DOG DAY CARE BRISTOL
Dog Day Care Service in Bristol
Each enriching hike provides the perfect mix of physical activity and mental stimulation. Your dog will take in a variety of natural settings in and around Bristol, where the group can sniff, snuffle and wag their way through the landscape.
Your dog will be collected between 9 and 10 AM for day care and will be returned to your home between 4 and 5 PM by the walker.
The walker will take into consideration the needs of the pack giving the older ones an opportunity to take things at their own pace or sometimes by jogging with the dogs who enjoy a good run!

Why Choose Walks with the Pack for Dog Day Care?
Small Groups Guaranteed
Our walks are in manageable, small groups, of no more than five dogs, and our walkers are behaviourally aware and alert to how the group of dogs interact with each other; we will notice if play gets at all chaotic and we will calm things down by switching the most excited dogs to lead walking for a few minutes, or distracting with scent games, which tends to bring the energy levels down a notch or two. We usually avoid throwing balls or other toys as this can cause resource guarding among the group but if we know the group really well, then this sort of play is possible.
Exciting Locations
We are constantly finding new walks in and around Bristol as well as visiting old favourites and some of the more well known dog walking spots. Bristol has so much to offer for energetic dogs who love to explore and we make the most of it! We even head out of Bristol towards locations on the Mendips borders.
Typical Day Care Schedule
90-minute Morning Hike
Your dog will be collected between 9.00 and 10.00 AM for locations in and around Bristol, and the group will head for the hills, forest and sometimes even the beach for a stimulating 90-minute hike.
Lunchtime Break
Your dog will enjoy some downtime at lunchtime, with plenty of opportunity to rest with a trained walker.
90-minute Afternoon Hike
After a much-needed rest, we head out for the afternoon session. Another exciting 90-minute hike, providing the perfect mix of exploration, play and mental stimulation.
A wash and dry!

At the end of the session, we return to the vehicle where the doggy wash awaits, and muddy dogs will get a spray down and a towel down before hopping into their vet grade fur lined crate or doggy hammock for the journey home.
Hometime
The group are well rested and comfortable on their way home, and many of them nap on route to their homes in and around Bristol, while we tend to take in a podcast! Your dog will then be returned to your home between 4 and 5 PM.
