The course was incredibly well-structured and packed with valuable insights that are essential for a higher standard Dog care business.I particularly appreciated the practical approach on both the welfare of the animals and the importance of meeting legal and ethical standards.

Great course where you will learn a lot from rules and regulations to behaviour patterns and indentifying problems and solutions.

The work was always marked quickly and feedback was great in getting a better understating of the questions.

Lucy Anderson

Was nervous starting the level 3 professional day care and boarding as haven’t been in a study environment for quite some time! I am opening my own kennels. I found the course content very interesting and of course informative. Naively I didn’t think there was as much to think about; all of which now makes perfect sense. Really learnt so much that will be useful as my journey to opening continues. Would definitely recommend and the tutors very helpful if you have a wee waiver in the process! Many thanks IMDT 😊

L Flanagan

I found this very interesting and informative - it also really helped when applying for my boarding licence - would highly recommend anyone doing this if they are wanting to do this as a profession.

I found this a really informative course, I can't believe how much I learned.

I highly recommend this course.

Vickie

Great course, very educational and interesting, also a quality bunch of staff they are always wanting to help you be successful! thanks again team

bradley f

So informative, thought provoking and interesting. I really enjoyed the course and I’m so, so glad I took it. This will really be a huge string to my bow, when the council come to inspect my premises so I can gain a home boarding licence. (With a precious higher star rating!) It’s made me feel fully confident to extend my already successful pet sitting and dog walking business. Many thanks. Worth every penny. I’m already sure it won’t be my last course! :)

Jo Martin

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all your help

J C

I was nervous about studying again and required some support with referencing which was provided. I was given the chance to resubmit following advisory notes from the tutor before final marking. I managed to fit in the time required to complete and work full time with a busy family to look after. Really pleased I made the decision to do this and hopefully will put into practice all I've learned soon!

Great course, very informative for someone who has just moved into a new career in dog boarding and daycare and felt it important to expand my knowledge.

I am absolutely thrilled with this qualification. Thank you all so much. At 57 years old, it was a little daunting to go ‘back to school’ and a steep learning curve on setting out answers. I’m so grateful.

Good Course, I was terrified about studying on a limited timescale, 30 yrs after leaving school. You get plenty of information on how to format and reference when you start the course. The tutors are good at getting back to you. I learnt a huge amount and the knowledge I have gained, I know will be invaluable.

Nikki

Really benefitted from this course, gave direction as to where to get information required and how to present it. Would recommend to everyone who loves dogs. Thank you.

Vickie

Brilliant course, very informative, feel like I've gained alot of knowledge

Kate Fletcher

Having not been a school for a good few years and certainly never having to reference course work, I thought the course would be daunting. This wasn't the case and from start to finish the Tutor and the admin staff were supportive and answered any questions I had. The course makes you think about the service you provide and indeed learn from the course. If you are put off by coursework or the fear of not understanding - don't be. It's truly worth doing. From me to my Tutor Dave "Thank You".

Julia Dunn

Great course that you are able to learn in your own time. Highly recommend if you work in or want to start your own doggy day care or home boarding.

An extremely useful and informative course that will prove helpful for both new and those of us who have been working in the sector for a number of years. It gets to grips in a practical way with the new legislation around Day-Care and Boarding and can be carried out at a rate that fits in around already busy schedules. The tutors were very approachable, personable and of course knowledgeable.

P. Darvell

Haven’t studied for a long time so it was great to have the IMDT guidance

Having attended a few courses before, IMDT was my first choice when I decided to study for my Doggie Daycare qualification.

I passed with a great mark so thank you very much, couldn’t be happier

Yvonne

This is the first time I have done on-line training and was understandably worried about the level of support and communication IMDT would provide throughout the course. Their communication and guidance has been excellent and they always responded to any questions promptly. I found many aspects of the course both interesting and helpful. Thank you for all your help.

The course covers all of what I needed to know and more! The suggested reading materials were so informative and covered the science of how dogs learn which I found really informative.Day care licence no pending All in a all a great big 5 stars from me - great course

It is very informative and makes you think about some of things that you need to include. Tutors are very helpful and quick to respond if you need them. Excellent. Thanks to IMDT for their support with this very informative course.

Stuart Norman

A very worthwhile course to complete. Both units are very well presented with useful and relevant information whilst encouraging the participant to do their own further research. The course has a distinct focus on dog welfare which can only be a good thing and the reading material gives a deeper insight into how dogs perceive the world around them. It also thoroughly tests the participant's knowledge of the rules introduced in 2018. The tutors are very quick to respond and provided useful feedback. Thanks for an enjoyable course! Will definitely be looking at more in the future.

I chose the course with IMDT as I felt the items covered in the unit were the most appropriate option to help me in setting up my day care business. The contact with tutors was available whenever I needed it and they came back to me very quickly when I had any questions. I would recommend them to anyone considering a boarding or day care business.

Katie Hibberd

I took this course while preparing for a career change and am glad to have done so. I found the workload manageable to do alongside a full-time job, and that the level of the material was both enough to stretch and educate without being overwhelming. It certainly opened my eyes to the level of detail that you need to consider when running a daycare/boarding business, and to the nuances of dog behaviour. Responses and feedback from the IMDT were prompt, helpful and encouraging. I would certainly consider using a similar programme from the IMDT for a further education.

Jon S.

Decided to embark on this course and so delighted that I did! I have learnt so much and feel confident to get established now. Having not studied for over 15 years I need not have worried, the tutors are really supportive and the questions are broken down to aid your learning and progression.

Since starting my own business as a dog walker and home boarder I wanted to increase my knowledge base. I have completed a couple of courses with Imdt in the past few months and they have been worth every penny.

My bank manager will not be pleased to know I intend doing many more courses with Imdt in the future!

Has given me a great insight into scenarios, regulations and all relevant aspects of working with dogs.

It gave me a lot of confidence improving in my knowledge. Now I don’t want to stop and I am ready to start the 6 month course! Thank you for your tutoring and amazing course!

I found the course extremely beneficial and it will enable me to provide a higher level of care for dogs boarding with me. It is both relevant and practical covering the new regulations and behaviour / care. of dogs.

I have just completed this course and can highly recommend it; perfect for a wide cross section of people - If you are new to Day Care/Boarding it gives you a great insight into the regulations and also on canine welfare that will be beneficial in operating. If you have Canine qualifications/accreditation's already it is a brilliant top up and refresher to keep on top of your CPD and because the IMDT are on top of the latest humane Care/Training methods it keeps you ahead of the field -- The time-frame is about spot on - I logged my hours and did around 70 the course is flexible (I did around 3 hrs a day for unit 1, broken down into 1.5 hours in the morning and night, and then had a week off while work was being done at my home for unit 2 ) -- Tutor support is always available . Another great course, Thank You and Well done !!

Jon Davison

I only signed up recently for the course and already find the course content extremely relevant to my job and the new regulations, plus the support from my Tutor is excellent. 10 out of 10!
