About Us

In-Home Dog Boarding in the Heart of South West France — Where Your Dog Is Family

At Doggie Faire BnB, we offer something you simply won’t find in a kennel: a real family home, a real sofa, and real love — for your dog, every single day.
We’re Not a Kennel. We’re a Home.

My name is Steffie, and Doggie Faire BnB was born from a single conviction: dogs don’t just need to be “looked after” — they need to feel safe, loved, and at home. That’s why every dog who stays with us sleeps indoors, lives freely alongside our own family, and is treated as one of our own.

We are 100% cage-free and kennel-free. No runs, no crates, no isolation. Dogs curl up on purpose-built dog beds and sofas, potter around our garden, and enjoy the unhurried pace of a genuine family home in the Quercy region of South West France.

“The BnB in our name might suggest a hotel — but we are the opposite of a hotel. We are a home. Your dog’s home while you’re away.”


Small by Design. Personal by Nature.

We deliberately keep our numbers small. We only welcome a handful of dogs at any one time — not because we can’t accommodate more, but because we won’t. Every dog deserves our full attention, and that’s exactly what they get.

From the moment your dog arrives, our focus is entirely on them: reading their body language, understanding their routine, and making sure they settle in with confidence. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax and enjoy your time away, knowing exactly how they’re doing.


Our Five Pillars of Care

🏡 True home environment — Cage-free, kennel-free, and 100% domestic. Dogs live as family members, not guests in a run.

🤝 Meet & Greet first — Every new dog has a trial session to ensure pack harmony and a stress-free first stay.

📸 Daily updates — Photos and videos via WhatsApp so you stay connected while you travel.

💊 Medication & special needs — We handle medications and individual routines with care and precision.

🌿 Peaceful Quercy setting — Fresh air, open garden, and the calm of rural South West France.


A Trusted Choice for Expat Pet Parents

Many of our families are British, American, or international expats living in the Lot, Tarn, Aveyron, and surrounding areas — pet parents who know what quality care looks like and won’t compromise on it. We understand the expat lifestyle, we speak English, and we understand that your dog is not just a pet. They’re family.

Whether you need overnight boarding, doggie day care, or simply a trial meet-and-greet to see if we’re the right fit — we’d love to hear from you.
