Lauren Shepherd, October 2025

Great experience with these guys, been back several times since our first visit. Our first visit was actually my dogs very first time swimming at all, and he isn’t the bravest, but they were great at getting him comfortable and confident and he loves it! Our dog also faces lots of judgement because of his breed but the team here treat him no different which for us also means the most!


Kellie Dean, October 2025

What a great experience! The team make you feel so welcome and they work so hard to make it an enjoyable experience for the dogs. Ours absolutely loved it and they explained everything as they went along - recommend to everyone


Kay Capaldi, October 2025

Everything they do is for our dogs to enjoy themselves, and they do that in a compassionate way. Understanding that some dogs may be first time swimmers and nervous and treating them accordingly


Teresa Krysta, October 2025

Because James is so kind and patient every single time


Lisa Campbell, October 2025

Just such a joyful place and so well run. Our Lab absolutely loves it and we know she’s always in James’ safe hands.


Jamie Portch, September 2025

They are so incredibly friendly and welcoming from even before you step through the gate. I immediately knew my dog was in fantastic hands and they made sure we were involved in the whole process. As the session went on you could tell that the James and Shannon had a real passion for dogs and it was incredibly heartwarming to see


Gillian Knighton, September 2025

I have a dobermann who was very good at swimming, it took 4 sessions and James perseverance and she now swimms beautifully 😍


Michelle Savin-Jones, September 2025

My dog absolutely loves his swims with James. We are so lucky to have this in our doorstep.


Anna Childs, September 2025

The location is great. Away from roads, adequate parking and there's refreshments and toilets on site.

James is great with the dogs, giving them individual attention and ensuring all doggies get plenty of time to swim , and supporting those who are less confident. Sharing your slot helps affordability. Staff are very friendly. Love it!


Emily Simpson, September 2025

Michele Taylor, September 2025

Great staff and wonderful experience for our dog.


Jamie Bryant, August 2025

James and his team are phenomenal they take so much care and love with all the dogs they swim with. Our dog used to hate water, few minutes of being in the pool with James and now we can't get him out. Given our dog so much enrichment.


Eleanor Mather, August 2025

Excellent service provided by staff who care deeply, are warm and friendly and show so much love to the dogs


Rachael Hampshire, August 2025

Our GSD absolutely loves going swimming at canine dip! From the minute we drive down the drive he squeals and doesn’t stop till we are there. He is also the last dog out of the pool and won’t leave till everyone else does! So glad we found canine dip!


Becky Lee-Jakes, August 2025

James is so good with my nervous dog and she now loves going for her swims.

Sheena Sumners, August 2025

Jamie is so patient with both of my labs especially as one is nervous of the water. Both dogs love him and now enjoy their sessions.


Jennifer Hamilton, August 2025

The staff are so friendly and understanding, since the xl bully ban we’ve struggled with some businesses allowing our dog at all so we were really grateful they accepted Ronnie, they gave him so much love and attention and it’s one of the best things we’ve done with him he really enjoys it and is knackered by the end of the session! Great company!

Our dog loved it, our daughters' dog was nervous initially but the staff were generous with their encouragement and praise and he had a great swim too. (we did it first in Norfolk and prayed that there would be a Franchise near to our home) Well done to the Team at Sevenoaks, and the café at the venue was lovely to visit too!

What a wonderful place !!! The experience is great from start to finish. Lovely setting, lovely staff, dog loved it and I did too( i got in and had an amazing experience with my dog jumping in towards me and swimming around me ), went to very nearby cafe afterwards, live music too.

All perfect, got a few things on atm but going again soon.


Louise Knight, August 2025

So much fun! James was brilliant - caring for the dogs and holding them if they were nervous. There were plenty of toys in the pool. The enclosure was secure and safe. Dog safety was always paramount, but not at the expense of FUN for dogs and hoomans alike. Inexpensive party fun for doggies. Just brilliant!


Lyndsi Hurley, August 2025

Jamie and the team make the whole process smooth and enjoyable.

It’s been an asset locally for us dog owners. The dogs love it and it’s helped as part of a diet plan for my goldie who needed to lose some of his tubby tummy!

Amazing team, great service and just alot of fun.


Joanna Evans, August 2025

Hands down the loveliest, most helpful canine swimming company.


Teresa Krysta, August 2025

So very very patient with my dog and so encouraging. Barney is a bit worried each time but is never forced to swim. He always ends his session very happy and going in to the water on his own. It brings me to tears nearly. He is so gently managed by James and has learnt to trust him and play with him.


Melanie Phillips, August 2025

Amazing three sessions helping Darcy realise she can swim. James and the team extremely patient and will book again, despite being 4.5 hour journey, it was more than worth it


Joanne Allen, August 2025

A great place too take dogs swimming. Someone in the pool to keep your dog safe and its so much fun

Fantastic place to bring your dog for swimming fun! Clean safe and enclosed, great staff who actually teach dogs to swim! Highly recommend


Hayley Williams, August 2025

Hattie absolutely loved swimming at Dip and Dive Sevenoaks. A lovely big pool which caters for dog pool parties or solo swims. Owners can join them in the water too making it a wonderful experience.


Caroline Every, August 2025

I took Gunther initially to help build him up following an illness and he wasn't too sure about getting in. James was so encouraging and kind with him that by the end of the session Gunther was happily running in. I have continued to take him as often as I can as he really loves it now and I was very touched when we turned up following his birthday and Happy Birthday banners had been hung around the pool. Both Gunther and I really look forward to our sessions


Linda Wolak, August 2025

Have taken Bart my Spaniel to Dip and Dive in Sevenoaks. He absolutely loved it, really enjoyed himself, as did us hoomans!
