Gentle care that keeps your dog calm, secure, and happy

Does your dog bark, whine, or become destructive when you leave the house?

They could be struggling with separation anxiety—a common and treatable issue in dogs of all ages.

At Chrysidis Pet Care in Gateshead, I offer calm, structured dog day care designed to help dogs feel safe and supported while you’re away. Here’s how day care can reduce stress and make a positive difference.

1. Routine Provides Reassurance

Dogs thrive on routine. At day care, your dog knows what to expect—meals, rest, walks, and gentle play—on a predictable schedule.

That sense of structure reduces anxiety and helps them feel in control, even without you there.

2. Prevents Loneliness and Boredom

Most dogs with separation anxiety just need company and calm stimulation.

Day care provides gentle interaction, breaks up their day, and gives them social comfort without overstimulation.

3. Gentle Exposure to Being Away from You

Regular day care builds your dog’s confidence. They learn it’s okay to be away from home—because they’re safe, cared for, and you always come back.

Many of my clients say their dogs settle faster, bark less, and seem more relaxed at home after regular day care visits.

4. One-on-One Attention Helps Nervous Dogs

Unlike busy kennels or group-based facilities, I care for just a few dogs at a time in my home.

That means:

Quiet environment No crates or loud group play Personal attention to your dog’s needs
