Malvina Major Retirement Village

As we age, mobility and health issues can affect daily routines and independence. It’s natural to want to step in when a loved one faces challenges with tasks they once managed easily.

Attention Doggy Parents: Cost-effective Dog Walks Are Now Available!

Would you like your dog to get more exercise during the week while you're at work?

We're a father-and-son team setting up a new pack for small and small-friendly medium-sized dogs, offering daily walks and exercise in large fully-fenced areas starting from mid-October. We're WCC-registered dog walkers, with prices starting at $20 for daily outings (including pick-up and drop-off to your home). This way, you can give your dog exercise every day without breaking the bank, unlike costly doggy day care.

We currently have spaces available in this pack (pictured). Our excursions last up to two hours (including travel time), making it a great way to alleviate dog boredom, keep them fit, socialise them, and provide toilet breaks if they're stuck indoors. For more information, please message me (Shaun) or phone/text Peter on 021 222 9448.

We aim to be the second-best part of your dog's day – the first being when you come home, of course! :)

Peter and Shaun, WellyWags
