We know that each dog is unique, which is why we tailor our care to their individual needs. Our experienced staff provide plenty of attention, regular health checks, and a safe, fun environment so your dog is happy and healthy during their stay.
All dogs staying with us need to be up-to-date on their vaccinations (C5 or equivalent) and be up to date with flea and tick treatment. We are also able to care for dogs that aren’t desexed, but we do not accept dogs that are in heat.
If you’d like to view our facilities in the ACT, we recommend booking a time in advance. Unfortunately, we can’t offer tours at short notice or during drop-off hours to avoid disruptions for our guests.
