At Zoomies, not only are we Dubai’s highest rated doggy daycare, more importantly we know what it takes when looking for that perfect second home that covers the unique needs of both you and your dog.
In this guide we are going to explore everything you need to know about dog daycare in Dubai.
So lets get to it and where better to start than……
What exactly is Dog Daycare?
Very simply Dog day care is a service that provides supervised care for dogs. Think of it like childcare for humans but tailored specifically for our four legged friends.
As an example of the benefits for your dog that you would expect at a good Daycare
- Lots of socialising with other dogs in a safe and controlled environment
- Dogs will get plenty of exercise through structured play and activities
- Receive attention and care from our trained and dog loving staff
- They will enjoy a stimulating environment designed for your dogs happiness
The Benefits of Dog Daycare in Dubai
Socialisation
One of the primary benefits of dog daycare is the ability to socialise, dogs in their very nature are social animals, and regular interaction with other dogs can help them:
- Develop better social skills
- Reduce anxiety and fear around other dogs
- Learn appropriate play behavior
- Improve their overall temperament and overall happiness
Expert day cares will carefully introduce dogs to ensure no matter their personalities they have positive social experiences.
Exercise and Mental Stimulation
Dubai’s hot climate and often busy lifestyles can make it challenging to ensure your dog gets enough exercise, especially during the summer months.
Great dog day cares offer:
· A climate controlled environment for safe play year-round
- Structured activities to keep your dog physically active
- Mental stimulation through games and interactive toys
- A way to combat obesity and related health issues
Great dog daycares like ours have indoor play areas are spacious and equipped with cooling systems, ensuring your dog stays comfortable while of course having fun.
Reduced Separation Anxiety
If your dog suffers from separation anxiety, doggy day care can be a great solution. Instead of spending long hours alone at home, your dog will be:
- Surrounded by caring staff and playmates
- Kept busy and engaged throughout the day
- Less likely to develop destructive behaviours due to boredom or anxiety
Look for a team who are experienced and trained to provide comfort and reassurance to dogs who may be anxious about being away from their owners. Ask how your dog will be introduced into their selected group of similar sized dogs.
Some will need to start with just a small friendly buddy before being introduced into their group of same sized pooches.
Professional Care and Supervision
At Zoomies, we pride ourselves on our professional and attentive care and this is one of the most important factors to review when looking for your dog minding partner.
Like our staff you need to check staff:
- Are trained in dog behaviors and body language
- Can quickly identify and address any issues
- Provide basic training reinforcement
- Ensure a safe and hygienic environment for all dogs
We maintain a low staff-to-dog ratio to ensure each pup gets the attention they deserve. This is critical not just for their safety but imagine a classroom with 50 children they just wouldn’t get the attention they need so you need to ensure it’s the same for your furry friend.
