Doggy Day Care Harlow
Looking for trusted doggy day care in Harlow? At Eddie’s Doggy Daycare we believe dogs deserve more than just being “looked after” while you’re busy. They deserve a day that’s active, social, stimulating and genuinely enjoyable.
That’s exactly what we provide.
Instead of spending hours home alone, dogs attending our daycare enjoy structured play, outdoor adventures, enrichment activities and proper downtime with a team who genuinely understands dogs.
We’ve been caring for dogs across Essex, Hertfordshire and East London for over 11 years and are proud to be one of the longest-running licensed daycares in the area. We’re also highly rated by Epping Forest & Broxbourne Council, giving owners peace of mind that their dogs are in safe, experienced hands.
A Daycare Designed Around Dogs
Dogs thrive on routine, movement and interaction. Without enough stimulation, many become bored, frustrated or restless at home.
Our doggy day care in Harlow gives dogs a full, balanced day where they can socialise safely, burn off energy and enjoy consistent structure.
Some dogs spend the day charging around with their friends. Others prefer slower-paced play, sniffing missions or supervised enrichment games. We tailor the environment around the dogs in our care rather than forcing every dog into the same experience.
Over 6 Acres of Secure Outdoor Space
One thing dogs never complain about here? Lack of room.
We have over 6 acres of secure outdoor space, making us one of the largest daycare environments in the district. That space allows dogs to move naturally, play safely and enjoy far more freedom than many smaller indoor daycare setups can offer.
Fresh air, exercise and outdoor exploration are a huge part of what makes daycare such a positive experience for many dogs.
Carefully Matched Playgroups
Good daycare isn’t about throwing lots of dogs together and hoping for the best.
Every dog joining Eddie’s completes an assessment first. We take time to understand their temperament, confidence and play style so we can place them with compatible dogs.
This helps create calmer group dynamics and safer interactions throughout the day.
We also prioritise regular attendees, which means dogs get to know both the handlers and the other dogs they spend time with. That consistency helps build confidence, routine and stronger social bonds.
Experienced, Full-Time Team
Our team works with the dogs full-time, allowing them to genuinely get to know each dog’s personality and needs.
Staff receive ongoing training in canine behaviour, group management and safety, helping ensure every dog receives attentive, knowledgeable care throughout the day.
Whether your dog is energetic, cautious, playful or somewhere in between, our team adapts their approach to suit them.
Free Pick Up and Drop Off from Harlow
We know convenience matters just as much as care quality. That’s why our service includes free pick up and drop off from Harlow.
We collect directly from your home and return your dog after a full day of play, socialisation and rest.
Our petcare system also keeps everything organised, including bookings, vaccination reminders and collection logs.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US
"Where to start, Eddie’s daycare has been part of my life for at least 4 years. I had 4 dogs at that time, and they went twice a week every week.
Over that 4 year period my dog family has grown and I now have 9 !!
Eddie has always been helpful and professional but also a friend. The staff are fantastic and my dogs absolutely adore them. They truly care and make sure all the dogs have a wonderful fun filled day.
It’s been great for them to mix with others in a safe environment...If anyone is thinking about a wonderful place for their dog to meet and play I fully recommend you go to Eddie’s."

"I love Eddie's Doggy Daycare, and so does Rusty my mini dachshund. He has such a fun day and I really enjoy seeing the pictures of his smiling face. He is usually so tried afterwards that he just crashes out, in a happy sleep! The friendly team pick up from home, whether you are in or not, and do everything to let you know your dog is back home safe :)
Would highly recommend to anyone who has a flexing work schedule - we do 1-2 days per week, which varies and there is never an issue with this (unlike other daycare's that want you to commit to the full week).
Eddie and his staff are the best!"
