Give your puppy the best start in life with structured, safe, and rewarding social experiences at Stapleford Doggy Day Care.
Our rural-based dog care facility near Melton Mowbray and Oakham is unlike any standard pet-sitting service. We blend the comforts of a home-from-home with structured routines. Here's how we help socialise your puppy the right way:
Exposure to new dogs, people, and environments in a controlled, positive setting
Consistent reinforcement of good behaviours, like waiting calmly, recall, and polite greetings
Safe play with dogs of various ages and temperaments, promoting confidence
Routine and structure, which is essential during adolescence (6 to 18 months)
Reduced energy at home, resulting in a calmer pup ready to cuddle
Daycare becomes a rewarding space where tail wags and good manners go hand in paw.
Puppyhood is a critical period for learning and development. From 8 weeks to around 18 months (depending on breed), puppies experience an impressionable stage of life that shapes their behaviour for years to come. Poor socialisation can lead to nervousness, anxiety, and behavioural issues. That's why our structured puppy day care in Stapleford is the perfect environment to foster your puppy’s confidence and calm, sociable nature.
We provide a warm, nurturing space for puppies to interact, explore, and learn – all while having fun.
Our team uses positive reinforcement throughout the day. Whether your puppy is learning to:
Sit patiently when being petted or groomed
Greet a new friend without barking
Come when called
Wait calmly for their turn
They will always be rewarded with affection and praise. This reinforces trust and strengthens the bond between your puppy and our carers.
We’re more than just a place to leave your dog while you’re at work. Here’s why local dog owners love us:
