Hi i'm Megan and I started Doggie Day Camp in 2018. The story of how the company was created is all down to a French Bulldog called Hugo. Hugo was only 12 weeks old when I bought him but I worked full time. I also lived in an apartment which meant Hugo was on his own for the majority of the day until I visited him every lunch time. For me this meant rushing home every day from work and checking on him (bumping my car in the mean time!). I lived on my own and my family all had their own lives and full time jobs. I knew I couldn’t rely on them all the time as it wouldn’t be fair!

I decided I needed someone to look after Hugo but no one in my area offered all day care, only an hour walk which worked out very expensive!! Dog walkers charged £15-£20 for an hour, to me this was a lot of money just for an hour a day. I also needed all day care for Hugo and the thought of him on his own, bored all day worried me half to death! In the end I thought there is obviously a market for this type of service, surely other people are in the same situation as me?

Doggie Day Camp only charges £28 for a 6 hour day! We have a fully insured, crated van that picks up your dog in the morning, and drops them back once the day is over. Hassle free!

Meet the team:

So as I said, Hi i'm Meg! My little dog walking business has now flourished into a fully established dog day care centre with four team members which I couldn't be more proud of. I previously worked as a buyer in Peacocks head office but always dreamed of working within the animal industry. I am fully qualified in canine first aid and now have experience of over 7 years working with all kinds of breeds.

As well as myself, there are three other staff members who are also fully qualified and spend their days entertaining and taking great care of the dogs with us at Doggie Day Camp.
