    If you’ve looked into animal care courses, you’ve probably noticed a common theme:

    So many people want to work with dogs, but they cannot get their foot in the door without experience. At the same time, most workplaces cannot offer training to complete beginners.

    This course exists to bridge that gap. Our Dog Daycare Attendant Course gives you:
    • The foundational knowledge you need before stepping into a busy daycare
    • Real world experience working with dogs in a professional setting
    • A clear understanding of safety, behaviour, body language and group dynamics
    • The confidence to apply for daycare or kennel roles with professional experience
    If you have been wanting to work with dogs but just needed someone to give you a chance to learn and gain experience, this is it.

    That’s why we made it our mission to provide the best hands-on training course in the industry

    Combining real-world experience, expert mentorship, and unmatched support to ensure every graduate is truly job-ready.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do you offer payment plans?

    At this stage, we require the deposit upfront and the balance one week prior to course commencement. If you need a structured payment arrangement, please reach out - we may be able to discuss options on a case-by-case basis.

    What is your cancellation and refund policy?

    Our cancellation and refund policy is outlined in detail on the registration form. Please review these terms carefully before enrolling, as the $500 deposit is non-refundable.

    How many students are in each intake?

    We keep group sizes small so that you receive adequate support and hands on time. Exact numbers may vary per intake, but places are always limited.

    How long do I have to complete the Daycare Attendant Course?

    The course is designed to be completed in 4 weeks. This includes approximately 2 weeks of online theory followed by 2 weeks of practical placement in daycare. However, students will have up to 90 days of access to complete the online modules if additional time is needed.

    Do I need any prior experience with dogs?

    No formal experience is required. A genuine love of dogs and willingness to learn is essential. We will teach you the rest.

    Is the online theory available by itself?

    Yes. For students who live too far from Burwood to attend placement, the online theory only option is available. Please contact us to discuss this option.

    Can this help me get a job in daycare?

    This course is designed to make you more employable. You will finish with knowledge, real experience and a clear understanding of what a daycare role involves. Graduates may be considered for suitable roles at The Dog Dazzlers and the skills are transferable to other centres.

    What if I cannot attend Monday to Friday during placement?

    Standard placement is Monday to Friday, however we understand that some students may need adjusted days or times. Please reach out and we will discuss what may be possible.
