dexter's dogs - the daycare your dog would choose
07904 886608
Welcome to our friendly and experienced daycare and boarding service in Borehamwood. Why not send your best friend to enjoy some wonderful walks and play dates? We offer genuinely constant care: guest dogs are never left alone as there are two of us, so you can have real peace of mind.
We are trusted by local dog owners from Radlett and Elstree, as well as those from slightly further afield such as Aldenham, Barnet, Bushey, Stanmore and Mill Hill.
We are licensed by Hertsmere Council and fully insured.
peace of mind for you - guaranteed fun for your dog
We all want the same thing for our dogs when we can't be with them - a safe pair of hands to care for them.
That's what we offer here at our friendly and highly experienced daycare in Borehamwood.
We are tucked away in a quiet cul- de-sac, and three steps from our front door are wonderful rolling fields and woods. It's a real paradise for pooches!
We offer all the comforts of home, with large squashy sofas and luxurious pet beds, plus a secure and private garden.
And as there are two of us, our guest dogs are never left alone.
trusted by local dog owners
Our ethos is simple: we provide the type of care we would want our own dogs to experience.
And because we keep our numbers low, and there are two of us always here, each dog enjoys a level of attention that is unrivalled and really valued by our clients.
We tailor care to each dog’s needs, whether they thrive in gentle social play, quiet walks, or simply enjoying calm downtime - because no two dogs are the same.
It is this highly personalised approach that is so valued by owners from Radlett, Elstree and Borehamwood. We also have owners bringing their dogs to us from slightly further afield, including Stanmore, Bushey and Barnet.
constant company - guest dogs are never left alone
We are both lifelong dog owners, and we have each fostered and rescued several times.
Over the past fourteen years, we have been privileged to care for many different types and breeds.
Most of our daycare regulars started coming here as young puppies and we have watched them mature into wonderful adult dogs.
Seeing the friendships that develop between them is a real joy to behold.
Any new members of the group are carefully vetted to ensure that only soft-natured, sociable dogs become part of the gang :)
We take the responsibility of looking after people's precious dogs very seriously.

In addition, I have done numerous dog training courses with the IMDT (Institute of Modern Dog Training)
small walking groups and recall training
Our daycare dogs enjoy wonderful walks and we do recall training with all of them, using both whistles and verbal cues.
Safety is always our top priority and we only allow dogs off lead once we have established a really solid recall with them.
Some of our dogs love a lively game of Frisbee!
We are blessed to have stunning parkland right on our doorstep and we spend a lot of our time there, enjoying gorgeous walks.
All dogs are thoroughly cleaned and dried afterwards.
