Cambridgeshire doggy daycare, boarding & grooming services
“Socialisation, not isolation.”
What we offer
Our services
From a day of play to a proper little holiday, Waggy’s looks after dogs of every shape, size and personality. Here’s how we can help.
Daycare
Drop your dog off for a day filled with playmates, fresh air and a good old sniff about. No isolation, no boredom, just a proper day out with new friends.
Boarding
Our boarding kennels are nothing like the ones you’ve seen in films. Cosy, comfortable, and designed with dogs in mind, we carefully socialise our boarders together, meaning safe, supervised play and companionship throughout their stay.
Grooming services
Our fully qualified groomers take care of the pampering, from a wash and brush up to the full works. Every breed, every size, every coat, welcome.
Trusted
Happy dogs
Ask any of our regulars (or their owners) and they’ll tell you the same thing. Waggy’s isn’t just somewhere dogs go. It’s somewhere they genuinely can’t wait to get back to.
“Our boys love going to Waggys and always get very excited when they get dropped off.”

Social media
Daily Pupdates
Peace of mind comes as standard. Our Daily Pupdates on social media let you check in on your dog’s adventures, so you can relax knowing they’re happy, settled, and having a ball.
why we do it
About us
Waggy’s started with one simple idea: dogs need company, not confinement. Everything we do is built around that belief. At our centre near Great Abington, every dog has the chance to play, explore, and enjoy safe, supervised socialisation, whether they’re popping in for the day or staying with us overnight.
Being Social
Eligibility
The most important thing we look for is a dog that’s “comfortable in the company” of other dogs. Every dog socialises differently – some are playful, some like to potter at their own pace, and others are content to sit back and watch, but at Waggy’s we cater for them all.

Dedicated
Why choose us?
We’re not your typical kennels. Here’s what makes Waggy’s different.
Real socialisation
Our dogs socialise together in supervised groups, sorted by size and energy levels, rather than being kept apart in isolation. It’s the heart of everything we do.
Licensed & insured
We hold a 5-star licence rating, the highest a dog boarding and daycare centre can achieve, so you can relax knowing your dog is in properly qualified hands.
Daily pupdates
No wondering how your dog’s day is going. We share photos and updates so you can see the tail wags for yourself.

Questions?
FAQs
We know you’ll have questions, and our FAQs should cover most of them. But reach out to our friendly team if you’d like to know more.
What areas do you cover?
We’re based in Great Abington, just outside Cambridge, with easy access from the A11, A505, A1307 and M11. We welcome dogs from across Cambridgeshire and beyond.
Does my dog need to be vaccinated?
Yes – we require all dogs to be up to date with both standard vaccinations and kennel cough, which must be administered at least 5 days before arrival as it is a live vaccine. Please see our Terms and Conditions for more information.
How do I know if my dog is sociable?
Sociability is varied, and can look different in each dog. We’ve provided a run down on how we judge sociability, along with other FAQ’s. Please read our eligibility page for more information.
How do I book in?
We use an online booking system for all requests; read our booking guide on how to access your account and book in.
