About Halo Dogs

London’s Trusted Home for Dog Care Since 2009

In 2009, I struggled to find a safe place for my own dog that offered more than basic kennels. I wanted expert care, exercise and personal attention in an environment where dogs could feel relaxed and happy. That experience inspired Halo Dogs—a dog hotel in London built around canine wellbeing and owner peace of mind.

Today, Halo Dogs is a 5-star licensed luxury dog hotel and boarding centre in North London, offering overnight stays, adventure daycare, professional training and rescue rehabilitation across 540 acres of countryside.

Really pleased I rented out Halo Dogs for an hour! The space was very clean, secure and absolutely gorgeous. My dog and family had such a lovely time. I can’t explain how great it is to have found a safe space where my dog can be completely off lead and enjoy herself, especially after she was attacked a few years ago in London. Having somewhere private and secure gives me such peace of mind. 5 stars from me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ll definitely be using Halo Dogs regularly!

Visited their dog park today with all of my family dogs - 13 in total. we had an amazing time. The park was clean, neat and tidy. Had everything you would need to enjoy the day. Well built and maintained shelters with seating, powerful fans to keep us all cool, and heaters if you go in winter. Lots of enrichment stuff and plenty of shading in the fields if your dogs are like ours and cant sit still lol. Available water source and bowls, a sprinkler system for the dogs to play in the water. More of a dog wonderland than 'just a park to hire'. Will absolutely be coming again in the future.

I booked the dog park for an hour today for my two 3 year old American Akitas. As soon as I arrived a member of staff named David welcomed me and gave me a full tour of the dog park. He was very welcoming and friendly and answered all my questions. He had really great customer service. The park has two different areas; a grass area with a large sand pit, slide, mound, ‘tree house’ giant tires for the dogs to run through and three shade sails which is perfect for the summer months. There is also a large seating area with four fans The second area had concrete paving slabs, a large concrete tunnel which my 45kg American Akitas managed to run through with ease. And a second seating area also with fans. Both areas were super clean and not a single dog mess in sight. There were no broken apparatus/equipment. The park has a dog bin for dog waste and a hose pipe tap for water, and even though I bought my own water bowl, Halo dogs actually provide water bowls for you, which I never knew. One of my dogs is an escape artist, but that wasn’t an issue here, as the door had a bolt at the top, so there was no way for him to escape. You can clearly see from how well kept the park is that Halo dogs really care about the safety and enjoyment of dogs. My boys absolutely loved the dog park, they are large dogs and they had loads of room to run around freely, all equipment was strong enough for them to continuously jump on or run through. My boys loved the park so much they completely exhausted themselves out playing, to the point they both laid down whilst drinking their water. I will definitely be booking this dog park again.

We are so grateful to have found Halo dogs. We live in central London without a car with our 5 year old Weimaraner so the fact Halo run such a seamless pick up and drop off process is a huge help for us. Mr Darcy gets excited when he sees them arrive for him, a sure sign he loves going to stay. The daily emails with photos are great. It’s so nice seeing him and hear who he is playing with. And the personal nature of them helps us know he is truly being himself and Halo have taken the time to get to know him and his big personality. He comes home looking so healthy and well cared for. Mr Darcy is also on daily medication and it’s so nice knowing how great Halo are making sure he gets this at the right times each day. Thank you Halo.

All I can say is what an amazing place! I booked to go on a day where it was very hot. I was a bit apprehensive about taking the dogs as I wouldn’t usually walk them in the middle of the day when it was as hot as it was. When I arrived the staff were amazing. They put up extra sails to give the dogs more shade and there’s a great seating area with picnic benches. The staff put the fans on for us which was great for the dogs to come and cool down in. There’s hoses and water bowls so could keep the dogs constantly topped up with water and spray them down too which helped keep them cool! It’s a great sized area and very private which is also good as I have a dog who can be reactive to other dogs. I would definitely go again and recommend to others. Great for training or just to let the dogs roam free, peace of mind 🙏🏻

I honestly can’t recommend Halo Dogs enough. My son has been doing work experience here for the past three years through his SEND school, and it has completely exceeded anything we could ever have hoped for. Every Monday is the highlight of his week. He proudly calls Halo Dogs his “workplace” and genuinely feels like a valued member of the team. The most amazing part is that he used to be terrified of dogs, yet now he can’t wait to spend time with them each week – especially Stanley the sausage dog! Seeing that transformation has been incredible. The kindness, patience and care shown by everyone at Halo Dogs is simply outstanding. They’ve given my son confidence, a sense of belonging and so much pride. As a parent, I will always be grateful. Thank you for everything you do – you really are amazing.
