Ridge Hill Kennels & Cattery

Outstanding Kennels!Our dog, Duke, has been a frequent visitor to Ridge Hill Kennels since 2007. Duke absolutely loves it there and cannot wait to get out of the car when we arrive. He trots off with Sue or one of the girls without even a backward glance!As a rescue dog who had a very bad start in life, Duke is not the most confident of dogs, but he clearly feels very safe, happy and at ease in the kennels. Nothing is too much trouble for Sue and her team; they go out of their way to make sure that their canine guests are catered for in every way, and that they feel at home. Duke gets plenty of exercise out in the paddock or surrounding fields, which he loves, and he is very happy in his 5 star accommodation.Sue maintains extremely high standards of cleanliness and care, and even when I have had occasion to turn up unannounced, out of hours, I have never seen them fall. Duke always leaves (reluctantly!) very happy, healthy, clean and well fed.I recommend Ridge Hill Kennels unreservedly.

I have been using Ridge Hill Kennels for about 12 years. My dogs go in happy, and come out happy. They are well looked after, and are excited to get out of the car. So, that's good enough for me.I just haven't found any other kennels where I trust the standard of attention and care as much. I have used two or three other kennel businesses, when there has not been availability at Ridge Hill (as I left it too late!). I am always happier when my dog stays there.

What a fabulous kennels. Our dogs Coco and Mimi stayed for four nights and were in high spirits when we collected them. Sue and her team are amazing and we highly recommend.

This is the best boarding Kennels for us to date Holly stayed for 6 days & she came back very Happy looks like she's really been very happy we won't be looking any where else this place is a keeper I am extremely fussy no problems whatsoever my husband tells me she said her goodbyes to the kennel girls . Thank you so much to the excellent grooming you gave to Holly perfect can't thank you enough for the great job you have done xx

Each time we've left our dog we have told them she is wary of other dogs and when we would be arriving to drop off, the owners dogs were loose on the yard making it difficult for us to get ours out of the car. Also they have complained that she's yappy or digs (she's a typical terrier) ! Finding another kennels

Lovely people and setting. Really good job with our Malamute who had her first ever grooming session today. Would recommend

Excellent kennels and cattery I wouldn't take my pets anywhere else. My dog Meg never wants to come home when she has been staying here, and the pictures and updates on facebook are lovely to see whilst we are away. The groomer always does a wonderful job too she always comes home looking and smelling beautiful!

Our dog Cassie can't get in there fast enough when we take her. She loves the doggy play times in the field. Glad we can leave her there knowing she's going to be happy and well cared for.

Dear All,After having first hand experience with Ridge Hill Kennels and then reading the ONE negative review that had been written, I felt duty bound to add a review.I was a Police dog handler for over 25 years. My dogs are not only pets, but colleagues. We work as a team, trust each other and consequently have an incredible bond. I rarely put my dogs in to kennels and each time I had to, hated doing so as I worried that they wouldn't get the attention equal to my expectations. Since retiring from the Police, I had the need last year to put my dogs in to private kennels. I was very lucky to have found Sue and her team at Ridgehill. They have a fantastic understanding and empathy for each individual dog/owner. After checking that the dog in question is sociable, they are allowed to exercise with other dogs. If a dog has specific needs/medication etc this is managed without question. The staff get to know each dog and recognise if there is any change in their behaviour/health etc. They even take photos of the dogs exercising together and post them on their website, so that owners can actually see their dogs having fun.I totally recommend Ridgehill Kennels to anyone who has the need to place their dog in a secure,warm and enjoyable environment. Thank You Ridgehill for providing such a fantastic service. It means so much to me that should I need kennels, you are there. Helen. x
