Pet care that knows Southport
Southport is the Coast’s business and civic heart — Griffith University, Australia Fair, the hospitals and the Broadwater Parklands foreshore. It’s dense, central and busy, with professionals, students and investors. Our police-checked local sitters know the foreshore walks and the off-leash parks, so your pet’s routine never skips a beat while you’re away.
Southport pets live at the busy heart of the Coast — unit blocks and old Queenslanders side by side, Griffith students and hospital shift workers, and the Broadwater as the great equaliser. The foreshore parklands give every dog kilometres of flat, breezy walking, with pelicans and boat ramps for scenery.
Every service, right here in Southport
Overnight stays
Overnight stays suit Southport’s shift-working households — your dog keeps Broadwater walks in the routine while you work nights or travel.
Dog daycare
Daycare pairs foreshore exercise with Musgrave Park’s fenced run and pond cool-offs — then a rested dog home before the evening rush.
Dog walking
Walks own the Broadwater Parklands — flat kilometres of foreshore path, leashed the whole way, with Musgrave Park for the off-leash finish.
Home visits
Home visits work for the unit blocks around Australia Fair and Queen Street Village — cats, small dogs and the pets of anyone on hospital rosters.
Local sitters who know the area
- Musgrave Park — fenced off-leash area with agility gear, shelter and ponds dogs use to cool off (dogs leashed outside the off-leash zone; none around the signed lake)
- Broadwater Parklands — kilometres of leashed foreshore walking along the Broadwater (no off-leash area, but a beautiful walk)
The Spit off-leash dog beach, a short drive north
Your sitter knows where to go in an emergency: Green Cross Vets Southport at Queen Street Village.
A Southport sitter’s day leans on the Broadwater — a long leashed foreshore walk through the Parklands while the rowers are out, then over to Musgrave Park’s fenced area for off-leash time, where the ponds do good service as summer cool-off spots. Afternoons flex around shift-work households; unusual hours are more the rule here than the exception.
