Our Favourite Things to Do

Dog Adventures

Adventure walks for big or small!

We'll collect your pooch in our specially designed adventure van, grab some furiends and hit one of Dunedin's stunning beaches, forests or trails! Your best friend will sniff, swim & run for just over an hour on their adventure, then have their paws polished & be dropped back home happier than ever.

$37 for one dog
+ $20 for an additional dog

*Adventures are at least 1 hour with pick up & drop off either side

Doggy Day Care

Woofers that need more than an adventure!

We work out a time that suits you, come collect your woofer in our specially designed adventure van and take them on a couple of our adventures with the pack. When they're all tired out they come back to our home to snooze & play with some other furiends on Doggy Day Care until it's time to be dropped back to your house.

$60 for one dog
+ $20 for an additional dog

*Pick up & drop offs are between 8am & 5pm

Puppy Visits

For the wee nippers in our lives!

We all know how hard it is leaving your new best friend at home, all snuggly & cute! That's why we do Puppy Visits! We drop in and check on your new addition, do some basic training and go on short leash walks until you're comfortable for them to join one of our packs and come out on some adventures.

$30 for 30 minutes
+ $15 for an additional 20 minutes

*Puppy visits are between 8am and 5pm

HELLO, I’M ELLEN!

A professional dog lover since birth

It's a dream to follow my passion for our four legged friends and to start Woofers 3 years ago here in Dunedin. A premium adventure pet care business.

I've been lucky enough to have dogs throughout my life, from raising 5 day old puppies we rescued in a ditch as a child, to having volunteered at SPCA after University. I am constantly upskilling in dog training and behaviour which I love putting into practice.

There's nothing more rewarding to me than seeing a happy pooch and some of the happiest faces I've seen have been out sniffing, swimming and running on adventures.

I'd love to meet your best furiend and have them join the Woofers family!

Our friends at SPCA

We think what SPCA does for animals in New Zealand can't be commended enough! That's why we are an official SPCA Community Supporter, donating each month from the money Woofers makes from adventures. You can be assured every time your pooch is out having fun with us you're also helping a less fortunate one.

SPCA has been protecting NZ animals for over 140 years who are sick, injured, neglected, abused or simply abandoned. For more info on how you can help SPCA click here.

Meet Sky

Our beautiful, goofy, girl! We adopted Sky when she was 11 years old (a little old lady in dog years). She's been the best addition to our family, full of love laughs and surprises!

She was one of the inspirations for starting Woofers so it only seemed right for her to feature on the website. You can see her as a puppy caricature in the original Woofers logo.

A best friend, in our hearts forever.

Some of our regulars

Bear

Ellen Provides a friendly, hassle-free and easy going service that my dog can’t seem to get enough of! Can’t recommend enough!

Josh Houlton (Bear's Dad)

Pongo

Woofers Walking is amazing! We have used them daily over the past year. My dogs absolutely adore them and are always so excited for them to arrive! We have a Dalmatian with separation anxiety and a rescue dog and they are so confident with Woofers Walking! We would be lost without them, thank you!

Laura Bennett (Pongo's Mum)

Luna

We love when Luna spends her day with Woofers Walking! She gets to socialize with other dogs and go on adventures with them which has been so good for her confidence. We absolutely love seeing what she gets up to on your Instagram too. She also comes home a very happy and tired puppy which is an added bonus!

Ashley Cole (Luna's Mum)

Ralph

Ellen is extremely reliable, friendly and my dog loves her! I happily recommend Woofers Walking to everyone/anyone looking for an excellent service!

Dee Kalila (Ralph's Mum)

Yani

Elle helped me at very short notice this week after an accident. Much appreciated and highly recommended!

Cyndi Lowrie (Yani's Mum)

Riley

I use woofers walking Monday to Friday every week! Riley just loves hearing every morning that his friend will be by while I'm at work! I love the pics from his adventure walks and just a great service all around!

Marie Oliver (Riley's Mum)

SaffIE

We have known Elle and Woofers Walking since moving to Dunedin two years ago. Both our Labs absolutely love going on adventure walks with her during the week and we know they are always safe in her care. I don't know what we would do without Elle and Woofers Walking, she's awesome!

Stuart Slade (Saffie's Dad)

Daisy & Bowie

Elle is a regular delight in the lives of my Shelties, Bowie and Daisy. They greet her with love & excitement and come back so happy, having clearly had a brilliant time with her! They also then sleep for most of the rest of the day, which really helps me as I work from home a lot. Elle is completely reliable and trustworthy!
