Dog daycare centre in Cheltenham Melbourne

Activity Based

Our days are designed to fulfil your pup’s needs, and packed with enriching activities. Think of indoor agility, nose work, sharpening obedience skills, fun games, special days, and water and sand play.

These activities are shown to increase dogs’ confidence, agility, and engagement while fostering socialisation and encouraging healthy play.

Structured Days

Structured days prioritise not only socialisation but also essential periods of rest and tranquillity. Just like humans, dogs can become overstimulated and tired. That's why we dim the lights, cue soothing music, and provide cozy blankets for peaceful nap times. We have vinyl waterproof orthopedic grade beds and lots of blankets that get cleaned daily.

Our daycare program is crafted with play, rest, and enrichment in mind. We have created our facilities for your pup’s enjoyment and safety, and they will be under our supervision around the clock.
