Wanna Go Walkies is a doggy day care and walking service based in Caulfield, offering quality time in a home environment for your best mate.

Welcome to Wanna Go Walkies

We specialise in exclusive, small-group, off-lead adventures tailored for small to medium-sized breeds that thrive in a calmer, more personal setting.

From sandy paws at the beach to leafy trails in the park, our daily off-lead adventures give your dog the physical exercise and social enrichment they crave. Because we keep our packs small, your fur baby gets the individual attention and care they deserve in a loving, home-based environment.

What people are saying…

  • Boston Terrier running on grass

    Gavin and Dorothy

    “Sending Dorothy to Chris has been the single best decision I've made since getting her. He's a natural with all of the dogs, and my dog absolutely loves spending time with his pack! This morning I dropped pup off, and she could barely contain her excitement when she realised where she was going. She comes home COMPLETELY exhausted after a day with Chris.”

  • French bulldog standing on a rock at the beach with a blue sky background.

    Lucy and Birdie

    “My Frenchie has been going to daycare with Chris for two years, and it was the best decision to enrol her! She is always excited to arrive and doesn’t want to leave in the evening! She has made great doggie friends and comes home exhausted and happy. Chris takes great care of all the dogs and loves them like his own. I love receiving updates during the day and hearing about their adventures.”

  • Brown curly-haired dog sitting on green grass, looking up with open mouth.

    Ray and Shilo

    “My dog was there with Chris since he was 18 months old. My dog loves Chris as family. He is very kind to every dog. I’m glad we have Chris to be my doggy daycare. Took a lot of pictures and shared to let us know my dog happy to be with Chris.”

  • Golden Retriever on a sandy beach with the ocean in the background.

    Jon and Toby

    “Our dog Toby has been going to daycare and sleepovers with Chris for almost 3 years now and he is the best. We have no issues going for trips because we know Chris will look after and love Toby like his own. Highly recommend!”

  • A pug with its tongue out in front of a brick wall.

    Marie and Mylo

    “Wanna go walkies is the best doggy daycare! Chris takes such good care of the dogs and my dog Mylo loves going to daycare each week! We have sent Mylo for 3 years now and he gets more excited each week we drop him off! Chris is so accommodating and so helpful at working around our work schedule!! We highly recommend Wanna Go Walkies to any dog owner!”

  • A small, fluffy dog with black and white fur standing on rocks at a beach.

    Shadi and Chico

    “I have known Chris since 2018. He has been looking after my dogs since then. I must say it is a fantastic experience. I couldn't have been happier with the service he provides. Chris is a gem and truly deserves the highest praise. He provides top-notch care, and my dogs couldn't have been happier. I feel fortunate to have found such a responsible and dedicated pet sitter.“

  • Small dog standing on grass in a park with trees in the background.

    Dara and Fergus

    “Chris treats Fergus like he is his own, and I trust him implicitly with his care. The attentiveness he shows all of the dogs in his care is so beautiful to watch. Chris is the pack leader and the dogs simply love him as much as he does them. Chris has created a beautiful community with the dogs and their owners, I am so grateful to Chris and the way he loves and looks after Fergus.”

    Sophie and Frankie

    “Couldn’t recommend Chris enough! He has been caring for our dog for nearly 3 years now, and I don’t know what we would do without him. He cares for her so wonderfully and fosters a great environment among the dogs, Our pup gets so excited every time he comes to pick her up. Thanks again for all your work over the years Chris! We are so lucky to have you.”

  • A brown dog holding a red bone-shaped toy with paw prints, standing on a patio with potted plants in the background.

    James and Walter

    "Couldn't recommend Chris highly enough. We needed our Vizsla pup looked after very last minute one day. Chris responded quickly and we got our high energy pup back completely exhausted which was a bonus for us. Walter has loved going back to Chris so would definitely recommend his care if you're in need of a sitter."

  • Black French Bulldog standing on grass in a park, with trees in the background.

    Peter and Louis

    “Chris has taken care of my Frenchie, Louis, on numerous occasions over the past few years. He goes above and beyond in caring for my Louis. Daily updates with pics are sent and Chris’ ability to both pick up and deliver Louis home safe makes him a standout. Further to this, Chris displays a true love for dogs and I have no hesitation in recommending him.”
