Highly recommend booking in advance as a new establishment with fantastic facilities at a exceptional price. I have no hesitation in advising anyone to book in with Kieran and Kate who are friendly and knowledgeable with first class service. There dog kennels are of ample size and have a blow through system keeping dogs cool in summer and warm in winter in addition they have a outside kennel during the day and a large feild where maximum of 4 dogs at any time will be free to roam everything is high fenced for additional security measures on a rotational basis. Clean place, with safe storage of food and access to fresh water at all times. The area is secluded with great security measures in place high fences and CCTV it's easy to see that dogs booked in at this place are well looked after. First hand experience Kieran has looked after our Dobermann and we were pleased with the service they had to offer- Music on for the dogs to also keep calm.

Its the first time for my dogs to stay with the kennel. brilliant service, friendly staff at drop off and collection. I have an older dog and a nervous younger dog, both need were met. Highly recommend booked in for another 2 visits this year.

We picked our Frenchie up today after an 11 night stay. I was very pleased as she looked very happy, had not lost weigh and her eyes were bright and could also see that she had very much taken to Kate. We were sent photos and videos of Ruby whilst she was in there, which we were delighted at. I would highly recommend Roanhead Kennels and would not hesitate to board Ruby there again. Thank you Kate and Kieron xx

My Patterdale Buddy stayed overnight on Saturday for the first time and had a wonderful time. He was happy when he was picked up and slept right through the 3 hour journey home. Would definitely recommend.

We dropped our dog there on Sunday evening a happy healthy 26kg dog to pick her up on Friday evening a drowsy, skinny 23kg dog. At home she is fed 400gms of food a day and walked for around an hour, the Kennels fed her the same amount of food yet walked her multiple times a day, we were told 4 of unknown time. We weren't contacted at all to be asked if they would like us to feed her more or to say she was losing weight at a rapid rate even when we messaged to ask how she was. When we got her home she passed out in bed and had to be carried to the bath and back, and was in a drowsy state for hours. We rang the emergency vets who told us to monitor her and take her to the vets this morning as we did. Her paws were all bloody and sore and she was holding them up, the vet has told us it's dermatitis probably caused from the bleach they were using or the conditions of their yard and she has also caught conjunctivitis in both eyes plus lost her voice from barking so much. We have contacted them multiple times only for them to say it's not their fault and they have done nothing wrong essentially, they could not care less about violet only that they're not to blame (which clearly they are). They have offered a refund which we haven't accepted as this doesn't fix the health problems she has come home with nor the upset it has caused.
