Since 2013, Cuddles-A -Plenty has been established as a home based pet sitting service. In 2016, we expanded into a doggy daycare centre and it is a dream come true!

We still maintain those home values and services, only now we also have a retail shop offering natural healthy goodies and lots of room for dogs to play in our new day care centre. The centre has different play areas so dogs can remain in their favourite friendship groups without feeling under pressure to mix with all the different dogs. Puppies have their own dedicated area.


Who We Are

An introduction from the founder – Mrs Dionne Bacon

We are a family run business who have a lifelong love of animals and lots of experience looking after a variety of our furry friends.

Over the years, our family has included many loved ones, from the smallest (tropical fish) to the largest (horse) with all sorts in-between – Hamsters, Guinea Pigs, Rabbits, Chinchillas, Cats, a Gecko, a Pony & of course, Dogs!

Regular bookings are welcome as are bookings on a more ad hoc basis.
