Aquithie Boarding & Quarantine Kennels & Cattery

I have so many wonderful things to say about Su and Aquithie Kennels. I recently arrived from the US with two dogs in tow--with the same paperwork. One was released to us the other put in quarantine. As we are based out of Scotland I chose Aquithie Kennels as it was the closest kennel that manages quarantine. I was distressed to put it mildly. I was able to connect with Su quickly and she immediately got the process started to transfer Shakko to Aquithie Kennels. Within a day of his arrival she and the vet were able to see that he met the requirements for entry and had been erroneously quarantined. Su then helped appeal Shakko's case quickly so he was back with me in ten days. Su went above and beyond to communicate with me regularly, even when I was perhaps messaging too much. She put me at ease and took time to educate herself on his breed and listen to my concerns. When I picked Shakko up he was in good spirits and had been well taken care of. Having never been kenneled before I was glad he went through it with Aquithie as I couldn't have asked for better care for him during this process. If you have to board or quarantine your dog in Scotland (or the UK) and don't know where to go, I recommend them with every fibre of my being. Su, her husband, and her team care about each of the animals and their human families that stay at Aquithie.

We have just taken our west highland terrier out of Aquithie kennels, after a 12 day stay. We have no doubt she enjoyed her stay. I would recommend them to anyone who has to board their pet. The staff were helpful when we boarded her and made sure she has everything she needed. They followed all our instructions that excluded her medication Well done Aquithie.

Our rescue dog was under the care of Su and Vicki at Aquithie during a quarantine period. We are so grateful for the love and care they gave our girl, especially during such a confusing time for her. When we came to pick her up it was clear she had such an amazing bond with both women, and that she had been well cared for by loving hands. Would highly recommend Aquithie both for quarantine and kennels. What special ladies they both are, I can't describe how grateful I am to them :)

While grateful to kennel maids for caring for my cat. I was disappointed to return & find a depressed cat staring from a high shelf at the floor A room without a view .A costly experience. In future I will be sure to book a window seat for my cat. Wendy/ JoJo.

Very unclear instructions on website led to me booking and then being turned away due to having followed the website instructions about vaccinations. Apparently they actually meant something completely different but I dont know how. So I was left with about 900 out of pocket, having to cancel a holiday with two days notice. Avoid. Lovely looking place. Batshit crazy old owner.
