Zen & Wouaf

Family dog boarding in Crusnes, near Luxembourg

A home, a family, and a holiday for your dog too.

At Zen & Wouaf, I welcome your dog into my detached house with its fenced garden. On the programme: play, walks and rest, in a family atmosphere. I look after no more than three dogs at a time, so each one gets the attention they deserve, with their habits and their pace respected.

A home, not a kennel

Zen & Wouaf is your dog's home while you are away: the comfort of a real house, the calm of the countryside and someone watching over them all day long.

A room of their own

Every dog sleeps in a real guest room with their bed and their own things. No crates, no pens, no forced cohabitation.

Three guests maximum

We never host more than three dogs at a time. Each one gets genuine attention, tailored walks and a routine that is respected.

Games, sniffing sessions and naps in the sun: the fenced garden is open all day, always supervised.

    The booking

    Send your request with your dates. We confirm availability and the details of the stay.

    The daily report

    You receive news and photos every day, until they are back home with you.

Stays that fit your schedule

Commuter hours and travel plans rarely fit neat time slots, so the stay adapts to yours.

A meeting running long or a delayed flight: picking your dog up in the evening is never a problem.

Pickup and drop-off

On request we collect your dog or bring them back home, on either side of the border.

Simple, honest rates

Billing is per half day: you only pay for the time your dog actually spends with us.

Indicative amounts: the exact rate is confirmed at the meet and greet, depending on the season and your dog's needs.
