  • Daycare

A happy day of fun, enrichment, care & safety!

At Hedgegrove, we pride ourselves on providing quality care to all guests, including those who need care for just a day! Our passionate and experienced team have created a daycare environment for your dog to enjoy, while giving you peace of mind knowing they are in good hands.

Not just for holidays! Why Daycare?

There are many reasons why someone may choose care for the day, including, but not limited to:

  • Preparing your dog for an extended stay to get them used to the people and environment
  • Your dog is not suited to a large “pack play” daycare facility dynamic
  • Escaping extreme heat, cold, rain and other weather events
  • Renovations or maintenance at home, and are concerned about escape or injury
  • Rental inspections and need those furry friends out of the way
  • Parties or gatherings
  • Medical emergencies or recoveries
  • Training & Behavioural reasons, we are proud to have an on-site training & behaviour specialist from Canine Connect
  • Just want to break up your dog’s week and give them a fun day out!

What activities can we customise the day with?

During the day, we have multiple activities and packages to choose from for the ‘foodie fido’ or the ‘energy bunny’.

Give your dog something to smile about with our most delicious enrichment option. Our Yappy Hour treats feature a frozen toy stuffed with tasty kibble and peanut butter. It’s a fantastic way to provide extra afternoon stimulation, keep the brain busy, and even help keep those teeth clean!

For dogs with energy to burn, our Slat Mill sessions are the perfect outlet. Unlike a motorised treadmill, the Slat Mill is entirely self-powered, allowing your dog to move at their own pace while building stamina and confidence.

Every session is conducted under the expert supervision of our qualified trainers to ensure a safe, positive, and productive workout.

Once a week, we take our water-loving guests down to the heated canine pool at Noah’s Crossing Vet for a supervised swim session.

Hydrotherapy is an incredible tool for all life stages: from supporting growing puppy joints and burning energy in active dogs to providing gentle, low-impact exercise for our senior guests. It’s the perfect way to keep them moving and feeling great!

Does your dog love to follow their nose? Our Walk-About Adventures are one-on-one excursions through our beautiful local parks and reserves. These walks provide the perfect blend of physical exercise and mental stimulation, allowing your dog to explore new sights and smells beyond the retreat grounds.

Bodhi is a little dog training up for a longer stay. His first daycare day was yesterday, and he was a little bundle of nerves. He came back today and was an entirely different dog! It's all about exposure and repetition to help dogs get use to the environment ☺️
