Doggy Day Care West Mersea

About: I have had dogs for the last 10 years. I have a very close bond with them and love spending my time with them. I also walk, feed and bathe them. I have taken care of friends dogs from time to time as well as both cats and dogs through Rover! I currently work remotely meaning I am able to spend lots of quality time with your pets at the same time as working! I often go for a walk with my own dogs around lunchtime. I have a large fenced garden next to a beach and two friendly dogs of my own! They love new company and having adventures together.

“First doggie daycare for Dickie with Annabel and we couldn’t be happier. Looking forward to making many more bookings. Thanks for a great experience, Annabel 😊”

“Dylan had a fantastic day with Michael! He was so well looked after, with lots of playtime. The location is perfect, with a large and secure garden, plenty of space inside and a fun walk nearby, away from roads. Highly recommended!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. I grew up with many cats, and since I was little I’ve helped look after them, including taking in stray cats during my childhood. We also always had family dogs, and I loved spending time with them, playing, and taking them out for walks. In total, my whole family 5 dogs overall, so I’m very comfortable being around different breeds and personalities. I also have personal experience caring for a small tortoise named Frankie, so I’m used to looking after pets with different needs and routines. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy giving them attention, care, and companionship. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to give pets the attention they need. I’m available for dog walks, home visits, boarding, and overnight stays, and I can be flexible to suit your pet’s routine. I’m happy to help with whatever is needed to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I live in a small two-bedroom house, and although I don’t have a garden, there is a small nature reserve area just behind my home that’s perfect for dog walks. There’s also a bigger park about a 5 to 10 minute walk away, so there’s plenty of outdoor space and nature nearby for exercise and fresh air. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and cared for in a calm, safe environment.

About: My aim is to make sure your dog is happy, loved, entertained, walked and fed in the same way as if they were at home. I work from home so am here all day to look after your dog as I do my own gorgeous golden retriever, Stan. I wake up early (06:30) to say hi, provide breakfast, and let Stan and your lovely dog out in our safe garden followed by a cuddle. Then we’re out for a walk in the lovely open spaces on our doorstep. If it’s the weekend - and your dog is keen - we’ll go to the beach for a swim or paddle! Otherwise happy to stick to our lovely countryside walks :) Chill time then playtime in the garden followed by another walk later. Then dinner and an evening play and chill whilst we cook dinner and relax at home with Stan and his pal :) I have my own 7 year old golden retriever, Stan who is very chilled and gets on with all dogs and humans! We have a spacious home with a fenced garden. There are lots of lovely walks on our doorstep and we like to go to the beach for a swim or paddle too! Stan is my third child! I have two grown up kids at uni. Freddie, 22 and Poppy 20. I will look after your dog as if he were part of our family.

“Briony was amazing with Gigi - knew exactly what to do to settle her - really grateful for the suggestions and flexibility. Gave a super quick response and kept us updated throughout - would highly recommend/use again!”

About: I had two dogs for 16 years who were so loved and cared for. Unfortunately they have both passed away now so I have a dog shaped hole in my heart. I am one of those people who sees a dog and just smiles. If I look after your doggy I can promise you I will care for them as if they were my own. They will be very welcome to share the sofa and there will be lots of tickling of the tummy! I love going out for walks with dogs and just really treating them like part of the family I have just retired from work so I have plenty of time. I do go out and about though so won’t necessarily be at home for the entire day. I have a fenced garden with grass. I live next to a large field where many people walk their dogs. My house does not have a road outside so it is very secure.

“I left my anxious senior chihuahua with Amadeusz yesterday as a practice run for a longer stay - he was very understanding of her stress and was able to make friends with her and get her to settle in. He checked in throughout the day to let me know how she was doing & even sent a few pictures. I will book with him again!”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and enthusiastic animal lover with a genuine passion for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand that pets are family members, and I treat every dog in my care with the same attention, patience, and affection I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, companionship while you’re away, feeding, playtime, or overnight care, I provide a safe and loving environment tailored to their individual needs. I am attentive to routines, exercise requirements, and any special instructions to ensure your pet feels comfortable and happy. What I Offer Dog walking Pet sitting at your home Feeding and fresh water Playtime and exercise Medication administration (if required) Regular updates, photos, and messages Basic grooming (brushing, wiping paws) Why Choose Me? Dependable and punctual Calm and patient with nervous or energetic dogs Comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and ages Strong focus on safety and wellbeing Excellent communication with pet owners I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend and providing the care, attention, and exercise they deserve! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m self-employed and currently only working one full day a week with a few shorter commitments on other days, so I already have plenty of time and flexibility built into my week for walks, exercise, and general care. On a day-to-day basis, I’m already used to structuring my time around being active and outdoors, so fitting in regular walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day works easily alongside my routine. I’m consistent with early mornings, daytime availability, and being around in the week, which makes it easy to stay reliable with care. Weekly, my schedule is already quite open and flexible, so I can comfortably adapt to different dogs’ needs and routines and make sure they’re getting steady, dependable care. In a pet owner’s home, I follow the dog’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and settled in their own environment. I stick closely to their feeding, walking, and care instructions, making sure everything stays consistent, calm, and familiar for them. I also pay close attention to their behaviour and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owner is away. If I’m caring for a pet in my own home, I have plenty of space for them to feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure they have a safe, clean, and calm environment, and I keep their routine as close to normal as possible, including feeding, exercise, and rest. They’re supervised and given plenty of attention throughout the day, with regular walks and playtime built in. For dog walking, I focus on safe, enjoyable walks that suit each dog’s energy and personality, always making sure they’re secure and well looked after from start to finish. Overall, I prioritise keeping pets happy, comfortable, and cared for, whether I’m in their home or they’re staying with me. I also have a cavapoo your dog can socialise with. If you are not keen on this my dog Is able to stay in a separate section of the house with my parents! :)

“Thomas was great with our puppy Peggy. Arranged a meet and greet in advance and was very reassuring as this was to be Peggy's first ever doggy daycare. We got messages and pictures at various points during her stay and she obviously made herself quite at home. Would happily rebook.”

“Kulfi adores Andrea! As soon as we are nearby she’s so excited and can’t wait to get out the car. Andrea keeps us updated throughout the day and makes sure Kulfi gets plenty of exercise and play balanced with rest. Can’t recommend her enough x”
