What Dog Owners in York Say
“My dog used to come home exhausted and stressed from the daycare facility. With UrPetPals she comes home tired and happy — completely different energy. The photo updates are brilliant too.”
“My anxious rescue was terrified of other dogs. Home daycare changed everything — 1-on-1 with a trusted carer, GPS walk every day. He's a different dog. Genuinely can't recommend this enough.”
“Been using UrPetPals for weekly daycare for 3 months now. My dog knows the routine, loves the carer, and I never worry about what's happening. The GPS updates every walk give me peace of mind.”
