Customer reviews
I cannot recommend The Dogfather, Dom and his team highly enough. They are incredibly professional and all the handlers are great (big shout out to Laia). Their booking service is efficient and if I ever have any last minute requests they do everything possible to accommodate my change of plans. My GSP is their biggest fan!
Philippa Thomas
We’ve been using The Dogfather’s services for 2 years now. Our dog, Rosie, has a lovely time with them at day care, the updates are always detailed with great pictures and she’s always comes home exhausted after her fun day out! Dom, Dan and the team are very professional and easy to deal with.
George Finch
Our boy LOVES the Dogfather. It's so nice seeing how happy he is when that knock on the door comes, literally no stopping him once they come to get him. The service reports, which we call his school reports- are brilliant, so thank you to the team at the dogfather, they make our day. Really good and reliable service, you get notified at pick up/drop off so you always know they're okay- which is super reassuring when you've left for work and are feeling guilty.

I’m so happy to have found The Dogfather family! My dog, Mack, has been attending daycare, doing afternoon walks and boarded with Nicki and Rob. I’ve had a hard time finding reliable dog care and for the first time I’ve been able to go on holiday and not have to worry at all about Mack’s care. Everyone at The Dogfather is so friendly and genuinely loves dogs and I can’t recommend them enough!
