Day Care

Home From Home Day Care (HBO0070)

A safe, comfortable, and enriching day with experienced dog professionals.

Our Council Licenced Home From Home Day Care service offers your dog a welcoming, family-style environment where they can relax, socialise, explore, and enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day.

Unlike large commercial day care centres, our dogs stay with experienced TLC carers in a real home environment. This allows us to provide a calmer, more personalised experience where your dog's individual needs, routine, and personality can be taken into account.

Day care is ideal for dogs whose owners work long hours, have a busy schedule, or simply want their dog to enjoy companionship and enrichment during the day.

Dogs attending day care become part of the household for the day, enjoying affection, supervision, rest periods, enrichment activities, and social interaction appropriate to their age, temperament, and needs.

For suitable dogs, day care also includes a total of up to two hours of walking throughout the day. This may be divided between walks and will be tailored to the individual dog, weather conditions, and what best suits them on that particular day.

We believe dogs need balance. While exercise is important, so are opportunities to rest, decompress, explore, and simply enjoy being part of normal daily life.

Drop Off and Collection

Owners are welcome to drop their dog off in the morning and collect them later in the day at an arranged time that is suitable with their pet care provider.

As all of our day care providers are also professional dog walkers and pet care providers, collection and drop-off times must be agreed in advance. This helps us ensure that we can provide the best possible service while working around existing walking and care commitments.

We kindly ask that all arrangements are discussed before booking so that suitable times can be agreed for both you and your day care provider.

Collection and delivery services are available at an additional charge, subject to availability and location.
