DOGGY DAYCARE
Play, learn, and grow together!
Our day care isn’t just about dog sitting, it is about helping your dog learn key life skills and manners with group sits, gate manners, well socialised free play and heaps of cuddles. The day care teachers will provide you and your dog with a worry-free experience where they see to it that everything goes smoothly and that your pet has the best day ever! Our aspiration is to deliver the same quality that a child care offers two-legged children and their parents.
Not only do we offer a premium service for our puppy visitors, we build a support network for our pet parents to keep them involved in the experience. Our team will communicate with you about your dog’s day and any concerns and work with you to come up with solutions including one-on-one sessions or other services. Every decision we make is with your dog’s safety and happiness in mind.

Our Daily Program
From 6:30am to 6:30pm, our dogs enjoy a full day of structured fun, social play, rest, enrichment, and care designed to keep tails wagging from drop off to pick up.
- Check-in: Give us an update on your dog (and you) and any changes in their routine at home. It’s amazing how some little incident can change their day.
- Supervised free play: Interactive and fun enrichment toys and activities like ‘hide & seek’ to stimulate your dog’s problem-solving skills.
- Basic manners: gate manners, group sits or recall to assist in self-control, mental focus and reducing arousal levels during the arrivals and departures.
- Nap / Quiet time: Its lights out and doggy relaxation music for a peaceful snooze in a crate, bed or teachers lap so your pooch doesn’t get over-stimulated.
- Slower play: like ‘treasure hunts’, toys, free play with their puppy mates or extra cuddles for those a little slower to wake up.
- Toys away: a quick brush and tidy up for those who have got a bit carried away during play time. Don’t be surprised if they don’t want to leave.
Daycare is great for

- Socialisation: Dogs learn to interact safely and confidently with other dogs and people
- Exercise: Daycare helps dogs burn energy through play and activities.
- Prevents Boredom: Staying active during the day reduces destructive behavior at home.
- Assists Routine: Regular schedules help dogs feel secure and balanced.
- Separation Relief: Daycare can reduce loneliness and anxiety when owners are away.
