Doggie Profile - Tilly
Welcome to another doggy profile where we shine the spotlight on the wonderful dogs and their humans who make Rags & Bert’s such a special place. This week, we’re introducing you to Tilly – a four-year-old Cockapoo who has been part of the Rags & Bert’s family since she was a puppy.
A Little About Tilly
Tilly has been with her family since day one, and in her four years she has developed a personality that can be summed up in three words: friendly, cuddly, and diva! She’s full of love and energy, but she certainly knows how to get the attention she deserves (especially when it comes to staff cuddles).
Life at Rags & Bert’s
Tilly has made the most of everything we offer – Daycare, Grooming, and the Dog Hotel. She first joined us during Covid, when her owners wanted her to have the chance to play and socialise with other dogs. She thrived in our Play & Stay sessions and has been a regular ever since.
Her family has always found the drop-off and pick-up process smooth and supportive, with staff going above and beyond to help – even stepping in to bring Tilly home during a tricky time when the “dog bus” wasn’t available.
At Doggy Daycare, Tilly couldn’t be happier. She gets excited as soon as she arrives, throws herself into playing with her friends, and then heads home ready for a well-earned nap. Over time she’s gained confidence with all sorts of breeds – and now has a particular fondness for Dobermans, thanks to her fascination with one of our regulars, Dave!
Grooming & Hotel Adventures
When it comes to grooming, Tilly isn’t always a fan of the scissors, but our groomers know just how to help her feel at ease – taking breaks and giving her time so the experience is as stress-free as possible. Despite her diva tendencies, she always loved spending time with the team.
Tilly has also stayed at our Dog Hotel, where she settled in quickly thanks to her familiarity with both staff and other dogs from daycare. Her family particularly appreciated the updates and photos that gave them peace of mind while she was away.
Tilly’s Favourite Things
Tilly’s love of staff cuddles is legendary – she’ll happily demand attention from everyone, though she may have a few favourites she saves her biggest tail wags for! She’s also known to have a “doggie boyfriend” she enjoys following around when she’s not busy getting human snuggles.
Final Thoughts
For Tilly and her family, Rags & Bert’s has become like a second home:
“We love that there are always plenty of dogs and staff for Tilly to play with. The team really do go above and beyond.”
Team Reflections
Our team love having Tilly with us and shared their own thoughts:
“Tilly is a sweet girl, loves cuddles and is friendly will every human and dog she meets which is why she makes a great therapy dog. She's honestly amazing, such a pleasure to look after. We all say we'd take her home if we could!"
We’re so happy to have Tilly as part of our pack – she brings joy, cuddles, and plenty of diva charm to our days. 💛
