About us - Auntie's Doggie Daycare

Auntie’s Doggie Daycare comes to Preston city centre

Preston’s top dogs are in for a treat as a new Auntie’s Doggie Daycare centre prepares to open the doors of its city centre premises, bringing a welcome injection of new business to the area.

The 5000-square-foot dog daycare centre will be based on Essex Street, and will include a spacious play arena, a Puppy Club, an OAP lounge for mature dogs, as well as a boutique packed with recommended canine care products.

This new dog daycare facility follows in the footsteps of Auntie’s original outlet, located in nearby Lostock Hall and a firm favourite with pet owners for almost 10 years. Like the flagship branch, Auntie’s new central Preston premises will provide specialist daycare and grooming services - everything the responsible dog owner could want.

Local businessmen Conrad Lea and Jordan Magill are excited to be working with Auntie’s Doggie Daycare to launch the new central Preston franchise.

Conrad commented, “As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to know your pet is well cared for. Auntie’s is staffed by people who not only love dogs, but who understand dog behaviour, and can make sure your dog has plenty of fun and exercise in the safest possible way.

“We’ll be open from 7am until 6.30pm so busy pet-owners can get their pets settled in before heading off to work, safe in the knowledge that they are being well looked after from the moment they walk through the doors.”

Jordan added, “The Auntie’s concept struck us as unique: it’s not about leaving dogs to entertain themselves; structured activities like treasure hunts, country walks and assault courses challenge dogs, and keep them active and engaged. Auntie’s pups are encouraged to explore, socialise, and learn canine etiquette - or ‘doggie manners’! - which makes for happier, healthier dogs in the long-term.”

In line with Auntie’s Safe, Stimulating and Sociable ethos, the new franchise is happy to welcome all dogs that meet its neutering, inoculation and behaviour requirements.

Auntie’s Doggie Daycare’s Essex Street branch will open in October/November this year. The whole team looks forward to welcoming local pups - and, of course, their human friends.
