St Mary's Canine Creche - Ipswich

I have been taking my dog here since December 2022 and she was a puppy at that point in time. This place has been our lifeline. It has made her become a well-adjusted dog who is socialised. The creche gives her the freedom she needs to burn off energy and interact with her friends in a safe and controlled environment. The staff are truly amazing - they’re highly knowledgeable, patient, caring and supportive. There are no other people I would ever leave her with other than this team. I trust them to handle her - I know she is a handful sometimes but they know exactly what to do to correct her behaviour and steer her in the right direction. She is so excited every time she goes there so I know she loves the team and has a really positive experience each time.

Thank you guys! I think you’re wonderful and I really hope you open up boarding facilities so we can go on holiday!!

Buddy loves coming to crèche here. He was not welcome at another local crèche as he was labelled disruptive but the staff at St Mary’s have really taken the time to get to know and understand him. He has the best time here and I know he loves going by how he howls the whole way down the driveway when we arrive and drags me through the door!

They have been looked after our crazy boarder collie for two years now. I can’t thank them enough! They are all amazing and they go above and beyond for us. No words can describe how thankful our family is for the love and care they give

Fantastic place for our new puppy. Its always a good sign when her tail is wagging and she cant wait to go in when she gets there! She has lots of fun, positive socialisation with other dogs and is knackered when she gets home! Lisa and the others are absolutely brilliant and have helped settle Daphne into creche life and she has built so much confidence. I feel very lucky to have them so close by and so does Daphne too! Thanks Lisa and everybody at St Mary's creche 🐶

Our puppy Winnie has been going to the crèche since she was 12 weeks old, and it’s the best thing we’ve ever done! All of the staff are incredible, so knowledgable, they love your dogs as much as you do! They have themed weeks and have so much fun, they make sure dogs are well hydrated, shaded, and resting enough in the summer so it’s perfect for the hot weather! Our pup loves it there so much, she never wants to come home at pick up time! It’s been amazing for socialising our pup and has helped her become such a playful, independent, friendly girl! We couldn’t recommend the crèche enough! Thank you to Lisa and her wonderful team!

Our Daxxi puppy recently started at St Mary’s Canine Creche, not only was the settling in period really easy and smooth they have been so accommodating and lovely. She’s now done a few full days and absolutely loves it, she looks happy when she leaves and loves being dropped off in the morning. 10/10 recommend, we looked at a few other places but they didn’t seem interested in the dog whereas here we know she is playing and looked after all day long whilst making new doggy & human friends, I love the fact that they share pictures of the dogs regularly so you can always see what fun you dog/pup is up to whilst they are there.

Amazing staff, really care and look after your pooch as if they were their own. They play with them,have themed weeks for the dogs to get involved with if they wish, and they even have nap time in the afternoon.
My pooch loves it here, and we don't hear a thing from him all evening as he is exhausted 😊
Keep up the great work Lisa and team

Crèche or what we call “school” has been a life saver for me & our pup Grace. With me working long days & my other half in the military, having the crèche means Grace can have a fun day too! Grace has loved school from 14 weeks, she is so well socialised now & behaves so lovely around other dogs we meet! “School” has helped grace learn the important doggy social cues, how to be independent, how to enjoy herself (and how to bark ha ha!). The team are so friendly & understanding, they get that they’re your family & they care (even when you are an overbearing dog mum lol) ! Grace cannot wait to get in, in the morning, she has made so many new friends and always comes out so happy (and sleepy!) I would deffo recommend you taking your dog / puppy along it does them wonders and helps them to be happy, social, confident puppers
