Our dog loves her days here. Our favourite thing is all the dogs mixing - all sizes and shapes learning to get along and appreciate the others difference.… More It is also close to Etchingham station and is open for hours that suit our work pattern. Her favourite thing is racing all the other dogs to find the treats and sitting on wood chip piles. Her doggy heaven
Cannot praise Wag'n'Tails more highly. Our boy Barley has absolutely loved his visits, and literally races from the car to the gate upon arrival… More each time he goes. From the pupday celebrations (birthdays!) with pupcakes, to the hilariously narrated videos that get sent throughout the day when he is there, it's clear Michelle and Paul truly love what they do and love every dog that comes to their daycare. An absolute must for any local dog owner looking for a place for their dog to have a proper day out with other doggie pals!!
My cocker spaniel puppy absolutely loves going to Wag'n'Tails at least twice a week. This is what she'd say if she could write her own review:… More 'I have such fun when I go to see all my friends at Wag'n'Tails, and I jump around with excitement in the car when I know that's where we're going in the morning. The youngest puppies have made a little gang and we play together all the time. There are things to jump on and climb on, paddling pools to splash around in, lots and lots of space to run around (indoors and out) and lots of cuddles with the humans, Michelle and Paul. I love them both to bits and I think they love me too. They take great care of all of us, including making sure the younger ones have lots of downtime, but they make sure we mind our manners too: I'm much better at not barging through doors and gates than I used to be, for example - sometimes I even remember to sit before I go through! I'm much braver when we meet other dogs out on our walks now, and I'm so pleased that my mum found Wag'n'Tails - she couldn't have chosen a better place for me.'
An absolutely fantastic doggy daycare that we would wholeheartedly recommend! The facilities are brilliant, there is a large amount of indoor and outdoor… More space and the dogs have so much fun! Michelle and Paul are so friendly, helpful and superb at what they do! They keep the dogs stimulated and having fun and they also keep you updated with videos and photos. Our dog struggled with not being well socialised and with some behavioural issues including nerves on being away from I Michelle and Paul have worked with our dog to make her comfortable and to help train her and help her settle. The difference has been enormous. Thanks both!
What a find! Michelle and Paul are just phenomenal. They take such amazing care of our lab Edie, we wouldn't send her anywhere else. They are both… More so knowledgeable and treat the dogs like their own. Edie is stimulated all day long and is exhausted at the end of the day. They have superb facilities and always go above and beyond for your dog. Edie bounds in, every time she goes to Wag 'n' Tails. Send your dogs there...they will love you for it!
Brilliant doggy day care! Our dog Toby has been going to Wag ‘n’ Tails once a week for about a year and it’s been great for his socialisation as well as… More a lot of fun for him! Michelle and Paul are great and clearly dedicated to providing the best possible care for the dogs. The facilities are fantastic; the dogs have loads of space to run around and play. We love the video and photo updates throughout the day, and it’s great when he comes home tired and sleeps all evening! Couldn’t ask for more from a doggy day care, we’re very lucky to have this near us!
Teddy started going to Wag'n'Tails at 5 months old for half a day each week. The expertise and professionalism shown by Michelle and Paul is… More wonderful and I felt completely comfortable leaving our Teddy girl in their care. She has now graduated to 1 day per week and literally drags me up the path to get there. She not only has great fun but has become well socialised and the games played have increased her mental and physical agility.
This is a fantastic place for owners and dogs - I would highly recommend.
What a wonderful place and lovely people! Lots of space and stimulation for the dogs, great supervision and interactive play too. Fab to get the little… More updates during the day. Toby always come home tired but very happy. And when we get there in the morning pulls me down the path he’s so excited to be back! Thank you so much for giving him such fabulous care and happy times.
Olive just loves going to Wag’n’Tails. Paul and Michelle have built a wonderful safe environment for all the dogs to enjoy. It is amazing to see how… More they all get in so well and it has certainly helped our young pup know how to be friendly with all dogs she comes across. And as a little add on it’s just brilliant to have one night a week where she is happy just to curl up and cuddle rather than have us join in her games 😂😂. Thanks Wag’n’Tails xx
Michelle & Paul are fantastic! Our pup, Luna, has been going to Wag n Tails since she was just a few months old and she absolutely loves it. It’s hard… More to tear her away! The updates throughout the day are fabulous, so reassuring to see her enjoying herself whilst we’re busy working. Thanks both for loving her like she’s your own! J & M
Michelle and Paul are amazing, our dog can’t wait to get there and often doesn’t want to leave! They are all about the dogs…..the dogs come first!! We… More have seen a marked improvement in our dog’s behaviour all down to the work Michelle and Paul have put in. Thanks guys you are great.
hello, my name is monty bo jangles and i love it when my mummy and daddy take me to meet with my friends at wag'n'tails - i have plenty of space… More to run, roll and play games with my chums, and when i get a little tired michelle and paul give us a well deserved down time where we can all relax and get ready for the next adventure... i really love it here and even though i'm pooped when i finally get home, i can't wait until i can come back and do it all again... thank you michelle and paul, you are two of my besties and i love you very much x
Michelle and Paul are great! They clearly love the pups and dogs they care for. An excellent mix of training, discipline and cuddles! Highly recommended,… More thanks, Emma, Jason and of course Brecon ❤️
What can I say about Wag'nTails that hasn't already been said?! Michelle and Paul have put their hearts and souls into creating this little slice… More of doggy day care heaven. 😍 Our dog Buddy...aka Biggie B...just adores going there and has so many friends. We love receiving the daily videos and photos, it makes us feel part of his day and we can see just how much fun he's having and how much Michelle and Paul love their doggos. We cannot recommend them highly enough. 10 out of 10. 🤩
Our lab Walter has been going to Wag n Tails for a few months now and he absolutely loves it. Paul and Michelle are amazing with him. They take so much… More care to get to know all the dogs so well and their facilities are incredible. It’s so helpful to have him looked after so well (with all his pals) twice a week whilst we have to go to the office, and the location is great, close to the train station for easy London access. We don’t know what we would do without them now, if you’re thinking about doggy daycare, get in touch with Wag n Tails!
Wagntails the doggy daycare your dog would choose!
My daxie can’t wait to get there. She howls when we get to the drive and pulls me up the path.
From… More day one, I’ve been happy leaving her with Michelle and Paul. The dogs get nothing but care and attention all day, as an owner I get videos and pictures of my dogs day which always being a smile to my face.
She even had a birthday party. She comes home exhausted and happy.
Totally a 10 star facility!
We feel very fortunate to have Wag’n’Tails so close to us, it is amazing and your dog will love it! Elvis, our miniature dachshund, has been going to Wag’n’Tails… More a couple of days a week since he was a 3 month old puppy. He has absolutely loved it since the beginning and it has been wonderful for his socialisation, behaviour and confidence. Michelle and Paul are fantastic with all the dogs, caring, knowledgeable and professional. The facilities are wonderful and Elvis is so excited when he arrives, he can’t wait to get through the gates! A very big thank you to Michelle and Paul for making a little dog with a big character so happy, and us too.
I cannot rate Wag’n’Tails highly enough!Stanley, my one year old dachshund loves his Wag’n’Tails days, he has an absolute blast with his K9 friends.Michelle… More and Paul are obviously deeply fond of the dogs in their care, Stanley is treated like family!I feel absolutely confident I’m leaving him in a loving, safe and fun environment.
Our dogs have been completely transformed at this amazing place! Michelle and Paul are absolutely amazing with the dogs and give them a massive amount… More of love, attention and stimulation! Our pups have been going there for just a few weeks now and the change in them is huge! They have gone from being extremely nervous and not wanting to socialise with other dogs to being two confident pups who play happily with other dogs and cannot wait for their day at Wag 'n' Tails to start. Even though I have moved 30 mins further away from when I started taking them there, I am happy to make the extra journey time as I can't imagine our pups would be happy anywhere else! If you are living in or moving to East Sussex, I would strongly recommend Wag 'n' Tails. Thank you Michelle & Paul as we never thought that we would see our pups so much transformed for the better!
Incredible place for your dogs to be cared for, have safe fun and make new friends. Michelle & Paul are amazing with all the dogs and the compound… More and grounds they have built is superb.
This is the most amazing doggy day care! Michelle and Paul are such kind and genuine people, Douggie absolutely loves them. The facilities are fantastic… More and is always very clean and well kept. Douggie started going around a month ago when he was 15 weeks old and he has come such a long way with his confidence already. I know he is taken great care of and as he’s still a puppy, Michelle and Paul always ensure he has regular downtime throughout the day. The regular photo and video updates are lovely and I always love seeing the doggy antics!
Send your dogs here - they will adore you for it! We feel incredibly lucky to have found such an amazing Doggy Daycare. Wilfried (Wilfie) absolutely loves… More going - his whole body wiggles when we drop him off. Michelle and Paul are both super loving with all the dogs and send us regular WhatsApp videos, photos and updates throughout the day - their commentary is hilarious and makes us laugh out loud and smile. It is worth taking Wilfie just for those videos! I've shown many of our friends and colleagues the videos of Wilfie and told them stories of how well the dogs are treated - some are keen to move from London to be able to take their own dogs! Wilfie has lots of friends of all shapes, sizes and breeds and it's great to see all of them getting on so well. Wilfie has been going a couple of days a week for 6 months, since he was 3 months old, and he is a really well behaved puppy as a result - we are often complimented on how well behaved and chilled out he is for a Beagle (they're not a breed known for their good behaviour haha!). We put it COMPLETELY down to Michelle, Paul and their well thought through and safe setup of Wag'n'Tails- he is safely able to run around and get rid of lots of energy, play games and interact with other dogs and puppies. He is safe, well loved and stimulated. Michelle makes sure he gets his rest - often massaging his ears until he falls asleep haha. We are so grateful to have them ❤
There is nothing about Wag'n'Tails that isn't fantastic! Michelle and Paul provide an extremely personal service, taking the time and effort… More to get to know each dog as an individual and tailor games and down-time accordingly. They are experts in canine wellbeing and behaviour and are able to spot things that might need extra care and attention. We started sending Monty when he was 18 months old and he has come on leaps and bounds - Michelle even achieved the impossible and got him to return a ball on command! It's so reassuring to know our pup is getting thorough exercise and attention when our busy schedules mean we can't provide that every day. The regular updates and pictures of play are really cute! We cannot recommend Michelle and Paul and their doggy day care highly enough - Monty has a whale of a time there and would love to meet more new friends to play with!
Quite simply amazing and the best daycare we could have ever hoped for for our Ruby. We first sent Ruby for her 2 hour introduction session in October… More as an energetic 5 month old cockapoo. Ruby is now a super confident and playful 8 month old who cannot wait to get to daycare. She runs up the path to greet Michelle, Paul and all her furry friends. Michelle and Paul are just fantastic with each and every dog in their care. They never fail to impress us with not only their knowledge but also how much they love each dog. The indoor and outdoor facilities are incredible. The dogs are always supervised, play lots of games and have endless fun with each other. We get regular videos and photos each day that Ruby is there and she just loves it. We cannot recommend Wag'n'Tails enough.
My cocker spaniel has been coming here for a few months now and absolutely loves it!! He runs to the gate once out the car he just can’t wait to get in.… More Paul and Michelle are brilliant, they spend all day with the dogs and have made a great daycare centre with lots of attractions for the dogs to play on such as tunnels and a low trampoline!! I can’t recommend wagntails enough the best place to leave your dog for an action packed day they will love ❤️
Fantastic doggy daycare, would highly recommend. Wonderful staff and facilities, purpose built indoor area, which is huge and a massive outdoor area for… More lots of outdoor fun and games. Our dog never wants to leave!
Wilfried absolutely loves it at Wag'n'Tails! The facilities are second to none and we are always greeted with a hearty hello even when its a… More 6.30am drop off. Paul and Michelle treat all of the dogs so well and we appreciate the regular whatsapp updates they send. In addition to all of the fun Wilfried is taught new skills which we really notice in his behaviour when he returns home ready for his rest!
Simply the best!Michelle and Paul give all the dogs the best loving care and attention.The dogs have the best time, they love spending their days at Wag… More ‘n Tails.They have the best site and facilities. Definitely 5 Star.
Michelle and Paul are amazing in looking after all their visitors as if they are their own; very friendly and flexible. Our 2 year + old rescue/rehome… More Retriever X ‘H’ went to Wag n Tails following a friend’s recommendation, having got him only weeks before lockdown and missing out socially on being a dog. The outdoor and indoor facilities are superb, the best we’ve seen in all our dog owning years. Michelle and Paul are with the dogs supervising 100% of the time making sure each dog/ pup is fine; taking care of individual experience and wellbeing, with stimulating interactive games, play and some down time. Plus they send you update pictures/videos of the day’s action.For us they suggested for ‘H’ an excellent way forward having had an introduction session. They understood his initial need for a quiet gentle familiarisation with the new experience; he now absolutely loves going there. We know that he’s getting the best love, care and having great time. We believe the best doggy daycare / playskool in the area.
We are so pleased we were recommended Wag’n’Tails day care for Raya. It is an amazing place! Michelle and Paul provide superb facilities both inside and… More out where the dogs can play safely. Michelle and Paul enjoy caring for the dogs and provide lots of stimulating activities. We love seeing the photos and video updates they send. Nothing is too much trouble for Paul and Michelle. They know and understand all the dogs in their care. We only have to say to Raya “ shall we go see Paul and Michelle and play” and she is excited and eager to go! We would recommend Wag’n’tails 100%
Wag’n’Tails is simple amazing. Michelle & Paul’s care and attention to the dogs is outstanding; you can tell they love all the dogs as their own. Our… More dog Dashy cannot wait to get out of the car when we get there and comes home the most contented little doggy in the world. I am so grateful we have found you…. And so is Dashy! X
If I could rate any higher than a five I would!What Michelle and Paul have built here is a dream come true not just for the dogs, but for us owners as… More well.We have a super excitable 10 month old Weimaraner who just adores other dogs so much he becomes a bit of a whirlwind and can sometimes put the other dogs off him. We were slightly apprehensive whether or not day care would be the right thing for him, but the time and effort Michelle and Paul put into controlling his interactions makes this so much more than your average daycare where the dogs just run and run until they are exhausted. (Don't get me wrong, he's still out for the count when he gets home!)We get constant updates through the day, so you know they're in great hands.Would recommend this to others without hesitation and I know Cooper would too!
Fantastic doggy daycare! Jasper loves going here every week. We are so impressed with the facilities and how much care and dedication is shown towards… More the dogs. Michelle and Paul are extremely friendly, professional and know exactly what Jasper needs. It's lovely to get regular updates and we are extremely lucky to have found such wonderful day care for our dog nearby!
Michelle and Paul who opened Wag’n’Tails are life savers. You don’t realise how fantastic this doggy day care home is until you have tried it. I call it… More home because they treat Stanley as one of their own. The constant updates and photos are well above and beyond the call of duty. What I appreciate the most is that Stanley absolutely loves going, when dropped off he doesn’t even look back. They make sure he’s safe, happy and if needed washed when we collect. Once he’s home and fed, he is totally out for the count. If Stanley could talk, he would say – “Adios Amigos, I’ve had a hard day playing, I’m off to bed, good night, see you in the morning”.
When I drop my dog Rue off at Wag'n'Tails in the morning I know she is in the absolute best of hands, Michelle and Paul are truly brilliant-… More they treat the dogs like their own and give regular updates on how they are doing throughout the day which is lovely! They have created an excellent, stimulating environment for the dogs.. Rue comes home exhausted from all the fun she has had, and can't wait to go back to go back for more in the mornings! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a safe, loving and fun daycare for their dogs.
Where do I start! This place is the Disneyland for dogs. We took our Bella last week and she absolutely loved it there where she had so much fun with plenty… More of activities within a secure field (so much space inside and out).We was met by the owner and from the off they where so professional and knowledgable, we had no fear leaving our Bella with them.I cannot recommend this place enough Bella will definitely be a regular (weekly).Such a great set-up with such caring dog lovers. 🙌.
My pup Paddy went to Wag n Tails when it first opened in September, Michelle and Paul could not have been more welcoming and Paddy absolutely loved going… More there. I had no doubts that he was getting the best love and care and having the best time ever when he was there. I have recently moved away from the area so unfortunately I have had to find somewhere new for my pup to go whilst I am at work (which is no where near at the same high standard as Wag n Tails) and my only regret about moving has been that neither myself or Paddy will be seeing Michelle and Paul regularly but I do plan to visit on occasions. Best doggy daycare ever.
Michelle and Paul are absolutely amazing! They truly care and treat your dog like it’s their own. All the dogs and pups are stimulated and taken care of… More to consider their experience and wellbeing. The facilities and land are amazing and just what you want for your dog. Belle loves going and is extremely worn out by all the fun she has each day! 💜
