ALL ABOUT THE DAWG HOUSE
The dawg house was started in May 2019.I already had my dog bruce who attended paws and away daycare. One day while sat in the office at work i got word about the business being put up for sale and knew i had to take the risk. The next day i signed the papers and became the proud owner of the dawg house. Alongside me was Becks my manager and best friend for over 25 years, together we blindly began to build an amazing dream. Through the years we have survived covid, kennel cough outbreaks and a few trials and errors. The dawg house is now a very successful 5star rated business with dog numbers at an all time high, a team of 5 girls (myself, Becks, Rebecca, Leah and Lauren) that work as hard as they can, and we are in the process of opening up our 2nd location. I work 7 days a week with boarding and daycare taking up 99.9% of my time. Luckily I have an amazing partner at home and my 2 pooches Bruce and Belles. Without them and my girls it would not all be possible.
