Meet Jean, our wonderful owner of Petpals Northallerton. With extensive knowledge of various animals, Jean has completed numerous animal and pet courses. Jean has cared for various types of pets over the years including: dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, guinea, birds, horses, chickens and sheep.

Jean has a long history of owning German Shepherds and is currently pet parent to Ola and Rocco, two extremely sociable German Shepherds.

Petpals Northallerton offers a 5-star luxury dog boarding experience, licensed by Richmond District Council. Jean’s home is set in a rural location where dogs can enjoy the use of her private 3-acre field, and in warmer months, have access to her doggy swim club swimming pool. For extra peace of mind, CCTV covers the entire property, keeping safety and welfare of your pets a top priority. Jean ensures your dog is made to feel at home and treats every dog as if it were her own, providing an excellent alternative to traditional dog kennels.

Dogs boarding are exercised and stimulated with an exercise program, or for the more senior dogs, they are permitted to exercise at their own pace using sniffing and plodding on Jean’s land, all under her supervision. Jean invites owners to first come and visit her home to introduce your dog to the Petpals Northallerton experience, of which, we’re sure you and your dog won’t be disappointed.

Services provided include: dog home boarding, doggy day care, small animal home boarding and a doggy swim club.

Jean also administers medication in all forms, such as insulin, for both cats and dogs and has access to a fantastic vet, who is close by and always on hand to deal with any emergencies that may present themselves.

At Petpals we are fully trained, insured, uniformed and DBS checked for your peace of mind.

Please note: We do not accept female dogs in season, if your dog should come into season during its stay with me please ensure it comes with “season pants”.

Petpals Richmond Profile Photo

I have lived in and around Catterick since 1997. After a career in the Army then teaching, I was looking for a fulfilling career where I could combine running my own business with my passion for animals. Starting a Petpals franchise was the perfect solution and I launched Petpals Northallerton in March 2010. I have now been running Petpals for over 15 years and during this time I have encountered most animals small and large and have completed extensive animal and pet courses, which can be viewed here.

I have a long history of owning German Shepherds and always take my dogs on holiday with me to Spain so I am able to offer sound advice on the Pet Travel Scheme.

I have 2 German Shepherds Zara and Rocco, both are extremely sociable. They meet many dogs each day and love to run with them on my 3-acre field at my home. I live in a rural location so great for dogs to let off a bit of steam. For extra peace of mind, we also have CCTV covering our property, keeping the safety and welfare of your pets a top priority.

I have looked after various types of pets over the years, dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, guinea, birds, horses, chickens and sheep. At Petpals I am fully insured and trained and also have a home boarding licence issued by Richmond District Council. To give you peace of mind your pet will always receive continuous service and be made to feel at home. I am also able to administer medication to your pets should their condition require it as I have experience of pets with Epilepsy, Diabetes, Osteoarthritis and incontinence.

On-going Pet Welfare Training, liaising with local community police, community groups and vets all assist in the provision of a friendly, flexible, professional and personally-tailored service that puts the pets first.

Cat care in their own home and dog boarding is particularly popular as an alternative to Catteries and Kennels, as both these services can be particularly stressful for your animals. Let me cater for them during holidays, weekends away and business trips. Allow me to take away the worries and stresses of having to accommodate your pet when you are unable to.

At Petpals we are fully trained, insured, uniformed and DBS checked. We are delighted to offer a flexible range of friendly, professional services that can be personally tailored to your requirements and your pet’s individual needs.
