About Us

A NEW BEGINNING

At The Dog HQ Exeter, dog care isn’t just our profession, it’s our passion. As lifelong dog lovers and proud parents to our own staffy, Sydney, taking the reins of this wonderful dog day care in Exeter has been a dream come true. We’ve given the space a fresh new name and modern updates to build upon its great foundation, all while keeping the amazing, familiar team of staff your dogs already know and love. Combined with our Regulated Level 3 Qualification in Professional Day Care and Boarding, we’re excited to bring enhanced professional standards, top-tier safety, and endless tail-wagging fun to our community. Welcome to our next chapter, we can’t wait to meet your pup!

For your Pet

DEDICATED CARE

Located conveniently on Pinhoe Road, our purpose-built facility offers the perfect blend of stimulation and relaxation for your dog. We understand that leaving your pet can be stressful, which is why we’ve created a home-away-from-home environment. We also work closely with Estuary Vets to ensure absolute safety for your pet.

Tailored services to suit your schedule and your dog’s needs.

Helping to Boost Your Dogs Well-being

Enrichment Programme

The Dog HQ Exeter is committed to providing a safe, stimulating and enriching environment that supports the physical, mental and emotional well-being of all dogs in our care.

Our enrichment programme is designed to meet each dog’s individual welfare needs by encouraging natural behaviours, promoting confidence, providing appropriate physical exercise and supporting positive social interactions.

Activities are tailored to the dogs age, breed, health, temperament, experience and individual preferences. Participation is always voluntary, and dogs are provided with appropriate opportunities for rest and relaxation throughout the day.

Positive reinforcement

Our team uses gentle, reward-based techniques to encourage good behaviour, build confidence, and ensure every dog feels safe and celebrated.

Physical Enrichment

Our customised agility setups, play structures, and open run spaces ensure your pup burns energy in a safe, healthy, and active environment.

Sensory Enrichment

We engage your dog’s natural instincts through stimulating textures, scents, and interactive sound elements that keep their minds sharp and curious.

Rest and Recovery

We balance high-energy play with designated cozy downtime, to give all dogs a peaceful space to recharge and prevent overstimulation.
