About this option.

A quiet care plan is for pets who prefer a slower day: shy dogs, older dogs who tire easily, cats who like company but not commotion, or any pet who does better with fewer friends and more rest.

We start with a conversation about how they like to spend their time, what worries them and what helps. Then we plan a day with more quiet time, one or two calm companions or none at all, and a carer nearby.

Quiet care plans work alongside drop-in days or regular days. We’ll keep checking in with you and adjust as we learn more about your pet.

How it goes.

  1. Arrive

    A quiet hello

    A calm drop-off at a quieter time, with time to settle before anything else.

  2. Morning

    Gentle company

    One or two calm friends, or a carer to sit with, in a quieter part of the room.

  3. Midday

    Plenty of rest

    A soft bed in a quiet corner, with someone nearby.

  4. Afternoon

    At their pace

    A short sniff walk, a gentle game or more rest, whichever they prefer.

For dogs, and for cats.

The same option, planned around who’s coming.

Dogs

  • Smaller groups or a calm friend
  • Short, gentle sniffing walks
  • Extra rest and a soft bed in a quiet spot

Cats

  • A covered bed and a hiding spot
  • A carer who sits quietly nearby
  • Never picked up if they don’t want to be

Being honest about what suits them.

Some pets blossom with a quieter day. Others are happier at home with a sitter, and that’s fine too. We’ll tell you honestly what we see and what we think would help your pet most.

If your pet has a health condition, takes medication or is recovering from something, talk to your vet about whether daycare suits them right now, and share their advice with us.

What to bring.

  • Lead and harness, or their carrier
  • Their usual bed or blanket, if it helps
  • Food in a labeled container, if needed
  • Notes on what helps them relax
