When looking for dog boarding near me, especially for anxious or rescue dogs, one key feature can make all the difference: crate-free care.
At Chrysidis Pet Care in Bensham, Gateshead, we offer a calm, cage-free alternative that puts your pet’s comfort first. Here’s why more local owners are choosing this compassionate approach.
✅ Why Crate-Free Dog Boarding Works for Anxious Dogs
Dogs prone to anxiety, fear, or overstimulation need freedom and familiarity—not confinement. Crate-free boarding allows them to:
🛋️ Roam freely in a quiet home 🌞 Relax in routine, crate-free spaces 🐕 Interact calmly with our friendly Labrador 🔕 Avoid kennel noise and unfamiliar cages 📸 Enjoy real-time photo/video updates for owner peace of mind
Our home setup feels like an extension of yours—no kennels, no loud barks, and absolutely no cages unless a dog prefers one.
🧠 The Psychology Behind a Calm Dog Environment
