Dog Home Boarding in Chester

A Bespoke, Kennel-Free Holiday Experience

Hi, I’m Wendy, and I’m proud to bring the Digs for Dogs home boarding service to the beautiful city of Chester and its surrounding villages.

My approach to dog care is rooted in first-hand experience. I spent many years as a home boarder myself and I know exactly what goes into making a visiting dog feel at home. I understand the incredible peace of mind owners feel when they know their pet is being pampered in a one-to-one environment rather than a kennel.


Why Chester Owners Choose Us

Our service is built around the idea that your dog should have a holiday just as wonderful as yours. We provide a tailored alternative to traditional boarding, focusing on love, safety, and routine.

  • Personalised Matching: Every dog is different, which is why I don’t believe in a “one size fits all” approach. I personally get to know your dog’s quirks and personality to match them with the perfect local host family. Whether they need a high-energy home for long walks or a peaceful spot for plenty of naps, I ensure they are placed in the best possible environment.

  • A True Home-from-Home: Your dog becomes a part of their host’s family. They’ll enjoy all the home comforts they are used to—from sleeping in their own bed to having someone there for plenty of cuddles and companionship throughout the day.

  • Full Door-to-Door Logistics: I take the stress out of your departure day. I provide a professional chauffeur service, collecting your dog in my air-conditioned van and settling them into their holiday home. I’ll then bring them back to you safe and sound when you return.

Reviews about Wendy Paton

Sarah & Mark, Runcorn

Sarah & Mark, Runcorn

"We’ve always been reluctant to use kennels for our Labrador, Buster, as he loves his home comforts too much. Wendy found the perfect host family who treated him like one of their own. Seeing him curled up on a sofa in the photo updates made our holiday so much more relaxing. We won't go anywhere else now!"

"This was the first time we’ve left our puppy, Ted, and I was so worried! Wendy was brilliant; she kept us updated with lovely photos of him out on his walks and playing in the garden. It was so clear he was having his own little holiday! Digs for Dogs provides a five-star service that you just can't get with traditional boarding."

"Our dog can be quite nervous around new people, but Wendy’s experience really showed. She took the time to understand his quirks and matched him with a quiet, calm host family that was a perfect fit. It’s clear Wendy really cares about the dogs she looks after—she’s a true animal lover."
