Why The Dog Social is Every Pup’s Favourite Hangout in Manly

If you’ve got a four-legged friend and live on the Northern Beaches, chances are you’ve heard about The Dog Social—and for good reason. Nestled in the heart of Manly, this locally-owned dog grooming and daycare centre has quickly become a go-to destination for dogs and their humans who value quality care, community, and wagging tails.
Whether your pup is due for a fresh groom, needs a place to socialise while you’re out, or simply deserves a bit of pampering, The Dog Social is the place to be.
✂️ Grooming with Heart (and Skill)
At The Dog Social, grooming is more than just a trim and a wash. It’s a tailored experience that puts your dog’s comfort and health first. From nail clipping and ear cleaning to stylish breed cuts and deshedding, their trained groomers offer professional care with a calm, gentle approach.
Small to medium dogs are especially well looked after, with services designed to keep them clean, healthy and oh-so-huggable.
🐕 Doggy Daycare with a Local Touch
Not all dog daycares are created equal. The Dog Social offers a boutique-style daycare service exclusively for dogs under 15kg. It’s a safe, supervised space where your dog can play, rest, and socialise with other friendly pups while you’re busy at work or running errands.
With a strong focus on individual attention, it’s the ideal option for dogs who need a bit more TLC than a large-scale daycare can offer.
🦴 Aussie Brands, Local Products
While you’re dropping off your pup or waiting for their spa session to finish, take a browse through their boutique retail space. The Dog Social proudly supports Aussie pet brands like EzyDog, Blackdog, DOOG, and Kong.
From leads and harnesses to healthy treats and enrichment toys, you’ll find only the best gear for your best mate.
