Our Facility

Mabel & Friends day retreat was built with the aim to provide the best possible dog day care services to the local area – a one stop shop that meets all care requirements, where dog owners can access everything they need under one roof. We have a spacious, excellently equipped day centre that features substantial indoor and outdoor areas, which have been meticulously designed to keep your canine companions comfortable in all weather.

Luxury dog retreat

Mabel & Friends is home to a generously sized and excellently equipped day centre that features a wealth of indoor and outdoor activity space. We have over 2,600 sq ft of secure indoor space and over half an acre of secure grassed area outdoors, meaning there’s more than enough space for our guests to sniff out and explore while they play and stretch their legs.

We have a fully qualified team that operates on a maximum staff:dog ratio of 1:8. This ensures that they’re able to deliver a high standard of care across the board, and keeps levels of attention consistent across all of our guests. We also have a good understanding of the specialist care of Brachycephalic breeds including Pug, English and French Bulldog, Boxer, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Boston Terrier, Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apso.

No dog goes home dirty no matter the time of year! All dogs are washed down if they’ve been playing in wet and muddy fields, they will then have robes on to dry and be put in the lounge to relax. This ensures they are sent home clean and sweet smelling after a fun and relaxing day.

If you opt for our canine taxi option you’ll be please to know that it’s fully fitted out with air flow/heating/air conditioning, and the crates are fitted with rubber flooring to transport your pup safely and comfortably.
