Our whippet waits at the window for the van to arrive and is so excited when it is time to go and play. Comes back exhausted! The Scent a Barks team really look after her and make her days such fun! We find Stacey and her team very accommodating if we have to add days, have a request etc.
Dedication. Expertise. Passion.

Hi I’m Stacy, founder of Scent-a-Barks Norwich, and Mum of Toby the Poogle!
My doggy obsession started from when I was a young girl; we always had dogs in the family and I loved nothing more than looking after them. I went to university, graduated with a Business Management degree, and started working my way up in a corporate IT career, but realised something was missing… In 2016 I decided to pursue my dreams of setting up a doggy daycare business in Norwich, and I haven’t looked back since!
​
I work with a superb, qualified team who manage the daily daycare operations which frees my time up to run the business as a whole. I work in centre most days and enjoy lunch-time dog walks, so I’m very hands on!
​
I love being outdoors all day and spending my day with so many different characters. No day is the same and although it’s hard work I start and finish every day loving my job! My job keeps me pretty busy but when I’m not working I still love to be outdoors exploring with Toby!
I am proud to say that I truly love my job and as an animal lover from a young age, I was so excited to find Scent a Barks! 7 years on, I can truly say I have never been happier.
​
My life has become focussed around animals after graduating with a BSc in Animal Science and Welfare and then continuing my studies to gain an MSc in Wildlife Conservation. Day to day, I manage the care and wellbeing of all our wonderful pups and help out behind the scenes with all the admin stuff! I’ve been with Scent-a-Barks since the start and can fully say my heart is invested in the care we provide, the loving relationships we create with your pups and with yourselves as owners!
​
I have my own little pup who came to live with us 3 years ago. At the grand old age of 11, Lottie enjoys her retirement days with endless belly rubs, waddles around the woods and exploring the UK in her rucksack!
Hello, I’m Megan and I’ve always loved animals, I’m so happy I’ve found a group of girls who feel the same! I didn’t have much experience working with dogs but I’ve grown up with them and have one of my own!
​
I first saw scent-a-barks on Instagram and instantly wanted to be part of it. I got the opportunity to volunteer and gain experience, I learnt so much which lead me to becoming a staff member and then progressed to the management team!
​
I have completed pet first aid & cpr training, plus canine behaviour, which gives me confidence knowing I can fully care for your dogs! I like to make sure all the dogs are forming relationships so they have as much fun as possible and are tired for when they go home!
