FAQs: Wagtails Doggy Day Care

Q: What is doggy day care?

Doggy daycare is a supervised environment where dogs can socialise, play, learn and exercise during the day.

Q: Do you charge a joining fee?

No, absolutely not! Please see detailed pricing information above.

Q: What are your dog day care opening hours?

We are open Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm. We are closed on weekends and public holidays.

Q: Are you licensed and insured for doggy daycare?

Yes, we have a 5 star (higher standards) licence awarded by the Council and we are fully insured.

Q: Do you take ad hoc bookings?

For the sake of consistency, we ask that dogs come to us on a regular basis (at least once a week). That way the dogs can all get to know each other and we can ensure we’re adequately staffed. Dogs love routine and we try to keep their schedules as regular as possible to avoid stress. If you need extra days, feel free to give our team a ring, we will try our best to accommodate you.

Q: How does the Doggy Shuttle work?

If you choose to use our doggy shuttle service, then we can pick up the dogs from your home and drop them back again later in the day.

For ultimate convenience, you can provide a spare key to your home which is kept securely in line with our key holding policy. This is a comprehensively insured service.

Collection of the dogs will be any time from 8.00am to 10.00am and drop off in the afternoon will be any time from 4:00pm to 6.00pm.
‍
The van is fully equipped with safe crates, comfortable beds and an air ventilation system. All our drivers are DBS checked and have experience in safe animal transportation and handling.

Q: How do I enrol my dog?

You can start the enrolment process by contacting us to arrange a "meet and greet," where your dog will get to explore the day care and you can see the facilities as well as how the staff care for the dogs. If we feel that your dog is a good fit for our environment, you can then proceed to book your dog in for their next big adventure!
