We have been taking our Dachshund Moe to Doggie Daycare since he was a pup, and now our new boy Dexter also enjoys visiting Auntie Lorraine and the rest of the fantastic staff down at Doggie Daycare. The team takes great care of our dogs - we also don't have to worry about them being in the house for too long when we go out at night after work, thanks to the drop-off service. It has also helped with their dog and human socialisation. The boys reveal their joy of visiting daycare by the wagging tails as they approach the gate. We can't recommend Doggie Daycare enough! - G & J Connolly.


Our choc lab Destiny has been a regular participant at Doggie Daycare since the age of 12 weeks. Destiny is now 4 years old, and her wonderful social skills with other dogs and adults is due to the early introduction to Doggie Daycare. The standard of care and love by all the team at Doggie Daycare is exemplary. When we rock up to Daycare, Destiny’s tail wags none stop, that’s her secret way of saying “I just love coming here.” - Robyn and Bruce Langford-Jones


Woof, my name is Skipper; I’m a four and a half year old Labrador. I’ve got a sister called Bella, she’s the same age as me but I think I’m far more grown up than she is which is why I’m writing this story. When we were puppies our mum and dad took us to puppy school. Puppy school was good cos it taught us lots of things but best of all when we left mum and dad found out about doggy day care, which is why I’m writing this story, sorry I’m repeating myself, woof.

We go to day care two days a week and just to make sure we don’t miss out, when we’re at home we mess up the yard just so mum and dad will take us back. Of course the first few times we went to day care we were a little bit scared. We were only young and were just used to being with mum and dad but Lorraine and Allan made us feel pretty special straight away and then we couldn’t wait to go back. Next we met Mandy and Tania and fell in love with them too. Actually I think they like me best of all the dogs at day care, even Bella, but I don’t tell anyone that.

We’ve got a bit of a routine when we get to day care, usually we have a walk around and say hello to our human friends and then our real friends. Now I don’t want to offend anyway by naming names but our favourites are Gracie, Chocco, Butch and Teddy, actually we’re just happy being with everyone.

Once the hellos are over we do a weather check to determine our activities for the day. On a hot day we spend the day on our beds inside, I mean who wouldn’t this place has all the dog cons – air conditioning and television - and in winter we spend the day on our beds in front of the heater and television. Woof, it’s like dog heaven. Don’t get me wrong it’s not all snoozing, we do spend time outside, there’s lots of running around and playing to do, along with sniffing and a bit of chatting, plus there’s a kennel which we like to poke our noses into, just in case anyone has left a snack inside.

One of our favourite times of year is party season. You might know it as Christmas. Santa Paws pays a visit and we have beefcake to celebrate. Our mum always makes us wear reindeer ears. We think it’s silly but we do it to make her feel good and some of our friends are made to wear them too.

Lorraine and Allen always celebrate our birthdays too.Well not just ours everyone has a party when it’s their birthday. Woof, we get a birthday card and cake to take home. I always try to sneak some of Bella’s cake but she always catches me.

Anyway don’t just take my woof for it, drop in and have a look around and I reckon you’ll love it as much as me and Bella.

With lots of love and a wagging tail, Skipper (okay and Bella).

Person Speak

Hi everyone
I just have to tell you how fabulous my person friends are here at Doggie Day Care.

My gorgeous harem of carers are just the best.  I taught them, in 4 easy lessons, just how to attend to my every need.  I even taught Tanya how to say “I love you” in dog speak.  She’s very clever.

And all my furry friends agree.  Lorraine and the crew play, laugh, run, walk and frisbee with us all day and they are so much fun.  They even give us giant iceblocks on really hot days when we’re not swimming in the water baths.

I’m exhausted when I get home at night so my person, Judii, just lets me lounge on the couch until dinner.  Life is good!
