We love the “postcards” we receive sending pictures about what he’s upto in his hotel stays and it’s lovely to know how much of an amazing time he has on his holidays at rags and berts (it’s also very obvious from the way he runs in…"

"Once we say shall we go to Rags & Bert's he does not leave my side! We know he is saying come on let us go! He is as excited to meet his humans there as he is to meet his friends! Once home he sleeps like a dog who has had the the Best Day Ever, every time. "

"I have been using Doggy Daycare since my dog was three months old and he absolutely loves it! I think it has been so important to socialise him with other dogs from a young age and all of the staff at Rags & Bertâ€™s are very helpful and friendly. He also stays overnight in the dog hotel on occasions which has been really useful. "
Alexandra Harris and Vincent

"“Thanks so much for the lovely photos! He looks so relaxed (which is a bonus!) We were really pleased with how smart and sweet-smelling he was when we got him back, and he wasn't traumatised at all by his very first grooming session! We'll definitely be bringing him back.”"

"My beautiful miniature cockapoo had a groom with Sophie last Friday. Sophie was so patient with Suzi who really isn’t easy to groom as she is quite nervous having experienced other not so caring groomers in the past. She looked lovely & smelt beautiful when I collect her - thank you Sophie."

"This is amazing! 🤣 It’s lovely to know he’s having such a great time, thank you for looking after him so well! Nicola"
