Highgate Dog and Cat Boarding
The fashionably busy area that keeps getting better and better! Located on the Fringe of Perth’s CBD, Highgate is arguably one of the funkiest suburbs in Perth with its café strip, small bar, restaurant and all around entertainment scene. It’s definitely a suburb for the young at heart.
Its close proximity to the City and its amenities means that cars are often shunned in preference to walking everywhere. There’s a real sense of community in Highgate with residents often getting together in the morning and evenings with their pooches in the local parks.

Exercise your Dog
Looking for a suitable venue for a pooch playdate? Have a dog that likes to swim? Like the idea of having a relaxed weekend catch up with friends whilst your dog gets some much needed exercise? Or keen to burn off some calories together?! There is a myriad of dog-friendly places to take your furry friend in Highgate and its surrounds, so we thought we’d share a few of our favourites for you to enjoy:
- Jack Marks Reserve in Mount Lawley – A popular off the lead dog park, fully fenced with water fountains & doggy bowls and a dedicated doggy poop bin. The fence is only 1m high, so if you have runner and jumper then this park may not be ideal for you.
- Hammer Park in Mount Lawley – Rumour has it that local dog’s and their owners get together every Friday for a night of toasting and socialisation.
- Forrest Park in Mount Lawley – Located close to Jacks Reserve, this is one of the areas approved off the leash dog parks. Just be mindful that it can get a bit crowded so your dog may be required to where a leash during the busier times if they can’t be controlled.
If you avoid exercising your dog because you can’t control your dog in public areas you might be interested in find out more about how our dog training programs can help you with your dog’s behavioural issues.
