Where your dog finds a second home in a safe, fun, and loving forest environment.
Explore Our ServicesAt Pawsome Play, we believe that every dog deserves a unique, forest-themed escape. Situated right next to the iconic Sherwood Forest, we are a family-run business dedicated to offering a fun-packed experience in a safe and loving environment.
As a family of passionate dog lovers, we provide personalized care by welcoming your pet directly into our home. Think of us less as a boarding facility, and more as a second family for your dog, committed to their happiness and treating them as one of our own.
From short stays to extended adventures, we've got you covered.
Our overnight boarding provides a true home-from-home experience for your dog. They'll enjoy supervised play, regular walks in our private woodland, and all the comforts of a loving home.
Learn MoreGive your pup a day of adventure! Our day care service includes structured play, mental stimulation, and plenty of social interaction in our expansive, fully-fenced woodland area.
Learn MoreForget boring kennels! When your dog boards with us, they're embarking on a fun-filled holiday of their own. We mix the comforts of home with the thrill of the great outdoors.
Your dog becomes part of our family, with full access to our entire house. They have complete freedom of where to sleep: in a crate, on the sofa, in a cozy bed, or anywhere else they find comfortable!
This isn't just a walk in the park! Our guests enjoy hours of supervised play, sniffing, and exploring in our secure, multi-acre private woodland. It's a sensory paradise for every dog!
We get to know your dog's unique personality and needs. You'll receive regular photo and video "pupdates" so you can see all the fun your best friend is having while you're away.
Banish boredom and say goodbye to lonely days at home! Our doggy day care is a whirlwind of tail-wagging fun, friendship, and expert care, designed to send your pup home happy and tired.
We match playmates by size and temperament for safe, positive romps. From chasing balls to friendly games of tag, it's a social club where your dog is the star guest.
Even the most energetic pups need a break. We have scheduled downtime in our comfy relaxation zones where dogs can nap, get cuddles from our family, or just watch the world go by.
Your dog's safety is our top priority. Our entire woodland play area is securely fenced, and I am trained in numerous canine skills, ensuring a safe and positive experience for everyone under our family's loving supervision.
