New Reception Centre Building

Its started!
Work on our new reception centre begins on Monday 25th October!
We are so excited for this next chapter in the history of Mrs Murrays.

If you are visiting there will be a few changes - We've been turfed out of our old reception and have set up camp in our training room at present.
There will be a few more changes to accessing reception as things progress so look out for updates as they occur.
Do allow plenty time for visiting especially if you are dropping off your pet for boarding.

We apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause

Don't worry the dogs and cats won't be affected during this time - though you may meet some frazzled office staff ;)

Exciting times ahead and we welcome you to join us on our journey

In case you missed the new plans announced at our 130th Anniversary Dance in November 2019, heres the details from a previous post :)

Phase 1 New reception centre
The concept of the new reception is to totally rebuild this area of the home - which has been in need of for some time. This will allow us to provide a better and larger more welcoming reception area, improved staff welfare facilities and move some of our other areas all under one roof.

A new two storey building incorporating:
