Dogs want to play!

Dogs want to play, run, socialise, meet other dogs, sniff each others’ butts and have fun!! Some of them are divas, others princesses, then there’s the shy ones who tend to stick close to mummy, the over the top ones who need to let everybody know they have arrived and of course the older ones who have seen it all before and just want to meet some other older ones and do the rounds or have a really, really good lie down and a yawn here and there. Your dog/s can do all of this and more at Paws Dog Daycare!

Why Choose Paws Dog Day Care?

Working long hours? Busy with the kids? Dogs enjoy companionship with other dogs just as much as with us humans. Leaving them all alone whilst their humans are at work for generally most of the day leaves them either bored looking to get up to mischief or otherwise sleeping all day and hanging out until you come home to have some cuddles and play. In the meantime, you’re exhausted, the kids have homework and you have to take the dog for a walk otherwise he will be at you for most of the night. Imagine your delight picking him or her up from day care and they are totally exhausted. Paws Dog Day Care provides your dog with another family environment where they can safely have lots of fun, love and cuddles while they’re away from their proper family.

Cage Free

At Paws Dog Daycare, we prioritise your dog’s well-being and provide a force-free and cage-free environment.

Convenient Hours

We understand that life can be hectic, which is why we offer convenient hours to accommodate your busy schedule.

Limited Number of Dogs

We believe each dog deserves equal attention and care and limit the number of dogs in our centre at any given time.

Police Checked Carers

Our dog carers are police checked rigorously vetted to guarantee a safe service that gives you and your dog peace of mind.

Spacious Facilities

Our facilities cater to all dogs! Active dogs have plenty of space to play and explore, while those who prefer a quieter environment can enjoy dedicated calm areas.

We place dogs together based on their temperament and energy levels, not just their physical size. This helps ensure that all interactions are positive and safe.

Yappy Hour

Treat your dog with an enriching mid-day snack consisting of a kong filled with treats (peanut butter, puree, chicken, etc).

Dogs are given their lunches separately and a slow feeder bowl is used for those who just want to wolf it down and get back to play; unfortunately for them they also have to wait a good 15mins before they are allowed back in with all the others to give their stomach a chance to begin digesting.

Our Priority

Clean and safe is our priority.

If you ask the staff and helpers, Paws Dog Day care is home to more mops, buckets, disinfectants, and cleaning products than actual dogs. We believe that’s exactly the way it should be. Dog day care is an inherently messy endeavour. We pride ourselves on maintaining a clean and sanitary facility for the protection and safety of all our four-legged friends.

Our facilities undergo regularly scheduled intensive cleans that guarantee all areas and surfaces are thoroughly sanitised.

All equipment and toys, tugs, etc are cleaned and sanitised each night in readiness for the following morning’s bunch of dogs to raid.
