Doggy Day Care Thurlby

“Millie S looked after our Basset FDB for the day. The whole experience was extremely friendly and helpful with great communication throughout. There were walks for as simulation and tailored care given that our dog was still recovering from an operation earlier the same week. We will definitely be booking with Mille S again.”

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs, cats and horses, I understand that they’re more than just pets; they’re cherished members of the family and bring so much joy and happiness. I understand the importance of quality care, compassion and providing a home-from-home experience for your dog. From Dalmatians to dachshunds, every dog is treated with love, kindness and care. I currently have a gorgeous red fox Labrador X vizsla called ‘Hera’, she’s incredibly friendly and loves nothing more than having a playmate for all of our adventures! I’m active and love nothing more than being outside exploring, and I’m fortunate enough to work from home, with a very flexible schedule (allowing for lots of walks and ‘garden zoomies!’ Your dogs comfort, routine and happiness is my top priority and I’m dedicated to accommodating their every requirement. I can’t wait to meet your lovely dogs x I’m fortunate enough to work remotely, from home and with a very flexible schedule, allowing for lots of adventures and garden zoomies! My dog, Hera, typically has 3 walks per day come rain or shine! I have a large, secure garden and live in a rural setting, with immediate access to countryside walks. If I’m walking a dog from your home, I’ll always research the local area to find the best walks and love nothing more than discovering new paths with a four-legged fur baby for company!

“Evie was a huge help in providing fairly last minute daycare for our puppy and were really understanding when we ran late for pick ups. I always worry about leaving our puppy with anyone as they can be hard work to look after, but Evie and her partner were great with him and we received regular updates on how he was getting on. He was happy every time he came home and we would not hesitate to contact Evie again whenever we are in need of puppy care!”

“Christina and her family are incredible! We were on a trip to the north when we stopped in town to see a show with our daughter! We needed someone to look after our pups last minute and I couldn’t be more thankful that we stumbled upon Christina’s profile! Christina came and met us at the theatre as we were running late and collected the dogs, was very understanding and helpful, kept us updated on how the dogs were with pictures and texts and even had the kids playing with our pups! If I’m completely honest, I think the dogs were sad to be leaving as they’d had so much fun! If we are ever in the area again, I will definitely use Christina again!!”

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including working in a home boarding environment. I now offer drop-in visits and dog walking, providing reliable, calm and attentive care for pets in their own home or on their regular walks. I have experience with rescue dogs, young puppies, and more nervous or reactive animals, and I always adapt my approach to suit each pet’s needs. I’m trusted by friends, family, and clients to feed, walk, check in, and spend quality time with their pets, making sure they feel safe, settled, and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important consistency is for both cats and dogs, so I aim to keep timings regular to help them feel settled and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I take a calm, respectful, and reliable approach to make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding, walking, medication if needed, and maintaining routines. I have experience with both confident and more nervous or reactive animals, and I always adapt my approach to suit each pet. I ensure your home is left secure after every visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Exceptional. Samba is a rescue and has a few little quirks. Charlotte was very understanding and happily went at Samba’s pace. Spent their time together cuddling which is Samba’s favourite thing to do. I would happily use Charlotte again and recommend her care. Thank you again.”

About: If friends and family need someone to take care of their beloved pets while they’re away, I’m the go to person! I am an animal lover and what better way to spend my free time than with new furry friends. I am a reliable, approachable and trustworthy person who gets lots of happiness from spending time with animals. I am currently working fully remote so I have a lot of free time to play with! I am very flexible and also available most days. I am very flexible in terms of looking after your pets to the way you prefer. This is something that will be communicated before I look after your pet so I know exactly how you wish for me to take care of them which suits you/them.

About: I have always had a strong love for animals, especially dogs, as I grew up surrounded by lots of different pets. Being around animals from a young age has helped me develop a natural understanding of how to care for them, be patient with them, and make sure they feel safe, happy and comfortable. My experience as a dog sitter is something I really enjoy because I love spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities and needs. I understand the importance of giving them plenty of attention, exercise, fresh air and companionship while their owners are away. One of my favourite parts of dog sitting is taking dogs out for walks. I enjoy giving them the opportunity to explore, exercise and have fun, while also benefiting from being outdoors myself. Going for regular walks with a dog helps me stay active and supports my own health and wellbeing, making it something that I find both enjoyable and rewarding. Overall, looking after dogs is something I am passionate about. Growing up with pets, combined with my experience caring for animals, has taught me to be responsible, caring and attentive. I would always treat someone else's dog with the same care and respect that I would give to my own pets. Working from home allows me to provide dogs with the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to take regular breaks to feed them, let them outside, give them attention and take them out for walks. Being at home also means dogs are not left alone for long periods of time, which can help them feel more comfortable and settled. I can easily fit walks and playtime around my working schedule while still making sure my work commitments are met. I really enjoy being around dogs while I work, and I believe my home-based routine is ideal for dog sitting. It allows me to give each dog plenty of care and attention while providing a safe, calm and loving environment for them. Although my garden is on the smaller side, it is fully fenced and provides a safe and secure space for dogs to have regular toilet breaks and get some fresh air throughout the day. I understand that the garden is not intended to replace proper walks and exercise, but it is a convenient and secure space for quick toilet breaks whenever needed. I also live next to a beautiful bank and walking area, which is perfect for giving dogs plenty of exercise and outdoor stimulation. I regularly take my family’s dog there for walks and really enjoy spending time outdoors with him. The area provides a lovely environment for dogs to explore, get some exercise and enjoy their surroundings. Having both a secure garden and such a beautiful walking area nearby means I can provide dogs with regular toilet breaks, exercise and plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

About: I’ve struggled myself to find the right home to look after my precious boys. I offer a home from home setting where your dog(s) will receive lots of cuddles and lots of playtime. We have two male cockapoos, one of which is of senior age. We have previously had Great Danes (gorgeous breed) and have grown up round a variety of breeds. We have two children age 10 and 13 who have grown up around animals and absolutely love dogs and if your dog wants to run around with smaller humans they’re all for it. I work from home part time so I’m available for cuddles on the sofa and they can play freely with open access to the enclosed garden. We will accommodate so that everything is familiar to what they are used to for example sleeping in the kitchen, sleeping in a bedroom, being on furniture and so forth. We have a Vets locally who our dogs are registered with and plenty of green areas for dogs to have good walks. Any questions please feel free to ask. I know they are your babies and we will take great care of them. I work from home part time and I’m kept company by my two cockerpoos; one who is old and quite happily chills and the other who is seven and can always be encouraged to play. We have a secure enclosed garden where they will have access to play freely. We have lots of walks and greenery close by so they don’t have to do the same route all the time and can adapt the walks we take to your dogs needs.

“Eszter has been amazing since (with very short notice) we started working with her in 2023. Totally reliable and flexible and everything we could ask for when it comes to both day care and dog boarding in a super friendly and homely environment.”

“I am really happy with how Scoot looked after my Athena, he sent me constant updates on how she progressed throughout the day which is super reassuring. Thank you so much again.”

“I needed my dog looking after last minute after traveling to Peterborough for a meeting Hi. I’ve messaged you. Lynn and her husband were amazing ? I can’t thank them enough. Oscar was made to feel at home from the word go. I can highly recommend Lynn 100%”

Tracey C.

“Thank you Brett! Brett has looked after Jasper on a regular daycare basis and had him overnight and Jasper clearly loves spending time with him and the family. Brett plays with him regularly, taking him on long walks and sharing updates with us throughout the day (which we love to receive!). He's very conscientious, asking lots about Jasper during our first meeting. We feel really comfortable leaving Jasper in Brett's care, and know that he'll be having a great day when he's there. Couldn't recommend Brett more!”

“Many thanks Tom and your lovely family, for taking good care of Daisy yesterday. Our labradoodle is 11 now and it’s the 1st occasion we have left her with Tom. He sent through some lovely photos of Daisy with the children, which was very reassuring and gave us the confidence to know that she had settled in and will be fine when we leave her again. Hopefully next time the weather will be less soggy for your walks !”

“Rushie really enjoyed the day and slept all evening”

About: I am happiest when with dogs, they really are man’s best friend. I am always pottering in the garden when it’s nice, or reading by the fire when it’s not! We also have lovely woods to walk in nearby. I have had dogs for as long as I can remember, but no longer have my own. I am retired and love spending time with dogs. We live in the beautiful Burghley estate so are truly spoilt for walking spots. I am up early to feed the chickens and more often than not, tending to my garden. Would be happy to have some canine company. I have a fully dog proofed garden with large lawn and plenty of space to explore. We have a long driveway, and gate, not that many cars come this way! We walk a minute to beautiful wooded areas
