Doggy Day Care in County Durham

“Kevin is a lovely chap. He clearly loves dogs and can give them plenty of attention and exercise. Bonnie settled quickly and made friends with Luna (super cute). We arranged a day to allow familiarity ahead of a three day stay. Really happy to have found a safe and friendly home from home ?”

“Marley had the best time with Sophie today. Sophie sent us lots of updates and photos of Marley throughout the day to let us know how he had settled. Marley is such a high energy dog but Sophie was brilliant with him and meeting his needs. Her communication is brilliant and is very responsive to messages. Marley also loved meeting and playing with his new doggy friend Riley. We would happily use Sophie again for dog sitting in the future. Thank you!”

“Rossi and Phantom love their time with Charlene and Forrest, they always come back exhausted and are excited when they get in the car and realise where we are going”

“Liam and Hannah were absolutely fantastic looking after my young dog, Toby. Leaving him was hard, especially as he struggles with separation anxiety, but they made the whole process so much easier. Toby seemed to settle in really well, which speaks volumes about the care and attention they gave him. I received regular updates, including videos of Toby playing with their dog, Beau, which was such a comfort and brought a huge smile to my face. They also took Toby on lots of walks, which he absolutely loves, and it was clear he was getting plenty of exercise and stimulation. I will definitely be using Liam and Hannah again in the future. Thank you both so much for looking after Toby so wonderfully!”

“Thank you so much . Ronson was clearly well looked after and being a nervous dog we felt very confident leaving him with you”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life and have trained or owned pups from every “walk” of life - from small to large, young puppies to elderly pooches, traumatized rescues to pampered pedigrees - I’ve loved them all and want to give your precious pup all the attention they deserve! ☺️ I have a precious pup of my own who loves to have new furry friends around! I like to spend a lot of time outside so walks and playing in the field are frequent. Otherwise, we’ll be found studying at one of the dog-friendly coffee shops. 🙂 I take frequent breaks from work to play with my pup so there is no shortage of affection and attention for dogs here! I also have several dog beds in my home office so if your pup likes to snuggle/sit on laps I’m always up for that while I work. 🐶

“We couldn’t really recommend Lynn enough after Hugo stayed a couple of days for doggy day care. Lynn was just excellent looking after Hugo. She was flexible when I got the dates wrong on our booking and had to change last minute. Communication was great and drop off and collection was really easy. She is super friendly and Hugo enjoyed his time there with her and her family and her dog Rosie who is a lovely dog. We got some lovely photos of Hugo on his walks and he had a great time. Next time we’re back in Durham we will be definitely using Lynn again! Thanks!”

“Angela was brilliant with our energetic pup Marley. She was very accommodating and flexible with our drop off and pick up times and took Marley on a lovely woodland walk. She sent lots of pictures and videos of Marley so we knew he was in good hands! We would definitely use Angela again in the future. Thank you!”

“Deacon has been going to Ruth for around 2 years for two days a week. Deacon barks with excitement when we drive up to her house and runs from the car to her gate. He has such a great time there. Ruth and her family always make a fuss of him. He has stayed over a few times and I can tell that his care is a priority with them. Totally reliable I would highly recommend Ruth as your dog sitter/boarder.”

About: I've been around animals my whole life, growing up with a large dog and later caring regularly for friends' dogs—and even the occasional rabbit. I'm now the proud owner of a 4-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Jinx and a playful Oriental Shorthair cat named Luna. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I go on daily walks and love exploring woodlands and beaches—because, let’s be honest, what’s life to a Spaniel without a daily swim? I currently work weekends, so I’m available most weekdays and would be thrilled to have your dog join Jinx and me on our everyday adventures! I have a reasonable sized, fenced garden. Pets are allowed on furniture/beds. Toilet breaks can be as needed. Regular walks and playtime are a guarantee.

About: I have took care of dogs for over a year now and I have had many praises for the care I put into my work. Dogs will be constantly fed, watered, walked and even trained upon requests. So I do work during the day, however my parter works from home so is able to take good care of them while I am away. I walk dogs before I go to work and as soon as I get back and then again in the evening. I have a large fenced garden for your dog as well as my own little pup to play fetch and other dog games to play.

About: Hi, I’m Pin Yi! I’ve always loved animals and have spent over five years caring for my three cats back home in Taiwan. Living with them taught me how to be patient, observant, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Since moving to the UK for my Master’s degree, I’ve really missed being around animals, so I’m excited to offer pet sitting and dog walking services here in a kind, caring, and trustworthy way. I’m currently a postgraduate student at Durham University with a flexible Term 3 schedule, which gives me plenty of time every day to care for pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare, and boarding—whether it’s for regular routines or occasional help. I’m happy to follow your pet’s needs and schedule to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Although I live in a quiet, pet-friendly student accommodation, I’m fully committed to providing safe and comfortable care. I’m happy to visit your home for feeding, walks, or companionship. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family, and I’m always careful to follow the owner’s instructions closely.

“Jinx had a great time with Kiera and Marley. Communication was excellent and we got regular picture and video updates. Will definitely be making a return visit!”

“Lily took excellent care of Trigger for the day, which was a huge help given the last-minute nature of the request. Communication was great, and Trigger thoroughly enjoyed himself. Would definitely ask Lily to help out again next time we're in the north east.”
