Dog People

We know every dog is unique. Our free Intro Session helps us tailor our services just for your furry friend. Come see why personalised care makes all the difference.

Where every tail wags with joy!

Pawsitively Tailored Services

£27-£40

At our Half Daycare, we offer a balanced mix of enrichment, walks, and 1;1 training. Your dog will enjoy both mental and physical activities, including problem-solving games, creative puzzles, and sensory experiences; all designed to boost their confidence and overall wellbeing.

At our Full Daycare, your pup will enjoy all of the above, plus tailored desensitisation exercises, additional enrichment, and dedicated rest periods to support healthy recovery and relaxation.

These services operate on working days only; Sundays and bank holidays are excluded.

Home Doggy Day Care

£50 per night

Our home boarding provides a relaxed, home-from-home setting where your dog is welcomed as part of the family. We follow a natural, structured routine alongside our own dogs, ensuring your pup feels settled, secure, and well cared for throughout their stay. Every dog receives individual attention, and we’re happy to tailor their experience to suit their specific needs and habits.

Throughout the day, your dog will be included in our daycare activities; offering plenty of opportunities to socialise, explore, and enjoy both mental and physical stimulation.

Boarding is available seven days a week; an additional charge applies on bank holidays.

Cozy Home Boarding

Morning Country Walk

£22

Our Morning Country Walk is the perfect group adventure for your pup to socialise, run freely, and explore the countryside in a safe and structured environment. Along the way, we incorporate gentle training through impulse control games and recall exercises; helping to build focus and good manners while still having plenty of fun.

Each walk lasts one hour and runs within our 10am to 12pm time slot, Monday to Friday.

Available in the Salisbury area only.

(Discounts may be available depending on behaviour and booking regularity.)

From £30

With Issy, our lovely daycare assistant, we offer a dedicated evening dog sitting service; perfect for pups who are happiest staying in the comfort of their own home and would benefit from some company.

Issy will care for your dog in their familiar environment, providing attentive, one-to-one support and ensuring they feel safe, relaxed, and well looked after throughout the evening.

Pricing is determined on a case-by-case basis, depending on your pup, the duration, and location. Limited availability applies.

Evening Dog Sitting

£50 Consultation + personalised plan

Kickstarting with a 45-minute consultation to understand your dog's quirks and gather all the details. We'll create a personalised plan - your pup's roadmap to success!

But hey, our goal isn't just to fix things – it's to strengthen the bond between you and your furry family member. We're here to make tails wag and hearts sing!

Behavioural Consultation

Before diving into the fun of Dog Day Care and Home Boarding, we offer a complimentary 2-hour intro session. This allows us to ensure everything is a perfect fit and your pup feels right at home with us.

About Dog People

Meet Ella


Hi there! I’m Antonella, but you can call me Ella, and I'm a Dog Person!

My love for dogs started at a young age in Italy, where I was born and raised. My dad had a big heart for animals and would often rescue stray dogs, bringing them home so we could care for them and find them new homes.

Ten years ago, I moved to London, bringing my love for dogs with me. Over the past six years, I've worked professionally with dogs in various roles, including handler, daycare manager, trainer, and assisting outstanding behaviourists.

Recently, I moved to Salisbury and I'm excited to share my knowledge and passion with the local community. I'm certified by the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers (IMDT) and trained in Animal First Aid. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment for your dogs, whether for daycare, training, or boarding.

I can't wait to meet you and your furry friends!

Meet Maya


Hi, I’m Maya, I’m a Whippet and I’m the official coordinator here. I make sure everything is up to standard!

One thing you should know about me is that I never settle for anything that isn’t perfectly soft, so I specialise in bed testing!

I can’t wait to make new friends!

Dog People is licensed by Wiltshire Council to provide Home Boarding for up to 6 dogs (LC202409-123547).

Our Testimonials

  • Honestly - the best ever! We leave our baby knowing how loved she will be while we are away. Ella is so incredible and warm and we are completely at peace knowing our pup is safe!

    Ashley

  • Dog people - pet services is an absolutely amazing small business! Ella has done such a wonderful job of caring for my dog, she is warm, loving and is really knowledgable which puts my mind at ease. I know when I drop Loki off he’s in very good hands. He’s always happy to go off on his little holiday and I’m always happy that he’ll be treated like one of the family. I trust dog people - pet services with my precious pooch and I would recommend them to anyone.

    Gemma & Loki

  • Ella is the most fantastic dog sitter for our pup Alfie. She caters for all his needs and ensures he has a similar routine to what he has at home. He always looks so happy in all the updates Ella provides when he is there. Could not recommend enough!

    Lucy & Alfie

  • Our boy loves Ella & loves his summer holiday with her. We love the updates we get of our boy being treated like a prince. Trust is so important when you handover your furry one and our trust with Ella is implicit especially as our boy is an epileptic. Highly recommend

    Lisa

  • Professional and very caring. My dogs adore going and come home very happy. They even come back better behaved! I couldn't reecommend Ella and Dog People more. We are very lucky to have found her.
