Steve was very responsive and Bella came home looking well and relaxed (although a little upset we didn’t take her to Disneyland!) I would have liked a message or two during her stay or even a picture just to reassure us but that’s not a big issue.

Steven was extremely warm and welcoming to Wellie and myself. He kept her active and busy throughout the day, and she was extremely happy upon return. Thank you Steven!

Doggy Day Care • Feb 23, 2025

Steve was fab with Penny who was clearly relaxed on pick up. Due to the nature of our visit in Richmond being a surprise party we needed some flexibility and Steve was more than happy to oblige. Would definitely book again if we're back in Richmond.

Schedule

Full time dog owner and parent to growing kids, my dogs get 3 good walks a day which usually involves river swims and plenty of rabbits to chase. I only take dogs with good recall and can be trusted off the lead if possible. Exceptions can be made depending on if they are a Labrador or really really cute.

Safety, trust & environment

My dog is free to roam about the house. Lack of garden is made up for by the Dales on my doorstep and the River Swale, which we visit often
