Doggy Day Care
Monday to Friday - 8am to 6pm.
Weekends & Bank Holidays: Get in touch!
Your dog is part of your family, but when you go on holiday, they can't always go with you. Rather than put your dog in kennels, give them a holiday at Hilltop Dogs!
We do not provide food and ask owners to bring along familiar food – an abrupt diet change can often lead to tummy troubles or other unpleasantness. We will provide the treats and bedtime biscuits!

Intact Male Dogs and Female Dogs
We know that not everyone is comfortable neutering their dogs so we don’t enforce it and manage it on a case by case basis.
Intact dogs over the age of one year will be assessed and monitored to ensure that there are no unwanted behaviours or disruption within the group. However, if intact dogs show any sexualised behaviour, we may ask that you stop sending them until they have been neutered.
Bitches on heat should never be sent to day care. As well as the risk of unwanted pregnancy, her pheromones can have a significant impact on the other dogs, even if they have been neutered. This can lead to unwanted attention for her, or even aggression among dogs.
If you are unsure about your dog's suitability, please contact us, and we will be happy to discuss if we can accommodate your needs.
PROOF OF VACCINACTION: Please ensure your dog is up-to-date on vaccinations and send us proof prior to arrival. Please also show the vaccination certificate upon arrival. Written proof from a veterinarian of titre testing showing sufficient antibodies can also be accepted. Titre tests must be completed annually and will only be accepted alongside a up-to-date Leptospirosis vaccination.
HOME BOARDING: To ensure the wellbeing of all our guests, we recommend a Kennel Cough vaccine administered at least two weeks prior to boarding. This live virus vaccine has been proven to protect other dogs from possible risk for up to 14 days post-administration.
Keep your dog healthy and free of parasites by ensuring their flea/worming treatments are up-to-date. If we discover any fleas during your dog's stay, treatment will be administered at an additional charge applied.
The health and wellness of your dog is important to us. Should they require veterinary care, we will do our best to contact your usual vet. If not, we'll use our own registered vet so that your dog can be back on their paws quickly.
If your dog requires regular medication, we can administer this free of charge.
