About Us - Oscars at Home

About us

Oscars at Home was established in 2025 to provide a home-like experience for dogs in need of care while their owners are away. Our team is passionate about animals and committed to treating your pets like family. We understand that every dog has unique needs, and we strive to make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

We've been in your shoes and have previously struggled to find the right place to leave our dogs whilst going away. Which is why we've created Oscars at home, and insist on meeting you and you dog first, as well as having a comprehensive assessment form about your dog.

Be part of our Family

Loving Care for Your Furry Friends

Book a stay with us today and give your dog the home away from home they deserve! Our devoted team is ready to offer a loving and safe environment.

We are currently taking bookings for school holidays and weekends in 2025. In exceptional cases we will book outside this - please contact us to see if we can accommodate you.

We will only ever have a maximum of 2 dogs staying at one time - in addition to our lurcher Izzy.

There may be small people staying here at times, so it is important that your dog is ok with children.

Who we are ...

A family who want to provide the best home boarding care for your pet

Pauline, Linzi, Mark and Izzy!

Pauline is retired and loves to spend her days in the garden or relaxing in the "nannexe". She has owned dogs for years and loves to spoil them rotten! Linzi and Mark are the proud owners of Izzy, and have grown up around dogs. They love long walks on the common or along the beach (sorry if this sounds like a dating profile!!) but will always have the fire going on a chilly night to keep everyone warm.

Here we have 2 homes for them to chose from, with Izzy going between the two and making the most of the secure garden.

Linzi is OFQUAL level 2 dog first aid trained and working towards a level 3 qualification.

Meet and Greet

Come see us and make sure we are the right fit

Its really important that you feel relaxed leaving your dog with us, so before we take any booking for the first time, we'd like you to meet us - and us meet you!

This can be arranged at any time and is completely free. Dates will be reserved whilst we arrange this (held only for 7 days) and the assessment form can be filled out whilst your dog gets to know us and our home.

Not the right people for you? - We won't be offended! Like we've said, we've been in your shoes so appreciate that we might not be the right fit for you.
