Private Dog Daycare in Ararat β Peaceful, Safe, and Stress-Free
Not every dog thrives in noisy group doggy daycare. At Plumtree Kennels and Cattery, we offer something different:
 A calm, rural setting with private indoor/outdoor runs for dogs who need space, rest, and gentle supervision - no group mixing, ever.
Whether your dog is elderly, recovering from surgery, or just enjoys their own space, our individual daycare program gives them the attention and peace they deserve.
πΎ What Makes Our Daycare Different?
β
 Private Indoor/Outdoor Day Runs
Each dog has their own fully enclosed space, with an indoor pen and a secure outdoor run where they can stretch, sniff, and nap in the sun.
β
 Zero Group Contact
We do not mix dogs from different households. This ensures a calm, safe, and hygienic environment - especially important for reactive or shy pets.
β
 Beautiful Countryside Location
Located just outside Ararat, your dog will be surrounded by fresh air, birdsong, and rural quiet - a world away from busy city daycares.
β
