What a wonderful stay our beloved spaniel Rosa has had at Barkcation Babo! The peace of mind knowing how well looked after and loved your pet will be is invaluable!
From the moment we met Paul and Sarah and their lovely children at our pre stay visit we knew Rosa was going to be getting the best of care and attention.
Thank you so much for giving us the confidence to go on holiday knowing how well looked after she will be. We can’t recommend you enough. Your attention to detail and care was exemplary! Thank you- you offer dog owners a very special and unique service
Rosa will be back! 
If you are considering leaving your dog somewhere whilst you jet off on holiday – look no further. I can’t recommend Sarah & Paul enough. The thought of leaving our Ralph in kennels literally gave me sleepless nights so I was thrilled to find out Sarah and Paul had started dog boarding. This really is a home away from home environment, Sarah keeps you updated with daily pics and you can really tell how much she loves every dog in her care. Our Ralph is sad to be home with us! Going forward Ralph will go on his yearly holiday to Barkation Babo (if he’s lucky he might get two!) 
Our dogs Mila & Cassie stayed with Sarah and family for 1 night while we got married and I couldn’t recommend them enough! They welcomed them into their home straight away and we could tell when we picked them up how much they’d enjoyed being there. It’s such a big thing leaving your dogs with someone you don’t know but we were immediately put at ease and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to others and will definitely put our dogs in with them again in future. To top it off they got us a bottle and a card to congratulate us on getting married which was such a nice touch and we really appreciated it! If you’re looking for someone to look after your dogs then look no further. Thank you so much, Mark & Hannah
Rocco stayed with Sarah and Paul for 4 nights in June. He has never been left with anyone other than family but we felt so confident that he would be well looked and after and loved. We were sent daily pics and updates of how he was getting on and really did become part of their family for the time he was there. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Barkcation Babo – Rocco will definitely be going back for his holidays when we go away for ours xx
Our wee cockapoo Bear has just come home from his 2.5 week holiday at Barkcation Babo. We really can’t recommend Sarah and her family highly enough! Bear was welcomed into their home and treated as part of the family from the outset. We had loads of video and photo updates and we could really relax on holiday knowing that not only was Bear safe and being really well cared for, he was having an amazing time with loads of fun, cuddles & walks.
We had already booked a second holiday for Bear in October in advance and we’re so glad that we did. He’ll be so excited when he realises he’s going back to Barkcation Babo again 
Sarah and her family did such an amazing job of looking after our cocker spaniel puppy! Bea stayed with Sarah for 5 nights. Bea had an absolutely great time, I think she was sad to come home. Sarah was great to communicate with, both when organising and when looking after Bea. I got regular photo updates and was reassured the full time that my pup was in good hands! I would highly recommend Barkcation Baba and I will 100% be asking if Bea can come stay again soon! Thanks again Sarah
Absolute five star review for Sarah and Barkcation Babo.
My Alfie-dog is very precious to me and he was clearly just as precious to Sarah and her family. He stayed with them for a week, they updated me daily, with photographs, on how he was doing. He was treated as part of the family and clearly had a wonderful time. For my part, I had absolute confidence that he was safe and happy.
I’m already recommending Barkcation Babo to friends and would definitely book a future holiday for Alfie.
Thanks Sarah and family from me and Snoopy 😊🩷
Like every owner, you will be anxious about leaving your dogs effectively with a stranger. But as soon as we met with Sarah and her family, we knew we had nothing to worry about. She instantly put you at ease as it’s clear she loves dogs – and loves caring for other peoples’ dogs. We also really appreciated that she was able to help us at short notice and was super flexible with our travel plans – even coming to our house to collect our dogs. And the regular pix and updates just added to the reassurance. We’ve already recommended Sarah to others. And would have absolutely no hesitation in using her again. Raymond – with Alfie & Betsy, March 2025.
