Even animals need some me time...

Sandy Paws established in 2014 is a family business run by ourselves Jonny and Irene, born from our mutual love of animals. We started our business in the coastal town of Coldingham (hence the name Sandy Paws) and have recently relocated to expand our ever growing business to nearby Auchencrow.

Sandy Paws Dog Resort at West Greenfields Auchencrow is situated in an idyllic location, which boasts 5 acres of secure doggy friendly grounds and its very own pond. We are nestled in the stunning Berwickshire countryside, with an abundance of beautiful countryside walks on our doorstep and
beach side walks only 10 minutes away! It’s truly a pets paradise!

We are fully licensed and insured and are also happy to address individual needs and administer medication. Customers are welcome to provide their dogs own bedding for their stay and we ask that you provide your dogs own food, we have plenty storage for all types of diet. We only accept dogs that are good with others and don’t take any new bookings without first doing a free consultation and trial. We welcome consultations & trial visits via appointment giving you the opportunity to view our resort and go over your dogs requirements before their stay please contact us to arrange this.

Fantastic for puppies and older dogs who might not feel up to a walk, our home visits can be used to let them out, play, feed or clean up any little accidents. We are also more than happy to take care of any little jobs while we are there like popping the bins out – just ask!

Not just for pooches – We also offer home visits for other pets too. We have a vast experience in looking after pets of all shapes and sizes. Over the past few years we have cared for fish, reptiles, cats and birds and everything in between. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Irene and Jonny are amazing. We just love Sandy Paws. They are so helpful and accommodating whatever you need whenever you want it. Murphy is a happier healthier dog. Thank you both for all you do.

Anne Mason

Have used Sandy Paws for more than a year now, both dog walking and staying over when we aren't able to take the on holiday....I couldn't leave my dogs with just anyone and not in standard kennels. My dogs go from home to home with Sandy paws, and just love it. Very professional service Johnny & Irene provide.

Claire McFarlane

Aries loves her holidays and random walks at Sandy Paws. Irene and Johnny treat Aries like their own dogs and welcome her into their home , where the care and attention shown is professional at all times. I have peace of mind knowing Aries will be well looked after and loved whilst sharing their home. I can highly recommend Sandy Paws for boarding and walking services. She will be looking forward to her Sandy Paws holiday later this year. Thank you for providing such an excellent and professional canine service.
