Doggy day care
*We are currently accepting new clients*
Dogs thrive in an environment where they feel calm, confident, and secure.
Our boutique-style doggy day care provides a structured yet relaxed setting where dogs can socialise safely, enjoy balanced play, practise good manners, and just as importantly learn how to settle around other dogs.
Each day is thoughtfully designed to include physical exercise, mental enrichment, rest, and handler engagement.
For owners who want more than just a place to leave their dog, and for dogs who thrive in a calmer, more thoughtful setting, our doggy day care is the ideal choice.
Price
Full-Day Care (7am to 7pm) costs £35
This rate covers up to 12 hours of care. You’re welcome to drop off later or collect earlier if that’s more convenient for you.
Flexible Hourly Care
We offer flexible hourly bookings if you do not require a full day of care.
-
£4 per hour for one dog
-
£3 per hour for each additional dog from the same household
Due to the limited number of spaces available, we strongly recommend booking day care in blocks of four weeks or more, especially during our busiest periods (summer, bank holidays, and Christmas).
Spaces are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and we do not offer booking contracts.
Bookings can be secured with a 50%
non-refundable deposit, which is deducted from the total cost. The remaining balance must be paid no later than 48 hours before drop-off.
A meet and greet and a trial day are mandatory for all new dogs.
The meet and greet is free of charge, and the trial day is charged at the standard rate of £35.
If, for any reason, we believe that your dog is not settling well, is displaying behaviour that makes them unsuitable for our home environment, or we determine that we are unable to safely continue the trial, the trial may be ended early.
In these circumstances, 50% of the trial fee is non-refundable. This amount covers the time spent carrying out the Meet & Greet, preparing contracts and paperwork, administration, and reserving a space for your dog's trial.
Owner Availability During the Trial
During the Trial Night or Trial Day, the owner (or a nominated emergency contact) must remain available and able to collect their dog at any time if requested.
For this reason, we ask that you do not arrange holidays, day trips, special events, or any other commitments that would prevent you from collecting your dog promptly should the trial need to be ended early.
This requirement helps ensure your dog's welfare and allows us to make the best decision for all dogs in our care if the trial is not progressing as expected.
Day care Hours
Our daycare is available from 7am to 7pm,
7 days a week.
What We Offer
✓ We run our dog care from our home, creating a calm, safe, and homely environment, a great alternative to large, busy daycare facilities that may not suit every dog.
✓ Our property includes a secure garden and a private adjoining field, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play.
✓ All playtime takes place in carefully managed groups and is always supervised to ensure safe and positive interactions between dogs.
✓ Dogs enjoy a balanced day that includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and time to rest and relax.
✓ Exercise and activities are tailored to each dog’s age, energy level, and individual needs.
✓ We follow your guidance on feeding, routines, and training to keep your dog’s stay consistent and comfortable.
✓ Short training sessions are included, helping dogs stay mentally stimulated and practice good manners while you’re away.
Dog Requirements
➤ We welcome small to medium dogs up to 15kg (this also applies to puppies of larger breeds). Dogs expected to exceed this weight limit cannot be accommodated.
➤ All dogs must be fully vaccinated and up to date with boosters, including Distemper, Parvovirus, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, and Kennel Cough.
➤ For the safety and comfort of all dogs in our care, we cannot accept dogs that are not properly socialised or that show aggression towards people or other dogs.
➤ Unneutered males are not accepted.
We do accept male dogs that have been chemically castrated as an alternative to surgical neutering.
The implant must be administered at least 4 weeks prior to the start of the stay. This allows sufficient time for hormone levels to stabilise and for the full effect of the implant to take place.
Proof from your veterinarian confirming the date of implantation will be required.
➤ Females do not need to be spayed, but we cannot accept females in season. Owners must monitor heat cycles carefully.
➤We do not accept dogs with significant lead reactivity, including dogs that consistently bark, lunge, or react towards other dogs, people, cyclists, or vehicles on walks.
What Our Clients Say
"Stumbled across Ula & Maks by chance, and what a lucky find!. They’ve been absolutely wonderful with my puppy, Nova. From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in caring hands. Throughout the day, they sent me lovely updates and adorable pictures, which really put my mind at ease. Nova always comes home tail-wagging and full of joy clearly he’s had a great time! I couldn’t ask for better carers."
