When you’re looking for convenient dog boarding in Gateshead, nothing matters more than knowing your dog will be safe, calm, and genuinely cared for. At Chrysidis Pet Care, I offer a trusted alternative to kennels—providing crate-free, home-based overnight care in a quiet, nurturing environment. Whether you’re away for a weekend or planning a longer trip, your dog stays in a real home—not a facility—where they’re treated like family.
A Calm and Safe Home for Your Dog
Safety and peace of mind are at the heart of Chrysidis Pet Care. Unlike traditional kennels or commercial boarding centres, dogs here stay in a calm, residential home alongside my friendly Labrador, Holy. There are no cages, no noisy environments—just soft beds, familiar routines, and round-the-clock one-on-one care. I specialise in boarding for anxious and rescue dogs, ensuring every pet feels secure and settled.
From designated sleeping spaces to supervised garden access, the setup is tailored to promote trust, comfort, and routine. And because I only take a small number of dogs at once, your pet will always receive personalised attention.
Over 30 Years of Hands-On Pet Experience
I grew up surrounded by animals on a farm and in a veterinary family, and I bring that lifetime of knowledge into everything I do. Whether it’s administering medication, managing special behaviours, or simply knowing when a dog needs quiet time or play—my approach is based on understanding each dog’s emotional and physical needs.
Every stay includes:
Trial day options for anxious or first-time boarders Regular updates with photos and videos A consistent daily routine including walks, meals, and rest Calm social interaction with Holy for well-matched dogs
I offer solo care—so your dog isn’t passed between staff or left alone in a kennel. I’m here with them every step of the way.
Flexible Drop-Off and Pick-Up Options
As a local Gateshead-based service, I understand that life isn’t always predictable. That’s why I offer flexible drop-off and collection times, including evening slots to fit around your work or travel schedule.
Whether you’re catching an early train or returning from a late meeting, I’ll work with you to ensure your dog’s transition is smooth and stress-free.
Affordable Rates for High-Quality, Personalised Care
Pet care shouldn’t be a luxury—and at Chrysidis Pet Care, it isn’t. I offer transparent, competitive pricing without compromising on the quality of care.
Dog Boarding – £24/night, Dog Day Care – £19/day. Dog Walking (after 4pm) – £11/walk
There are no hidden fees, and your dog receives everything they need—plenty of love, structure, play, and rest—included in the price.
Flexible Stays for Your Changing Needs
Whether you’re away for one night or ten, I can accommodate your plans with flexible booking options, including:
Last-minute overnight stays Long-term boarding Trial overnights for anxious dogs Evening walks during weekday gaps
At Chrysidis Pet Care, every stay is designed around your dog’s individual needs. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach—just dedicated, personalised care from someone who truly understands animals.
