What a team

What a team! I have been so grateful for the ease with which they all help in any emergency or change of plans. Nothing is too much trouble. Simon is so caring of the humans but even more so the dogs.
Barney loves going to Surrey Hills.

The team at Bruce's are great

The team at Bruce's are great. My dog Betsy knows when it is 'school day' day gets so excited. She runs to the van and jumps straight in ( not before getting her cuddle from Ellie). She always has such a great day and is exhausted when she gets home. Her tracker often says she has run and played for over 15 miles. She is a complex dog and it has done wonders for her confidence and her social skills with other dogs and people. Simon is also great and quick to inform me of any changes. I cant fault it and it is worth every penny.

Hi Tracy,

Thank you for such a great 5 star review!

It’s always a joy to hear about these “school day” routines, and Betsy’s excitement says it all! Knowing she heads home happily worn out after a day full of play, and that her confidence and social skills have grown along the way, really means a lot to us.

Ellie and Simon will be delighted to hear your kind words, and we’re so pleased you feel well supported. Here's to many more fun adventures together!

I’m so happy that my dog goes to Bruce’s Doggy Care she is so happy there she loves it. She plays with other dogs and she likes going even on the days that she doesn’t go. She sits at the window waiting and then she realised not today also the staff at Bruce Doggy Care like Kirsty Simon and Jane they are fantastic. They will help you if you’ve got a problem and nothing is too hard for them. I do recommend Bruce Doggy Care to my friends and family because they said how happy poppy is and that’s all down to Bruce Doggy Care

Our Labrador loves going to Bruce's

Our Labrador loves going to Bruce's, its the highlight of her week, getting to play with her other doggy friends and generally wear herself out.

She always happily leaves the house and jumps into the van and is always tucked in safe in her room when she comes home.

The positive experience and other dog socilisation makes her a good girl and a joy to be around other dogs and people.

Hi James,

Thank you so much for the five stars! We’re thrilled to hear that your lovely lab enjoys her time at Bruce’s - especially playing with her doggy friends. It’s wonderful to know that the socialisation and positive experiences she gets with us help make her such a happy, confident pup.

We’re so glad she’s part of our Bruce’s family and can't wait for many more happy adventures together.

Peace of mind and a very happy dog!

We got our puppy four years ago, a very energetic Hungarian Vizsla, and from the outset we knew that with our work schedules she’d need extra support through either a dog walker or daycare. After visiting several options, Bruce’s felt like the best fit for both us and our dog. We initially started at the Cobham centre and loved the facilities. Winnie always came home happy, settled, and suitably worn out.

Now four years old, Winnie still attends Bruce’s twice a week at the Surrey Hills centre and absolutely loves it. It gives us real peace of mind knowing she’s happy, stimulated, and so well looked after. We also attended puppy classes at Bruce’s when she was just 12 weeks old, and I genuinely believe that, alongside daycare, this played a huge role in shaping Winnie into the confident, well-socialised, and lovable dog she is today.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bruce’s to anyone looking for outstanding daycare and support for their dog.

Hi Rob,

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and heartfelt review.

It’s been a real pleasure to be part of Winnie’s journey, from those early puppy classes right through to her Surrey Hills adventures today. Knowing that Bruce’s has helped give you peace of mind (and Winnie such a happy, enriching routine) truly means the world to us.

She is an absolute joy, and we’re so grateful for your trust and recommendation.

Hi Susan,

Thank you so much for your 5 star review!

We’re so happy to hear that your furry friend loves coming to see us and that Bruce’s feels like a second home for him – that’s exactly what we strive for! Our team truly adore the dogs in our care, so it means a lot to hear that comes through.

Thanks again for trusting us with your pooch, we love having him as part of the Bruce’s family.

Fantastic

Well, what can I say. Bruce’s took on my amazing English Pointer when another daycare said he was too much like hard work. We knew he wasn’t and it was the way they managed the dogs regards to size, rather than activity levels.

From the start, Bruce’s just got him. He’s had wonderful care and socialization and if not for finances, he’d be staying. Flynn can’t wait to get there, cries in the car in anticipation. The staff are great and their policies mean we could change our set day. Kept in touch and updated ne whilst never making me overly stressed or interfering with my work.

Thank you to all the staff for looking after Flynn so well. If situation was different we would be back in a heartbeat. I now have a totally socialised and happy dog

Antwoord van Bruce's Doggy Day Care

Hi Suzanne,

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful and heartfelt review.

We absolutely loved getting to know Flynn and we’re so pleased to hear how positive his experience with us has been. It means a lot to know that our approach to grouping by activity levels and understanding exactly what dogs really need made such a difference for him.

Hearing that he was excited to arrive (even before getting out of the car!) is one of the best compliments we could receive.

Our team will be really touched by your kind words about the care, communication and flexibility – it’s exactly what we aim to provide for both dogs and their humans. While we’ll miss seeing Flynn, we’re so glad he’s leaving us as a confident, happy and well-socialised boy. We've loved being a part of his story.

Thank you again for trusting us with him, and we hope our paths cross again in the future.

The Team at Wellington are fantastic and my Cavapoo loves going to Bruce’s. The staff are excellent and well organised. My car broke down today and the team helped me jump start it, arranged space in the doggy bus to bring my dog home on short notice and let me swap the rest of my days this week to manage without a car - excellent customer service !!

Thank you so much for sharing your five star review, Claire!

We’re so pleased to know that your Cavapoo loves their time with us, and that the Wellington team were able to make a stressful day a little easier. Going the extra mile for both our dogs and their owners is something we really care about, so it’s lovely to hear that came through.

The team at Surrey hills pay brilliant care and attention to my fluffy baby. She’s happy to go (except when she wants to stay in bed!!) The facilities are excellent, the service super easy to book and use via the website or app with quick efficient communication. Pick up and drop off is seamless. Couldn’t recommend Bruce’s enough. Great added touches with the themed weeks,free Bruce’s bandana in the summer, genuinely never had a single issue, but even if I did the top notch service sure would be easily resolved. Thanks for your 5* care.

Awful conditions

Awful conditions, my dog was in a van for hours a day, came home filthy with torn ripped coats, got into scraps with other dogs Bruce’s tried to get me to pay for their trainer. I contact two independent trainers who said he had no behavioural problems. Money making scam detrimental to dogs health

Bruce’s will ruin your dog.

I worked at Bruce’s for over 2 years, my dog attended while I was working there.
I would never in a million years send my dog to Bruce’s, there’s no doubt in my mind that if I wasn’t there giving her special treatment she would have ended up with behavioural problems and more than likely injured or lost. I’ve read through some of the reviews on this page, all of the responses from Bruce’s are untrue and poor attempts to save their dying business. I could go on for pages and pages about all the horrible things that happened while I was working there. Most of the allegations I’ve seen online are true and not misconstrued in any way. Bruce’s grew its business way too quickly, opening up too many sites and therefore neglecting their old ones. I urge everyone to not sign up to Bruce’s, and remove your dog if it is already attending. Bruce’s will ruin your dog.
