What does a day look like at Cavoodle & Co?
Your Cavoodle will enjoy a balance of supervised play, enrichment activities, swimming, socialisation, rest breaks & plenty of cuddles. A typical day at Cavoodle & Co. generally follows the following format:
🐾 Morning Welcome: Tail wags, sniff hellos & settling in
🐾 Play & Enrichment: Toys, games & guided social time in our secure space
🐾 Swim Time: A daily splash to build confidence & burn off energy
🐾 Rest & Relax: Cosy nap spots for recharging

Wow! You offer Swimming!?
Yes! We have a beautiful 5.2m x 2.3m salt water plunge pool. And we know swimming is one of the best activities for Cavoodles. It is low-impact, gentle on their joints & provides a full-body workout that builds strength & fitness. Beyond the physical benefits, swimming also helps with mental stimulation, it boosts confidence, relieves stress & leaves dogs feeling happy & relaxed. Most importantly, Cavoodles love the water! By offering supervised daily swims (with supplied life-jackets), we give them a safe way to burn energy & have fun, so they head home tired, content & ready for cuddles with their families!
What if my Cavoodle can be a little needy or anxious?
We absolutely understand & get it! Cavoodles are known for their affectionate nature & can sometimes feel anxious when away from their people. That’s why at Cavoodle & Co we keep our groups small, our spaces calm, & our care highly personalised. Every pup is given the time, attention & cuddles they need to feel secure & at ease. We also create structured days filled with play, enrichment, rest, & gentle socialisation, so your Cavoodle stays happily engaged rather than stressed. Our goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup isn’t just looked after, but truly cared for like one of our own Pack.
Do you offer a Dog Grooming Service?
We don’t offer full grooming, but we do provide a Wash & Blow Dry Service (bath, blow dry, brush, & finishing spritz) for an additional fee if you want your Cavoodle to go home fresh & fluffy after their day of swim & play with us.
Can you pick up and drop off my Cavoodle?
Absolutely we can! Our Cavoodle Uber service offers safe, reliable, door-to-door transport to and from Cavoodle & Co, giving busy owners total peace of mind. Our Uber Service pick up is between 7am - 8am & drop-off between 5pm - 6pm!
Can you pick up and drop off my Cavoodle?
If you’re not using our Cavoodle Uber service, you’re welcome to drop your pup off with us anytime after 8:00 am. This gives your pup a full day to settle in, play & enjoy everything Cavoodle & Co has to offer. Pick-up for your pup is available any time before 5:30 pm, giving you flexibility around your day. Whether you collect them after work or a little earlier, you’ll be greeted by a happy, relaxed Cavoodle who’s had a day filled with fun, enrichment & plenty of cuddles. We kindly ask all pick-ups are made before closing to keep our pack routine calm & consistent, so every pup ends their day on the best note possible.
How many Cavoodles are in our Pack each day?
A maximum of five Cavoodles to ensure every pup gets personalised attention & a calm, nurturing environment!
What should I bring for my Cavoodle’s day?
Just bring along your Cavoodle & any personal essentials they might need (medication, a favourite comfort item, or special dietary requirements if applicable). We’ll take care of the rest! We provide everything to make their day safe, fun, & enriching, including a variety of toys, stimulating activities, secure play spaces, fresh towels & even doggy life jackets for swim sessions. We also offer healthy treats (with your permission) & of course, endless cuddles & love. Our goal is to make sure your Cavoodle feels completely at home, so you can relax knowing they’re cared for like one of our own Pack!
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes, bookings are essential as we keep our numbers intentionally small.
By limiting the number of Cavoodles each day, we can provide the one-on-one attention, calm environment, & tailored care that make Cavoodle & Co a true boutique experience. Advance bookings also help us carefully match personalities for play time, manage swim times & ensure every pup has the space & supervision. This way, your Cavoodle enjoys a safe, happy, and enriching day & you have peace of mind knowing they’re never lost in a crowd.
What about Vaccinations?
To comply with the Domestic Animals Act, we must keep up-to-date vet records on file. This includes
🐾 A current C5 vaccination certificate
🐾 A desexing certificate for all dogs over 12 months of age
We will ask for these to be text to us before your pups first visit with us!
Will my Cavoodle be supervised at all times?
Absolutely. Your Cavoodle’s safety & wellbeing are always our number one priority. From the moment your pup arrives to the time they head home, we are there to keep a close & watchful eye on them. All play, swim times & social interactions are fully supervised to ensure every Cavoodle is safe, happy & comfortable in our care. We carefully manage group dynamics & match playmates by temperament & energy levels to ensure our Pack is happy & at ease . With our secure & safe space, small Pack sizes & attentive care, you can relax knowing your Cavoodle is in a safe & secure environment .
What if I have other questions?
We’d love to hear from you! If there’s anything you’re unsure about, from how our sessions run to special requirements for your Cavoodle, just reach out. We’re always happy to chat & make sure you feel completely comfortable before booking.
After all, your Cavoodle’s happiness (& your peace of mind) is what Cavoodle & Co is all about.
