Four ways we can help
Every new dog starts with a free meet & greet, so we can check we're the right fit — for them and for you. we only accept doggos from a singel dog parent/family at one time for that extra special attention
Home boarding
Overnight stays in our home, not a kennel block. Sofa, and Bed privileges negotiable, bedtime biscuit non-negotiable. Daily photo updates included.
£28 / nightDog walking
Solo or small-group (max 3 wagging tails) walks on moorland, woodland and beach routes. Towel-down and fresh water before we leave, every time.
£14 / hour walkHome visits
For doggos who'd rather stay put. Feeding, toilet break, medication if needed, and twenty minutes of fuss in their own territory.
£10 / 30-min visitA daycare day, hour by hour
Dogs like routine, don't we all. Here's what a typical day looks like.
Drop-off & sniff-around
Settling in, garden time, and the important business of saying hello.
Morning walk
The big one — woods, moor or beach depending on the group and the weather.
Lunch & quiet time
Food for those who have it, naps for everyone. Photos sent to owners.
Afternoon walk & play
A shorter route, then games, toys a plenty.
Wind-down & home
Brushed, towel-dried if needed, and handed back gently knackered.
Hello, we are Debbie and Nick
Moor Paws started the way most good dog businesses do: with one rescue Labrador, then another, then the dawning realisation that the best part of every day was the bit with the dogs in it.
We have volunteered with Labrador Rescue for years, helping rehome dogs across the UK, as well as being involved with the local Scarborough Dog Training Club, so we have handled everything from bombproof old gents to nervous youngsters who need the world introduced slowly. That experience shapes how we do things here: small groups, careful matching, and everyone goes at their own pace.
We're licensed by the local authority, fully insured, canine first aid trained, and based on the edge of the North York Moors — which means the walks are genuinely good ones.
Good to know before you book
The unglamorous details that matter — because trusting someone with your dog should never be a leap of faith.
Licensed & inspected
Boarding and daycare are run under a local authority animal activities licence (no. [XXXX]), inspected and displayed as required in England.
Insured for care, custody & control
Full public liability cover plus care, custody and control insurance for every dog we look after. Documents available on request.
Vaccinations & meet & greets
All dogs need up-to-date vaccinations (or titre test by agreement) and a free meet & greet before their first stay, so groups stay safe and happy.
A proper written agreement
Every booking is covered by a clear service agreement — what we provide, what happens in an emergency, and how your information is handled.
From the humans
(The dogs were asked for comment but mostly wagged.)
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾“Bella drags me to the door on daycare mornings. I try not to take it personally.”
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾“Our nervous rescue boy stayed for a week. He came home calmer than when he left. We did not.”
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾“The daily photos are better than the ones I take. Slightly annoying. Highly recommended.”
Start with a free meet & greet
No obligation, no charge — just a cuppa for you and a sniff-around for them. We'll talk through your dog's routine, quirks and favourite things, and make sure we're the right fit before anything is booked.
