What do we provide?
An inviting, home feel and fun facility to assist our customers and their furfamily members.
We are a dog daycare with boarding facilities, specialising in small to medium breeds, focusing on socialisation, integration, fun and exercise.
We encourage our dogs to try new experiences, learn commands, and monitor their individual needs, providing a boutique service to our customers and community.
Four Small Paws is a place for dogs to have fun, learn, and just be a dog!
All FSP staff are fully trained and experienced to take care of your dogs, with current Pet First Aid Certificates and regular Industry Development Training.
We use the cloud based booking system ‘PetManager’.
Please register yourself and your pup’s details (home page, at bottom).
We would also like to offer all new first time clients a 25% discount for their dogs first daycare visit. Our trial day and times are:
Monday or Friday 8.30am – 1.00pm
We try to do these days where possible as they are our quieter days, so our newbies get more focused attention for their first visit. During this time, the team will introduce your pup slowly, initially to one or two dogs (who are likely to be a good mix) and we take it from there. You will be supplied with a first day report to let you know how they have gone and if there were any concerns etc. At Four Small Paws, we care about every dog in our pack, keeping them happy, safe and secure.
Following this trial if all parties are happy, you can then directly send us a booking request from the customer portal.
Your Dog’s First Day
Our Dog Care Centre Team will interview you and your dog to find out if your dog is food or toy aggressive, protective of territory or fearful of humans, followed by an evaluation of your dog in various circumstances.
