Clyde Valley Pet Retreat has been a long held dream of mine. My dream was to create something truly unique and to cater for dog owners who are simply not prepared to leave their dogs in brick and metal boxes while they enjoy their holiday.
We are here to ensure that your dogs enjoy the same high standards of care, love and attention they are used to at home and have a boarding experience like no other.
By offering luxury and service unparalleled anywhere in the country my hope is that Clyde Valley Pet Retreat will be the first choice for discerning dog owners in Scotland.
Our two very large and very luxurious dog boarding suites have been finished to the highest of standards and offer one to one care for each suite.
Due to the size of each suite, you can also have the peace of mind that if you own more than one dog, they can live together happily and comfortably together with no need for them to be separated.
Clyde Valley Pet Retreat is set in three acres of land surrounded by hundreds of acres of open countryside.
My aim was to create large dog boarding suites with a level of finish and luxury second to none.
They have been fully insulated and are fitted with full height toughened double glazed windows and doors as a well as a thermal dog hatch to make sure your dogs are kept safe and warm.
Each suite benefits from thermostatically controlled electric underfloor heating, luxury porcelain tiles inside and out, and 24 hour live feed webcams which can be accessed from anywhere in the world day or night.
The underfloor heating covers 75% of the floor allowing for cool areas should you dog wish to stay cool.
Each suite has fantastic views across open fields to the rear and the full height double glazed windows offer views across the Clyde Valley towards the Campsie Fells and beyond.
We have The Ben Lomond Suite and The Campsie Suite and are named after two of the mountains which dominate the view from our house.
The rear exercise runs are fully covered and are the same size as the internal sleeping areas so there is plenty of room for your dogs to move around in between walks.
For added security there are two rows of outer mesh fencing which creates a safety corridor ensuring you dogs cannot get free whilst being readied for their walks.
Should the good old Scottish weather turn bad whilst your dogs are staying with us, you will be glad to know that we have our very own separate shower room where our guests will get a good wash down and dry before retiring to their suites.
I trust you will find all of the information contained within our site useful and we hope that you can now see that there is an alternative to traditional boarding kennels.
