Daycare at Maison des Animaux - £28 per Day
Daycare is at the heart of Maison.
Over the past 6 years, we’ve carefully developed our facilities, trained our team, and refined our approach — all with one goal: to provide safe, calm, and enriching social experiences for dogs.
We don’t believe in overexcitement or overstimulation. Instead, we offer structured play, purposeful enrichment, and time to rest — all tailored to your dog’s needs. Our playgroups are thoughtfully matched by size, energy, age, and temperament, and our team is trained to understand and develop canine behaviour — not just supervise it.
This balanced approach means dogs leave us feeling content, not exhausted — and owners have peace of mind knowing their dog is in safe, experienced hands.
Joining Daycare at Maison.
The first step is to book a visit — a chance for you and your dog to look around our facilities and meet the team. We don’t offer short-notice bookings for new dogs, because getting it right for your dog (and the dogs they’ll join) is our top priority.
Once the visit is complete, your dog begins an induction period, where they’re carefully assessed by a senior team member. This allows us to understand their needs, monitor their behaviour, and ensure they’ll thrive in our environment.
We only accept dogs who benefit from the daycare setting and are a good fit for our existing groups. Once the induction is complete and your dog is happy and settled, they’re officially part of the Maison family.
Is Daycare Right for Your Dog?
Daycare isn’t the right fit for every dog — and that’s okay. Some dogs find the busy, social environment overwhelming, which is exactly why we have an induction period: to give every dog the best chance to settle in and thrive.
We include basic training and behaviour support as part of our daycare service. However, we’re not currently equipped to support dogs with more serious behavioural challenges, such as resource guarding or intense dominance behaviours. In these cases, we strongly recommend working with a qualified behaviourist before considering daycare, as this type of environment can unintentionally make things worse.
It’s also completely normal for dogs to feel a little nervous when they first join us — just like we might on our first day at a new job or school. With patience and support from our team, most dogs settle in beautifully.
Please note: We do not accept all breeds. See below for our current breed restrictions.
