Doggy Day Care Norwich

About: As a dog owner for over 4 years, I have hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, basic grooming, administering medications when needed, and providing a safe and loving environment. Caring for my own dog has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs. I treat every pet like family and strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide pets with consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the day. Daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and potty breaks are already part of my routine, ensuring pets receive plenty of supervision and affection while in my care. Pets in my home are treated like part of the family. I live in a house with a secure fenced yard, giving dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, and explore. I also have a friendly 4 year old golden retriever who enjoys companionship and can be a great playmate for social dogs.

“Sapphire loves going to Claudia’s. She has gotten to know Claudia and that makes it easier for me to leave her for the day. She enjoys playing with the other dogs.”

“This was the first time I ever left Gracie with strangers. As soon as I met Alma she put my mind at ease. I could tell she was a dog lover. She was very relaxed and didn’t worry one bit about Gracie’s separation anxiety and managed to introduce Gracie to other dogs without any incident. I’d be happy to leave Gracie with Alma any time.”

“Amazing!! She did so much with them, constantly sent photo’s and videos of what they were doing and the dogs were having a blast! I would highly recommend! Great with the dogs and an all around great person!”

About: Great with dogs! I’m patient, playful, and reliable, with experience in basic training, socializing, and creating safe routines. Can be a good friend for them Since I work full-time from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available for walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day! We create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment, free of hazards and full of love. We follow each dog’s routine closely—meals, walks and play. We keep pets secure, never leave them unattended outdoors, and provide constant supervision and affection. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always our top priorities.

About: Over 30 years of dog ownership and care. I am a retired Pharmacy Technician so I have lots of experience with medications and administration. Large property for exercise. Indoor area for playtime. We’ll treat your furry friend like we do our own, showering them with love, cuddles, and treats while following your dog’s specific diet requirements. I’m a retired pharmacy technician, so I’m very familiar with medications and administration. My husband works nights, so there’s always someone here to have naps with. We have over 10 acres of land, including about 8 acres of bush with walking paths. There’s a fully fenced dog run attached to the house for bathroom breaks. We have a large room dedicated to indoor play and rest, and a large, cleared outdoor area for playing fetch and water activities when the weather is nice. There’s plenty of shade for relaxing on hot days. We’ve always dreamed of running a boarding kennel or daycare. As dog owners for over 30 years, we’ve mostly had more than one dog at a time. Years ago, we even had a litter of eight Labs! Currently, we have three dogs: Jenny, a retriever mix female we helped rehome when she was 10 months old; Oscar, our 8-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog; and Maverick, our 4-year-old Red Retriever. We also have our grand puppy, Cooper, a 4-year-old Basset Hound, who lives in an attached apartment with our son, daughter-in-law, and grandson. Cooper is with us when his parents work. All dogs are welcome on the furniture and beds. We’re non-smokers and have elderly parents, one in a wheelchair, living with us. We also have a new baby in an attached apartment.

“Cooper had such a great time with Alison! He was a very tired pup when he got home! She provided updates throughout the day and was very responsive to any questions. We will definitely be using her again when we need a dog sitter! ?”

About: I have over 12+ years of dog ownership experience as well as 3+ years experience in dog adoption/fostering. Taking care of other people's pets is second nature to me. As a dog owner myself, I understand that it is stressful to relinquish control of your pets care to someone else. I was caught up in the business of the 9-5 workday and stressed to find care for my dogs that was personable and affordable. I have recently lost my job and in the midst of looking for work, I decided to open up my home to some furry friends! **I am only able to provide care from 8am-6pm daily for doggy daycare** I am currently searching for my next job opportunity since being laid off. I have daily available during the work day with overnight care offered if needed. I have a fully fenced, large yard as well as two dogs of my own. The care for your dog would be directly in my home, they wouldn't be outside all day/ignored. If the weather is bad, we may just sit back and watch TV after playtime! My dogs are very friendly and playful but I do have a dachshund who is very small, therefore I can only accept dogs that are 40lbs and under.

“Our first choice for our pup whenever we are in the area. Dalia and her husband are both wonderful and have shown so much love and care for our dog Nova. Thank you so much!”

Olivia L.

“Ashley has been an amazing help! Several times she has been available for a last minute booking which has really helped us out. Our dog gets very excited as soon as we pull up to her street and comes home so tired, we get a bonus relaxing evening off as he doesn’t ask for his typical “after dinner” walk. Thanks so much, looking forward to Ben’s next stay!”

Vanessa R.

“This is our first time having someone to look after our ‘lad’ and we’re so so happy with Andrea for doing so. Andrea updated us with all our concerns and we’re just overjoyed our pup has got meet and make new friends and socialise. Something he hasn’t been able to do too much lately by just walking. Plenty of pictures and updates throughout the days. Pretty sure he’s going to be at the front door in the morning wondering when he’s going back! Can’t recommend anyone more highly! Five stars PLUS.”

David P.

“Helios loves these sitters! They’ve watched him so many times and he’s just so excited to go to them. I can’t recommend them enough. They are amazing!”

Jennifer E.

“As it was Malcolm first time we were a little worried but Princy and Maui made him feel right at home. The updates with pictures put a smile on our faces and Malcolm will definitely be seeing them soon!”

Shernette B.

“Henry had a great first stay with Britt and was definitely tired when we brought him home after playing all day. Good updates throughout the stay and felt very comfortable leaving our little guy in her hands”

Trevor D.

“She is wonderful! Liam loved her right away during the meet and greet. From the very first sitting, she went above and beyond. She was supposed to walk Liam and leave him at our house while we were away, but after receiving the hurricane amber alert, she immediately went to check on him and offered to take him to her home. We’re very happy to have found someone we can truly count on in town.”

“Jessica was amazing. She took care if my senior boy really well, she gave me timely updates on how he was doing. My boy has extreme separation anxiety and Jess was able to comfort him and provide him a secured environment. I am very happy with her service. She will be my first preference when I need a sitter in the future.”

“I have a mini daschund who comes with A LOT of personality. Mathieu, Esther and Marlow were the perfect trio for my little guy. Mathieu and Esther are kind, confident and and calm. And Marlow is their gentle and playful golden retriever. I’m not kidding when I say my dog came back home grinning ear to ear. He was hopping around like he just had the best night out. This warmed my heart. 10/10 would recommend”

“As owners taking our 9 month old Whippet to daycare for the first time ever, Chetan put all our apprehensions to rest. Our pup Ripple excelled under Chetan's care. She absolutely loved him and loved the farm. Chetan would send videos and answer any questions we might have had. His hours are very accommodating for a busy lifestyle. If you want a tired and content dog at the end of the day, Chetan's farm is highly recommended!”
