.

In the evenings, they settle in with the family. Same routine, same comfort, every night of their stay.

This is the difference between Friends Paw Life and standard kennels: your dog isn’t sitting in a run counting the hours. They’re living a proper day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this home boarding or a kennels?

Home boarding. Your dog stays in our private family home, sleeps where our own pets sleep, and is never locked in a kennel or crate overnight. We hold two active local authority daycare and boarding licences — LC202311-129068 and LC202504-146849.

How much does dog boarding in Aylesbury cost?

Our home dog boarding starts from £35 per session. The exact price depends on the length of stay and your dog’s individual needs. Contact us and we’ll give you a same-day quote.

Do you offer a meet and greet before boarding?

Yes — all dogs have a free meet and greet before their first stay. It lets us get to know your dog properly, and gives you a chance to see where they’ll be staying before you go.

What should I bring for my dog?

Bring their own food, any medication they’re on, their bed or a blanket with a familiar scent, and a favourite toy if they have one. Familiar things help them settle in quickly.

Do you offer boarding at weekends and over Bank Holidays?

Yes. We’re available 7 days a week, including weekends and Bank Holidays. Same-day bookings are sometimes possible — call us to check availability.

Can you take puppies or older dogs?

We consider each dog on their own merits. If your dog has particular needs — whether they’re a puppy who needs extra watching or a senior dog who prefers a quieter pace — get in touch and we’ll talk it through before booking.
