Doggy Day Care in Middlesbrough

About: I have been around dogs ever since I was a baby and I grew up with Rottweilers and mixed breeds. I also have an 11 year old miniature poodle back home in Portugal (living with my mom), and a friendly 6 month-old cockapoo living with me and my partner. I’m comfortable with different breeds and routines, as long as you provide me with this information beforehand so I can provide a warm, relaxed home where your pets will be treated like family. I work from home full-time, so pets are part of my daily routine with regular walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I live right next to a green area for quick and frequent outings, and on weekends I enjoy longer walks to parks or the beach for extra exercise and enrichment. I am available for weekday meet-and-greets and onboarding either before 8am or after 5pm. Pets staying in my home will be cared for in a calm, safe, and relaxed environment. I have a secure fenced garden for supervised outdoor time and toilet breaks. My friendly 6-month-old cockapoo puppy is also at home and can provide company and gentle social interaction, helping visiting dogs feel comfortable and settled. If required, I can also keep pets in separate rooms to ensure everyone has their own space to relax and feel at ease. I always aim to follow each pet's routine and individual needs as closely as possible.

“Ellie has been amazing with Enzo and me. She always offers to come collect him at drop off time and drop him back down for pick up. She gave me updates and photos daily too. Enzo loved going to her on a morning and I would 100% use her again.”

About: I have had a lifelong passion for animals, particularly dogs, which has shaped my extensive experience in pet care. Growing up with dogs, I have developed a deep understanding of their behavior, needs, and training requirements. This hands-on experience has equipped me with the skills to provide effective care and companionship for a variety of dog breeds and temperaments. In addition to my personal experience, I have engaged in dog sitting for friends and family, allowing me to broaden my expertise in managing different dogs in various environments. This includes feeding routines, exercise regimens, and ensuring the overall well-being of the pets in my care. My commitment to creating a positive and safe environment for dogs is evident in my attentive approach, ensuring that each pet feels loved and secure. Through my lifelong experience and dog sitting activities, I have developed strong communication skills with both pets and their owners. ✨ A quick note on my setup: I live in a flat, which is a wonderful, cosy space for pets! To keep my home private and secure, I don't offer home tours or allow owners inside. We will always meet at a local park for a chat first to make sure everything is a perfect fit. 🐾 Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily routine as I am available all day, every day. This allows me to prioritize the needs of the dogs in my care, providing them with attention, exercise, and companionship whenever they need it. My schedule is flexible, enabling me to accommodate various feeding times, walks, and play sessions, ensuring each dog receives personalized care. I enjoy spending quality time with pets, whether it's taking them for long walks, engaging in play, or simply being there for cuddles. This commitment to pet care enriches my day while ensuring that the dogs feel loved and well cared for at all times. When caring for pets in my home I prioritise a safe and nurturing environment. I have a fenced-off garden that provides a secure space for dogs to play and explore, ensuring they can enjoy fresh air while staying safe. My own dog, who is an older, loving, and friendly companion, helps create a calm atmosphere, making it easier for new pets to feel comfortable and relaxed. I also utilize a crate for any pets that may need a safe, quiet space to retreat to when they feel overwhelmed or need some downtime. This helps to establish a routine and provides pets with their own cozy spot. I ensure that all pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and social interaction, whether through walks, playtime in the garden, or relaxing indoors. My goal is to create a welcoming, loving environment where every pet feels at home.

“Jasper loved staying with Sian for day care and was so excited on the second day as soon as we got to the house. He made himself right at home from the minute he walked in and I was kept up to date during the day which was really appreciated. Will definitely be booking again.”

About: Hi I’m India! I’ve owned dogs my whole life from chihuahuas to alsatians and everything in between. At my family home we have an assortment of pets from horses to cats and dogs. Over the summer months I will be back home with lots of free time so I’d love to play care and love your pets when you’re at work or going away. We have lots of space including, enclosed fields, fenced gardens and dog runs as well as rooms inside to keep your pet separate from other dogs if that’s what you would prefer! Im a kind, patient person and I’m capable of handling dogs that may need a slightly stricter approach, my husky for example pulls on her lead very badly (I’m trying to train her out of this though!) Thank you for reading and please keep me in mind :) Your pets needs would dictate my routine. I’m happy to accommodate older pets who may not need lots of exercise or the opposite and take your pet out to play and walk all day. We have lots of space including, enclosed fields, fenced gardens and dog runs as well as rooms inside to keep your pet separate from other dogs if that’s what you would prefer!

“So glad I found Andrew. Was the first time using Rover and first time leaving Jasper with anyone other than family so I was more than a little nervous. Andrew sent me updates and photos to put my mind at rest. Jasper settled in straight away and will definitely be booking again.”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life and have grown up in a dog loving home. My family has a French Bulldog who is now 12 years old, and I have been closely involved in his care throughout his life from a little pup all the way to a senior dog. I regularly look after him when my family are away, ensuring his daily routines are maintained and that he feels comfortable and well cared for. In addition to this, I frequently care for other family pets while they are on holiday, providing walking, feeding, and general day to day care. I am attentive, patient, and reliable, and I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and cared for as they would be at home. I am available for dog boarding, doggy daycare, dog walking, and drop in visits from Fridays through to Mondays. I can organise longer stays/visits upon request. For those that choose dog boarding/dog sitting, I live with my partner who will also be in the house as he works at home full time. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment both in my home and in a pet owner’s home. My home is spacious and comfortable, allowing dogs plenty of room to relax, and I also have a large, fully fenced garden where they can safely play and get fresh air. Outside of my home, I have access to lots of green spaces, which allows me to take dogs on regular walks in quiet, natural surroundings. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain their normal routines, including feeding, walking, and any specific care needs.

About: I have taken care of pets for the majority of my life. I couldn't imagine my home without them. I have had dogs for almost 10 years and they mean the absolute world to me. I am a very overprotective dog parent!! So you can be assured your dog(s) will be in safe hands and I will take care of them as if they are one of my own. I have a dog of my own called Willow. She is a Cockapoo and is the friendliest, most loving dog you will ever meet! She absolutely adores being around other dogs and will definitely enjoy a playmate. Currently I work from home the majority of the time so looking after your dog will fit perfectly in to my daily schedule. I am self employed also, so walks, playtime and feeding will work around what suits your dog best and will take priority when they are in my care. I have a secured and large back garden with lots of grass. There is no plants/shrubs/flowers which are unsafe for dogs. I also live over the road from two large fields and I am more than happy to take your dog on a walk around the park. I have a good sized car with a dog gate which is suitable for your pup to travel in. Your dog will recieve my full attention and lots of love and fusses!

“Amy was absolutely amazing with our 8-month-old Golden Retriever, Albert! I reached out only a few days before we needed daycare, and Amy replied immediately and was happy to help. Since I wasn’t sure how Albert would react to new people and other dogs, we even arranged a quick meet-and-greet beforehand, which made me feel really comfortable and reassured. Amy was reliable, flexible, and incredibly easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. She kept me updated during the day with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. Even though Albert is still a puppy and not fully trained yet, she was very patient and welcoming. Her dog Jasper is lovely as well, and the two dogs got along perfectly. It was also really nice to see how much care and attention Albert received during his stay — Amy even took him on a long walk, which he clearly enjoyed a lot. Amy is super friendly, open, and genuinely caring. I would trust her with Albert again anytime and will definitely book with her again.”

“Amazing, I couldn’t recommend Charlotte enough, thank you so much, Bella loved her stay, I will 100% come to you for future visits without any worry”

“Joanne looked after my Jack Russell Terrier for the day and I could not have been happier with the care she gave her. She was treated like one of the family and Joanne is a real natural with dogs and I could tell that she would be kind and attentive to my dog during her stay. A real home from home experience and my little dog came home so very happy and exhausted after her fun day at Joanne’s. 100% recommended if you want your dog to go somewhere safe, fun and given love.”

“My dog is very anxious and nervous so obviously was a bit worried about his first stay with Kay, soon as I met Kay and her husband I knew he would be fine, they made him feel at home and could tell they just wanted my dog to be happy & safe, he came home worn out as had plenty of walks & play time, would definitely recommend and will be using them again”

“Scooby, my six month old Cavachon went to Eve’s for doggy day care on the 3rd May, 2023, for the first time. Booking through Rover is a breeze but Eve goes the extra mile adding a personal touch. Communication & promptness to reply, asking questions about Scooby’s likes & dislikes, walks/if he was aloud off the lead, everything & more was covered & catered for. I cannot fault or rate Eve highly enough, pure perfection, I have rebooked a further five days, this time with boarding. Please anyone considering booking with Eve, don’t hesitate , you will not be disappointed.”
