Wagging Trails

About our Home Boarding

Welcome to Wagging Trails — a calm, home-from-home dog day care service based in Little Plumstead, just east of Norwich.

Run by Sam, alongside partner Craig and their Cavaliers Bramble and Jasper, Wagging Trails specialises in regular weekly day care for friendly, well-socialised dogs who enjoy gentle play, fresh air, and familiar company.

Our approach is calm, structured, and personal — giving every dog the time, consistency, and individual attention they deserve.

Home boarding is available exclusively for our regular day care dogs, ensuring they already know our home, routine, and playmates before any overnight stay.

Accommodation:

Our home is cosy and welcoming, with access to the lounge, kitchen, and secure garden throughout the day. Dogs relax on soft beds and sofas, enjoying all the comforts of family life.

Overnight guests sleep where they feel most comfortable — in their own bed from home, a comfy dog bed, or an open crate in a quiet spot. The garden is fully enclosed with double security gates, and all outdoor time is closely supervised for safety and peace of mind.

Exercise:

Dogs at Wagging Trails enjoy twice-daily visits to a secure, private dog park, giving them safe freedom to run, sniff, and explore off-lead. Activities are always tailored to the individual — whether that’s a playful dash, a gentle potter, or relaxed enrichment in the garden.

Between outings, dogs enjoy plenty of rest, cuddles, and calm enrichment — creating a perfect balance of activity and relaxation.

Health & Hygiene:

Your dog’s wellbeing is always our top priority. All dogs must be fully vaccinated (or have up-to-date titre tests) and on regular flea and worm protection.

We work closely with Rackheath Vets for emergencies, are trained in Canine First Aid and Behaviour, and are fully insured and DBS-checked.

Our home is cleaned daily with pet-safe disinfectants, and fresh water is always available to keep everyone comfortable and healthy.
