Caroline & Barry were great house sitters. They arrived the afternoon before the sit to get orientated with both our home and the area. Nothing was too much trouble. Their communication was excellent. We had the added bonus of a drop off and collection from the airport. Our home was lovely and clean on our return. Needless to say N2 has some new friends and was very happy with his sitters. We would have no hesitation in inviting them back to sit again and would thoroughly recommend them if asked.
Archie is the absolute best. A lovely human as well as a delight with pets. He sat for us before and my cats remembered / loved him well. The house was brilliantly taken care of--and we would highly recommend him to any owner.

Roxy - our energetic, anxious, epileptic Vizsla spent some wonderful years at 4 Paws. Even with all her special needs I never once worried about her. The team at 4 Paws gave Roxy all the extra pats, hugs and laps to sit on whenever she needed it. She always came home exhausted after the training, play sessions, paddock runs and lake swims with her doggy friends. I cannot recommend 4 Paws enough! Roxy misses you all so much xx
My energetic border collie X goes to 4 Paws daycare once a week and it’s been so beneficial for him. Not only is it great for burning energy and socialisation with other dogs, they do training every week and have helped with his fear of cars and busy roads.
Our 2 year old German shepherd attends the Paddock Runs and it is literally the highlight of his week. He gets so excited and waits patiently for Lexi to arrive, so we know without a doubt he has a great time with all of his dog friends. We love not only the knowledgeable and friendly team, but the ease of the pick ups and the supervised play. The photos are a bonus, he comes back tired and sleeps all day dreaming about his adventures I am sure. Cannot recommend 4 Paws enough. It’s been the best thing to include safe social play into our pups life.
My husband and I have been sending our Dog Olive to 4 Paws Daycare since it opened. I honestly would give them more than 5 stars if I could! Lexi and the team are absolutely incredible and so helpful and loving to the dogs. Our Olive can be quite a handful difficult at times, and the patience they have shown to her makes our lives so much more manageable and we would be absolutely lost without them! Could not recommend their services more! Thank you Lexi and team!!!
Cannot recommend 4Paws enough! They are so dedicated to training and making sure all of the dogs play and have fun and it really shows. They sometimes have themed weeks and getting the photos and training ideas each week is such a highlight. My pup always comes back exhausted and she is so much more socialised and well trained since starting day care with 4Paws. Thank you to Lexi and the team! You will not regret putting your dog in the hands of 4Paws 🤍
Lexi and the team at 4 paws take such good care of our two boys, Archie (Rhodesian Ridgeback) and Romeo (Lagotto). Our dogs absolutely love going to 4 Paws and get so excited when Lexi turns up to pick them up. The paddock runs are a great way for them to have a play with other dogs (and wear them out) with the knowledge that they are in the safety of a fully fenced paddock. The doggie daycare has also been so good for our dogs to spend the day socialising and training. Lexi and the team clearly love all the dogs but also have great knowledge of dog behaviour and training. I completely trust Lexi and the team with our dogs and highly recommend.
Highly recommend! Lexi has been great with my 2year old female Belgian Shepherd X who is abit too confident of a dog and can be bullish towards other dogs. She has given us tips and training on how to furfil my dogs needs and tap into areas of enrichment for my dog that I wasn’t aware of. I’ve noticed the positive behavioural changes in my girl due to Lexi’s work to date.
Lexi looks after my dog aka child about once a week. She is absolutely brilliant and I highly recommend her to everyone looking for someone extremely trustworthy to care for your special one! Jax absolutely loves going to Lexi's and doesn't look back as soon as he gets there. She is the reason he now behaves and is sociable with other dogs. Thank you, Lexi, you have a special gift!
Lexi is one of the most passionate and professional trainers we've ever encountered. We have a Vizsla and a Weimaraner both one year old very active and definitely a handful. Lexi has looked after them multiple times while we were away on holiday and take them on group walks every week, very easy to communicate with and tailors her service to our fur babies' needs. We cannot thank Lexi enough and our dogs absolutely adore her. Highly recommended, one of the best pet careers and trainers in Illawarra.
Lexi has looked after our two cats in the comfort of their own home a few times now. Very reliable and trustworthy. We highly recommend Lexi to look after your loved pets while you're away.
Green paw cottage & Natalie were absolutely brilliant - I couldn't fault a single thing! My puppy was kennelled there for a bit over a week whilst I was in hospital. Not only does she go above & beyond in terms of care (dogs are not caged at night like many kennels!). She actively monitored and took care of of each individual dog (including daily updates & photos/videos of my fur baby daily ! Which was the highlight of my day!)... I would highly recommend her to anyone who wishes their pooch to get 5 star treatment at an affordable price!. Thank you so much Natalie!
Wow! What a great local business. I loved the setup and Natalie is such a great lady. Lots of experience and really knows her stuff. I'd be very confident to take our dog there. 🐕 🙂👌 …
Highly recommend. The owner is kind and caring for the dogs and pays close individual attention to the dogs, one of our dogs visits regularly and the other is far too socially anxious, so enjoys the time alone at home while the younger sibling socialises at day care. The owner provides really helpful and constructive feedback about the puppies in our family and we are really happy knowing we are doing the best thing for each of our dogs seperately and also for the other dogs at day-care.
Highly recommended. Nat is professional and caring. My dog absolutely loves her and Green Paw Cottage.
I highly recommend Green Paw Cottage. Our fur baby has been going there for nearly two years for day care while we are at work and regularly stays while we are on holidays. Natalie goes over and above to ensure all the dogs are extremely well cared for while they are in her care. Our girl loves to go there she gets so excited when we pull up she can’t wait to get inside and play with all the other dogs.
My Vincent has been going every week since he was 4 months old. He absolutely loves it there and Nat. Nat takes care of the doggies like they were her own and has birthday parties for their special days. It is so comforting knowing I can go away on holidays and that my baby is taken care of and never caged. I don't know what I would have done without Nat and this fabulous daycare and dog boarding service.
Absolutely love Green Paw Cottage. Such a warm, welcoming home away from home for our fur baby. She loves going and has such a fun day playing and enjoying lots of stimulating activities. 100% recommend to anybody that is looking for a professional, caring environment for their dog.
Green Paw Cottage is so wonderful. Natalie loves all the dogs like they are her own. My cocker spaniel Luna absolutely loves it there. She has the best time running around with all her friends and playing games. After spending the day there she sleeps the entire next day she is so tired haha! Highly recommended
Green Paw provides a caring and nurturing environment for my sweet and fragile dog. He loves going there and plays with his friends all day. The socialization has helped him relax and feel comfortable around others and he comes home pooped! Very professional, reliable and flexible.
Would highly recommend using this puppy day care and holiday service. The team are highly professional, incredibly responsive to ad hoc and late notice requests and will give you honest feedback on suitability of your puppy with regular puppy guests on days of the week. My little Effy has been going since she got her vaccinations as a puppy and it was GREAT for socialising her, toilet training her by following the other pack members (although of course we still had to do training at home) and also ensuring she didn't develop separation anxiety from myself because she is a COVID baby. I have absolutely no worries or concerns about Effy's time at day care because her day care mum sends updates, photos and always kindly ushers effy into day care (because every day at daycare is like sending a human bub to kindy, nervous to go, but once she is there she is obsessed). Effy loves her second family at the daycare, she has been attending on an ad hoc basis for over a year now :)
Simply the best puppy day-care there is. Our princess is picked up & dropped off each day she goes, she sits staring out the window waiting for the bark-bus to arrive then can’t get out the door fast enough. They share photos every day to FB, keep them cool when it gets hot, play in the pool or with the hose & generally have a ball. They also offer grooming where your baby comes home smelling & looking amazing. You can tell the girls really love dogs & out baby loves going.
My beautiful Paco just can't wait for the school bus to pick him up Tuesday mornings. He gets so excited. All the girls are just lovely. I get excited to see the photos online at the end of the day of all the smiling doggies...especially Paco. They obviously enjoy themselves so much.
Barney has been attending for a long time. He loves it. When he leaves his breakfast to get on the bus you know he enjoys going.
My dog Derek has been attending Canineology for about three years now. He attends two days a week and they’re his absolute favourite days. He gets incredibly excited to go and always lives his best life while he is there. He comes home absolutely exhausted after chasing the ball, swimming in the water bowl and playing with all his friends. I also cannot rate the staff highly enough-they are incredibly friendly and love Derek as if he was their own dog. They are incredibly responsive to my messages and extremely accommodating. I highly recommend Canineology to everyone who owns a dog!
My dog just loves going to Canineology once a week Buster gets picked up from home and dropped off at home His excitement as staff pick him up is pure exuberance The next day is a recovery day, so pooped after a whole day of playing. Good rest day for all the humans who live with Buster too Staff have identified a sore he had on his back which I had not noticed before and recommended a cream which healed the wound. The staff also observed once that Buster seemed more quiet than usual. He was more quiet than usual. He was taken on many extra big walks than usual that week. Buster is nurtured and loved at Canineology and he just loves going there
We have always found Maddie and the team to be very friendly and accomodating. Any request we have ever had has been no problem. They treat Kahlua like she is one of theirs and we have never felt any anxiety in leaving her in their care. Pick up is definitely a bonus and really takes the pressure of us. thanks Maddie and team for everything you do for Kahlua (and us).
Canineology is a wonderful meeting place for my dog. The added benefit of pick up and drop off is so convenient. Pat, our boxer loves his day there and comes back exhausted. This social time for him is so important as he is a "frustrated greeter" and does not have any social skills with other dogs. Maddy and her team go above and beyond in communicating with me on any issues that arise and are always accommodating with my questions.
My dogs always come home happy and tired. An Excellent, valuable service. Maddie and her team are always kind, caring and professional. Check out the FB posts - all the dogs are smiling from ear to ear and they all look so happy.
Great service to humans and equally great service to dogs :-) . My dog loves the 'Doggy daycare' at Canineology. The daycare has also calmed him down around the house now that he mixes with other dogs. Only friendly dogs are welcome :-)
Our furry ones absolutely love going to daycare, they know the schedule & are waiting for the school bus every day they go. Maddie and the girls absolutely love dogs & it’s clear to see in the care that take with them. Thumbs up from us!
Kerrie is great, we went away for a few days and she looked after our dog, Bandit. She came around a few days before to meet him and see where all his things were and get a clear view of what we needed. Whist away she sent us photos of her playing with Bandit. Very happy with her service and would definitely recommend her.
We use Kerrie on a regular basis with our fur babies, she is just amazing with them and I know they are in the best hands when with her, which provides me with so much peace of mind. She treats and cares for them like they are her own and they love her for it. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Kerrie to anyone looking for a pet care service. You will only regret not finding her sooner!
Kerrie has been visiting our home to look after our zoo almost from when she started out I think. And we have a very mixed zoo....cats, dogs, fish & birds. All of who we have no hesitation in leaving in Kerrie's more than competent & reliable hands. The photos that Kerrie sends to us on each of her visits while we're away prove how much the animals are comfortable in her care. I can not praise Kerrie & her service highly enough. Our zoo is looked after, any needy pot plants can be tended to if needed and the house is always secure. Thanks Kerrie - I really can not thank you enough for all you do.
Our three fur babies were well looked after by Kerrie. From the moment we met we knew our cats were in caring hands! Daily updates were amazing too! Our plants were sure not to miss out on some care too! We will definitely be booking Kerrie in the future, we can't recommend her highly enough! Thank you so much Kerrie!
Very happy with the support we received from Kerrie! She looked after our cat, Reggie, while we went on our honeymoon. Reggie is a little nervous with new people but Kerrie took the time to get to know him and make sure he felt comfortable. This was the longest that we’d left Reggie and Kerrie’s communication with us meant that we could relax knowing he was very well taken care of.
Kerri is my go-to for looking after my brace of kitties when I go away. She's super professional and is great with my shy bunch of ladies. I enjoy the fact she always gives me updates and photos, and she goes above and beyond with caring for not only my cats, but also my property as well. I'll often come home to find the litter has been sifted or changed and my plants watered. She will even offer to take my bins out and collect mail. Just top notch service, and she's a lovely lady to boot. I trust her in my home. I can't recommend Kerri highly enough. So much so that I get really worried that she might be booked out when I get a work trip sprung on me at the last minute. You'd go a long way before you'd find someone as professional, well organised and dependable as Kerri. Sign up to her site, it makes it easy to book within a few clicks. Just please don't book her when I need her!!
Kerrie came to our house while we were away to take care of our cat. She was very professional and really cared for our cat. We received photos every time she came to the house and we felt our cat was happy and received the attention she needed while we were away. We will be using Kerrie again and would highly recommend K9 Kidz & Katz
Kerrie is very special, she loves walking & looking after your beautiful pets. I can definitely recommend her as a kind & reliable pet sitter. Your pets will love her too.
Kerrie was excellent looking after Bonnie while I was away. When she visited for the initial meet and greet Bonnie took to her instantly. She provided daily updates and photos which I really appreciated. Would happily book kerrie again in a heartbeat. 100% recommend. :)
Kerrie is fabulous, so caring and committed to caring for your pets - whatever they are!! Kerrie provides daily updates on each pet, focusing on ensuring you know your pets are looked after, Thanks Kerrie
A wonderful boarding kennel!I have used Tony's business for 12 years and it is brilliant. Excellent service and my dogs always return happy and content. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place for their beloved fur children.
Thank you Tony and the girls for looking after my Princess. Lumi is a Staffordshire bull terrier and a lot of kennels in the Illawarra will turn down a staffy as sad as it due the breed. (Absolutely heartbreaking) I am so grateful I found Horsley boarding kennels and they allowed Lumi to board with them. From the moment I met Tony I was comfortable and I knew my girl would be safe and cared for. I wouldn’t just leave her with anyone as she is my world. Lumi has had a couple visits whilst we travelled Europe once for a long period of 6 weeks and just recently 4 weeks. She gets very excited to get picked up and loves to jump on the back of the van lol. She always comes home very very happy.She is very tired but in a couple of days she will be back to her mischievous self. I want to reassure anyone who is looking for reviews and who is unsure about booking. Horsley boarding kennels is a great kennel and your pets will be loved and cared for. I promise they will come home happy! Thank you Guys so much for looking after Lumi and giving me peace of mind Hollie
I have used Horsley Cattery for my cat a few times. It is spacious, cat friendly and very easy to drop and pick up. My cat is well looked after and after 2 to 3 weeks separation from family, she is emotionally ok, well if cat have emotions...
We had both our cat and dog stay here over the long weekend and could not recommend this place more! They offer a shuttle service from your house to the kennel and cattery and return which is super helpful. Both came home healthy, happy and our dog came back washed too which is such a nice touch. I note some other reviews point out they never answer their phone, which is true, but they are out playing with the puppies that is why! If you leave a voicemail they always call back in a timely manner. The staff are also super helpful, friendly and professional. Will definitely have our pets stay here in the future.
I would never use anybody else. We love the convenience of pick up and drop off. We got our dates mixed up and the staff could not have been more accomodating. Our baby has been over 6 times now and is always very happy, as are we.
I took my two cats there for 10 nights this month and came back to them having fleas! They never answer the phone and you’ll always need to leave a voicemail to get in contact with them. The staff are okay but I’m not sure about the hygiene as even the bowls of water were greenish from the sides and had dead insects in them! I paid money to have to deal with fleas I guess 😂 Update: The owner has been in touch and offered with their flea treatment and was very apologetic and said that they haven’t had any cats with fleas. Great costumer Service very understanding. *please do flea prevention measures before taking your cats there.
We are so lucky to have such a great boarding facility in our area. Our German Shepherd is boarded at Horsley and he comes home happy, clean and relaxed. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pick up and drop off service is brilliant.
I've been boarding my dogs with Horsley kennels for many many years, and often for prolonged periods, and I've always been very happy with the treatment, of both myself and my dogs! I've had occasions where one of my dogs required special attention (due to age) and the other medication (due to diabetes) and every time the staff is more than happy to accommodate, and they even went the extra mile to keep my oldie comfortable. My dogs always came home happy and healthy and you can see they were looked after. Being Huskies they need a bit of extra care and Horsley staff never disappoint. I will keep boarding with Horsley as long as I have dogs :)
Tony and the team deserve 10 star's. While on the other side of Australia I had a family member looking after my German shepherd who had an accident and was hospitalized. After 1 phone call tony and the team took on my dog for 2 weeks. On our return date we had several delays and were home late but thanks to Tony with the communication this was rectified and they held my dog a little longer and not just dropping him off by himself in the yard. Once I was able to contact tony he gave me a full run done on how my dog went and his feeding habits ect. Very professional and easy to deal with they were highly recommended and I can see why. I will definitely be using them again
Great service! We left our boy for 39 days while we were overseas and the staff kept in constant contact with us via Facebook in regards to how he was going. We were never worried once about him, knowing he was in good hands and kept safe. I inspected the grounds and kennels before we left him and I was completely happy with what I seen. They picked up and dropped off, which was very convenient. Awesome place to board your furbies!
I recently started taking my dog to Around the Clock Daycare, and I am thoroughly impressed with their 24-hour care and grooming services. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring my dog is comfortable and well-cared for at all hours. The round-the-clock care is a lifesaver, offering peace of mind for busy pet parents. Whether it's day or night, I know my dog is in good hands, getting the attention and supervision she needs. The facility is clean, spacious, and equipped with plenty of areas for the dogs to play and rest. The grooming services are exceptional as well. My dog always comes home looking and feeling great. The groomers are professional and attentive to detail, making sure to cater to any specific grooming requests.
Highly recommend both the daycare and boarding services with Around the Clock Dog Care. We have been using the daycare several days a week since last year and have found the staff to all be professional and knowledgeable. Our dog is always very happy to see all the members of staff which is a good sign! We have a husky so always worry about using a new doggy daycare as he can be quite stubborn at times but we have felt completely at ease with Around the Clock as we feel they have the experience and knowledge in dealing with him. We have just used the boarding services for a little over 2 weeks and Enzo was thoroughly taken care of and we had regular updates on him- will definitely use again.
Recently new to around the clock dog care . My dog loves the place ! She knows when I put my work clothes on that she is off to ATCDC , jumps straight in the car and is so excited when we arrive there . The staff are fantastic and communication is excellent . Being concerned on Nancy first day sometime ago, received updates and pics from the owner of how she settled in . Love that she is interacting with other dogs and when picking her up to go home she is exhausted from her fun filled day ! Highly recommend Around the clock day care .
Great place. Wonderful staff. My dog suffers with anxiety and doesn't like people (got him through covid) however loves going to doggy daycare. He goes twice a week and both mornings when I say doggy daycare today he's waiting at the front gate for my partner to take him. Can't wait to get out the car and jumps all over the staff when he gets there. Owner is lovely and always keeps us updated on what he's been up to during the day. Definitely recommend to any one who loves their furry friends.
My pooch loves attending Around the clock. She has been attending daycare for several year now and loves going. They recently started grooming and the service is incredible. We couldn’t recommend Robyn and Wilson from Around the clock any higher. Consistent, loving and reliable is the best way I could describe them.
My boy Bentley has been going there since he was a puppy and is 3 years old now and loves going there twice a week. The owner Roybn and the girls who work there are the best and nothing is a drama at all, you can tell they all love the dogs after as your dogs are always getting cuddles and more cuddles when they arrive and leave for the day. And even Bentley loves staying over night with whoever looks after him and the first night he stayed there he was up cuddling with the lady that was looking after him. Around the clock is the best place for your furry family member
One staff member looks after over 20 dogs at a time. Not only that if you attempt to pick up your dog outside of their set pick up hours (one hour earlier in my case) you can expect to cop it from the owner. The young girls who work there are great but clearly overworked and underpaid. The female owner is incredibly rude. I dreaded it when the young girls weren't there because I knew my dog would be stuck with her. She would separate my dog from the rest because she was an energetic dog and leave her alone in some random room. My dog would be super distressed when I went to pick her up and at one point tried to jump over the office desk to get to me whilst crying. Absolutely do not recommend this place. It's a small facility so it's definitely not suited to larger dogs. There are much better dog daycares around the area that are run by people who actually love dogs.
I just would like to take some time to write a review to this beautiful place. I live on the central coast and I sometimes come to Wollongong for work. I have an American blue Staffy called Mia of 2 years old, saying that she is a ball of energy is just not enough. Mia is a lovely happy girl that will take more time away from your life than a full time job. Her energy levels are out of control, she is the happiest dog on earth and very loving too. The team of Around the clock did their absolute best to look after her today. After running on the treadmill and going for multiple walks they did take their time to introduce Mia to the other dogs just to make sure she would play nicely. The team is very kind, loving, understanding and patient. They explained me how exited she gets playing with other dogs and how important it is for her to take a break in the crate to settle down and decompress. Mia goes to another day care on the central coast where she is more familiar with the environment, so what happened today was a little bit of an exception as she was so exited to see the Wollongong team again after 3 months we haven’t seen them. They did have also a vet nurse today just giving a general look to Mia and maybe discovering something a little out of place on her left hip, this could be why the excitement sometimes is not well contained as she might be slightly in pain. I have never noticed anything as she is such a healthy and active dog but thanks to this I had the chance to book Mia in with my vet on the central coast for tomorrow. I am so grateful to have met such a good team, caring and loving towards my dog, understanding the need of each breed without pointing the finger on Mia due to being a bully breed and being a little crazy sometimes. Mia had a blast of a day and she got well look after, she got pampered and spoiled with cuddles and treats too. I would give over 10 starts review if I could. Thank you again 🙏🤍 Valentina & Mia
Our dog has been going to Around the Clock Dog Care for a few years now and both she and we love it! We love the Facebook pictures we get during the day, we love that she comes home tired after a day playing with her doggie friends. We love that she is happy when she gets in the car of an afternoon. We love that the staff are always happy to see our dog and let us know how she’s got on during the day. They are professional and obviously care about the dogs. We know our dog loves Around the Clock Dog Care because as soon as we get near she sits up the in car and cannot wait to get out the door and inside. We definitely recommend this doggie day care.
Cannot reccomend Robyn and the team highly enough! Excellent service, great pricing and convenient location. Very very thankful for their flexibility. They send cute pics to keep us updated, even clipped his nails for us which was lovely. Our puppy is super excited when he arrives - made plenty of friends!
"A big thank you to Claudia, Arthur, Rebecca, Michelle, and the whole team at VIP Dog Club for taking such great care of Louie while we were on vacation. They went above and beyond, paying attention to every little detail to make sure he felt at home, even when away from us. The team is incredibly professional, and the place is always spotless. Louie was happy, relaxed, and even with his medical needs, they made sure he was well looked after. I highly recommend VIP Dog Club to any dog owner—they treat every dog like part of their family, ensuring they get the same care and love, even if that means handling any medical attention needed. It's a true home away from home for our pets!" Love from Louis family .... ❤️
Lovely holiday day for our dog Bailey. Carers Claudia and Michelle are truly beautiful and kind dog lovers. They took dogs' health and welfares really seriously and took extra steps to send us pictures everyday to inform us how Bailey was doing.
We have used VIP Dog Club for boarding periodically for about 1 year. We have found Claudia, Arthur and the team exceptional in the care and service they provide (to us and the pups!). Our 1.5 year old Cavoodle races in whenever we arrive and just seems to love the place. I have trialled a few other "similar" local providers and VIP is hands down the BEST. I really appreciated their openess and transparency in touring the facility in the beginning. Lots of play spaces inside and out, grooming on site. An amazing facility already that they always seem to be working on and improving. So glad we found VIP Dog Club and can not recommend them enough!
VIP is one of, if not the best small dog, daycare and Holiday Stay facility in the Illawarra. Claudia, Arthur and their team are exceptional. You could not fault the care, service, prices, availability (365 days), and the facility is spectacular. I am very fussy, and if VIP DOG Club can impress me, you will be blown away. Look no further, this is this place for your pups!
Absolutely LOVE these guys. (Our second attempt to find somewhere for our pup) The staff are amazing, the place is just like a (fun) second home and they put in so much time and effort to make it so. Can’t speak highly enough of the team. They offer transport and boarding also as well as a range of other onsite services like grooming and training.
Claudia and the VIP Dog Club are amazing! We entrusted our dog with them for a few weeks while we went on holiday and our pom had the best time (we could tell from the daily photos/updates VIP sent us). Highly recommend!
My two daschounds absolutely love their day at day care , Claudia and Arthur are the most beautiful people that love and care for all the dogs , would only trust them with my fur babies 🐶🐶 …
We have known Claudia and Arthur for approximately 8 years. They looked after our old ruby cavalier as if he was their own.They also minded Shianne and Molly for us since they were puppies. They also did a great thing for us by giving Molly a home with them when we were sadly made to give he up. Molly absolutely loves them and so does Shianne. We are elderly pensioners and often need to have Shianne minded.sometimes I think Shianne loves them more than us. We can't possibly say enough good about them both
Hands down , the best facility in the Illawarra for medium to small dogs. Structured days and exceptionally caring staff - all qualified to look after your furbabies. Unmatchable !
Oscar loves VIP Dog Club and we couldn't be happier we found them! Claudia is amazing. The communication is outstanding with lots of pics sent throughout the day to keep you up to date. Oscar has the best time and it is so good to see him socialise with others in a safe environment. We are so happy we have joined the VIP Dog Club Family :) Highly recommend
Couldn’t recommend BEBT enough! Gemma is SO lovely and I know my George is in the best care. George absolutely loves his days at BEBT, basically wanting to jump out of the car as soon as we pull up! I’m so glad I found this place, it’s amazing!
Gemma is the most amazing dog trainer and minder of all time- there is no one else like her (and her staff). Words cannot express how grateful I am for her taking care of our Bernese Mountain dog puppy Franklin- she provided updates, kept him safe and he had the best time of his life while he was attending her daycare. She offers an exceptional service and goes above and beyond for your fur baby. Highly highly recommended. Thank you so much for everything!!!
My pup gets way too excited whenever he realises he's on the way to daycare. I worry that he will like Gemma more than us sometimes 😔 She also takes amazing photos for us to enjoy at home …
I really enjoyed the Pet CPR First Aid course. It was awesome and I would recommend anyone that has a pet to attend. I also love attending Dog Yoga (Doga) every Tuesday evening with my big Great Dane x and with the very patient Lucia, who teaches the class. It helps to relax the muscles and gets you ready for a good night's sleep.
BEBT is not only my favourite place but it is my fur babies favourite place too. As I work full time it is so relieving getting to drop my puppy off in the amazing care of Gemma and her girls to look after my pup. Gemma is the nicest person and always gives updates and lets you know how your pet goes during the day. If anything happens she makes sure to make adjustments best for you and your pup. I am forever grateful to have BEBT in my life as it is a life saver for those who work full time !!! I would highly recommend this doggy daycare to anyone that asks !!!
Gemma and the team are so fantastic. Darcy has been coming since she was a pup and it has done so much for her confidence and she is now such a social little girl who absolutely loves her daycare days. I love hearing all about her day when I pick her up! There is always plenty of staff around and each member of the team knows the personalities of every dog in their care and they all provide plenty of love and cuddles (whilst giving little bits of training along the way). BEBT and the team really love what they do and it shows in the level of care they provide. Highly recommended!!
The most amazing space and place for all dogs to enjoy their day at daycare. I love that there is so much space that no matter what the weather my dogs get to run around and play. All their needs have been thought about and catered for. Such a positive place for dogs to feel safe and happy when they are away from home. They have the best time when at Bright Eyes and Bushy Tails. It is not just a place to spend the day - they get to play with their friends, the staff initiate games, activities and training using positive training methods as well as spending quality time with each dog. The dogs are so excited to arrive each day. They just love Gemma and the team. The care that is given to each dog well and truly goes above and beyond. Gemma has an amazing ability to connect with the dogs and make them fall in love with her very quickly. It is just like a big family and the dogs love it. They also offer fear free grooming which has been an amazing help with my dogs. It makes such a difference when the dog feels safe.
Absolutely fantastic doggy daycare and yoga (we attend both). My dog loves attending daycare so much he tries to go on weekends. You receive personalised feedback from the BEBT team whenever our dog attends daycare. In addition Gemma is happy to answer questions and provide resources. This has helped us so much in structuring our training with our dog. Gemma and the team were super helpful and patient while we were working through our dog's "stranger and strange places danger". Thanks to the help of Gemma and the team at BEBT he is much more comfortable in new places and around strangers and has expanded his circle of "trusted humans".
As a qualified Vet Nurse I don’t want to take my boy Leni anywhere else. Gemma and the attentive staff keep a close eye on all the dogs in their care and provide a lot of fun enrichment for the pups, making sure that Leni always comes home happy and tired. The drop off and pick up times are flexible and it only runs until 1pm to make sure the pups aren’t overwhelmed or over exhausted which is extremely rare to find in a doggy daycare. Gemma is always quick to respond and gives lots of photo updates which I love 😇 Keep up the good work Gemma and team!
Excellent doggy day care. Gemma is wonderful with all the dogs and really knows her stuff. My dog goes nuts with excitement when he realises he’s going to BEBT. And I can relax knowing he’s well looked after.
