Greater London Enterprise Awards 2024

SME News Greater London Enterprise Awards 2024/ 10 In the fast-paced world that we live in on the back of the pandemic, many dog owners today struggle to find the time to properly care for their pets during the week or at weekends, especially if they are required to travel for work or spend long hours in the office away from their pups. This is where K9 Adventures and its exemplary dog daycare service comes in, with its presiding core value of ensuring that dogs are afforded unforgettable experiences and allowed to live their best lives during the periods where their family cannot be there for them. Owners can rest assured that their dogs will be well taken care of in this environment, as the strict entry process employed by Sarah and the team ensures that no unfamiliar or unvetted dogs enter the fray and disrupt the others. K9 Adventures’ robust screening process begins with an initial assessment session where Sarah meets the dog to see if they are a good fit for the daycare, after which a four-day orientation programme follows complete with lots of one-to-one time, ensuring that a dog is settled and that their unique personality is understood. Across the approximately eight hours of daily care that a dog is provided with at the company’s secure centre, activities range from spending time in a relaxing scent garden and partaking in a number of games to enjoying healthy snack time along with the other pups that they will soon be the best of friends with. A rinse off before home is then included if it is necessary after a long day of playing outside, with pick up and drop off also available as a standard part of the daycare service on every day of the week except for Sundays. K9 Adventures is distinguished from other pet daycare providers given that it was born out of an unbridled passion for dogs, not simply created as another standard pet daycare business. Thanks to a background working with horses, Sarah’s understanding of animal behaviour is near unrivalled. She founded the business after her own personal struggles of trying to scout reliable care for her own four-legged friends, and she today ensures that every pup under her care is afforded the same treatment that she would expect for her own dogs. Along with husband Pete, son Conar, and the rest of the team, Sarah sees a reliable, flexible, and readily available service provided to customers almost 365 days of the year. Besides the knowledge and the experience of the team, K9 Adventures is also aided by the regular training sessions its staff attend from the likes of animal behaviourists and pet first aiders, helping them to remain up to date on the latest This year, K9 Adventures Ltd, Hillingdon’s premier doggy daycare provider, is celebrating its tenth anniversary. What makes this achievement even more impressive is that Sarah Stevens, the self-professed “crazy dog lady” behind this operation, established the business simply to carry out both dog walking and small animal visits, and its evolution has come naturally from there. Today, the company is centred around its five-star, certified, and membersonly dog daycare centre that is tailored towards providing enrichment for all of the furry friends under its care.
