advice and developments, something that is then reflected in the outstanding service and high standards personified at every turn. To make sure that every dog has the best time at K9 Adventures’ home of Grove Farm, Harfield, Sarah plans a number of enrichment activities for them and makes sure that all staff are able to offer quality and tailored care. “I expect my staff to do two things”, says Sarah, “turn up and always do their best.” The staff training programme that Sarah delivers from the outset of a member joining and her prioritising of attitude over experience guarantee the nurturing of a team that are passionate about their duties and capable of carrying them out. Pete also works equally as hard to ensure that K9 Adventures’ leading reputation is upheld, as it is his responsibility to both manage the site and oversee all repairs and improvements, as well as keeping the company and its vans on the road. The last of these duties has brought about some challenges as of late, as the government’s expansion of London’s ULEZ (ultra-low emissions zone) meant that the three existing vans the company had at its disposal were suddenly deemed noncompliant, despite them being perfectly good. Sarah and Pete were faced with the dilemma that they may have to pay £12.50 per day to use these vans when transporting the dogs for customers, so they instead made the decision to trade these existing diesel vans in and swap them for new electric ones. Not only are these vans bigger, meaning that fewer are needed for the business’ daily activities, but they also represent K9 Adventures doing its bit for the environment, contributing to a happy and healthy future for the next generation of furry, four-legged friends and their humans. When he is not managing the site itself or solving problems like the one mentioned above, Pete makes use of his impressive scentwork qualifications – UK Sniffer Dogs Bronze and Silver to be exact – to serve as K9 Adventures’ scentwork instructor. The skills that dogs can learn over these training exercises run by Pete not only make dogs more aware and alert, but they also tap into their inquisitive nature, providing them with all of the mental stimulation necessary to keep them fit and healthy, both physically and emotionally. “Your pet deserves to feel privileged.” K9 Adventures strives to be a second home to dogs of all sizes and breeds, providing them with an environment defined by other wagging tails and a series of happy, smiling faces. Its memberships are affordable and both of its offerings for adult dogs, one spanning daycare and the other an expansion for existing daycare members including boarding, run for six months at a time. Finally, both daycare and boarding is available for puppies, familiarising them with socialising, learning, and play across a four-to-six-month period. Last of all, K9 Adventures is excited to announce that it recently started work on renovating an empty part of its premises, which is set to hold both a dog groom room and a hydrotherapy pool in the near future, two additional services that pups and their owners are sure to enjoy having available to them on an upcoming visit. This represents the commitment embodied by Sarah, Pete, and the rest of the K9 Adventures team to offering nothing short of the gold standard for pets from their licensed dog daycare in Hillingdon. Named as the Best Doggy Daycare Provider 2024 - South East England, this serves as the second consecutive year that the excellent K9 Adventures Ltd has been recognised by us for its outstanding services to man’s best friend across the Greater London region.
