  • Extra Goodies & Activities

Looking for something a little extra special? We offer numerous extras to suit most of our guests’ needs…

At Hedgegrove, we know that no two dogs are the same. Some are athletes, some are social butterflies, and some just really want a snack. That’s why we’ve created a “Choose Your Own Adventure” Menu. Whether your dog needs to burn off energy, splash in the water, or just enjoy a quiet one-on-one stroll, you can customise their stay to be exactly what they need.

Yappy Hour

Give your pet a delicious treat-filled frozen puzzle chew in the afternoons! A great option to add extra afternoon enrichment and stimulation, and assist in cleaning K9 teeth.

Available any or every day of your pet’s visit.

$5 each

Spa Treatment

We have our warm hydro bath on standby to give your dog the spa treatment before being reunited with you. Your dog will come home clean as a whistle using high-quality, skin-sensitive shampoos and conditioners.

Ears and eye cleans (when possible) are included in the service. Complimentary bathing is offered to guests holidaying for more than 5 days. Not available on Public holidays.

Price depends on the dog’s size and coat length.

Meaty Muffins

Hedgegrove is excited to offer our doggy guests a delicious afternoon snack from The Pet Butcher.

The Chicken & Vegetable Muffins are a real hit!

Available any or every day of your pet’s visit.

$6 each

Training and self-improvement

Doggy Dayschool

$108 per booking

Are you struggling with training? Want some new skills? Is your dog an energetic brainiac who needs more? Then you are in luck! Hedgegrove is proud to be one of the only pet accommodation facilities with on-site training and behaviour specialists.

Canine Connect’s Doggy Dayschool programs are fantastic and available to our guests. Each Doggy Dayschool student spends three individual training sessions over the day, with a report card (with photos) sent to you and uploaded to Canine Connect’s social platforms daily! Programs can be tailored to suit the dog’s or the owner’s needs and goals.

Available by appointment only, subject to the trainers’ availability. Please contact Canine Connect to find out availability.

Trainer Time

$49 per session

Due to popular demand, the fantastic trainers from Canine Connect are now offering training sessions for our boarding and daycare guests! No need to book in advance, speak with our reception staff on check-in. A report card will be created for you to see at the end of their holiday.

The trainers can work on many areas with your pooch, including:

  • Manners
  • Obedience training
  • Walking skills
  • Trick training
  • Fun and games
  • Confidence-building and exposure
  • And more!

An excellent enrichment addition for your dog’s holiday!

Our team endeavours to capture some of these adventures and post them on our social media platforms whenever possible. Check our ‘stories’ on Facebook and Instagram.

Paws & Play

$30 – $39 per session

$48.70 – $60 per session for doubles

Play time is a must at Hedgegrove, but some of our doggy guests need that little bit more!

The ‘Paws & Play’ options give your pooch extra one-on-one attention so that it can make the most of its day.

Some of the possible activities include;

  • Tackling our speciality obstacle course
  • Sensory ‘sniffari’ exploring the grounds and activating those inquisitive noses
  • Puppy pool time for those extra warm days and water lovers
  • Playpen fun and games, chasey, tug, fetch, the works!

Exercise & Excursions

Walk-about Adventures

$72 Single Dog
$108 Two Dogs

Tap into your dog’s inner adventurer by giving them a Walk-About Adventure! Walk-abouts are one-on-one trips to local areas, reserves, and parks. Each session always has two people present, one of whom is a qualified trainer through Canine Connect, to ensure maximum safety.

Each adventure lasts 30-45 minutes, with plenty of time to sniff, pee on things, have cuddles, and enjoy the sights and sounds of our community.

Each participant will receive a report card from their Walk-About session, including photos, and will be featured on our Instagram Facebook Stories.

Available Tuesdays and Fridays each week. Discounts apply for two dogs.

Hydrotherapy at Noah’s Crossing

$119 per session

We have teamed up with our friends at Noah’s Crossing Veterinary Clinic to offer our guests excursions to their popular Hydrotherapy Pool.

Your dog will jump into the Hedgegrove Taxi and head for a fun swim with their qualified hydro-therapist.

Great for growing bones, ageing bones, energetic dogs, low-impact exercise requirements, and more.

Like Doggy Dayschool, each dog receives a report card with some notes from the Hydro-therapist at the end of the day.

Available on Mondays & Wednesdays. Limited spots are available.

Slat Mill Sessions

$38 for
2x 10-minute sessions

Help your high-energy dog burn off steam with our Slat Mill Sessions. A slat mill is a safe, dog-powered treadmill designed specifically for dogs who need an outlet for their energy. Perfect for adult dogs who love to run, each session is structured to give them the physical workout they crave without the risks of overexercising on hard surfaces.

Each booking includes 2x 10-minute runs, with rest breaks in between to keep your dog comfortable and happy. It’s a controlled, supervised way to let your dog work out both body and mind, leaving them calmer, more balanced, and satisfied.

Discuss Slat Mill availability when you book your boarding.

Unsurprisingly, Easter is one of our busiest times of the year. To ensure everything runs smoothly, please take a moment to read through our weekend updates.

𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗟𝗼𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀

Thursday is a high-traffic day. While we try to run smoothly, we never rush a drop-off. We ask for your patience during check-in as there may be a short wait. We want to ensure every animal starts their Hedgegrove vacation off right.

𝗩𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 & 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀

To ensure a smooth drop-off, make sure to bring the required vaccination records with you. We suggest keeping a photo of your pets' vaccination records on your phone so you're never without them!

Ensure all necessary medications are clearly labelled, and directions are given to staff at drop-off.

𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀

Our hours are strictly for pre-booked drop-offs and collections only. We will not be open to the general public for enquiries or tours during this period so that we can focus entirely on our guests.

Thursday: Open until midday
Friday: Closed
Saturday: Closed
Sunday: Closed
Monday: 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Important: Our office hours are strictly enforced. To avoid out-of-office fees, please ensure you arrive within these listed windows.

Thank you for your cooperation and for trusting us with your best friends this Easter.
