Stacy is amazing at putting your mind at ease and keeping you updated on how spoiled your whippet is. My Ted loved his stay ❤️

Our dogs absolutely love going to Whippet Retreat & I know I don’t have to worry about leaving them


Nikki Leonard, August 2023

The Whippet Retreat takes excellent care of our very nervous little dog. She has been treated like one of the family and has thoroughly enjoyed the extra long walks with her new whippet friends.

Because my dog loves it there and I feel safe leaving him with them. The owners clearly love the dogs and it’s a home away from home, with lots of walks and enrichment activities.

Adam Pollock, October 2022

Whippet Retreat Essex is such a dream come true for us and our 2 Whipps. Stacey (the owner), understands dogs and their requirements so well and is so helpful. Our two always have the best time when they stay here, both from zoomies with the other dogs and snoozing in the comfort of Whippet Retreat. If you have a sighthounds(s) and need boarding, or day care, I would highly highly recommend!


Emma French, October 2022

This is the only place I will take my baby. I am so so fussy and a huge worrier yet Stacey made me feel calm and happy to leave him with many updates for us. Kai didn't want to leave and loves going there every time. A dog pulling you to the door is a sure sign they love it.


Tracy Russell, October 2022

Jacqui Kempf, October 2022

They offer such personal care and our dog loves it there.


Craig Bush, October 2022

Stacey is the most amazing, caring, understanding dog handler ever! Totally gets whippets and their "unusual" ways. We tried 3 other kennels before W.R.E and they couldn't handle our Pluto. Within 2 minutes of meeting Stacey and her lovely family our dog felt at home.nit was amazing to witness.


Amanda Martin, October 2022

Stacey cares so much for whippets and sighthounds and she so knowledgeable. I wouldn’t trust mine to stay anywhere else.


Carlotta Jansen, October 2022

Stacey and her family (both human and fur) are so accommodating to their whippet/ sighthound guests. Our dog goes into her house with his tail wagging when we drop him off. He always gets love and attention from the fellow whippets to play with and cuddle time with the humans on the sofas. As a pet owner, Stacey is so attentive in her communications. Always sending us updates, to reassure us of his well-being. We love that she takes the dogs on walks every day to new exciting places for them to explore and equally allows them enough time in the day to relax. Her customer service is beyond excellent both for the dogs and their owners. On the more admin based side, she also has a really comprehensive questionnaire which allows you to note down all your dogs particular needs in terms of food, sleeping, medicine, behaviour and even favourite toy.


Simon Hoole, October 2022

Great service great price great communication a doggie updates, most of all my whippet loves visiting


Judy Laurence, October 2022

They treat your dog like their own.


Neil Lowes, October 2022

Stacey provides an amazing service. She really made the time to get to know and understand our dog, what makes him tick, what makes him nervous, what makes him happy/comfortable and personalised her approach to suit his needs. She makes a huge effort to keep the dogs entertained, lots of walks, fun and games and paddling pool in the summer! She also provides lots of reassuring updates while we are away to let us know our boy is having a great time.


Debbie Eden, October 2022

My puppy thoroughly enjoyed her time there. Regular updates and photos made me feel.so happy and less anxious of leaving her

Brilliant place with a lady who clearly does it for love.


Anthony Smith, October 2022

Wouldn’t leave my Whippet anywhere else! They treat each dog like part of the family!
