About Doggy Day Care
Doggy Daycare at the Willows
![]()
Doggy Daycare at The Willows is a family run business, and we’ve been working with dogs for well over a decade. Before the pandemic, we ran dog boarding kennels. As our business changed, we spotted a need in the market and decided to open our doggy day care centre. Many families got dogs during lockdown, but then needed to go back to work. Many dogs were not properly socialised, and this is one of our main aims with our day care services.
We know that your fur babies are one of the family and we always look after them as if they’re our own. Led by Lisette Sampey and managed by her mum, Sue Sampey, our team have a genuine passion for dogs. Lisette also previously supported her mum with the running of the boarding kennels. Many of our customers send their dogs to us just for socialising and because they love coming to play!
Five-star Licensed Premises
As our doggy day care centre is a five-star licensed premises, your pooches will enjoy the highest level of care with top class facilities and a higher level of supervision. We have one member of staff to every eight dogs. We know our customers and their fur babies by name.
You and your dog will enjoy a really personalised service. Our staff receive a high level of ongoing training, so they can look after your dogs in the best possible way. This ensures that play is safe, enjoyable and fun. We cater for all of your day care and grooming requirements.

What Our Clients Think

“Cooper has been coming here almost weekly now since around February and he absolutely loves it. He’s made friends, seems to be coming out of his shell more and has become such a confident puppy. The team are wonderful, we always get told how his day has been and he’s so excited to go in when we arrive. Considering how many dogs come through here weekly it’s amazing the personal touch they can add with pictures and updates about your dogs day. Best decision we ever made bringing Cooper here.”
