What Is Doggy Day Care?

Doggy day-care is just like nursery or pre-school for your toddler. It’s a chance for your dog to spend the day in the company of others, playing and being entertained, while being looked after by trained experts who can monitor their wellbeing and keep them safe.

Just like pre-school, it will teach your dog vital social skills, including how to mix and play well with others, with dog training specialists on hand to make sure they get the most from the experience.

How Does Daycare For Dogs Work?

Essentially, it works just like the equivalent for your kids. You drop your dog off in the morning, on your way to work, we take care of them all day, and then you pick them up in the evening on your way home.

It’s much more than just a kennel or dog-sitting service, which simply provides accommodation for your dog. Daycare is an active, exciting way for them to spend their day, with lots of people and other dogs to play with. And just like the children’s version, doggy daycare can really help to build their confidence and social skills around other dogs.

Benefits Of The Lounge Doggy Day Care in Lancaster

Helps With Work-Life Balance

If you are out at work all day, it can be pretty dull for your dog, especially if they are left in the house on their own with nothing to do. It’s no surprise that they get up to mischief, shredding your post, digging up the carpet and chewing your slippers.

We are here to help you balance pet care with your busy schedule, so you can go about your day with peace of mind.

Provides Socialisation And Attention

With The Lounge Doggy Day-Care in Lancaster, you can relax knowing that your dog will be well cared for in an entertaining, engaging environment, by people who will treat them as if they were their own.

Your dog will have loads of fun and get plenty of exercise, so they will be as tired as you are when you get home. Instead of bouncing about wanting to play or go for a walk, you can both flop onto the sofa together.

Also, dogs naturally enjoy being part of a pack, so they much prefer to be with other dogs instead of being stuck in on their own. A bored and lonely dog can lead to destructive behaviour and barking issues. 

Establishes A Routine And Good Behaviour Patterns

Dogs are creatures of habit, so they will appreciate the structure of being dropped off at daycare every day. Additionally, our expert trainers are on hand to help improve your dog’s behaviour and enhance your relationship with them.

A Great Alternative To Dog Walking

Hiring someone to come and walk your dog is a popular solution to make sure your dog gets the exercise and mental stimulation they need. However, finding a skilled, insured and experienced dog walker who has the capacity to take on your dog is generally not easy.

Additionally, there is no official registration required, meaning that anyone can set up a dog walking service. While there are many experienced dog walkers out there, it is important to be wary of those who are merely looking for financial gain.

Our teams are all highly experienced dog handlers. They are also supervised by fully trained dog trainers, who will understand your dog and socialise them with the right pack, rather than randomly adding them to their dog walking route. This will help your dog to feel more settled and enjoy the experience much more. Daycare has the advantage of looking after your dog all day long, rather than just for an hour or so during walk time.

 Dog Daycare Activities

The Lounge Doggy Day-Care is the largest dog care facility in the North West, with a huge range of environments for your dog to explore and enjoy, both indoors and out. They will have plenty of friends to play with too, with our friendly team always on hand to make sure all our day care dogs get on with each other and have fun.

We’ve got decades of experience with dogs, so we know how to keep them amused and occupied all day long, with the kind of stimulating games and exercise that they love.

Dog Daycare And Training

Aside from the wealth of activities we provide, we even offer a range of training services. This means that your dog will not only leave feeling excited and tired, but they can also come home with confidence and valuable skills to take forward. Ultimately, this will improve the relationship and trust between you and your furry friend tenfold.
