Doggy day care at the sitter’s home

Day care for while you are away
A doggy day care sitter will provide day time supervision and loving care for your dog in their home.
Daycare is a perfect choice for giving your dog additional enrichment during the day. Our sitters can also offer puppy daycare to give your puppy additional socialisation while they are young.
The personalised experience our sitters provide means that your dog can enjoy their day in a relaxed and safe, home environment. This is a much better alternative to crowded commercial dog daycare centres.

They say you have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince. After trying quite a few different dog sitters, I think we have finally found our princes. In fact, we seem to have found three of them: two wonderful 👬 and one very charming 🐕. I had been looking for the right people for some time. Marco and Johnny seemed warm, kind and genuinely sweet from the beginning, but naturally, I still wanted to see how things would go. The more time we spent with them, the more reassured I felt. They are both lovely individually, but together with Truffle they make such a wholesome little family 🌱💕. Their 🏡 is clean, organised and clearly very well cared for, and the moment I walked in, I could almost feel the weight lift from my shoulders. It gave me that rare sense that I could finally relax 🍵. More importantly, I feel genuinely at ease leaving my dog with them. There is a quiet confidence in the way they care for dogs. They pay attention to the little things, understand what matters, and somehow make you feel that they will know exactly what to do without needing endless instructions 😌. The communication is exceptional 🙏. They keep me updated throughout the day with photos and videos without my ever having to ask. And these are not hurried little updates sent simply because they feel obliged to send something. You can actually see the thought and affection behind them. The photos and videos are always lovely, thoughtful and somehow capture all the little moments that reassure you your dog is happy, relaxed and being genuinely cared for 😌☺️. 🐕 Truffle 🐕 deserves his own mention too. He is such a sweet, generous little host and gets along nicely with my dog. Seeing them comfortable together makes the whole experience even more reassuring 💕💕. Calling this a 5⭐️ experience almost feels inadequate. They are not simply dog sitters to us anymore. They are the sort of rare people you feel incredibly lucky to find and trust, and it already feels a little like leaving our dog with friends and family 🤍✨. 
 I am almost reluctant to write this review because, selfishly, I would quite like to keep them our little secret. But they absolutely deserve the shoutout. A very rare gem, and one I am so happy we finally found. Thank you very much, Marco, Johnny, and Truffle 🤍

I can’t recommend Katy highly enough! We were on holiday in the Lake District and, after a few days of climbing, our dog Louis had slightly rubbed his paws. We had planned to hike Scafell Pike and thought we might have to cancel, but I decided to look for a dog sitter. I messaged Katy and she replied straight away. She kindly agreed to look after Louis for 9 hours, and she and her mum took absolutely amazing care of him. Katy kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos, which was so reassuring. When we picked Louis up, it was clear that he had had the best time and was very happy and well looked after! Katy is such a lovely, kind and trustworthy person, and I would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you so much, Katy! 🐾❤️

Doggy daycare is great for giving your dog additional enrichment instead of leaving them alone during the day. For puppies, they would especially benefit from puppy daycare while they are learning to socialise.
