We have been dealing with Isobel for the past 8 years. Every time we go away, our dogs are very happy to stay at berwick boarding; they let them run around every day and they come back to us well looked after - washed, clean and happy.

Approximate cost: $25/day

What can I say? When my two border collies eagerly jump out of the car at holiday time, I suspect I'm on a winner. However, when I go to collect them, they come and say 'hello', then immediately bound off after the kennel owner, I know that I have found their 'home away from home.'

We have two boisterous labs who LOVE coming here, it's more a holiday for them than it is for us! The owners are friendly but really, the dogs are just so excited when they get there and seem happy when we pick them up which is great for peace of mind.

My two dogs were well looked after, they were kept together so that neither would fret. They were fed, watered and came back looking happy! They had plenty of time and space to run around and the kennels were not pokey.

Approximate cost: $25.00p/dog/night

Was in a huge rush on the telephone when I booked in - almost hung up the phone on me after I had got through booking in one dog, almost had to yell down the phone - wait - there's two more! But, they were well looked after and came home exhausted from running around Cared for medications really well

Approximate cost: $18
