Loving care when you're not there!
Think of it like a children’s nursery with no age restriction, especially designed for your dog, providing safe and supervised play. It is a great way for your pet to get some exercise and meet new friends.
We are a dog daycare with indoor and outdoor facilities, our focus is more on mental stimulation rather than physical, it makes a nice change for them. We play enrichment games, puzzle games and brain training and when they come home they are tired out so no need to walk them!
But what makes us different is, our daycare caters specifically for smaller breeds. We have less than 16 dogs in our compact and friendly group, so is ideal for smaller or less confident dogs.
We have been awarded a five star license by South Ribble Council (AB47 Hannah Parker) and are insured with Protectivity Animal Insurance specialists. The daycare is staffed by qualified pet care specialists, trained in Animal Behaviour, First Aid and Health & Wellbeing.
Doggie Birthday Parties may sound a bit silly, but they play an important role in teaching dogs to be patient and have doggie manners around food.
A party with their best buddies, sharing cake with party music and party games is a great way for your dog to celebrate their Birthday. They can even wear a party hat, but only if they want to!
A designated party photographer will capture all the fun of the big day!
We also celebrate at Easter, Halloween and Christmas.
Q. If there are big dogs in daycare will my little dog be safe?

Q. How are dogs controlled and disciplined whilst in daycare?
A. All our Daycare staff are trained in Dog Behaviour and Management and they will be under constant supervision. We only ever use positive reinforcement.
Q. If my dog is nervous, how are they integrated into the pack?
A. We insist on a taster day for your dog to see if daycare is right for them. We gradually introduce your dog to our other dogs. This enables us to ensure your dog is kept as calm and happy as possible.
Q. How is my dog toileted whilst at daycare?
A. We have a secure outside area for toileting, so you can rest assured your dog will not pick up any unwanted habits!

A. No, we are a centre that focuses on brain training and mental stimulation in a controlled environment.
Q. Is it safe for dogs to be playing on equipment?
A. All our play equipment is safe for dogs and no equipment is higher than 3ft. It is great fun for the dogs to climb and run through, we also provide safe, calm areas to retreat between bouts of play and games.
Q. Whilst my dog is on your premises how can I be assured of its security?
A. We take the security of the dogs in our care very seriously. Only fully trained team members are allowed in the daycare area. We have two airlock systems to ensure no dog can escape. Dogs can only be collected by authorised persons. No unauthorised personnel are allowed to wander around the building.
Q. I have a puppy, can it come to daycare?
A. Yes! Daycare is the perfect environment for your puppy to develop social skills while supervised by fully trained staff. We accept puppies from as young as 12 weeks, or once they are out of their vaccination period.
Q. Do dogs have to be neutered to come to daycare?
A. Females do not have to be neutered, however they cannot come to daycare while they are in season. Males can come as puppies until the age of 6 months, after that they must be neutured.
Q. What areas do you cover?
A. In addition to local customers, we have doggos from all over Preston and Leyland and even parts of Merseyside. Its is more a question of whether it is convenient for you and your furbaby rather than an area that we cover.
