The Doggy Day Care With A Difference

Most daycares force dogs into large groups. Our individual care model is purpose-built for dogs who need a calmer, tailored approach. 

​

The Nervous or Overwhelmed Dog 

​

Reactive or selective dogs

​

Senior or low-energy dogs 

​

Intact/Unspayed Dogs 

​

Dogs with specific routines

​

Or simply you don't want your dog picking up bad habits

​

Lunchtime – Rest & Recuperation

Mid-Morning – 1:1 Stroll

Once settled, your dog heads out for their first dedicated activity of the day. Every guest enjoys an individual, solo walk with a caring team member along quiet, scenic public paths. Because we never walk dogs in group packs, your dog receives total one-on-one attention, allowing them to sniff, explore, and exercise at their own natural pace without the distraction or stress of unfamiliar dogs.

Afternoon Exploration

As the day winds down, your dog enjoys a second walk focused on mental stimulation and gentle movement. It’s the perfect way to burn off any remaining energy before heading home.

Arriving & Settling In

 Morning drop-offs take place during our flexible opening hours between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM. Upon arrival, each guest is individually welcomed and settled straight into their own private, cosy day care suite. We take time to check in with you on any special instructions for the day before letting your dog decompress with fresh water and comfortable bedding, ensuring they feel calm, secure, and ready for their individual morning walk. 

After their morning adventure, dogs enjoy a vital quiet period in their own private suite to rest, digest, and recharge. Lunch and treats are served to those on a afternoon feeding schedule, followed by gentle cuddles and low-energy enrichment games. This essential rest period prevents overstimulation, keeping your dog calm, comfortable, and refreshed for their afternoon activities.

Daily Routine

After a full day of 1:1 walks, quiet rest, and dedicated attention, your dog winds down comfortably in their suite. By the time you arrive, they are calm, content, and wonderfully satisfied from a day tailored entirely to them. We’ll give you a brief handover update on their walks, meals, and mood, sending your dog home happy, relaxed, and ready for a peaceful evening on the sofa with you.
