Reviews of Ipswich Dog Daycare Creche & Pet Groomer

D. H.

Our two boys have such a lovely time here. They come back shattered from a days play and fun. The evenings are very quiet in our house after a day at crèche! Def recommend they have all shapes and sizes and it’s a fab place for your pooch.

I couldn’t recommend Ipswich Dog Day care enough after sending my sensitive sausage “Don” the bulldog here. He had a beautiful groom and was showered in love and affection. Usually don takes a while to come round to new places but he made himself right at home almost instantly which gave me great comfort. All thanks to the lovely kind staff here, will be 100% returning 🥰

R. W.

My spaniel Chip LOVES it at day care. The staff are so nice especially Abbie who goes above and beyond, Lauren and Claire also! He has the best time and so glad we dont have to worry about him when we have to go to work. The groomer Merin is amazing too, Chip always looks and smells amazing 🥰 Thank you ALL for looking after our pup so well.

E. J.

Absolutely brilliant. Our pup loves going, has so much fun that she can barely keep her eyes open! The staff are so kind and caring, letting us know how her day goes. Lexi had her first groom there, looked and smelt AMAZING.

S. H.

Suki always looks pawfect and smells pawsitively divine after a Dolly’s spa grooming session! Much recommended to friends, family and any other pawrents we get chatting to 🐾🐾

N. P.

My puppy loves the crèche so much. At 1st I was worried about leaving her but after a couple of sessions I could see how much the staff love the dogs and felt completely at ease. I would totally recommend this doggy crèche to anyone!

Little Ms Tinkerbell just loves attending Ipswich Doggy Daycare Creche. Professional and approachable business well qualified in all aspects of dog behaviour/socialization/obedience and training skills. Clare and her dedicated team commit to really get to know your dog and subject to a temperament test(which is free) I can highly recommend this fabulous Doggy Creche for your very special canine companion. They offer half/full days of great fun, interaction and lots of play you can leave them safe in the knowledge that they are well cared for and having a great time! Highly Recommend, Your dogs happiness is guaranteed!!

Clare and all staff are very friendly and calm. You can feel, when you enter that they're very calm. I was a bit nervous leaving my puppy for the first time, but he engaged with Clare and did not even look back. Once he got home I could already see a different dog, calm and less jumpy. His behaviour definitely progressed in one morning only. He will definitely be back! Very pleased!

S. S.

We are so happy with the grooming service. We also get some tips how to brush our Reggie. Would really recommend this place. Thank you

As you can see from the pictures Dylan absolutely loves going to creche to see Aunty Clare, the team and his friends. Dylan is a typical young labrador with boundless energy who needs an avenue to burn it off and this has been a life saver!! The one day a week at creche makes all the difference and means he is calmer for the rest of the week. It also means we don't feel as bad about him being home alone while we work. Seeing pictures like these of how happy it makes him is worth every penny. Every week pictures are uploaded of what they've been up to that week with theme weeks and different games. Clare is brilliant as well, always takes the time to talk to you about how your dogs been through out the day and picks up on things. When Dylan first started she noticed that his paw pads were worn, so she kept an eye on him all day even tayloring the games he was doing to make sure he didn't hurt them, then told us about it when we picked him up and advised us to let him rest for a few days. We can't recommend Ipswich Canine Creche enough!!

Brilliant daycare facility, our Dachshund Dave loves going to Ipswich Dog Daycare, he's always so excited when we pull up outside to drop him off! He has stimulation all day, gets to socialise with all sorts of other dogs (and people!), and always comes home extremely happy and tired!! We're so happy to leave him with Aunty Claire and team all of them are amazing, they really care about the dogs and their welfare. We often get comments about how sociable and well adapted our dog is and it's all down to him attending here since being a pup. Would recommend 110%!

C. F.

Matilda just loves her time here. She’s our office dog and is with us all the time, and we felt she needed time apart from us once a week (I’m sure she feels the same!) to socialise. Clare and her team are always welcoming, professional and full of positivity! I feel very confident and comfortable leaving her with Clare, a big thank you from us!

A. L.

Our nearly 3 year old mini poodle Holly LOVES coming to creche 2 days a week. She often goes in with the puppies to play and be "teacher's assistant", which we think is hilarious. She's not daft, the puppies have better treats and their games are more fun! She comes home happy and tired after a super day and I have no hesitation in recommending Clare, Abbie and the team!

Our young cockerpoo Honey absolutely loved going to Ipswich Dog Daycare. As soon as we'd arrive in the car she couldn't wait to get through the doors. She started going from quite a young age and has learnt invaluable socialisation skills. She'd always come home exhausted (which was brilliant for us) and we'd love checking up on the weekly photos to see what she'd been up to. Unfortunately we've had to move away and we're dreading trying to find another daycare as we know they won't be as good! Thank you ever so much to Clare and the rest of the lovely team x

B. P.

We send our cocker spaniel puppy to creche once/twice a week and these guys do such an amazing job! Our puppy is so tired when she comes home and we know from the photos and feedback that she’s had the best time playing with the other dogs. It’s so good for her to be able to socialise with dogs of all sizes and she is now a very confident puppy in all environments! We are so lucky to be able to take her to somewhere with such amazing staff who love and cuddle your dogs just like we do! What an amazing team and a brilliant place to take your pups! Highly recommend Ipswich Dog Day Care! So much so.. we’ve even booked a private hire for our pups first birthday to have a 2 hour fun filled session with all her doggy friends!!

T. S.

We’ve been using Ipswich Dog Daycare Creche for little while and really love it. Clare and her team are great, they’ve been very welcoming of our pup that suffers with some separation anxiety and have been building her confidence week on week. The dog loves going and sleeps all evening when she gets home. The building works really well for the dogs, with a separate area for the shy and smaller dogs that helps them to build the confidence they need to muster it with the big boys. I’d fully recommend Ipswich Dog Daycare Creche. I know my pup is in good hands, and I can relax whilst she’s there. Thanks to Clare and the whole team x

S. G.

Could not speak more highly of Clare and the team at Ipswich Dog Daycare. They have all been so friendly and welcoming and our Vizsla loves them too. I get dragged through the door by a very excited dog each morning when I drop him off and the team are always happy to see him. Going to Creche has given him a day to socialize and play where we know he is safe and taken good care of and he comes home tired and ready to sleep as a bonus !

F. S.

We are really pleased with the care and service we receive from Ipswich Doggy daycare Creche. I was really nervous leaving Betty in someone else's care especially with other dogs, as I had heard horror stories from other Day Care places. The moment we met Claire that all changed, she put my mind at ease straight away showed me round the Creche and explained how it works. They have a strict policy on what dogs they allow in and all dogs are tested before they can go to the Creche, just from speaking to Claire for a few minutes you can see she is fantastic at her job, she really cares about all the dogs and I knew I was leaving Betty in safe hands. The staff are all trained really well and just lovely. Betty loves coming to Creche every time we get near she gets excited and she's exhausted by the end of the day which is great. Claire always takes the time to give us feedback on how Betty has got on at the end of her day and is full of advice for any questions we have. The Creche is nice and cool, ideal on hot days when we can't take her out and the prices are really reasonable too. All in all top service.

J. W.

Clare and her team are really professional and provide a great service for you and your dogs. Our Whippet Blue absolutely loves the days he spends here and is always happy and calm when he comes home, I truly think it's doing him wonders because he has so much energy to let out. I would highly recommend and hope to continue bringing Blue here for many years.

Monty Dog has the most excellent time at Ipswich Dog Daycare Creche. He always bounces in to creche without so much as a goodbye to me and it's clear he is very well looked after. I've had great care taken of Monty particularly when he's had moments with illness where he's needed an extra eye on. Clare and her team go above and beyond to make sure that owners are as well taken care of as the dogs, offering a useful Animal First Aid course earlier this year. Social events on top of the dogs' creche time mean the owners get to meet each other as well. Monty's favourite bit will always be lunchtime but he comes home and tells me what a great day he's had by how well he settles in the evening and how well mannered he is around other dogs when we are on walks.

P. H.

Aunty Clare and the team at Ipswich Dog Daycare Creche have been amazing with our 14 week Standard Poodle Rufus. From the puppy party we went to to his first day at Creche! I was so nervous about leaving Rufus somewhere but my mind was soon put to ease. I rang up after a few hours to check on him and Clare answered and was able to give me a full in-depth update on him straight away, she didn’t need to go and ask anyone or anything, she knew! I really feel like Creche is more than a job to everyone there. Feels like Rufus is part of the family already! I wasn’t rushed when dropping or picking him up and Clare was available to ask any questions regarding absolutely anything dog related. I feel happy knowing Rufus is in good hands. Thanks so much everyone at Creche!

An amazing home away from home for my two dogs who have been going there regularly since they were first allowed out! Not just a good value option for doggy care, it’s actually essential socialisation, stimulation and a confidence boost for all dogs. The creche has dogs of all ages and sizes but all have been temperament tested so I know my pups are getting a fun but safe experience. ‘Aunty Clare’ (as the pups know her) is flexible and friendly, putting the dogs first; treating them as her own. I cannot tell you how excited my two get when I say the words “Aunty Clare” or “creche” and it’s lovely to have a little time each week to clean up the dog hair and hide my shoes ;-)

S. L.

Cordelia had an enormous fear of large dog as she was so small herself. Since going to the creche her fear has reduced to some degree and she no longer barks like a banshee when she sees one. I also have to attend hospital on a monthly basis and knowing that i have some where for her to go where she is safe and happy is invaluable. I would recommend it to any dog owner, Clare the owner of the creche is a very experienced dog owner herself and has a good understanding of dog psychology and dogs physical needs.

R. B.

The facilities seem excellent and the pricing is fair. Our dog clearly had a wonderful time and enjoyed himself, and it's definitely worth it for socialization and exercise purposes. This is a big daycare, with many different dogs, so a great experience for them all! Our dog stayed at the daycare for a few days earlier in the year, but unfortunately starting showing poorly symptoms and developed gastroenteritis after his first day. We did express some concern after the first day, but we didn't feel as though his health was monitored as closely as it should have been - his health quickly declined and he needed urgent vet attention shortly after the second day, despite being told that everything was fine by the daycare. I think it was fair to say we should have trusted our gut, but as young dog owners we did feel slightly patronised. I still feel as though the daycare is an excellent place for many dogs and I'm sure it is difficult to keep track, but it may be worth considering a more intimate day care if your dog requires a closer eye or starts to show signs of weariness or sickness, as this can be difficult to catch amongst everything going on.

T. N.

Clare and her team are fantastic, I can't recommend highly enough. More importantly, my dog Bruno simply loves it there - I think he may actually leave me one day and take up residence at the creche! The peace of mind of knowing that I can be out for the day, and that he will be well cared for and happy for all that time, is priceless.

J. H.

This is the only time Monty stands still for his lead to go on when he is told he’s going to see Auntie Claire he absolutely loves his friends and the staff. He loves his social scene and if he could talk he would sing everyone’s praises. We know he is in safe hands and more importantly loving hands who embrace the dogs no marker what their behaviour. We are so lucky to have this facility in our area. Keep up the good work it’s important and thank you!!!

L. N.

Buddy absolutely loves coming to crèche! Claire and her team are fantastic and I know he’s safe and well looked after when he attends. If you’re not confident about leaving your pup with someone different, go along to an open evening or a puppy party and you’ll see for yourself how brilliant they are with them all! Thanks Claire (and team)!

We took Luna to a lovely open day so she could familiarise herself a little with the crèche then 3 days later she went for her first half day. As a rescue pup of 7 months (we have had her 1 month) we were apprehensive about leaving her and asking too much of her but she absolutely loved it! Clare took some videos of her playing with other dogs so that I could see what she'd been up to and I felt so reassured that she had had a brilliant morning. Got her home and before I could even take her collar off she was laying down trying to get some rest! Luna is looking forward to the next time mummy has a meeting and can't make it home at lunch!

S. G.

Edie loves going to creche, she has been attending for once a week for around 9 months. It has helped her learn to play with the other dogs and she comes home very tired from her exciting day! I can relax in the knowledge that she is being well looked after by Aunty Clare and her team. I look forward to the weekly photo post on FaceBook, it is great to be able to see what they have all been up to!!

C. i.

I have worked with Clare, Danny and the team on several occasions now in my capacity as a photographer. I have witnessed first hand how they go above and beyond to ensure every dog has the best time whilst in their care,every individual dogs needs are met and the value of the opportunity for dogs to socialise is something you just can't put a price on. They provide extra events for customers and non customers to attend regularly and the facilities are fantastic, the atmosphere is amazing and to see the dogs all get on is just brilliant. I had the best time working with them , and I'm looking forward to sending my own dog soon. This really is a great place .

A. S.

Clare is amazing and makes every visit to Creche for my little sausage Luna fun and exciting. Luna Loves Clare and creche and I never have to worry about her being there because her excitement when I mention the word 'clare' or 'creche' says it all. Would highly recommend this place. The love and effort Clare displays for these dogs is second to none.

M. F.

Absolutely brilliant!! We’ve been sending our dog to Ipswich dog day care crèche a few times a week since he was 5 month old and he absolutely loves it, he cannot wait to get through the door in the mornings. It has been great for his development and Socialisation. Our dog is completely exhausted in the evenings and has a very content snooze on crèche days. I’d recommend Clare and the team to anyone.

G. C.

Daisy my little sausage dog goes to this creche. She is 8yrs old and she loves Claire the owner. She licks her face all over! Claire is great and nothing is a problem. Daisy always has a good time at the creche. Would highly recommend.

L. W.

My dog loves coming to the Ipswich Canine Creche, so much so that he doesn't even say goodbye when I drop him off, he just goes without even turning back!! Clare and her team provide all the love and fun a dog could need and treat the dogs like their own. Highly recommend :)

N. G.

Toby goes to the Creche once and sometimes twice a week and loves every minute - in fact I am sure everyone hears him as he gets so excited when he gets close and can't wait to get in. He is only 2 years old but after attending the Creche he has become a better dog all due, I am sure, to Clare and the team's attention to behaviour and training. I would strongly recommend the Creche. Thank you Clare and the team.

T. P.

My dog simba the fox red lab goes every week and absolutely loves it the manager clare and all her team are amazing what they do . And even teach simba and train him aswell there amazing what they do . And he always knackered after his day there he loves it . 5* service all the time

S. I.

I would recommend Ipswich Dog Daycare Creche, our dog Pippa always has a great time there. You know when your dog enjoys an activity and Pippa can't wait to get in when she arrives and meet all the other dogs. The staff are friendly and reliable and I have the utmost trust in their care of our dog.

S. M.

First visit for Oscar today at Dolly’s Spa and can safely say the best he’s ever had! Such a warm and friendly experience from start to finish. Thank you to Clare and her team who were professional and quick to respond from the first call to when we colllecyed him. Highly recommend 😊

T. D.

We have a chilled out, friendly dog and that it because she has been going to this crèche. We have loved the extra treats for the humans too such as puppy days and walks. We really missed the crèche during lockdown and are so pleased it is open again. All the staff are dog lovers and so friendly and welcoming 😁

C. H.

What a great place for my doggy to go, Noah the Labrador loves it. . Aunty Clare and all the staff are amazing entertaining and looking after the dogs in their care.

P. G.

Hi My name is Reggie and i go to creche most weeks, not because i have to, but because i want to, i like to see all my friends to socialise with and have some great fun. The staff are all brilliant, i can tell they are all dog lovers and also get pleasure playing with us! i was a bit nervous on my first couple of visits, but now i can't wait for my weekly visit.

L. B.

Cannot rate this highly enough . My dog cannot get through the door fast enough and he's a big boy and doesn't usually move very fast. The staff are absolutely fantastic and the creche facilities superb. It's great to no your beloved dog is getting the best while your not with them and Clare and her team certainly provide that.

J. K.

My pooch Doris has been going to Creche here for about 6 months now. She absolutely loves it, and is always excited to go in. The staff are all super friendly and knowledgeable, and I always feel confident that Doris is happy and safe when she's with them. Can't recommend them enough!!

K. M.

The minute I open the front door to the Creche Sky is off without a backwards glance or bye to me .. She has so much fun when she goes and plays great with the other dogs . Aunty Clare is just the person you want looking after your dog ... fun , full of energy and everyday is treated like a party I would highly recommend this Creche 😊🐶

J. L.

We took Dumpling for her 1st half day with a promise that she would sleep well when she got home. Wrong!!! She was so excited and hyper for a couple of hours but after having her dinner we couldn't find her. She put herself to bed and didn't get up until the next morning.. absolutely loved it.

S. E.
