Home Dog Boarding - RISK ASSESSMENT TEMPLATES

Home Dog Boarding Risk Assessment Template Pack

Risk assessments are one of those jobs that can feel deceptively simple until you actually sit down to write them.

What hazards should you include? How detailed do they need to be? What controls should you record? And how do you make sure they reflect the way your own home boarding business really works?

This editable pack gives you a practical starting point.

It includes three detailed, fully editable Microsoft Word documents covering:

• General Home Boarding
• Disease Transmission
• Fire Safety

The templates are already structured for you, with example hazards, who may be affected, suggested controls, further actions and review points.

They are also colour coded to make them easier to complete:

RED shows where you need to add or personalise information for your own business.

GREEN gives prompts and guidance to help you think through each section, then delete when finished.

The examples include the everyday and less-obvious risks that can arise in a home boarding setting, while still leaving you in control of adapting the assessments to your own home, garden, resident animals, household and operating arrangements.

These are not finished risk assessments to simply put your name on. They are designed to help you think through the risks properly and create documents that genuinely reflect how your business operates.

Included in your download:

• General Home Boarding Risk Assessment Template
• Disease Transmission Risk Assessment Template
• Fire Risk Assessment Template
• Start Here guidance

All templates are supplied as editable Microsoft Word documents, so you can personalise, add to and adapt them for your own business.

A practical way to get the structure in place without starting from a blank page.

For home dog boarding businesses in England. These templates are practical guidance and a starting point for your own assessments. They do not replace current legislation, your local authority’s requirements or professional advice.
