What is Doggy Daycare?
Doggy Daycare is supervised daytime care for dogs who benefit from activity, companionship and a consistent routine while their owners are away.
At Pet Resorts Australia, dogs can enjoy a structured day of play, exercise, enrichment and rest, supported by our experienced Pet Nannies. Each day is designed to help dogs stay engaged, comfortable and cared for until it is time to go home.
Full Day & Half Day Options
Choose a full day or a four-hour half day, depending on what suits your dog best. Half days can be ideal for younger or older dogs, or those still building confidence in group care. Drop-off and pick-up times are confirmed with your resort after booking.
Regular daycare helps dogs settle into a familiar routine, build confidence and enjoy positive social time with their Pet Nannies and doggy pals. For more regular visits, our 10-pack gives you 10 daycare days for the price of 9.

Our Doggy Daycare Experience
Matched Playgroups
Our Pet Nannies take time to understand each dog’s personality, confidence and play style before introducing them to a playgroup. Beyond breed, age, gender and size - we consider body language, energy levels and social preferences to help match dogs with suitable companions and keep interactions positive and comfortable.
Personalised Care Notes
We keep care notes from each visit so our Pet Nannies can build on what we learn about your dog over time. This helps us remember their preferences, favourite playmates and any important care considerations, creating a more familiar and personalised daycare experience.
Trained Care
Our Pet Nannies are trained in canine behaviour, pet first aid, incident response care and everyday pet care. This supports thoughtful supervision throughout the day, including play, enrichment, rest and optional guest services, with your dog’s comfort and wellbeing always in mind.

Is Doggy Daycare Right for My Dog?
Some dogs love active group play, while others are happier with quieter companions, more one-on-one attention or private daycare. What's best for your family dog depends on their health, age, temperament, energy levels, confidence and individual care needs. The right daycare experience should match your dog’s personality, routine and comfort level.
Doggy Daycare May Suit Dogs Who:
- Enjoy activity, engagement and being around people or other dogs.
- Benefit from a more active routine while their owner is away.
- Need an outlet for energy and mental stimulation during the day.
- Are comfortable in a structured group-care environment.
- Would benefit from regular daytime care around work or family commitments.
Your Dog May Need Additional Consideration If They:
- Have medical, mobility or medication requirements.
- Are nervous, reactive or still building confidence.
- Have behavioural needs that should be discussed before enrolment.
- Are not up to date with required vaccinations or health requirements.
