Rootophia is a welfare-led doggy daycare in Attleborough, caring for dogs from the town and surrounding villages across Norfolk. Whether you're searching for dog daycare Attleborough, dog daycare Norfolk or simply dog daycare near me, our calm, structured days are built around your dog's wellbeing, confidence and happiness. We're also one of the few providers offering dog daycare with a swimming pool, thanks to our indoor heated dog pool on site.
Our welfare-led dog daycare keeps groups small and carefully matched, with plenty of enrichment, rest and one-to-one attention throughout the day. We also welcome younger dogs for puppy daycare in Attleborough through our dedicated puppy sessions.
Every new dog starts with a free daycare assessment. It's how we get to know your dog, check they feel safe and happy, and place them in the right small group. Assessments are staff-only so we can see how dogs behave without owners around — you're welcome to drop off and collect at the end.
Choose the rhythm that suits you and your dog. We offer full days and AM/PM half days, plus ad hoc daycare for days when you need extra cover. Daycare runs Monday to Saturday, 7am–6pm.
Our gentle puppy daycare sessions give younger dogs a calm, positive introduction to daycare life — building confidence, social skills and good routines from the very beginning. Learn more about puppy daycare in Norfolk.
Dogs enjoy a large indoor daycare area for play and rest, plus a safe, secure outdoor space with a 6ft-fenced perimeter for fresh air, toilet breaks and supervised outdoor play.
We keep groups small and carefully matched by size, temperament and energy. This keeps the day calm, safe and enjoyable, and means every dog gets attention and a balanced experience.
A happy dog isn't just a tired dog — it's a fulfilled one. Our days blend structured play, enrichment (sniff games, puzzles, tunnels), calm rest periods and a predictable routine, so dogs leave settled and content rather than overstimulated.
Daycare dogs get free access to our indoor heated swimming pool as part of their day (with owner permission) — a brilliant extra outlet for confidence, fitness and fun. Find out more about Swim Rootophia, our indoor dog swimming pool.
Our welfare-led daycare suits sociable dogs who enjoy company, routine and enrichment — including nervous dogs who benefit from a calm, structured environment and gentle, careful introductions. We accept many breeds and sizes, and every dog is assessed individually so we only place dogs who will be safe and happy in group care. If you're unsure whether daycare is right for your dog, the free assessment is the perfect place to start.
All dogs must complete an assessment before joining daycare. Assessments are free of charge.

We’ll carry out extra suitability checks for intact males, and dogs showing persistent humping behaviour, aggression, or unsafe social behaviour will not be accepted into group daycare.
