Welcome to HairB&B

North East's Most Exclusive Dog Retreat

Hello. I’m Phoebe — resident Boxer, head of guest relations, and full-time quality inspector. Welcome to HairB&B, my home.

HairB&B is a luxury, boarding home for dogs. Located in North Shields, Tyne & Wear. A stay at HairB&B means your dog gets the run of a real home, constant company, and VIP treatment… while my humans do all the boring bits like paperwork, driving and laundry.

Your dog becomes part of my household routine, including beach walks, countryside adventures, naps on soft things and supervised play at all times. My humans are always here, and nobody is ever left alone, wondering where the postcard is and counting down the days.

What we Offer

My Humans are Very Particular

One guest at a time

We welcome only one guest dog at a time, ensuring calm surroundings, individual attention, and a truly personal stay.

Clean bowls after every meal

Food and water bowls are thoroughly cleaned after every meal to maintain hygiene and keep routines consistent.

Pet-safe cleaning throughout

All areas of the home are cleaned daily using pet-safe products, keeping the environment fresh, safe, and comfortable.

Good Excersise

Each day includes structured, supervised exercise tailored to your dog’s age, energy level, and preferences.

Walks, Play & Enrichment

Our adventures pass the sniff tests

Together with my visiting guests, I lead the way on at least two proper outings a day, from beach walks full of top-tier smells to peaceful countryside strolls where we can take things at our own pace. My humans make sure everyone stays safe and comfortable, keeping us on the lead unless you’ve said otherwise, and adjusting everything to suit energy levels, confidence, and personality. Back at home, there’s indoor play, enrichment games, and plenty of time for calm rest (which I consider a professional skill).

“My humans will send updates via WoofsApp!”

A Stay Like No Other

Because sharing is overrated

We only host one guest at a time for total attention

At HairB&B, I only ever host one guest dog at a time, which means no packs, no cages, plenty of prime resting spots and most importantly, I don’t need to share my toys with more than one guest. Each guest becomes part of my household routine. From beach walks and countryside adventures to supervised play and long, comfortable rests. With my humans ever present, every moment is calm, personal, and reassuring. It’s a stay designed for dogs who thrive on individual attention, enjoy a predictable routine, and are used to being treated like family, exactly as they should be.

We respectfully ask our guests are

Pre-Stay Meet & Greet

Getting to know each other

Before any stay, our humans arrange a relaxed meet & greet, giving everyone the chance to get to know each other properly. It’s a calm introduction where routines, preferences, and any important details are discussed, while I quietly assess whether a new friend will fit into my household (I take this role very seriously). It ensures your dog is comfortable in the environment, happy with the company, and suited to our one-guest-at-a-time approach. By the time a stay is confirmed, there are no surprises — just familiar smells, friendly faces, and a smooth, stress-free start to their holiday.

“Specifics such as diet, sleeping arrangements and favourite toys can be discussed by the humans while we get acquainted.”

The meet & greet gives everyone time to settle in
