Dog Boarding & Pet Care in Saltaire
Dog Boarding & Pet Care in Saltaire
Saltaire is a village of terraces and apartments, which means a lot of dogs here have no garden of their own and a lot of owners work long days. Two visits a day, or a full day of boarding, makes a real difference to that.
We are five minutes over the river in Baildon, so Saltaire dogs get a proper day out, Roberts Park, the canal, and time in a house and garden, instead of waiting indoors for the door to open.

What Saltaire Pet Owners Say
Real reviews from real pet parents who trust us with their furry family members.
“Wonderful service, very welcoming, excellent communication. My dog loved it so much. Excellent booking system, highly recommend”
“Bluebelle had her first ever stay away from home , she stayed for a week. Faye was so reassuring with regular updates and pics that this enabled us to relax and not worry . Bluebelle enjoyed it so much I’m not sure she wanted to leave. It was nice to see she got to interact with other dogs whilst there which she really enjoyed. We have booked again for next year with confidence and I’m sure Bluebelle will be happy to return.”
“My little Teddy is really well looked after at Field and Fur. He gets lots of cuddles and love and comes home tired after his walks 💙 Faye is great and I really appreciate the flexibility around our reasons for day care and boarding. Thank you x”
