Multi-Award Winning
Doggie Day Care & your dog can enjoy the day exploring with their friends. They can take a dip in the splash pool, relax in the sensory garden, jump into the giant ball pit or simply have a snooze in one of our air-conditioned cabins. We're there to provide constant supervision, plenty of cuddles & treats as well as regular games and activities to keep those tails wagging.

Welcome to our Happy Place!

A whole day of fun!
Get paws moving, learn, play & make new friends. A great opportunity to engage in natural dog behaviours like digging, searching, sniffing and exploring. What could be better than spending the entire day with your besties!
Who is Joey?
Joey was our beautiful Jack russell terrier who inspired us to follow our dream of building our very own Doggie Day Care! His memory lives on with every belly rub, tail wag and snuggle - he's at the heart of everything we do.

Doggie Day Care in Dorchester
All the fun stuff...
We've created the perfect place to get paws exploring, brains whirring & tails wagging!
Joey's is all about making new friends & discovering a world of fun!
Filled with lots of dog friendly plants and herbs, this is the place to relax in the sun or choose your favourite smell. Mint, Rosemary, or Thyme perhaps?
Why have one ball when you can have a hundred! Dive right in and grab as many as you like!
Who's the king of the castle?!! The only way to find out is to cross the series of bridges and platforms and check out the view from atop the fort.
After a busy morning of adventuring, take a nice nap in one of the cabins, choose a bed or have a cuddle with friends & nod off to relaxing mood music.
Cool off in the summer with a dip in the splash pool or maybe channel your inner kangaroo on the trampolines.
Located on Dewflock farm in Winterborne Monkton, we're incredibly lucky to have such a beautiful area with lots interesting sounds and smells near by.
What do paw parents say about us
Testimonials
Clancy Hammond
Our boy Erik (Pointer) absolutely loves Joey's. We moved down from Maidenhead in December 19 and were looking to match the amazing day care he went to there & were concerned about him going to a “new school” but we needn’t have been. Joey’s is absolutely amazing. It’s like a Go Ape for dogs with beds for the dogs to sleep, showers, relaxing music, the list is endless. It’s a cut above. We trust them to look after Erik like he was their own. Couldn’t recommend more. Also Joey's is run by a fun young couple with loads of energy. They pick up and drop off, send you pictures throughout the day and before you join, they ensure that the right combinations of dogs are put together for the day so they get along. Totally unique service. 11/10!
Ann Kirby
Choosing day care for a lockdown puppy, who has never spent any time away from us, was a challenge. I had read about Joey's & loved the ethos, learning, structure & fun in a big open space. Little did I believe how wonderful the whole experience would be. Tom worked with our dog through separation anxiety, learning manners around other dogs & confidence. She receives limitless love, care delivered with humour, clear guidelines, knowledge & professionalism. Tom & Sara are an extension to our dog's family. She can't wait to be collected from our home & comes home shattered. A one in a kind doggy daycare. We would never send her anywhere else.
Kelly Haggett
We couldn’t recommend Joey’s enough, wonderful setting and highly professional and caring staff. We’ve been so impressed with the service from the initial contact through to sending Mabel along to Joey’s. Every attention to detail is heartening. Most importantly, as soon as the Joey’s van pulls up in the morning, Mabel is super excited and cannot wait for cuddles with Tom. Says it all! Thank you to Joey’s for the joy you bring.
Rohan Scott
Tom and Sara are fantastic! They have worked so hard to create a safe, fun and entertaining environment for dogs- and provide an amazing service. Nothing else in Dorchester like it! There are big outside areas for the dogs to play in, cabins with little bed areas and lots of things to keep the dogs entertained like the huge ball pool and interactive garden. The team are so kind and caring, and truly understand dogs. Thank you Joey’s!
Zena Olney
Peace of mind as an owner; happy, contented dog; stimulating, safe environment; positive socialisation and play are only SOME of the aspects of my own dog, Freda, attending Joey’s Doggie Day Care. Tom and Sara have created such a fab facility and I am 110% happy with all of their care, attentiveness and knowledge. Thank you for this provision (thanks too on behalf of Freda).
