Doggy Day Care in Derby

“Parminder looked after my dachshund puppy for 5 days in a row whilst I had training with work- Dexter loved going to his home and was super excited to arrive every morning, and always came back happy and well looked after! I was updated regularly to let me know how he was getting on and always given great handovers and lots of info on how Dexter had been :)”

“Eve looked after our rescue staffie Daisy for the day and we'd happily recommend her. Communication was good, a meet and greet was easy to organise and Eve has plenty of experience with strong or reactive dogs.”

About: When I was born our family dog was 6 months old so U can really say I've grown up with dogs. Milly my Toy poodle has had pups and I just love caring for and training little ones. Just the perfect place for you doggies while parents are away. We have paddling pools and sprinklers and lots of space and shade for summer days relaxing by the pool and ball play. All kinds of balls footballs tennis balls rubber balls bouncy balls. Toys to chew and cuddle. Walks in the snow or patterning in the puddles. Our home from home consists of two toy poodle girlies my son and I have lots of space and love to spend time with animals we are very welcoming and trustworthy. Knowing that I could only trust my girls to be happy in a home board not a kennels I provide the Perfect Place for your dog to feel loved and safe until your return. I will be able to offer boarding for small to medium dogs females and males. I look forward to meeting your pet and spending some wonderful time with them. Thanks for your interest. I am retired and I'm home most of the day. I have 2 Toy poodles and a 10 yr old son who loves animals and is always supervised with them. Our girls are our world and the day is filled with fun balls cuddles treats training and the odd bath much to their dismay. Our home is safe and secure I have cameras up and webcam log in is available to check on your pet while you aren't with them. The garden is 10000ft sq and fully enclosed.

About: **I have hands-on experience with dogs, cats and other small pets through dog grooming, pet retail, animal welfare support, and personal pet ownership. I currently share my home with two friendly dogs and two cats, and I regularly care for friends' pets. I'm confident handling pets with a wide range of personalities and needs and I take a calm, patient approach to help them feel safe, comfortable, and secure.** **My experience includes helping to rehome animals, supporting local welfare initiatives, and working alongside a veterinary practice on animal welfare and community education projects. I'm DBS checked, trained in pet first aid through professional grooming courses, and committed to providing the same level of care and attention I'd want for my own pets.** **As a qualified dog groomer, I can also offer puppy introduction sessions, bath-and-tidy appointments, and full grooms during your dog's stay. Grooming sessions are tailored to each dog and carried out at a relaxed pace, with plenty of breaks and positive reinforcement to keep the experience as enjoyable and stress-free as possible.** **To provide the best experience for every guest, I only accept small dogs who are friendly with cats and comfortable in a home environment. My goal is to create a true home-from-home where dogs can relax, play, enjoy companionship, and feel part of the family while you're away. Whether your dog loves adventures, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or simply a quiet place to unwind, they'll receive plenty of individual attention, affection, and care.** **I want every dog who stays with me to be excited to come back—a place where they can have fun, feel safe, and enjoy their own little holiday while you enjoy yours. We are lucky to have great walks on our doorstep and are frequent visitors of secure doggy parks nearby so no dogs will be bored here!** I work from home, so I'm here throughout the day. Pets staying with us become part of our daily life, rather than being left alone for long periods. Walks, playtime, cuddles, rest breaks, and any grooming appointments can be tailored around each dog’s individual needs and routine. I live with two small, friendly dogs and two cats in a home with secure, fenced front and back gardens, with a gate between them for flexibility. The house is at the end of a private driveway, with no streets directly outside, and fields nearby with plenty of wildlife to observe. I only accept small dogs who are comfortable around cats and enjoy a home environment. I want dogs staying with me to feel as though they’re on holiday rather than in kennels. I can quickly separate dogs if needed, keep pets separate for meals or rest time, and follow any routines or instructions owners provide. Having worked with many different animals, including nervous and rescue pets, I’m happy to go at their pace and help them settle in comfortably.

“Holly was fantastic!! She helped us with a last minute request and was amazing at keeping us updated throughout the day, thank you Holly ☺️”

“Our rescue staffie Daisy had a great second visit to Sam's house for doggy day care, we received lots of lovely updates and Sam is so friendly. We have now booked Daisy in for a weekend stay as we know she'll be so well cared for!”

Morgan H.

“Paula and John looked after my little dog Panzer at short notice. I felt very at ease as he was well welcomed into their home with cuddles and treats! They took excellent care of him and he came back happy and tired after a lovely long walk. I would happily recommend and wouldn't hesitate to bring him back for another visit!”

Ruby L.

“Sinead was amazing to look after moose. As it was last minute booking no meet or greet was completed but Sinead kept me up to date with what was going on. Moose did decide to eat something he shouldn't have during zoomies but she notified me straight away and came to a resolution together. ❤️❤️ Thank you Sinead!”

Emily C.

“Took care of my boy for a day, provided pictures and communicated well with pictures provided during the stay. Cara did an amazing job of settling Ein in and he was so sad to leave. Highly recommend.”

“Teddy had the best time with Bex! As soon as we arrived to drop Teddy off for the day, we instantly felt comfortable and confident with leaving Teddy knowing he was going to be in good hands. The updates from Bex throughout the day were great and we could see how happy Teddy was. We’re already planning to use Bex again - would highly recommend!”

About: Hey there, I’m Millie! I’m 24 years old and I’ve been mad about animals ever since I was little. To me, pets are like family and there are no two ways about it. I have my own cat, and I’ve looked after and walked dogs of all ages/sizes, so I have plenty of experience in caring for pets. I’m a full time midwife, part time pet sitter. I’m a trustworthy, patient, compassionate and understanding individual who just loves to spend time with all kinds of furbabies. I’m flexible and able to travel. I enjoy dog walks as much as I enjoy a dog’s company. I can guarantee that your pet will be loved and well cared for. I am currently free most days and for the majority of those days, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I generally spend a lot of my time bonding with pets and earning their trust. I like to encourage tricks and play, as well as a good walk (or two). I prompt toilet breaks often throughout the day to ensure that any accidents can be avoided. As much as I love to go outside and endorse exercise/play, I also love just spending time petting and relaxing with pets I look after.

“Cris was very friendly and responsive. She kept me updated with photos and videos of Lola during her stay, took Lola to the park for a walk as well, it was all good :)”

Marcia G.

“Many thanks to Charlotte for looking after Archie and Ralph so well yesterday. They came back very chilled out and clearly well looked after during the day. We will have no hesitation in asking Charlotte to look after them again.”

About: I care for every dog as if it were my own. I live and breathe dogs - they are my life and I love nothing more than doggy company and seeing them run around with each other chasing a ball and having lots of fun! I am pet First Aid trained and DBS checked. I also hold a 5 star Dog Boarding licence. I work from home so someone is always around meaning your dog will get plenty of fuss and attention whilst you’re away. Snuggles on the sofa in the evening are a must! I am available all days of the week. I have a large secure garden and two friendly dogs to keep your dog company and enjoy lots of play time and fun! We also have cameras at the front and back or our property as well as a lockable gate to the garden.

“Thanks again to Niamh and Reggie for taking excellent care of Perdy as always. Totally recommended!”
