Hugo has been at Oxford pet whisperers since he was 3/4 months old. He goes generally twice a week and is so excited when he notices where we are going. He absolutely loves it and comes back so tired. It has been amazing for his socialising and training and he’s made lot of little friends. Every single staff member/trainer is so lovely and genuinely care about your fur baby and I couldn’t ask for a better daycare for him. Absolutely outstanding place. Less

I have a 1 year old working cocker spaniel who goes to OPW at least once a week and has recently started using their doggie hotel. He loves it! He is so excited when we get to daycare and I love that the drop off/pick up timings are 07:30-18:00 so it’s realistic for people who work full time! I don’t have any issues with booking extra days either which is a relief as my availability can be unpredictable. Also the staff are so friendly and kind! I wasn’t sure at first so we spent the 1st year going to a small home-based daycare elsewhere. I wish we had gone here first! Less

Amazing!!! our dog loves coming here and we love knowing she’s enjoying herself. The regular updates and photos as well as instagram are great!!! Highly recommended!! Less

Rudy so enjoys his time with his friends and carers at Pet Whisperers. A great bath was had at the end of Rudy's stay - he smelt delicious and was so soft to touch - great job as always. Less

Our corgi has been going here for a few weeks now and he always has a great time. OPW take such good care of him and he comes home exhausted, a tired dog is a happy dog! Less

Oxford Pet Whisperers are just amazing! Their care and attention to detail, their social media presence and their love for dogs is unmatched. Would highly recommend them to any dog owners, especially puppy owners for their puppy pack! Less

Peggy loves day care and also staying with Oxford Pet Whisperers. She has lots of fun and never looks back when we drop her off. We would recommend OPW to anyone who wants their dog to stay or go along to day care. Less

Rudy absolutely loves Pet Whisperers, both single ‘school days’ and ‘hotel breaks’. Love the updates we get from the team whilst he is ‘at school’. Highly recommend! Less

Wonderful caring staff, plenty of enrichment activities, consistent behaviour policy, lovely clean and spacious premises. Teddy attends Oxford Pet Whisperers (OPW) regularly on my work days, but we have also used the daycare in times of need such as family illness and funerals. I am extremely grateful that OPW have been there for us. We rehomed Teddy at 8 months’ old. He is anxious and was nervous in the company of other dogs. At OPW he mixes with other well behaved dogs in a controlled environment and is happy and relaxed there. He adores the staff and shadows them just as he does at home with me. Teddy gets excited as we approach the daycare centre and can’t wait to go in. This combined with the Instagram videos is very reassuring for us, knowing he is in good hands. Less

Could not recommend this place more!!! The staff are so professional but love all the dogs like their own. My boy has been going to them since he was just 16 weeks old and he is now 6! I would not trust anyone else more! 🐶 photos of his first day to now 🥹😍 Less

Rudy had a fabulous stay at Pet Whisperers hotel for 11 nights. We had regular updates, videos and pictures of our Boy, all were really appreciated! We could relax knowing that our boy was well looked after and constantly stimulated during the day, tired and comfortable during the night. We would recommend Pet Whisperers to take care of your four legged family member while you are on holiday. Less

Oxford Pet Whisperers are an exceptional team of caring and dedicated professionals whom I completely trust with our puppy. The heartwarming videos they share on Instagram always brighten my day, showing all the happy dogs playing and enjoying themselves. They provide a wide range of activities and enrichment experiences, and you can even book additional services like baths, tail trims, and full grooming. Amber absolutely loves her time with them and has grown so much more confident since she started attending. I would highly recommend Oxford Pet Whisperers to anyone looking to enhance their puppy’s socialisation. Or to anyone needing day care facilities due to work schedules. Less

once again Oxford pet whisperer have outdone themselves my little baby Frenchie had the time of his life actually came back with some extra manners. They also managed to squeeze me in a short note as I had to go away thank you very much for everything you’ve done. Less

Percy and Dougal had a lovely stay. Every time I looked at the Instagram videos I saw they were having such fun. We've booked them in for a further 3 hotel stays this year Less

My Airedale Molly has been going to OPW since she was a tiny pup. She started at their puppy sessions, and quickly I realised how much she loved being there! Molly now attends regularly and also OPW is there for when we need overnight stays. Molly is always ecstatic to go in and happy to see me on my return. I feel happy and confident that Molly is having the best time with their caring staff, and is kept stimulated and safe, whilst being able to socialise with other dogs. I could not be without OPW’s services and care for my dog. A huge thank you! The best care I could ask for for my darling girl. Less

Penny has been with OPW since June this year for one day a week and she absolutely adores it! She is growing in confidence and her behaviour is improving around other dogs and she has also stopped barking to initiate play! She drags us in so she can rush off and see the whisperers and her other doggy friends and when we collect her she has obviously had a great day and is nicely shattered. I have to go into the office more often now so without hesitation we are increasing Penny's day care - and we will be using the hotel next year - I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable leaving her with anyone else! Less

Ruby has just had her 1st overnight stay at OPW and loved it. She has been a regular at daycare for about 3 years and we are happy and confident that she is well cared for and Ruby is always very keen to be at daycare. The overnight stay went well and Ruby came home her usual happy self. OPW staff are always pleased to see Ruby their videos and updates are fun to watch and reassuring that she is having the best time We would not hesitate to use the hotel again and we are for a short break in June. OPW are professional, fun, caring and most of all Ruby is happy there which gives us peace of mind. Thank you. Less

Our golden retriever Ella is a regular daycare visitor and this year we tried the doggy hotel facilities for the first time. It gave us peace of mind as we knew she will be comfortable knowing all staff and environment, and she absolutely loved it, I don't think she was very impressed when we turned up to pick her up 5 days later, she wanted to carry on with the fun! We had a couple of updates on how she is getting on which was lovely to have. And you can see what your pup is up to during the days on Instagram account. Would definitely recommend this over regular kennels! Less

Thank you for looking after our dog (human 😉) so very well whilst we were on holiday. She really enjoyed her stay and OPW took all of her needs into consideration, to ensure that she had a happy holiday too. They sent regular updates and photos to us too, which we enjoyed receiving. We would definitely recommend OPW for both Daycare and Boarding and will book again in the future - thank you 🐾 🥰 Less

My 8 month old puppy, Mabel, has been going to OPW since she was 3-4 months old and absolutely loves it. After initially trying a different daycare, where Mabel came home over stimulated and stressed, I tried OPW and was very happy to see Mabel come home suitably tired and relaxed. They have kept me updated with any issues they have seen with Mabel as she has gotten older and what training they were doing to try and resolve them while at daycare, as well as giving feedback on improvements they saw after I focused on these training areas at home with her. Mabel is very keen to get into daycare in the morning and I get a sleepy and content dog back at the end of the day. Less

OPW is the most lovely and fun place! My Romanian Rescue dog needed help socialising and I was recommended OPW. She now absolutely loves playing and meeting other doggies. They have helped build her confidence as well as my own. Couldn’t recommend them enough if you want a sleepy and happy pup! Less

Our gorgeous dog absolutely loves his day at OPW - it really is the highlight of his week! He's been going for three years, and thanks to the incredible staff he has steadily grown in confidence around other dogs, which not only makes his time at daycare more enjoyable, but also means he is happy to interact with other dogs when out and about with us too. You'd never know that he is a velcro dog when he disappears through the doggy door without giving us a second glance - I think he loves the humans there even more than the other pups! Less

Our Corgi girl Mooncake has been attending the daycare at least once a week for about 18months and she absolutely loves it. This summer we tried the hotel service for the first time as we went away for a four-day business trip. We are aways very nervous about leaving our baby girl behind; but they have a very friendly and professional team who always takes good care of her. She enjoyed her hotel stay and it is definitely a service that we will repeatedly use in the future. We are very grateful to have found a nursery that we can trust! Less

My dog has been attending once a week for a couple of months now. I was a little hesitant at first, with the lack of a phone number and all communication being done through a portal, but my boy Oreo adores this place. His tails wagging from the moment we pull up outside, and he can't wait to get in, barely glances back at me. I've also notices his recall is improved, and he's knackered at the end of the day. They have an Instagram page so you can keep an eye on what the dogs are up to, which is really nice, but don't necessarily expect lots of pictures of your dog, it gives me an idea of what is going on, but I don't see my pup all that often. Less

Our Cocker spaniel Lyra really loves it here, nearly takes my arm off to get in on her regular day care sessions. Also brilliant for holiday stays, the idea that she gets to play with all her friends during the day rather than being in a kennel is just fantastic and means, although we miss her, we know she is having a fantastic time. Couldn’t recommend them more. Less

My dog got her groom done at Oxford Pet Whisperers and they did a fantastic job! I am really happy with the cut. The staff were also super friendly and Nellie seemed really happy when I picked her up, not stressed at all. 10/10 would definitely recommend their services. Less

Very very difficult if you need flexibility. Pay £31 a day session and if cancelling 7 days more you pay in full. No telephone number to get hold of them. Everything done via portal. Refuse to speak to you in person. When we asked them to cancel our direct debit after being a customer for 7 months we were never asked why we were leaving, which surely when losing a valuable customer you would be concerned and want to know why? As soon as we cancelled our direct debit our dog was never shown in pictures and videos, despite other dogs that were leaving having leaving parties. Puppy play school great for socialisation and previously I recommended this to people. However the daycare seems to have become more and more of a money making business over the last 6 months. Daycare may be an option for those smaller dogs who don't need to expell lots of energy. Would not recommend for those active dogs who need to get out and run about! My dog seemed to be very hyper on return from daycare and wanting lots of attention. As soon as we started dog walks this stopped completely and he sleeps! You are made to book your dog in for neutering at 9 months (against pet advice) as they will not accept unneutered pups after 9 months. We were then pushed to book this even earlier by OPW as we were told our dog was displaying guarding signs and misbehaving. We personally had not noticed any changes in our dog at this time, and it was only when we said we needed to move day care dates for the neutering that any behaviour concerns were mentioned. We also had a message about him not being crate trained at day care. We never had any indication from them that my dog was needing to be put in a crate. Less

I always feel very happy leaving my dog in the care of Oxford Pet Whisperers. He is well cared for with plenty of interaction in a fantastic facility. He always comes home happy and tired! Less

Their doggy daycare and boarding are second to none our dog is happy and very well cared for by friendly and professional staff, the customer portal is available 24hrs for bookings etc. Their priority is always the safety and happiness of the dogs in their care, as it should be. Our dog has stayed in their hotel and had a great time - he loves all the staff and is always super keen to go in. The addition of grooming services is a fabulous bonus with lots of options and a very experienced groomer - open to all dogs not just daycare users - very highly recommended. Less

Very poor. Don’t be fooled by the pictures. Only interested in your money. Unprofessional, unfriendly and a money making company who hides behind their terms and conditions to get more money from you. No telephone number to make contact, no doorbell (apparently so they can focus on the dogs). Rubbish. No customer service skills. Taken £350 from my bank account for a hotel stay we didn’t use because I wouldn’t leave these charlatans with my worst enemy let alone my beloved puppy. They say you have to book weekly prior to a hotel stay but you can’t make a booking because they are full. They will say I’d left it too late but that is utter rubbish because you can never get booked in. I’d tried in April for a August booking. Why did your systems allow the booking in the first place if the so called terms and conditions hadn’t been adhered to? Money that’s why. Wouldn’t refund deposit (in May) and then took the balance without authorisation because I dared to challenge their processes. I asked them to call me and they didn’t reply. They will respond to this review with their usual rubbish standard T&Cs. I have screen shots of every conversation because they will probably delete my account. Utterly disgusted with them. Joke of a so called company. Less

Our lab Barley has been with the OPW since he was puppy and he's going to be 3 in September! He goes to daycare twice a week which he loves, the staff are amazing and he gets to see his doggy besties. Barley also had a groom this week and came back smelling lovely and feeling super soft. I can't recommend them highly enough, Natalie, Jamie, Rhy and all the other pet whisperers do a fantastic job. Less

My puppy has been attending OPW puppy school for 4 weeks now and he absolutely loves it. The staff are amazing, they always keep you up-to-date with how pup is doing on Instagram so you can see all the pups playing together. They all look so happy and are well taken care of. The OPW Shop is also fantastic for those little treats. Just used OPW Grooms and my boy came back looking and smelling beautiful. I can't speak highly enough of Oxford Pet Whisperers, I'm so glad I found them xx Less

The customer service didn't feel very friendly or welcoming and felt very commercialized. The booking system is very rigid making it difficult to fit around day to day work and living. With the new system a single ad hoc day would cost around the same as a week at our new daycare so feels expensive for what it is. Covid is part to blame but i've since found another local daycare that has a very friendly approach and they'll chat with you and tell you who the dogs been playing with and how they've been etc. every time you go to collect. Understandably, not everyone wants this but as owners who mainly put their dog into daycare so they can have some fun, its nice to know what they've been doing each day. For a dog who prefers toys and activities to playing with dogs i'd say this is a good daycare but for those who just love to rough and tumble its overpriced. It also works better for those who will buy regular days than those with less structured work weeks and need fairly last min bookings so can't guarantee they'll use up the packages within the time frame. Less

Baily absolutely LOVES Oxford Pet Whispers. The moment we arrive in the carpark he can't contain his excitement. It has been fantastic for his separation anxiety and learning how to interact with other dogs during these lockdown restrictions. Less

I've been taking my pups to puppy playschool here for a couple of months, and it's absolutely amazing. They come home happy and knackered and I know they're in good hands while they're there. There's lots of interaction with the pups during the morning, they aren't just left to their own devices which i appreciate. Highly recommended. Less

My dog LOVES going to Oxford pet Whisperers! In lockdown we have been working from home and we soon realised that this was causing socialisation issues with our dog. We then found OPW and thought we would give it a try and it was the best decision! My dog now goes a minimum of once a week for socialisation and good play! It means we also have a solution we are all happy with when we return to the office in 2021, hopefully. Thank you OPW Less

Our dog absolutely loves Oxford pet whispers. She always comes back so sleepy after so much playing with all her friends. They’ve been absolutely fantastic for our dog this year and managed to give her some of that critical socialising that’s needed for puppies development. I couldn’t recommend them enough! Less

OPW have been fantastic with Fox. She is a rescue and can be a little highly strung, all the staff have shown her nothing but kindness and patience. She has grown in confidence since being with them, I honestly don't know what we'd do without the facility! Nat, Jamie and the team are simply brilliant! Less

Oxford pet whispers has been a god send! From puppy play school and being able to socialise a new pup to day care during the week. Working at home and trying to entertain a 6 month old puppy is hard work and having a couple a days a week where I know he has the best time has been great during the pandemic. He runs in when we drop him off and is shattered at the end of the day. I love seeing the social media updates during the day. I know when we finally go back to the office he'll have some where he loves to play and is safe. Less

My dog has attended the daycare and absolutely loved it! It feels like a safe and professional place to send my fur baby, the dogs learn and socialise all day under the supervision of lovely, well-qualified staff members. I took advantage of the on-site groomers recently and was impressed with the simplicity of the options available and my puppy enjoyed his first ever groom with a caring groomer. Less

Absolutely amazing service, 100% recommend. My puppy loves his time there, the staff are all lovely and the facilities brilliant! Jamie and Natalie have gone above and beyond to help me as a key worker (NHS doctor) work at very short notice. Thank you 😊😊 Less

Our puppy absolutely loves the daycare! They are really attentive and care about all the dogs they look after. The facility is fantastic and it's a great place to give your dog some extra socialization. Less

The best doggy daycare around! Updates on social media stories means you can see how your dog's day is going. Natalie and Jamie are excellent at keeping your dog entertained and occupied. My dog loves going and is absolutely pooped by the end of day from all the play. 100% recommend by me and my dog 😊 Less

My dog Parker has been going here for over three months he absolutely loves it. Parker knows when his day is md gets very excited to meet with his friends. I could not think of a better place to take him they are fantastic thank you xxxxx Less

Lovely introduction. The business has an amazing concept with everything to make the dogs and the owners happy. So much space and all is clean and safe. Even the air gets filtered. My dog didn't want to come with me home after 30 minutes there. Less

Our little boy Bali loves it at Oxford Pet Whisperers. He is a very energetic Cockerpoo puppy and loves playing with other dogs of all shapes and sizes. It’s nice to know that the staff there continue your training, it’s not just that the dogs are left to their own devices all of the time. They use your commands for your dog and so your dog comes back after his stay and still understanding the commands you have spent time training him with. I also love the fact that they send you photos and often see them on social media. The new site in Didcot is well set up and Bali is always happy when we leave him, in fact he just runs off to them without even a kiss goodbye for his mummy! Less

OPW are absolutely fab - they take such amazing care of our little bundle of energy Luna ❤️ Luna’s little face lights up when Natalie or Jamie open the door and she has such a great time on their walks. We don’t have family near by, but OPW are so amazing at helping us out with Luna... they even took her when I went into labour with my little girl! Can’t recommend them enough! Less

I couldn't recommend Nat and her team more to anyone looking for a dog walker who genuinely cares for their dog, and who's dog genuinely loves going out walking with them! I love Nat's personal touch on the 'Time to Pet' app after every walk of updates on how the walk's gone, what they got up to and several pictures of the dogs clearly having a fun and happy experience. My dog is now a pro sitting by the curbside before crossing the road which I have to thank Nat for helping me out with my request for this. There's always a full bowl of fresh water when I come home. As a veterinary surgeon all of these points mean a lot to me, and I trust Nat and her team 100% to go that extra mile to provide the utmost care for my dog. Lucky looks forward to her walks with Oxford Pet Whisperers! Less

Both Natalie and Jamie do an amazing job making our pooches feel comfortable in their care. They always leave happy and are well looked after by the pair. Highly recrecommended service Less

Nat at Oxford Pet Whisperers has walked my two dogs for the past 6 months. They absolutely adore her! They can be a handful at times but Nat has been so good with them, and I trust her totally with their care. She is always punctual, listens to my requests regarding when and where to walk them (avoiding hot weather and walking near water when possible) and takes lovely photos of them out on their walk. She has also been in to check on my cats when away on holiday. Being a veterinary surgeon, the care of my pets is of the utmost importance to me, and I have been so happy with Nat and her team. I recommend her to all of my clients. Keep up the good work! Less

Our Cavapoo Malcolm LOVES Natalie, Jamie & Jürgen. So much so that I’m sure he’s more excited to see Natalie when she picks him up than when we get home from work. Oxford Pet Whispers sealed the decision for us getting a puppy; our biggest concern was what to do while we were at work or away and finding someone trustworthy to look after our pup. We couldn’t ask for a better place to leave Malcolm when we aren’t around and are so thankful for Natalie and Jamie. If you want your dog to be in an environment where they are loved, trained, get to play with other dogs and have a super fun time then give Oxford Pet Whispers a try...I promise you won’t regret it. Less

We have used Oxford Pet Whisperers while on holiday for one week. The service was outstanding. They looked after our boxer and french bull dog who are like our children. They treated them like part of their family and believe me they are real animal lovers. When we collected our babies they looked healthy and happy. The walks they went on were amazing and they made many friends. We feel they enjoyed their holiday as much as we did. Nothing is too much trouble for Natalie and Jamie they are a loving couple you can trust. Less
