About Pets In The City Wairau Park Dog Daycare & Hotel

A dog daycare, hotel and grooming centre at 76 Ellice Road in Wairau Valley, on the North Shore, that is part of a group of five Auckland centres. The group began in Auckland in 2006. The Wairau Park centre offers dog daycare, puppy daycare, dog hotel stays, grooming and force-free training. Grooming includes a full wash, blow-out, brush, nail trim and breed cut. Dogs must pass an assessment with a senior caregiver before they join the pack. Daycare is best booked in advance through the online parent portal or the app. Dogs over 12 months old must be spayed or neutered to attend, though the website says dogs that remain safe and social may be assessed on behaviour. The centre is open seven days a week, with Saturday, Sunday and public holiday hours of 7am to 6pm. New customers get a Buy 1 Day, Get 2nd Day Free offer, according to the website.

Customers mention the grooming most often, along with the dog hotel and the staff. One owner says the daily photos and the report card after a stay are very reassuring. Another says their dog loves daycare a couple of times a week, and that staff always update them on how the dog is doing. Several owners say their dogs come home tired and ready to rest, and that they are learning social skills. The website lists a $9 a night surcharge during peak periods, including school holidays and the weeks around Christmas, as at 2026, and asks for a 30% deposit on peak bookings.
