​Appy Paws
Dog Home Boarding




​At Appy Paws all animals are given individual attention and daily walks, plus the benefit of being able to roam around in our extensive garden areas. All garden areas are gated, fenced and secure.
Our main priority is to make your pet feel at home. To allow us to do this we advise owners to bring some of their pets toys and bedding. Furthermore, we prefer owners to supply their own dogs food so that their pet is able to continue its usual dietery needs.
We are a dog-loving family and are members of the National Home Boarding Register.
Please note: We are not a kennels

Exercise
Our dog boarders have all-day access to large outdoor areas where they can roam and play. Also, we give our boarders long daily walks in the beautiful countryside and constant care and affection.
We take our boarders on daily walks, from the beautiful Dawlish Warren beaches and the woodlands at Mamhead to the quaint walks through the village of Cockwood and over the harbour bridge to the lovely area of Starcross.​

'What a discovery! Having never used home boarding in the past I was a little apprehensive when I booked Bernie my 5 year old Bernese into Appy Paws. Well my doubts were completely unfounded as I had reassuring text messages concerning Bernie's contentment. I find Peter and Vicky very caring people and as you can see from Bernie's photographs he was very contented enjoying his usual home comforts! I shall not hesitate to use Appy Paws again, but I understand that because their splendid reputation is spreading so fast I shall have to book very early to secure his place.'​

'I would like to thank you all very much for the superb care and love you obviously provided for my pooch. He came back, totally happy and beautifully brushed. I felt that given the choice he would have stayed much longer. It is such a relief to know that you can leave your dog in capable hands while you are away.' ​​​​​

'Each time our dogs have stayed we've felt good about leaving them as we know they are well looked after and always seem so happy there - we wouldn't leave them anywhere else!'​
Mr IG - Dawlish​
'The service you offer is more in the nature of a dog holiday hotel than a kennels; and the fact my dog, although pleased to see me, was reluctant to leave, says everything'​
