What a stay looks like
Your dog lives here the way they live at home. Not in a run, not on a schedule built around a facility’s shift roster, in a house, with other dogs chosen to suit them, and a trainer watching how it is going.
Everyone who stays is under 15kg. My own two whippets are the largest dogs here, so nobody is outmatched and nobody is overwhelmed.
No dog arrives here as a stranger.
I do not take a dog I have not met. Before any stay we work through this together, and it costs you nothing.
A free meet and greet, here at my home. Your dog sees the house, meets my whippets, and I watch how they handle the place. This is where I tell you honestly whether it is going to work.
A few daycare visits. Short stays first, so your dog learns the routine while the stakes are low and, more importantly, learns that you come back. Every single time.
Then the real stay. By the time you actually leave, this is somewhere your dog already knows.
