Every day at Valley View is carefully structured to balance play, socialisation, enrichment and rest so that dogs return home happy and relaxed

8.30am-10.10am

Our day begins with morning collections as the dogs are picked up and brought to daycare ready for a fun and active day ahead. Dogs travel safely in our vans, which are fitted with custom crash-tested crates to ensure a comfortable and secure journey for every dog. No dogs share crate spaces unless from the same household

10.20am-10.45am

Arrival time! Dogs settle into their group for the day, greet their friends and any new arrivals are gently introduced so everyone feels comfortable and relaxed

10.45am-12.00pm

Dogs head out into our secure outdoor play areas where they can run, explore and socialise. We use multiple play spaces and carefully group dogs according to their size, energy levels and play style to ensure a safe, balanced and enjoyable experience for every dog

12.00pm-12.45pm

Rest and recharge! Dogs head into our heated cabin where they can relax on comfortable beds in their own quiet space. Those that require lunch are fed during this time, allowing everyone the opportunity to rest, recharge and settle before the afternoon activities begin

12.45pm-2.30pm

Afternoon play session. Dogs head back out into the play areas for more supervised fun, socialising and exploration. We incorporate enrichment activities and sensory games to keep dogs mentally stimulated as well as physically active

2.30pm-3.00pm

Wind-down time. As the day comes to an end, dogs return to the cabin where they are encouraged to relax and settle after a busy day of play. During this time, dogs are bathed and blow-dried so they head home clean, dry and smelling lovely

3.15pm-5.00pm

Dogs are safely dropped back home after a fun-filled day at daycare, returning tired, happy and content after a day of play, enrichment and socialising with their friends
