A Typical Day at Dogs Paradise

A daycare day at Dogs Paradise is thoughtfully structured around play, rest, care and calm supervision. From the moment dogs arrive, each part of the day is designed to feel safe, balanced, and genuinely enjoyable.

A Typical Day at Dogs Paradise

A Day That Leaves Dogs Happy and Settled

Every day at Dogs Paradise follows this calm, balanced rhythm so dogs can enjoy play, companionship and stimulation while receiving the rest, structure and care they need to feel secure.

The exact experience is always adapted to the dog in front of us—because no two dogs are the same.

Your Dog’s Day at DP

08:00-09:00 — Arrivals and settling in

 Dogs are welcomed into a calm, supervised environment and given time to settle in comfortably. Any belongings are organised, dogs reconnect with familiar friends, and the shuttle completes its morning arrivals.

09:00–11:00 — Morning play and activities

The morning is often the most active part of the day. Dogs enjoy supervised play, movement, social interaction and suitable enrichment activities.

Depending on the group and the day, activities may include games, tunnels, climbing, outdoor time and forest walks—all guided by attentive supervision and matched to each dog’s needs.

11:00– 12:00 — Snack time and individual attention

Each dog enjoys a personal moment with a caregiver while having a snack or settling for a quiet break. This one-to-one time helps every dog feel seen, reassured and individually cared for.

12:00–13:30 — Rest and nap time

After a busy morning, dogs rest in comfortable, quiet spaces with soft music and dimmed lighting. This important pause helps dogs recharge, supports well-being and prevents overstimulation.

13:30–16:00 — Afternoon play and social time

The afternoon continues at a gentler pace, with calmer play, social interaction and mentally stimulating activities. Enrichment may include scent games, puzzle activities and other suitable ways to keep dogs engaged.

For dogs who still have energy to burn, a second walk or additional outdoor time may also take place.

15:30 — Shuttle departures

The shuttle begins afternoon departures for dogs traveling home this way. This helps keep the end of the day smooth, calm and well organized.

16:00–16:30 — Winding down and care

As the day winds down, dogs relax and receive any appropriate final care before going home. The focus is on helping each dog transition calmly from their day at Dogs Paradise.

16:30–18:00 — Collection time

Dogs wait in a calm, comfortable environment for their families to arrive. This creates a smooth, reassuring transition from daycare back to home life.
