A true home from home experience, our daycare pupz have exclusive use of our 4 acre centre and specially designed doggy gardens. The whole day is planned around each and every dog we have with us; we cater for all ages and characters and are sympathetic to the different needs of each one. They are given the opportunity to play, sniff, chase, jump and rest; basically to just be a dog for the whole day with cuddles and treats thrown in free of charge!
Each day is structured which helps the dogs to settle and to know what to expect during their stay with us. Routine is a comfort for all of us, and dogs are no exception. Your dog will have fun socialising, learning new things and being part of a pack, which most dogs never have the opportunity to do. It is the most natural thing in the world for them, and often dogs will behave quite differently from the way their owners expect.
We operate much like a nursery, and owners pay for a place at daycare. It enables dogs in our care to make strong bonds with their doggy friends and ensures a more stable pack. We can get to know the dogs very well which makes our job a little easier in making sure that we are understanding body language and conversations that are taking place. It also means that we are not under pressure to fill spaces.
We are fully licensed by Tandridge District Council and are subject to an annual inspection
Our daily activities include hide & seek, finding hidden objects, ball games, group games, individual games, basic training, manners and time spent on issues that may be causing their owners problems. All dogs in our care are expected to be well mannered, corrected when necessary, but always with care and understanding. All of our training is reward based.
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to stop antisocial behaviour quickly to prevent injury to the dogs in our care.
In these instances a water gun may be used. We do not condone the use of any physical correction methods which may cause pain to your dog.
Winter can be especially challenging trying to keep the mud under control, but we will do our very best to ensure you don’t go home to a dirty pup or house; we clean all the 'mucky pupz' in our care when they've gotten into mischief.
We use dermatologically tested shampoo, they’re washed under a warm shower and dried. This is provided as a courtesy service when dogs have got themselves dirty however you may like to take advantage of our Grooming Services!
We took the conscious decision to aim our business at small/medium sized dog. We have no wish to be breed specific, as we firmly believe it is the owner's responsibility to ensure they have a well balanced, friendly, and well behaved dog and of course these come in all shapes and sizes.
We have, however, had the odd occasion where dogs have not been as well trained or socialised as they could have been. Each situation is different and owners will have varying views of their dog's behaviour and whether it is in fact a problem to them! However, a pack dog is a very different animal and any existing problems cannot be corrected by daycare, and can in some instances make them worse. Extreme size differences in dogs can cause major problems if not managed carefully.
Each dog is assessed before being allowed into daycare; but it isn't foolproof. It may take a few sessions for some problems to show. Owners naturally worry about their own dog whilst in daycare and we need to ensure that the environment is as safe as it possibly can be.
Our aim is to return your dog to you at the end of the day safely; tired, happy and contented.
No Dogs over 30 kilos!!
Please note: Your dog will require a 2hr assessment before being accepted into our care. We cannot accept females into daycare or homeboarding if they are due to be, or are in season. We prefer all dogs in our care to be neutered. We make an exception where puppies are concerned, as long as there is an intention to neuter as soon as possible.
There are occasions when it is advised by a veterinary surgeon not to neuter. If this is the case, and there are no detrimental effects on your dog's behaviour as a result, we may still be able to help. However, this is with our formal agreement and on the understanding that should your dog's behaviour change, or the behaviour of the pack changes towards your dog, we may consider withdrawing our services. You may register online and request an assessment or alternatively give us a call.

Neutering - We cannot accept females into daycare or homeboarding if they are due to be, or are in season. We prefer all dogs in our care to be neutered. We make an exception where puppies are concerned, as long as there is an intention to neuter as soon as possible.
There are occasions when it is advised by a veterinary surgeon not to neuter.

We discourage adhoc daycare as it has a tendency to unsettle the pack and it isn’t good for your dog if he is the newbie every time he visits. It is important that your dog is accepted by the pack and that his confidence isn’t adversely affected.
We only provide this service in very exceptional circumstances and certainly not as a matter of routine. In these instances, the following pricing structure applies:
-
Daycare is charged at £27.00 per day.
-
Transport can be provided, charged at £3.78 per journey.
-
Boarding is charged at £37.80 per night. (price includes daycare cost).
-
The last day of boarding attracts the usual daycare rate.
