Off-lead play in a purpose-built facility sets up dogs for an active day of balls, rope toys, ice, and treats before settling down for lunch and quiet time in cosy beds. Half-day dogs head home around 1pm, while full-day attendees are collected after 3pm, properly exercised and rested. For dogs that just need a brief run around in the morning, two-hour mini play-dates run for \$20 (as at 2026). Regular daycare pups also have access to bespoke event chaperone services and overnight minding with team members, either at home or hosted locally.
Based on Beatty Parade in Surfdale on Waiheke Island, this community-minded day care gives local dogs a structured, supervised environment to burn off energy and learn social habits alongside other island dogs. Booking is handled online in advance. Our pick on Waiheke for reliable off-lead play and flexible care when your dog needs company during the working day.
