Doggy Day Care Ashfield

“Rolo really enjoyed his day. We even met Ione and her dog before he stayed which set my mind to rest knowing that he'd be okay there. Love the photos of him from the day too.”

“I was very nervous about leaving Tucker with anyone, as he is a very anxious dog around both people and other dogs. From the very beginning, Chloe’s communication was fantastic. She was happy to meet beforehand and do a meet-and-greet so Tucker could be introduced in a calm, relaxed way, which immediately put me at ease. The way Chloe interacted with Tucker made me feel comfortable straight away. When we dropped him off yesterday, her communication continued to be excellent. She kept me updated on how he was settling in and sent regular updates throughout the day, including lots of photos, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be using Chloe again. In fact, I’ve already booked her for next month and plan to continue doing so to help Tucker build familiarity and confidence. We’ll then be introducing overnight stays, which will make such a difference for us as a family, knowing we finally have a reliable and caring person to look after him when needed.”

“Sabina was amazing, she was super accommodating with my puppy and the communication was fantastic, despite the fact it was super last minute, can't recommend her enough. I got regular photos and updates which was really nice given it's the first time we have been apart. I would take my pup back anytime”

Adam S.

“Superb! It was Lottie's first stay with Brian, she had a wonderful time. From my initial enquiry to pick up Brian communicated promptly, answered all my questions and put my mind at rest. During the day he sent photos and gave updates on their adventures. He listened and took time to get to know Lottie and her individual needs. I couldn't have asked for more. Will definitely book again.”

“My dogs had a fabulous day and didn’t miss us at all. Very happy with the service received and would highly recommend Ben (and Noah)!”

About: Hi, I'm Emma! I'm a fully licensed and insured pet carer with a Level 3 Diploma in Canine Care & Management, as well as Pet First Aid certification. Caring for animals has always been my passion. I grew up on my family's farm, where I helped hand-rear lambs, calves, and foals. From there, I went on to work with horses, greyhounds, and hunting hounds, giving me experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. I started my pet care business because I struggled to find someone I truly trusted to look after my beloved pug, Teddy. That experience inspired me to create the kind of service I was looking for myself—a safe, loving, home-from-home environment where every pet is treated like one of the family. Whether your dog loves long walks, cuddles on the sofa, or simply having company throughout the day, I'll make sure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve. My priority is ensuring both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and confident while you're apart. Pet care at In The Doghouse is around the clock! Our bed is your bed, your pets needs is my priority, they're not just your family they're mine too. I have a fully secure good sized garden with plenty of toys. Double locked gate, with CCTV. Dog cam is also used inside the home.

“For a first time ever at daycare I'm really pleased. Obi is a nervous little guy sometimes and Dilma and co. really helped Obi feel comfortable. He even had a little nap which I was surprised at. I didn't know if he was going to be able to settle in a strange environment. Will definitely be coming back for another play day x”

About: Dog lady, love dogs! Owner and carer of dogs for 20yrs. Recently studying dog behaviour course and have clients for both dog walking and behaviour therapy. Kisses and cuddles a plenty!! I’m a (young) retired teacher. Retrained as a dog behaviourist. I have two primary age children and need to be around for school pickup and drop off but I’m flexible with the rest of my time. I’m available Monday to Friday I have a fenced garden and two crazy fun pupsters to play with your fur baby if they enjoy play. Or an 11 yr old guy who likes to snooze if that’s what your little one prefers. Alternatively, for dog walking I have a dog mobile that I can pick up and safely collect and return your furry family member. I never walk more than three dogs at a time and by arrangement can walk separately if needed. I’m calm and patient and love my time with four legged friends so, their health and safety is paramount to me at all times 😍

“Amazing sitters, our little puppy had a great time and we will definitely be back. thankyou so much for the short notice and for being so flexible.”

About: I've taken care of dogs for my entire life. From alsatians to chihuahuas I've looked after them all and know that no two dogs are the same but all dogs deserve love and attention. I'm currently working part time and from home so I have plenty of time for cuddles and snuggles. Having your companion will be my excuse to move between online meetings meaning we are looking after each other. I have a fenced garden and live on a very quiet estate with country walks and fields less than 5 minutes away. We have an open plan living room so even in the house there is room to wander.

“In today's busy world we all need people like Sue there to help us out when needed. She looked after Cassie for me when I really needed someone. Both myself and Cassie were very happy with the service she provided and would recommend her to look after your pup.”

“Ming is super friendly and really good with my elderly dog pips x”

“Toby loved his first stay and can’t wait to have more, two walks, cuddles and treats. Jordan and her parents are brilliant and Toby was so well looked after. Pictures and updates were fab x”

About: I have been passionate about dogs my entire life, having grown up with them and always surrounded by their wonderful company. I currently have two dogs of my own, who are truly part of the family, and I extend that same love and care to every dog that stays with me. I have extensive experience working with dogs, including volunteering at my local dog grooming parlour, where I handled a variety of breeds and sizes. For the past 6 years, I have been running my own dog boarding and daycare business, and I absolutely love it! My home is a semi-detached house with a spacious, fully enclosed grassed garden, secured with 6ft fencing for safety. Right across the street, there is a large playing field where I take dogs for walks at least twice a day—this is always included in the service. I take great pride in providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog in my care, ensuring they feel right at home. As I run my dog boarding and daycare business full-time from home. My entire week is dedicated to ensuring that every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved. Each day includes plenty of playtime, walks, and one-on-one attention, with at least two walks a day on the large playing field just across from my home. I also make sure to follow each dog’s individual routine, whether that’s meal times, training, or quiet rest periods. Because I’m home all week, I can provide constant supervision and companionship, creating a stress-free and enjoyable environment for every dog that stays with me. Their well-being and happiness are always my top priority! In my home, dogs enjoy a secure, spacious setting with a fully enclosed garden for play and exercise. Each day includes plenty of supervised socialization, enrichment activities, and at least two daily walks. I tailor my care to each dog's individual needs, following their usual feeding, exercise, and rest routines to help them feel at ease.

About: I have five years of personal experience caring for my own dog. He is now 9 years old and lives with my mum in Ukraine, but he was part of my everyday life for five years. Caring for him taught me a lot about a dog’s daily routine, walks, feeding, playtime and the importance of patience and attention. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I always try to make them feel safe, comfortable and happy. Although I’m new to Rover, caring for my own dog has given me genuine hands-on experience with dogs. I would treat every dog in my care with the same patience, kindness and attention that I gave my own. I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I can usually accommodate morning, afternoon and early evening bookings. I’m happy to discuss specific days and times with each owner and will always make sure I can give each pet the time and attention they need. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and cared for. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and take the time to understand their dog’s routine, personality and individual needs. During walks, I keep dogs secure and pay close attention to their surroundings and behaviour. I always use the equipment provided by the owner and follow their instructions regarding leads, treats and other routines. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets have everything they need, including fresh water, food if requested, and plenty of attention and playtime. I treat every pet with patience, kindness and respect, and I will always contact the owner if I have any concerns or notice anything unusual.

“Megan has been just perfect, she was super friendly, accommodating and looked after our dog wonderfully. She kept us up to date and sent regular pictures to show how much of a good time he was having. We will 100% be booking future daycare and overnights with Megan for sure. Megan thank you so much for taking care of our boy, we are so pleased he now has a new girlfriend too! :)”

About: I had 2 beautiful staffies that have now passed on due to old age and I know how hard it is to find good people to look after your pet last minute or even for holidays or days out, I miss having dogs but like to travel so can no longer be a permanent dog owner, but I'm happy to share the love and look after your furry friends In your time of need. I have experience looking after cats and dogs in my adult life and had various other pets as a child (all had fur or feathers) I do not allow animals on my furniture or on/in my bed, these are my non negotiables as I like the spaces I use to relax to be free of dog hair and dirt. This doesn't change the fact that your pet will be loved and fussed (if that's what they like) I prefer dogs to have a crate as my 2 loved theirs and it helps keep boundaries in the home, however, I am flexible with each pets individual care needs, I can sleep downstairs or have your pet sleep in their bed in my bedroom if needed for anxious pets or those used to sleeping in bed with their owners. I would prefer a visit/meet before any official booking to ensure I am the right fit for your pet and vise versa, but I appreciate this won't always be possible, communication is key, as I want to offer the best care possible for your pet. I have experience in crate training, muzzle training and puppy/toilet training. I have also have experience with teaching dogs of all ages new tricks, commands and stimulating their minds so they are more receptive to learning. I have been looking after other people's dogs before for years including family members, friends and a few friends of friends. Ive had dogs stay with me for weeks at a time too. Whatever your needs are give me a shout, I used this service myself for my boy years ago and was very anxious to leave him with a stranger so please ask any questions you may have, I'm an open book. I work from home on certain days of the week, this can change as sometimes I may need to visit clients but this is rare and usually pre planned. Pets will be walked first thing in the morning before work and then again after work, or whatever is required for each individual. It's important and animal is stimulated and gets exercise if they are able. I have a small grass back garden that is fenced off for fresh air and toilet needs, there is a park 2 minutes form my house for walks etc. I don't currently have any pets at home

About: Hi, 🌼 I've taken care of dogs & cats my whole life, having owned Golden retrievers, Springer Spaniels, Great Danes, Border Terriers and Cockerpoos. 🐾 I currently own two lovely Springer Spaniel girls between 1 and 2. They are very sociable and well trained. 💛 I offer weekday boarding, weekend boarding and doggy day care weekdays and weekends. I will do my best to accommodate for emergency bookings. 🫶 You can trust me to provide care for your animals as if they were my own. 🐶 Your dog will need to be friendly with other dogs and humans. Neutered males only please (don’t want any cute little accidents!) or intact/spayed females. ✨️ I am mindful that each animal has a different level of need, so I will discuss this with you before booking to ensure everyone is comfortable. 🐶 I can send regular pup-dates to put your mind at ease and have experience administering medication. 🌳 I am lucky to live close to some lovely scenic walks. We walk at least twice a day and I have a large garden for them to play in. Note: your dog will need to be friendly with other dogs and neutered if male, they may be left alone for longer stays, as I can have visits in the weekday Tuesday - Friday. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. 🐶❤️😺 The dogs have a minimum of 1 walk daily for up to 2 hours, they also receive enrichment throughout the day and meal times twice daily in the morning and evening. I have a large secure garden, I can provide regular toilet breaks and play time, including walks around the local woods and fields. I can provide off or on lead walks.

“My dog was extremely happy and anxiety to have some play buddies for a couple of hours! He was well looked after and I’m extremely grateful especially when it was such short notice! Thankyou so much! Highly recommend”
