Emma - Sam & Woody

​Just want to say a massive thank you to you both for having Sam and Woody. It's the first time I have left them with someone other than family, and from all the photos you have shared it looks like you treated them just like your own, they have had such a good time. Thank you once again xxxx

Sally - Luna

I couldn’t be happier with Wavy Tails Dog Day Care and Home Boarding! My dog has high energy and suffered with separation anxiety, so finding the right daycare and boarding facility was a challenge. Tayne is warm, professional, and clearly passionate about dogs. He shares regular videos and photos on his socials, which gives great peace of mind. Seeing Luna happy and relaxed at Wavy Tails has been amazing. If your dog needs a loving, structured environment, whether it’s just for the day or a longer stay then Wavy Tails is definitely the right place. It’s made a world of difference for both of us!

Helen - Maxy

We highly recommend Tayne as a dog boarder, he looked after our dog when we went away in February. Tayne had several days and some night trials to make sure he was right for us (and vice -versa) We loved seeing all the fun our pup was having on Tayne’s Facebook reels, the dogs enjoyed walking and letting off steam in the local countryside. It was reassuring to see our pup looking relaxed and calm when settling down on an evening in Tayne’s home.

Chanelle - Mabel

Wavy Tails has been amazing for my puppy, Mabel! Tayne is so caring and attentive, and I can tell Mabel feels right at home every time she’s there. She comes back happy, well-exercised, and always looks like she’s had the best day. Couldn’t recommend Wavy Tails enough

Steven - Bruno

Me and my wife cannot recommend Wavy Tails enough , Bruno has been going for 6 months now and he has come on so far and is a more confident doggie and even a little better behaved . Tayne has been amazing from the first meet and greet to the sign up and beyond, invoicing is clear and timely making this not only a lovely place for Bruno but very professional which gives us peace of mind

Anna - Pippa

Highly recommend, the best daycare around! Fantastic, friendly, and prompt communication for us humans and then the level of care and attention for the pups is above and beyond. Trusting someone to look after the new member of our family, 4 month old Pippa, felt nerve-wracking. Pippa is a sensitive soul and she was nervous at drop offs for the first couple of weeks but now she's pulling my arm off to get through the gate! I love seeing the pupdates and knowing that she's so happy and well cared for is just brilliant.

Ela - Buddy

Wavy Tails provided exceptional care for Buddy at an extremely difficult time for our family. Great communication, incredibly accommodating, kind, and truly worth their weight in gold. Highly recommend!

Georgina - Elvis

Our Labrador pup Elvis has joined the Wavy Tails gang recently and we couldn’t be more at ease! We knew straight away at the meet & greet that we’d love for Tayne to look after him for us. We completed the thorough booking form (which gave us a lot of reassurance) and he completed his trial. Elvis goes to Wavy Tails on an ad hoc basis but every time I drop him off he runs straight in wagging his tail like crazy. I know that he is treated so well and the pictures and videos of him whilst he’s there make my day! Thank you for looking after our precious pup

Alistair - Dougal

My cockerpoo Dougal has been going to Wavy Tails now for a few weeks and I can’t recommend them enough, after a thorough familiarisation with the other dogs we quickly agreed days for Dougal to go regularly and now he’s in a routine he can’t wait to get there in a morning, he’s always so excited, clearly has fun, is looked after well whilst he’s there and he comes home tired out! He’s currently fast asleep by my feet after a day at Wavy Tails! Can’t recommend them enough!

Alex - Nala

Great day care cover for our dog excellent communication and very through service made me feel totally confident leaving our dog while we attended a funeral.Many Thanks

Tamara - Sherlock & Bella

The same as most dog owners, I was very wary about leaving my dogs and worried about them a lot in the lead up to our holiday. Tayne put my mind at ease before their stay by asking a lot of information about their routines and quirks. When on holiday we had lots of updates and photos and it was clear to see the dogs were having a great time. They even went on their own holiday! Since then, Bella & Sherlock have stayed another 2 times and have always been happy to run into the house and start taking over 😂 Thank you Wavy Tails!

Yvette - Lily

Thank you for being our little girl's home away from home. We can go away rest assured that she's in good hands when she is with you! She's always so happy to see you 🐾

Yvonne - Charlie

Charlie has spent his 1st overnight stay with Tayne at Wavy tails All went well, Charlie has settled so well at Wavy tails, we fully recommend, Charlie can’t wait to go and play with his doggy friends

Kate - Joni

My cavapoo puppy Joni has had a great time at Wavy Tails. She always comes home tired but happy after plenty of fun and games. It's a real home from home for her - what more can you ask for?

Racheal - Pepper

Pepper has been going to day care for the last 6 months. She is always happy to see Tayne and her doggy friends! Plus we get Insta updates of her having fun during the day. Couldn't recommend Wavy Tails enough!

Kate - Stanley

Tayne is great and really easy to communicate with. My dog is always so excited to go to daycare,and always exhausted when he comes home. It's great to see pictures of him having fun during the day.

Fiona - Milo

Milo had a great time staying with Tayne and looked very happy in all the photos! We’ll definitely use Wavy Tails again when we go on holiday.

Andrew - Ripley

What a fantastic time Ripley had at Wavy Tails, met loads of new friends over the four days holiday. Lots of walks and adventures meant that she slept for most of the following two days. Tayne really went the extra to make sure that her stay was worry free for us, she is definitely looking forward to her stay later in the year

Julia - Poppy

Tayne will give you great piece of mind that your dog is in very good hands. He looked after our Poppy for the day and could see from all the photo's and videos, she had a great time with him and his lovely dogs. Your pet will be looked after by a very nice, yet also professional guy. Thoroughly recommend

20221123_124423.jpg
Helen - Teddy

Friendly and professional service always provided. My dog has the best time and comes home shattered from all the playing, walks and attention he gets 😊

20221209_124454.jpg
Josie - Bob

Tayne absolutely fantastic with my extremely timid and nervous collie. Provides lovely photos and feedback from their walks. Solo walks but I have confidence that Tayne will be able to introduce him to group walk. Not the cheapest service around but worth it for a happy for baby.

20221202_095153.jpg
Dulcie - Mookie

Tayne came to my rescue when my other dog sitter had to unexpectedly cancel due to illness. Literally, with 4 days' notice, Tayne welcomed my Mooky man with open arms whilst my partner and I were on holiday. Mooky can be grumpy sometimes, but he had the best little holiday and didn't want to come home! He was so well looked after, loved and cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Wavy Tails and Mooky will definitely be having more doggy holidays there Thank you for everything! xxx

20230116_140841_020_saved.jpg
Kym - Holly

Holly is a full time day care resident at Wavy Tails. Tayne and the gang have made my Holly feel very welcome from the initial meet and greet. Holly can present as nervous initially but this was was short lived. She is always really excited and happy to go and play with her friends at Wavy Tails. Tayne is professional and has a real passion for dogs! Couldn’t thank him enough for everything that he does, and the daily updates really brighten my day! Knowing that your furbaby is well looked after and having a wonderful day makes it all worthwhile. Give them a go.. you won’t be disappointed!

20230118_115648.jpg
Hayley - Peanut & Mabel

Tayne came to our rescue when we were looking for a place for our two dogs whilst we were visiting for a family funeral. He was very flexible and did everything he could to accommodate us. He took the dogs on a lovely long walk and they were tired out by the time we picked them up, so we could have a restful evening. Thanks so much, if we need a dog sitter in Huddersfield again we will definitely be in touch!

IMG_8091.jpg
Kate - Ziggy

Ziggy had a wonderful first day with Tayne and the other day care dogs at Wavy Tails. I knew that she would be fine after the first meet and greet and I was reassured by Tayne’s calm and caring way with Ziggy. When we collected her at the end of the day, she was calm and very tired, almost asleep before we got her home! Thanks Tayne, see you next time!

20230824_102412.jpg
Kelly - Hank

Tayne absolutely fantastic with my extremely timid and nervous collie. Provides lovely photos and feedback from their walks. Solo walks but I have confidence that Tayne will be able to introduce him to group walk. Not the cheapest service around but worth it for a happy for baby.

Sarah - Finn

Finn spent his first day at wavy tails the other week and we were very impressed! He seemed so happy afterwards and was tired out (which we struggle to do). We can’t wait to get Finn booked in again! Thank you so much for giving our boy the best experience.

20230413_082523.jpg
Jo - Ruby

Ruby spent 5 nights boarding with Tayne and Dan whilst we were away getting married. At the very first meet & greet, I knew Ruby would be at home with Tayne and his dogs Woody & Luna. She had 1 settling in daycare prior to her "holiday" & had a great time, even though sometimes she can get a little anxious. I didn't worry about her once whilst she was in Taynes care, I was updated regularly and could pop on instagram to see daily stories of their adventures I've got photos of Ruby running around with the other dogs in fields & parks, getting muddy, chasing balls, sleeping soundly snuggled upto Woody. Its pretty clear to see that she was living her best life! If you want to leave your dog with someone, to feel like they are at home away from home, Tayne at Wavy Tails is the one for you!Thank you so much!! Ruby is missing you guys and can't wait to come back soon

20230511_104128.jpg
Melissa - Tilly

Tayne looked after our beagle, Tillie for 8 nights whilst we went on holiday. From the updates and pictures on Facebook we could tell Tillie was having the time of her life and it made our holiday much more enjoyable knowing that she was happy and being well looked after. Will definately be recommending Wavy Tails to all our doggy friends!

Megan - Hobnob

My dog is so well taken care of, and the set up is extremely well thought through and professional. Just brilliant

20250820_135120.jpg
Karen - Buddy

We can’t thank Wavy Tails enough for the amazing care they gave our granddog, Buddy, while we were away for a wedding. From start to finish, the communication was excellent friendly, clear, and reassuring. They were so accommodating with our schedule, and it made the whole experience completely stress free. Most importantly, Buddy had a blast! It was clear from his behaviour when he came home that he was happy, well cared for, and treated like part of the family. As Buddy’s grandma, it means the world to know he was in such loving hands. He came home relaxed, tail-wagging, and maybe even a little spoiled (in the best way!). We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for Buddy, and we wouldn't hesitate to book again. Highly recommend to any pet parent looking for kind, professional, and genuinely caring boarding! Buddy’s Grandma 🐾

Laura - Luna

Tayne's had Luna since she was 5 months old as we struggled to leave her alone for work. He has a small select group of dogs which was really important to us, and it's clear he really cares about each and every one of them, even the barky demandy beagley ones! She has a good mix of exercise and rest, and always comes back happy and tired, a little home away from home. We also enjoy being able to see regular updates each day. We look forward to boarding her in the future, thank you Uncle Tayne 😁

20241004_113511.jpg
Michelle - Ava

Our puppy just loves being at Wavy Tails. She’s always so excited to arrive and we love the update photos on social media seeing what she’s been up to on her walks. Cannot recommend highly enough!

20240909_102609.jpg
Stuart - Henry

Henry had a great time with Tayne and doggie friends. Tayne has a great way with dogs. Highly recommend.

Jimmy - Frankie

Couldn't recommend Wavy Tails enough, we have just had our wedding and our dalmatian frankie stayed over for a couple of days and had the biggest grin on her face the whole time. Frankie is quite a nervous dog but has now come out of her shell after going to only a few day walks and the most recent boarding. If you are looking for a dog walker in the Huddersfield area make sure you get in touch and you won't regret it!

Daisy - Freddie

We cannot recommend Wavy Tails enough. We have been taking our boy here for a few months now on an ad-hoc basis for daycare, and due to the excellent service, have just completed his first boarding experience this past week and could not be happier.

Sue - Bruno

Bruno finished his daycare trial today and I have one super happy doggo , he is exhausted and content !! The whole process from first contact to the meet and great and then filling in the forms has been amazing, professional and reassuring!! Previous to Wavy Tails we had gone through an app and ended up with someone I now know was not licensed and should never have been looking after my pup and all I can say is the difference is massive and I am So pleased we have found Wavy Tails and feel much comfier leaving my little pup with Tayne who clearly knows what he is doing and looks after all dogs with such care , I mean just look at the video’s each dog is living their best life , Bruno will be going every week as long as they will have him ☺️

Kyle - Elvis

Wouldn’t dream of taking our pup anywhere else. He’s always happy to go and tired when he comes home from a day filled with fun. He is so precious to us so we can certainly guarantee that Tayne cares for him like we would. Many thanks as always.

IMG_1920.jpg
Uwaiz - Neo

There is genuinely so many good things to say about Wavy Tails I don’t even know where to start! Neo absolutely loves going there for daycare and has made lots of friends. He’s been in a much better mood and his behaviour has improved so much (no more biting!!). Honestly fantastic, Tayne really cares about the dogs he takes in, I can just how much he cares for Neo and he does so much for him. Could go on and on but bottom line is I’d absolutely recommend Wavy Tails for anyone looking for doggy daycare, just fantastic!

David - Bertie & Zero

My two Sammies have spent the last two months day sitting with Tayne for two days a week. I was worried about leaving them as they have never been left like this before. However after the first day it was clear they absolutely loved it! Both clearly love their time with Tayne and his other guests and they sprint from the car whenever they know it’s time to go to WavyTails. They are shattered when coming home! Cannot thank Tayne enough for looking after my two.

20231004_142756.jpg
Joan - Baxter

Our boy Baxter just loves going to Wavy Tails for daycare and boarding. I have to say he is our precious boy and I was quite apprehensive about leaving him but I have not been worried at all. He is treated and loved and cared for as part of the family. He loves playing with the other dogs and always comes home tired after a busy day. If you are looking for doggy day care, I would absolutely recommend Wavy Tails!

Shelagh - Barney

My 10 month old cocker spaniel started at Wavy Tails 5 weeks ago and he absolutely loves it. He goes 2 days a week and had his first sleep over this week. He's always excited to go, jumps oug of the car and runs straight in with his tail wagging. Tayne truly treats the dogs like his own and they get a lovely walk everyday I would recommend Wavy Tails to anyone who wants to be confident their dog is being looked after in a caring environment

Nina - Willow

Willow loved her mini break this weekend - Tayne really looked after her. It was a very hot weekend weather wise but we knew that Willow would be cared for with lots of playing. She came home tired and relaxed which was great - the whole process of booking and meeting Tayne and his dogs was very professional and we were very happy with everything.

Kirsty - Fergus

Fergus has just returned from 2+ weeks with Wavy Tails. We loved looking at the photo updates and he was having a fab time. He has come home very happy and relaxed. Can't thank Tayne enough for caring for him so well while we were on holiday.

Nigel - Bella

Bella had a lovely 3 night stay with Tayne and Dan. she looked to be having a whale of a time in all the photo's. Wavy Tails Come highly recommended.A top choice for your Doggy Care !

IMG_6564-EDIT.jpg
Julie - Pip

Pip spent a week’s holiday with Tayne - I say holiday as it was clear from the photo updates that she was having a blast. She was well looked after, spent the week socialising with other dogs and generally having the time of her life. To top it off, Tayne is a talented photographer/dog whisperer so we got some amazing photos. Thank you Tayne for looking after our girl.

IMG_5432.jpg
Brooke - Jax & Opie

Our boys Jax and Opie spent a night at Wavy Tails and had the best time! We loved the photo updates which were posted to social media and couldn’t be happier with how happy the boys looked. The boys were shattered on their way home!

Jodie - Mylo

Our puppy Mylo recently stayed with Wavy tails for a day and overnight stay after they were recommended to us; I’m so glad we have found them! Tayne and his partner are friendly and took such good care of Mylo, we instantly felt comfortable upon meeting them and him staying there. Mylo looked to have loved his walks and they took on board Mylo’s needs and requirements and treated him like one of their own. When we picked Mylo up, he looked so settled there which was so nice to see and you can see Tayne is a natural with dogs! Highly recommend, one of the best! I’m sure Mylo will look forward to his stay again with you both. Thanks again :)

20230131_105652.jpg
Daniel - Fozzie

Tayne at Wavy Tails has looked after my (awesome) 11 month old pup called 'Fozzie', for both day care and overnight boarding. A dogs tail doesn't lie...and Fozzie absolutely loves his time there, and it's comforting to know that he is being looked after well. When I get him home he is tired out! The cost is very reasonable too.

20221213_124130_018_saved.jpg
Steph - Bilton

Our 5 month old golden retriever Bilton has been going to Wavy Tails for nearly a month now, and when I say he loves it that is probably an understatement. We are the classic overprotective mummies that want the best for our boy and I can honestly say we have landed an absolute diamond in Wavy Tails. Bilton is treated like a king whilst he is there, we get regular updates throughout the day and I know that he is really well cared for and has so much fun! I was really anxious about going back to work in the office and not being around Bilton all day but knowing that Bill is having the best time makes everything so much easier. When Bilton arrives home after his day with Tayne you can see the bond they are building and just how much he loves him already. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Tayne, I cannot recommend Wavy Tails enough. Just look at that smiley face!

20221216_094901 (1).jpg
Mandy - Koko

On meeting Tayne and his partner at the meet and greet, I was very relieved to see how my dog was made welcome, not to mention the security of their garden. I could not recommend him highly enough. It’s a very happy, relaxed home. Also, extremely professional. Also kept me personally up to date with photos.

20230119_122909.jpg
Isabel - Stevie

I only found Wavy Tails by chance but so glad I did, our girl Stevie loves going on walks with Tayne and his crew of pups. He seems to genuinely love animals and was so welcoming to Stevie when they first met. He is great with communication and is quick to respond. I also love the photos he collects on their walks!

20221205_085220.jpg
Sarah - Milo

So happy we found Wavy Tails doggy day care. It has been the best thing ever for our 2 year old springer spaniel dog Milo. Milo can be nervous with new people and in new surroundings so I wasn’t sure whether it would work out. With Tayne’s patience and genuine love of dogs he has settled in no time. We love seeing the photos Tayne takes of Milo’s day- it always looks he has so much fun!!

20221129_112323.jpg
Lorna - Oakley

Amazing dog walking and pet sitting service. Tayne provides excellent care for our pup in his home and out on walks. We found the introduction meeting in our home very comforting as we were then confident that we were leaving Oakley in safe hands. I’d highly recommend Tayne and will definitely use his services again.

Rachel - George

Our dog’s favourite place Our dog stayed with wavy tails for two nights and he had the best time. It was so nice being away and not worrying about our little pal, we also got to see lots of photos of him having fun on social media. He’s also had a couple of days with wavy tails for day care and Tayne has been great. Would recommend to anyone!

IMG_7063.jpg
Sandy - Hugo

Wavy Tails Doggy Daycare. Hugo was rehomed to us and due to being neglected was extremely clingy, anxious and fretful. After only 1 meet and greet where Tayne welcomed Hugo with so much warmth, spent time with him alone before introducing his other dogs, Hugo had the best play time ever. When I dropped Hugo off for this first Daycare session he didn't even look back at me....off he went straight to Tayne with his tail wagging away. Hugo has become so more relaxed and behaving much better around other dogs. When we left Hugo overnight we didn't even worry one bit and was able to enjoy our night away 100%. Highly Recommend Tayne and Thank You

Brilliant doggy day care, one very well looked after pup. The meeting and greet was amazing for putting me at ease. Would highly recommend

RUSTY
Emma - Rusty

Our Rusty has recently started going on walks with Wavy Tails, specifically with Siobhan, and they’ve been great! Siobhan and Tayne are highly professional and knowledgeable about caring for dogs. They have been great at accommodating Rusty, who is a rescue and can be nervous when experiencing new situations, taking the time to understand him. Would recommend. 🙂

Ela - Buddy

We recently used Wavy Tails to look after our dog, Buddy, while we attended a family wedding, and we couldn’t be more impressed. Wavy Tails truly went above and beyond to make sure Buddy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was excellent throughout, and it was such a relief knowing Buddy was in safe, loving hands. A fantastic service – we would highly recommend Wavy Tails to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
