Dog day care – a day of adventure!
A safe, secure environment for your dog to enjoy the company of other guests and practise their social skills under constant supervision. Your dog will enjoy loads of toys, play equipment and games, plus one-on-one time with our staff (which means socialising with new humans), and of course, the comfort of cuddles. There’s no chance your dog will get bored with so much to do!
Our dog daycare services are open to small and large dog breeds, and when it comes to socialising we match dogs of an appropriate size and temperament.
Daycare is open Monday to Saturday from 8.30am to 4.30pm.
(Available at Silvan and Toolern Vale only)
Pricing from 1st Feb 2023: $36 (under 20kg), $40 (over 20kg)
(*Pricing differs according to dog size and Dogdayz location. See our pricing page or email us for a customised quote.)
The personal touch
Every activity at dog day care is overseen by professional, loving staff who attend to your dogs every need and provide constant attention throughout the day. After a morning play we have structured rest time so that your dog is ready to go again in the afternoon! Cuddles are an essential part of the service and come free of charge!
A home away from home
Our dog day care facilities offer plenty of wide open spaces for your dog to enjoy the great outdoors—but also cosy areas to rest and recharge.
Plenty of human affection while your dog is away from you too.

Daycare activities :
Orchard Runs
A crowd favourite of our daycare activities, our guests get to run and be dogs, chasing each other and dashing through our lemon orchard.
Plunge Pool
Is your dog ready to take the plunge? Our pools are a hit on a warm day and have safe access to/from the water’s edge. Smaller breeds need not fear—we have a number of paddle pools for you to splash around in!
Frisbee
A fun game of frisbee keeps dogs active and focused!
Bubble Popping & Gym Ball Herding
Almost every dog loves to chase bubbles, it makes for great photos and everyone has a ball getting involved! We also have a number of large Gym Balls on hand for dogs that love to chase, herd and score a goal!
River Swims
Available during the warmer months to dogs with proven recall, river swimming is enormous fun for dogs. Warrandyte Dogdayz have their own riverside location which is private and secure.

Leaving your dog with somebody else is an act of trust. Our commitment is to be in every way worthy of that trust, making your dog’s daycare safe and truly memorable. We pride ourselves on being amongst the very finest dog kennels and dog day care centres Melbourne has to offer.
We invite you to consider The Dogdayz Experience.
Our clients say…
“Thank-you so much to Tamika and staff at Silvan, Banjo was so well cared for. He came home soooo happy and totally exhausted after much much exercise and socialisation with his doggy pals.”
Larissa J“I just want to thank, and continue thanking all the wonderful staff at Dogdayz Toolern Vale for their continuing love and care for my furbaby, Frankie. Frankie currently does every second Tuesday with the guys here and comes home happily exhausted. I could not rate the lovely staff and this establishment more highly!”
Shae M“My dog Ollie has stayed at Dogdayz Silvan and Warrandyte and always seems happy and nicely tired after his stays there. I love that they have access to outdoors, and I really can’t imagine how any kennel wouldn’t allow them that (or make you pay extra for 30 minutes!).”
