Looking for home dog day care in Gateshead that’s both reliable and tailored to your dog’s individual needs? At Chrysidis Pet Care, I provide calm, one-on-one daytime care from my own dog-friendly home – the perfect alternative to loud, crowded kennels.

Specialising in anxious and rescue dogs, I offer a personalised, low-stress environment where your dog can relax, play, and feel completely at ease while you’re away for the day.

Why Choose Home Dog Day Care?

Unlike traditional day care centres, home-based care offers a quieter, more controlled environment. That’s ideal for dogs who may not thrive in group settings or who struggle with anxiety or change. At Chrysidis Pet Care:

I only care for a small number of dogs at a time There are no crates, no loud kennels, and no overwhelming routines Dogs have the freedom to lounge, nap, and play at their own pace My own friendly Labrador, Holy, helps welcome new dogs with a calm presence

It’s more than just supervision – it’s solo, routine-based care with the same love and structure they’d get at home.

What’s Included in My Dog Day Care Service?

My dog day care in Gateshead runs from morning until early evening (flexible hours available), and includes:

✅ Supervised playtime indoors and in my secure, private yard

✅ Plenty of cuddles, companionship, and enrichment

✅ Regular updates with photos and videos

✅ Medication administration (if needed)

✅ Crate-free rest time in a cosy living-room setup
