About us

We are a family run business with a real passion for dogs and years of experience caring for them. We offer a safe environment with structure for your pooches to enjoy physical, mental and social stimulation, making new friends and exercising.

Our fresh new purpose designed facility benefits from plenty of space for your furry friends to grow, develop and learn.
We also have a quieter area with comfy beds for those who want to put their feet up between activities!

Assessments are carried out on all dog’s behaviour before they are accepted in to day care to ensure we maintain a friendly atmosphere giving you peace of mind. Vaccination records must also be presented to allow us to keep everybody healthy.

We use booking software through a free app that you download to your phone where you can make your bookings with ease and pay securely online.

If you would like your dog to spend some quality time with us and their new friends just get in touch and we can have a chat about what works best for you.

Safe, friendly fun for your best friend

Benefits of Doggy Day Care…

Safe Socialising

Whether your pooch is outgoing, or shy, it’s great for them and builds their confidence around other dogs in a safe environment. We will put dogs into groups that bring the best out in them.

Peace of Mind

Many dogs suffer separation anxiety when their owners are away. Know that your dog is safe and happy while you can get on with your day. Plus not coming home to chewed furniture and accidents is always a bonus.

Exercise

Dogs need lots of exercise to maintain a healthy lifestyle which benefits them not only physically but mentally too. Daycare gives them chance to run around and play, leaving them tired out before hometime.

Maintains Routine

Consistent routines and structure are important for dogs, just like they are for kids. Daycare can facilitate structure throughout the day that is more consistent with their preferred routines at home.

“Highly recommend top dog. Every time we drop him off he is very excited. Top dog keep me updated throughout the day with photos which I think is great, seeing what they get up to throughout the day. With him being a springer he is very hard to tire out but when he’s been here after a full day he is exhausted from all the play and love he gets at day care. I have recommended to all friends and family and look forward to sending him every week. Thank you“
