Doggy Day Care in Swale

“George gets excited getting out the car when he sees he is going to see Darren and meet new friends. He always comes homes happy and tired. Darren takes good care of the dogs in his care.”

About: We have always loved looking after pets of all different ages. We have looked after multiple dogs at a time of all shapes and sizes. Aron works full time from home. We are mostly in at weekends but love an excuse like a dog to get us out for walks. We have a fenced off long garden. Your fur baby will have free reign of the house and furniture so they can find a comfortable spot to relax

About: I am a genuine dog lover and a pet parent myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone reliable, kind and patient to look after your pets. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs day to day, including feeding routines, walks, toilet breaks, playtime, cuddles, basic grooming care and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I currently care for my own dogs, including a larger energetic dog and a smaller companion dog, so I am comfortable with different sizes, temperaments and routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, likes, dislikes and boundaries, and I always try to follow the owner’s instructions closely. What sets me apart is that I treat pets like family. I am patient, gentle and attentive, and I will make sure your dog receives plenty of care, affection and reassurance while you are away. I can help with regular walks, feeding, playtime, companionship and keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I am also happy to provide updates, photos and messages so you feel reassured while your pet is with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as I already care for my own dogs every day. I am used to regular feeding times, morning and evening walks, toilet breaks, playtime and keeping dogs settled throughout the day. I have a flexible routine, so I can plan walks, visits or care around each pet’s normal schedule. I understand that consistency is important for pets, so I always try to follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep their routine as familiar as possible. I care for pets with patience, attention and respect for their individual needs. Whether I am looking after a pet in my home or in the owner’s home, I make sure they feel safe, calm and comfortable. I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medication if required, toilet routines, sleeping arrangements and any house rules. I keep pets supervised, avoid unsafe situations, and take care when opening doors, walking near roads or introducing them to unfamiliar places. In my home, pets will be treated like family in a clean, caring and comfortable environment. I also understand that some pets may feel nervous when away from their owners, so I give them time, reassurance and gentle attention. I am happy to send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident that their pet is safe and well cared for.

“Romina lives very close to me so that is a huge bonus. We had an initial meet up mostly to see if our dogs would get on. Sparky(mine) & Buddy (hers) were shall I say a work in progress!! Today I left Sparky at Romina’s home for 3 hours and I am delighted to say all went well. Romina is patient and kind and has a good empathy with dogs she sent me photos which were reassuring as Sparky can be a tad anxious. I’m really happy and have now booked a further 5 sittings. The booking system is a little bit difficult to navigate especially if you are making multiple bookings but hopefully it’s going to work out For us☺️🐾”

“Milo had a great day with Aiva and family, and is looking forward to going back. Aiva sent me lots of pictures and videos, and communicated throughout the day as she knew I was a bit anxious about leaving him.”

About: From a very young age me and my family have owned and have been around dogs. I have been a sitter on rover since christmas and have really enjoyed being a boarder. And as you can see so do the dogs. Im a caring single man and mad about dogs. Love going for country walks, or curled up on the sofa with a good film or program. I dont work so I can give my full attention and care to your dog. I also like going fishing to the local lake so that could be fun for the dog. I take into consideration a dogs emotions, needs and what kind of care the animal would need by conversing with the customer. Obviously each pet is different. Im very versatile and will go above and beyond to make sure there stay is really good fun.

About: I am from the north east of England where I live in a small town surrounded by countryside (before spending 16 years in London and moving to Kent in 2020). I love animals, in particular dogs. From when I was born I grew up around cats and dogs we had in the family, rabbits too and other animals on my aunties farm horses, cows, sheep and chickens. My auntie was also a dog trainer and attended crufts. I work in Mental Health and animals are a huge part of the family. They also help to reduce any stress, live in the moment and make us smile. I also have a pet first aid qualification. I am mainly available Friday (8am) to Sunday (10pm) for day care and/or over night. Depending on the time of the year and my work I may be available for other days/longer stays. My home is firstly my dogs home. He is allowed on the sofa and has access to a secure garden. There are no dangerous wires or objects which could cause injury.

“Very pleased that Daynah could help out. She had another dog there at the time, which for me is a positive. Good communication, I shall call on Daynah again.”

About: Hi, I’m Chelsie! I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a baby, and caring for them has always been a huge part of my life. Over the years I’ve had all kinds of pets — from energetic boxers and graceful whippets to my two lovely cockapoos who keep me smiling every day. I’ve also cared for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. I work from home, which means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, love, and attention throughout the day. Whether they enjoy cuddles, playtime, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I truly adore animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’d love the chance to look after your fur babies! 🐾 I work from home, which means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, love, and attention throughout the day. Whether they enjoy cuddles, playtime, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. In My Home: When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I work from home, so they’re never short of company or attention. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walks, naps, and playtime. Pets are free to relax on the sofa, explore safely, or enjoy the garden (if you have one). I provide plenty of enrichment, cuddles, and supervision throughout the day to make sure they feel comfortable and secure.

About: I have always been around dogs from a very young age so I have grown attached to say they are my favourite animal. My children have also been around them over the last few years though family and friends having dogs which has got them to love and care for them as much as me. I know how to walk, feed and generally look after a dog and take care of their daily needs. I am a full time mother of 2. My daughter is 11 and my son is 5 We are a very dog friendly house, and can't wait to be able to share our home with any doggy that needs one! I am a full time mother of 2 children aged 11 and 5. I am home most of the time apart from the school runs so I'm always about so your dog won't be left alone for long. I have a house with a fenced garden which has a small fake grass area as well as a concrete area, to which they can be let out in if need to be let out. I also don't mind dogs being on my furniture around the home. I want them to feel as welcome as they possibly can while staying with us. They are welcome all around the house including upstairs. I have a rather large kitchen too which would be perfect if your doggy sleeps in a crate. At the back of our house we have a massive football field area and we are only 5 mins walk to the local park/rec.

“Tom was great with Lenny. Very accommodating especially as we booked last minute. Tom asked questions beforehand to make sure that he was prepared to care for Lenny. Tom sent us pictures and a video of how Lenny’s day was which offered reassurance that Lenny was in good hands. We will definitely use Tom again :)”
