Safe Paws

Stirling, Stirling

Safe Paws provides dog daycare and training in Stirling, alongside a wider pet-care service. Founder Shirley Macmillan began the business in 2002 and opened the daycare centre in 2010, developing a setting designed around supervised care and dogs' different needs. The council-licensed centre has around 9,000 square feet of space, with live cameras that owners can view. Features include sealed rubber flooring, comfortable rest areas and a puppy nursery. Puppy daycare and training classes sit alongside the adult daycare service, with experienced trainers involved in the operation. Other services include dog walking, home boarding and cat feeding in Stirling and the surrounding area. A Saturday dog-park community provides space for dogs to play while owners meet over coffee. Shirley's professional development includes dog-training courses and work on daycare standards, reflecting the business's focus on both care and handling.
