Start with First daycare visit. Every new dog starts with a first visit. We’ll talk through these days with you there.
Company, play and proper rest.
A good daycare day isn’t non-stop. We plan each dog’s day around how they enjoy company, how they like to play and how much rest they need, using the notes you give us.
At pickup we’ll tell you how it went and anything worth knowing for next time.
Their first day
Company
Time with the right dogs, chosen around how your dog enjoys company. Some love a crowd, others prefer one or two friends.
Play
Puzzle toys, games and space to explore, with a team member nearby. We follow their lead and step in when they need a break.
Proper rest
A quiet room and a soft bed in the middle of the day. A good daycare day has as much rest as play.
On Birch Walk, in the middle of Northbridge.
Easy to reach on the way to work. Plenty of our dogs come from Northbridge itself, and from Cedar Vale, Willow Ridge and Westmere nearby.
