What a day at Kobe Pet looks like

No black box. You know what your dog is doing throughout the day, and you see it all happen in the app.

07:30 Arrival and socialising

They arrive, meet the group, and you know about it.

New dogs go through a short assessment with the team: temperament, energy, how comfortable they are in the space. Then they join the group, with play matched to each dog's size and energy.

Drop-off and pick-up reach your phone the moment they happen.

12:00 Time to rest

Resting is part of the day too.

A quiet nap, with water and hypoallergenic snacks always at hand, and shade all day long.

Exhausted dogs get reactive. We don't want tired dogs at the end of the day, we want balanced ones.

14:00 Sounds and scent

In the afternoon, the nose gets to work.

First an hour of sound enrichment: guided relaxation and new stimuli, a little at a time. Then search games and scent puzzles.

Scent is a dog's most active sense. Using it tires them out in a healthy way.

18:00 Home time

They go home. The day stays in the app.

Staggered pick-ups, at the time you arrange. During the day the team leaves notes and photos, and at the end of the month you get a recap of it all.

From 16:00 until 18:30. Real photos from our yard.

Wellbeing and trust

What we do differently

  • No cages, a family setting

    Dogs spend the day with us like at home. Sofas, a garden, room to rest.

  • Missed a day? You don't lose it.

    A justified absence becomes compensation credit: an extra daycare day or a discount on a stay, depending on your plan. You see the balance and the deadline in the app.

  • The vet, one message away

    You talk directly to our partner vet on WhatsApp, from the app: to renew a vaccine or ask a question.

  • No group chats. No noise.

    No WhatsApp group with everyone's messages. Each update reaches only you, organised, with the history at hand.

  • Birthday cake

    In your dog's birthday month we treat them to a cake. A house tradition, for a token contribution.

  • The whole family follows along

    Share access with whoever you like. Everyone sees the same dog, the same notes and the same updates.

What people say about us

Kobe has been a second home for our Oliver. It's a comfort to know Oliver spends the day in good company, burning off energy and learning to get along in a pack. João and Joana are an exemplary team, caring about every dog and the conditions they offer our furry friends. It's great to have a daycare so well located in the city of Setúbal. I recommend Kobe without hesitation!
