Pet care that knows Burleigh Heads
Burleigh Heads is beachside Gold Coast at its best — the headland, the national park, the surf break and a walkable village of cafes. It’s a suburb of active dogs and active owners. Our police-checked sitters live locally and know which trails and beaches suit which dogs, so when you travel, your pet keeps their routine — and their daily beach fix.
Burleigh’s dogs live an enviable split life — surf-side mornings on the Esplanade lawns, shady afternoons under the Norfolk pines, and weekend crowds to practise their manners on. Housing runs from old beach houses up the Hill to apartments near James Street, with Tallebudgera Creek just over the headland for calmer water.
Every service, right here in Burleigh Heads
Overnight stays
Overnight stays keep beach dogs in their element — a sitter’s home close enough that the morning Esplanade walk and creek swims stay on the schedule.
Dog daycare
Burleigh daycare runs on beach hours: early sand time at Tallebudgera Dog Beach before the heat, then quiet, cool afternoons out of the sun.
Dog walking
Walks trace the Esplanade and Burleigh Hill lawns on-leash, or head south over the creek for off-leash beach time — your dog’s fitness sets the route.
Home visits
Home visits cover the apartment pockets near James Street — cats, small dogs and seniors who prefer their own bed to a busy beach.
Local sitters who know the area
- Burleigh Lake Park — a large off-leash dog exercise area just inland in Burleigh Waters
- Burleigh Hill & the Esplanade — the famous lawns and beachfront strip beneath the headland — leashed walks with surf views (dogs aren’t permitted inside the national park itself)
Tallebudgera Dog Beach, just south across Tallebudgera Creek — an off-leash dog beach with views back to the Burleigh headland
Your sitter knows where to go in an emergency: Vetcall Burleigh and The Vet Collective on Lemana Lane.
A Burleigh sitter’s day starts before the crowds — an early leashed walk along the Esplanade under the pines, then across to Tallebudgera Dog Beach on the creek’s southern side for off-leash sand time. Summer middays are for shade; late afternoon might mean the lawns at Burleigh Point, watching the surf from outside the national park boundary.
