Dog Sitters in Park Orchards

Angela is excellent. She has a vocation in caring for pets and is also very knowledgeable and experienced. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

She did very to well Jasmine, Very professional definitely will come back ❤️❤️❤️

I have been going to Angela for over 4 years and she is excellent, Noodle loves going there, he has stayed for short periods or extended times and she is a great groomer too. Thanks Angela and its a lovely touch she sends photos of Noodle whilst I am away :)

My dog had a freak matting incident and we thought we would have to shave her but the groomer got all the knots and dreads out!! She was so so kind and she showed so much care towards our fur baby! Not to mention the detailed report on the health checks she had done! Flawless service!

Best grooming ever. I will be going there again next time. I will introduce this to my family and friends. My puppy looks so cute. Thanks Angela

Hi Angela Thanks for a excellent groom you did for Rusty. Very impressed with the service and price so I'll be back for sure. Lou

She treats dogs as her own and wellcome them to her house. I am really happy with my dog's condition.

Great grooming and dog service. Kayleigh really enjoyed her time!

Good, Heather listened to what I required for Koby

Velvet loved going there, had such fun

My goldie always has the best time at The Pooch Pad - it really feels like a home away from home for him!

We have used Sharon's services a number of times now. Cannot recommend a better sitter who knows how to look after double coated dogs. Highly recommend Sharon with many years of experience.

Sharon looked after our boy for 3 weeks while we were away. He came back happy and healthy so it was clear that he was well looked after during his stay. He also enjoyed the company of Teddy and other dogs. She was easy to get in touch with and promptly gave us updates when requested

Sharon and Jessica care for my two golden retrievers on a regular basis. The dogs now run in happily when they are dropped off. Sharon sends regular updates and photos. She is reliable and the dogs are well fed and exercised and given lots of affection. Sharon genuinely cares for all the pets that come into her care.

Sharon takes the best care of my 2 golden retriever girls. One has more anxiety in general but she loves going to GoldenPawz and runs in the door happily when we take her. We are so comfortable knowing they are in such good hands.

Sharon and Jessica have taken very good care of my dog. Sharon sent photos and updates regularly while we were away. Definitely recommending Golden Pawz Pet Sitting to our friends and family :)

I was recommended Golden Pawz by my cousin who said it was like dropping your dog over to a friend's house. Sharon and Jessica clearly love dogs and it was it was great to know our border collie Koby was having a nice time while we were away. The photo updates and messages from Sharon made us feel really comfortable that Koby was happy and being well looked after. We will definately be using Sharon again to look after our boy. Highly recommended!

Sharon and Jessica have been caring for Klaus (black and tan dachshund) for a few months now. They have special sausage dog play days and Klaus can't wait to visit! He is always very excited to leave the house and always returns home tired and satisfied. Thanks for all the care!

My dog Paris was well looked after by Sharon and Jessica for over a month recently. Paris had a great time and enjoyed her start. Both Sharon and Jessica showed great love for Paris. The regular communications and flexibility provided (with my travel plans changing) were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Golden Paws for their pet sitting services. Paris is already looking forward to being back for a stay :) Thank you again Sharon and Jessica!

Our mini groodle Buddy loves going to stay with Sharon. He always comes home so happy and relaxed! We feel so comfortable leaving him behind now when we go away.

Sharon and Jessica take care of Dino often - and practically his second home. The service is flexible in case of unplanned changes, they are very communicative and provide plenty of updates during Dinos stay. Dino is always excited when I bring him over - I highly recommend Golden Paw!

Very relieved at the great service that Elyse provided from Pawshake. My 20 yo pussy needed a lot of attention and cleaning up after and I was extremely happy to see she was looked after. Elyse even sent me videos so that I did not worry while on holiday. Excellant Service.

It was very easy to find a sitter with Pawshake. The app is well done and the communication with Charlie, our sitter was also very easy. Our 4 month puppy Paku has fallen in love with Charlie and her dog Opinel. We will use Pawshake again and Charlie is the perfect carer for Paku. We had a very tired and happy boy at home that night.

Easy online service to use. Brittany had a meet and greet with our 2 cats and took wonderful care of our boys, even sending some photos to us! Our cats were very relaxed when we came back. Will definitely use this service again

I had a fantastic experience having Sharon from Pawshake care for my cat while I was away. She was wonderfully communicative and kept me up to date on my cat’s care - despite my cat hiding from her throughout the week I was away! Pawshake was very easy to book care through and easy to use!

I discovered Pawshake when looking for in-home care for my rescue dog, and I was able to get in touch with some great local pet-sitters. Since then I'm using Pawshake regularly when my dog needs some extra company or a walk while I'm at work - and I've had nothing but positive experiences. The pet-sitters on Pawshake are all genuine animal lovers who have all been so kind, professional, and taken great care of my fur baby! Being able to organise meet and greets before booking is so valuable too. A great service.

Our cats were well looked after and our sitter was terrific in caring for their wellbeing. They began to warm up to her in just a few days. We have already booked her for our next holiday.

Thanks Pawshake for the creating a unique service like this. Having recently adopted a puppy, I was hesitant to put him into a dog kennel / hotel. As a child the only option we had was dog kennels, and our family dog was always traumatised when we collected her. Admittedly, things have improved since then, but even recently, I saw one Dog Hotel that offers just 30 mins of play time per day! And you have to pay extra if you want more socialisation. Unbelievable! With Pawshake we connected with a great petsitter (my glowing review of her is on the app) and it meant that our pooch had a holiday while we were away on our holiday! Regularly photos of him made us feel at ease, and when we collected him, he looked happy and well looked after. (And in addition, it was a LOT cheaper than dog hotels / kennels). Thank you!

Thank Pawshake for the service and let us to find the reliable dog sitters so easily. This was the first time for our dog to leave home, but he had a good time with the sitters. We received our dog's photos through Pawshake everyday and were very happy with it.

Pawshake was very easy to use and reliable too. Left our little dog for the first time in March. Was very happy with the sitter so used them again when we went away for the long weekend recently. Our little Teddy was cool and collective when we picked him up after he spent 3 nights with the sitter. Highly recommend the use of this website for doggy sitting.

Helen made me feel reassured that leaving our 5 month old puppy over Xmas was no hardship. Mimmi was happy to see me when I picked her up but calm & happy

Thank you so much Dogdayz for taking good care of Fuji! This was our first time being away from Fuji for an extended period of time (2 weeks) and he was thoroughly looked after. We were so anxious of leaving him but as soon as I saw photos of him posted on FB, I knew he was happy. It also helped that the staff are proactive with replying to emails and will gladly answer any questions and provide updates as requested. We appreciate the health and behaviour check out notes that outlined how he was day by day - it feels like we were still there with him. It’s nice knowing the dogs that he has befriended! Definitely recommend Dogdayz to everyone and will use them again for our next overseas travel! Thank you again so much! Fuji has been sleeping since getting picked up, proof that he had a blast playing with his friends!

My partner and I have been using Dogdayz Toolernvale for our 3.5 year old Staffy Bull Terrier Cross, Zuko, for about three years now. We travel at least once a year outside Australia, and often times more than that, added to which we have other occasions where we need to board Zuko for weekends away, or other social events where we cannot leave him at home alone. We have found the staff at Toolernvale to be friendly, cooperative, engaging, and always willing to chat and discuss any issues or concerns we might have. Zuko just LOVES staying at Dogdayz. On the days that we need to take him there… the moment we reach the Holden Road corner, Zuko immediately realises where he is being taken and starts getting VERY excited in the car about his upcoming stay, and being able to play with all his "friends" there. Once out of the car he just HAS to get to Reception as quickly as possible, and he can get a little annoyed if there is another dog owner ahead of us having their dog checked in first. The other nice service provided by Dogdayz is that at least weekly (it seems that sometimes it is twice a week…) a complete latest batch of photos of all dogs currently staying there are posted on the Dogdayz Facebook page, where we are able to see the latest photos of Zuko thoroughly enjoying his holiday stay. When we are travelling overseas, it is always very heartening to see very recent photos and to know that he is having a thoroughly good time without us. Of course, when we do return to pick him up at the end of a stay, whether it is just a day or two, or a long 3-4 week stay, Zuko is obviously happy that we have returned and for him to see us again. But always, for a couple of days after coming home, he seems a little saddened because he obviously misses his time there and the friends he has made while there… but he very soon revovers from that. I thoroughly recommend Dogdayz Toolernvale as a very dogfriendly environment for a short, OR a long-term, stay. We have never had any reason to be concerned, let alone be at all dissatisfied, about using their kennel boarding services. Nothing but professionhalism at all times has been our experience.

Really friendly, helpful staff. It’s a bit hard to ask your dog if she had a good time, but ours seemed very happy and healthy after a 4 day stay. We’ve used Dogdayz twice now and will be back. Love the daily photo streams on Facebook.

Walter is a happy dog and his behaviour on coming home confirmed that he was well looked after. Staff obviously love the animals and they take great interest and record a daily health report and how the dog has fitted in. The running of the place is caring and professional. It’s Walter’s home away from home. Thank you Warrandyte Team

The Warrandyte team are wonderful and take such great care of my dog whenever she stays there. You can tell they are real and caring dog lovers and genuinely see and interact with the dogs as individuals. Luna is normally very anxious and they take great care to ensure she feels happy and confident. And she has so much fun when she is there - She always runs to the gate without even a backward glance!

My Mini Schnauzer, Freddy, absolutely loves going on holidays at Toolern Vale. He is excited even before we get out of the car and can't wait to run in and see all his human and canine friends. The staff are incredibly friendly and take really good care of their guests. I wouldn't take Freddy anywhere else for his holidays. 😀 …

Our three-year-old Labrador loves staying at Dogdayz Warrandyte. He has stayed there about four times over the past year or so. He can't wait to get through the gate on dropoff. He loves running and playing with the other dogs in the large open spaces near the river. The staff are very friendly and take great care of him. The daily reports on his health and behaviour at the end of each stay are informative. Regular posts on Facebook show us what a great time he is having, which creates great peace of mind. Highly recommended, particularly for dogs that love running and playing with others.

Milo had so much fun during his 2 weeks at Dogdayz that he almost seemed conflicted about coming home with us!! We were nervous as this was his first time staying away for such a long time but I feel confident that he was very well looked after. Staff are caring and very keen to offer cuddles. The daily health check and feedback (provided at the end of the stay) was great to see. We will definitely be using Dogdayz again.

We love knowing our two dogs are being well cared for at Dogdayz Toolernvale. Always recommending it whenever we are asked. Our Frenchie is apprehensive to go but loves his stay, absolutely loves playing with the other dogs and having fun with the staff. Our American Bulldog can’t wait to get there, is always super excited on the drive and keen to go through the gate every single time. He always loves the pats and getting to see his brother throughout their stays. Our dogs have been there for a many short stays but also a big 5 week stay and the best part is always being confident with them being there, if we are wanting updates all we need to do is send an email or call but also love seeing the photos!

The best care was taken of our pup Ziggy whilst we were overseas for 3 weeks. You can tell the animal attendants, and everyone you cross paths with cares for the animals, and I think Ziggy was sad to leave. Would 100% recommend Dog Dayz Warrandyte and we will be back in the future. Thank you guys for all you do!

I signed Bob up for Kip's "Board & Train" program as I was going away, and wanted Bob to learn basic dog manners (not pulling towards other dogs/not pulling on the leash during walks). The staff at Kip are respectable, patient, and truly give all the love and attention your pooch deserves. Kip Homestead is located on a massive space, so there are plenty opportunities for your dog to learn new tricks and run around with some new friends (dogs are protected from each other by a fence). Olivia was assigned as Bob's trainer; she is incredible and our dog Bob absolutely loves her. I've seen her with other dogs too from the other videos on Kip, and it's the same with them. She's knowledgeable, confident, and just knows how to work with dogs (and people). I appreciated all the regular updates about Bob and his progress! And I also want to thank Olivia for the thorough handover at the end of the program to ensure that I'm able to continue the same level of training at home. Highly recommend the Board & Train program to anyone who wants help to improve their dog's overall behaviour/want somewhere safe to board their dog while going away. I've already recommended this place to all of my friends with dogs and I'm excited to see their pooch's progress. I'll be sending Bob here next time I go away (and I'm sure he'll be excited to be back at Kip Homestead)!

We’ve seen huge improvements in Dirks reactivity and general manners since we picked him up from his board and train program. His trainer Catherine provided lots of updates over the three weeks to keep us at ease and provided comprehensive guidance at the handover session so that we can continue his training at home. We will definitely bring Dirk back in for more top up sessions in future.

“Exceptional Training Experience with Kip Stay Homestead!” I can’t recommend Kip Stay Homestead enough! Our black lab, Charlie, recently completed their 21-day training program, and the results are beyond amazing. Olivia worked wonders with him—Charlie is now so much calmer and significantly less reactive to his environment. One of the most noticeable improvements is his loose leash walking—it’s like night and day. Seeing this new version of Charlie has made every penny spent on the program absolutely worth it. We know the work doesn’t stop here, but Olivia gave us an extensive and thorough handover, ensuring both my boyfriend and I feel confident in maintaining Charlie’s progress at home. Kip Stay Homestead has truly transformed our life with Charlie. If you’re considering training for your dog, this is the place to go! Thank you, Olivia, for giving us the tools to help Charlie thrive!

Our handsome Smooth Collie, Hugo, spent 3 weeks with David, the master of working dogs. From the moment we met David, he was confident and straightforward about what might be going on in our pup’s tiny head, based on his working breed heritage. We were immediately relieved, knowing that Hugo would be in good hands during our trip. While Hugo already has good manners and a gentle soul, he had been showing some unwanted reactivity towards strange/unfamiliar things/people. David and the team at Kip listened to our concerns, worked with Hugo, and cleared up some misunderstandings we had about his alert barking. Hugo is now handling new situations much better, because we, as owners, understand what he needs in order to manage his vigilant nature. The handover 1:1 session was very helpful, as was the online course, which I can revisit at any time. David also sent some additional information afterward, which showed the care and attention Hugo received during his stay. While the training wasn’t 100% force-free so that I can’t say it’s concurrent as in trend, we genuinely appreciated the efforts and care Hugo received during his time there. From the pupdates we received irregularly, we could tell Hugo was comfortable, with his tail wagging happily to the right. Overall Hugo will be going back to Kip Homestead whenever we can't take him with us.

We left our 2yo dog reactive Goldie with Cathrine for 3 weeks in the board and train program. We went in not expecting miracles, but to help move along in handling our girl day to day, understanding how to approach situations out of our control and getting her better on leash. It’s honestly night and day to when we dropped her off. Cathrine was very real with us, which we appreciated, that our girl just isn’t a dog’s dog. And likely never will be, but that’s ok. She has helped her walk on leash so much better to the point where, now a few weeks after picking her up, we can now go for 20 - 30 minute street walks without anxiety of what to do if another dog passes by. She even has got to the point of sniffing another dog for a few seconds and not showing aggression / fear. We know that she won’t ever be a dog who can be off leash and play with other dogs, but we have been blown away by the progress she made and tips in our toolkit to continue these good behaviours. Our regret is not finding Kip earlier in her life and leaving her with you guys. We loved the update videos and they provided us lots of laughs and happiness while away from her for a few weeks. We will definitely bring her for another stay at board and train when we are away next!!

My 6 year old GSD had her first stay over the weekend, and we couldn't be happier! She has had a few issues in the past with fear aggression and they addressed her care very diligently, the updates we received daily were very reassuring and when we picked her up today she was so happy and looked beautiful! She had no issues, and we are so impressed with Kip and can't wait for our puppy to have her next stay 😊 it's a bit on the pricier side, but well worth it!

Our dog Coco recently stayed here for 3 weeks while we were away and we honestly couldn’t be happier. From the very first moment, it’s obvious how much the team at Kip genuinely love and care about the dogs. We looked forward to the daily updates and photos to let us know how she was going which made it so much easier to be away (especially for our kids!). We booked daily bushwalks and a couple of training sessions for her stay and she was freshly bathed when we picked her up. Our only concern was that she wouldn’t want to come home ☺️ thank you so much to the team for taking such good care of our girl.

I recently enrolled my Pomeranian puppy, Little Foot, in the board and train program at Kip, and the experience exceeded all my expectations. David, our trainer, was absolutely incredible. His expertise, patience, and genuine love for animals were evident from the start. He took the time to understand Little Foot's unique personality and tailored the training to suit his needs. Throughout the program, David provided regular updates and insights, ensuring I felt confident and informed about Little Foot's progress. Little Foot has returned full of joy and is now more obedient, calm, and confident. The techniques David used were not only effective but also gentle and compassionate, which was very important to us. He taught Little Foot essential commands and addressed specific behavioral issues, making our day to day life much smoother and more enjoyable in the long run. I am beyond grateful for David's dedication and the comprehensive care Little Foot received at Kip.I wholeheartedly recommend the board and train program to anyone looking to improve their pet's behaviour and to overall give their furry babies a good little holiday. Thank you, David and the Kip team, for the amazing work you do! Little Foot cannot wait to hang out with his new best friend David again when we enrol him in the future. Thank you Tara

Our Violet spent 3 weeks at Kip with Olivia and we were absolutely blown away with how far she came in 3 weeks. The regular updates of Vi became a bit of a weekly highlight for us to see her smiling and clearly having a great time. Olivia was honestly brilliant, we couldn't have asked for anything more, our pup has come back far less anxious, far more engaged and the handover session has made us feel like we can continue on the great work that Olivia started. We could not recommend both Kip and Olivia any higher!!

Cannot thank David and the team at Kip enough. Eldin recently came in for the Board and train program as he was reactive with other dogs and became hard for me to control when his emotional state was so high. The difference from drop off to pick up was absolutely amazing. I also now have the confidence to continue the training with the abundance of information I have to refer to. The staff are all lovely and the grounds are spectacular. Highly recommended. And as you can see, the smile on Eldins face says it all.

Great communication and great service. We booked grooming appointment for my two sheebs. Adrian took the time to walk them and get familiar with them so as to make bathing easier. Shout out to Adrian and Martin for taking such good care of our pups! Would recommend and will come back!

Couldn't be happier with MDN Pet Care! They were amazing with our two Groodles. We loved getting regular updates and seeing all the fun they were having in the photos. It's clear these guys are true dog lovers, and we felt completely at ease leaving our pups in their care. We've already booked them again - highly recommend!

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! MDN pet care were attentive, kind, and completely understood my dog’s introverted personality. At nearly 12 years old, my pup needs a little extra patience and care, and they provided both effortlessly. The updates were thoughtful and frequent—I always knew my dog was in good hands. From gentle walks to respecting my pup’s need for quiet downtime, they truly went above and beyond. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which speaks volumes about the quality of care they provided. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.

Martin & Adrian are the best! So caring and attentive to my little 5 month old puppy! Will recommend and definitely be a repeat client! :) Loved the regular updates and hearing about her day when I picked her up after work!

Adrian and Martin are so lovely and welcoming! 😊 My puppy absolutely loves getting groomed there. The team are perfectionists and take their time ensuring your puppy finds it a positive experience. 🐶 They also send you cute pictures as they go with updates can’t recommend enough! 😊 …

As co-parents, we never thought we would have to leave both our babies for three weeks, and there is no one who came to mind but MDN. Adrian has been more than a foster parent to Gogo and Momo. In these last three weeks, we have seen both babies get so comfortable and loving in the company of Adrian, almost so that they are going to miss him badly. Thank you so much for such personalized care of my cats like they are your own. Thank you for sharing continuous updates and sharing their snippets every day. You not only give us reassurance but also make us believe that our babies are in the best hands in Melbourne.❤️

We left our baby Cookie with MDN Pet Care for 43 days! This was the second time we were using MDN team’s services and we’re just as happy with the results as we were the first time. Throughout the course Adrian gave us regular updates and was prompt with his replies. He took amazing care of Cookie. She adjusted well with the other pets there and was in a great condition when we brought her home again. I would 100% recommend MDN Pet Care to anyone looking for a safe home for their fur babies!

I hired Martin and Adrian from MDN Pet Care to look after my pets from my house while I travelled overseas. They did an amazing job following our given instructions and send lots of updates. We came home and I can tell my pets had really built a bond with them. And my house was also safe and sound. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is reliable to pet sit your pets at your house I would recommend MDN Pet Care. I will also be using their grooming services too!

MDN pet care is a great service for looking after your dogs. I’ve been away 2 weeks for holiday and my pet has been looked after so well by Adrian, he’s so nice & sweet! he updated me photos about my dog every day and my pet seemed to be happy being with him. Additionally, the price is so reasonable! I would recommend this service to any dog lovers 👍🏻👌

Adrian and Martin took great care of Billy. He was really happy to spend time in their care, and it was a huge help for us! Will return.

My dog goes once a week and it's the highlight of her week! The attendants are wonderful and caring, they take photos and give me a verbal update when I pick her up. They also have special events e.g. last week "Pups and Prose". I love that I can go to work knowing my dog will be well looked after whilst having a blast.

I wouldn't hesitate to send your dog here - our dog Lola has been attending for months now and she absolutely loves it! Receiving the photo's and videos of her there makes it a great experience for us too, they put your pet in with animals that suit yours so you know they will be having the time of their life whilst there. We love Kip Dog Daycare!!

I was initially impressed with this doggy daycare — the staff were friendly, and it seemed like a great environment for my dog. However, over time, most of the original team left, although there are still some nice people working there. Unfortunately, the daycare started feeling overcrowded, with too many dogs crammed into the same space. My dog was constantly stressed from having other dogs in his face all the time. It just doesn’t feel like the safe, fun environment I signed up for. If your dog needs personal space or a calmer atmosphere, this might not be the best option.

Our dog Finn knows as soon as we get his collar on that it’s his day to go to Kip. He’s so excited all the way there and we can barely hold him back in reception as he just wants to play with his friends. We couldn’t be happier with his care and the photo updates throughout the day are a fantastic bonus.

Five stars for my pup’s experience at doggy day care! From the moment I dropped off my pup, I knew she was in good hands. The staff's genuine love for dogs was evident, and my pup received top-notch care and attention throughout the morning. The facilities were clean, spacious, and equipped with everything a dog could dream of. Most importantly, my pup came home happy, tired, and ready for a good snooze after being filled with playtime and socialisation. I’m incredibly grateful for the wonderful care provided by the team and I highly recommend KIP Doggy Daycare to any pet parent seeking a safe and fun environment for their beloved canine companion

My Dog has been going to kip in Blackburn since she was a pup. She can't wait to get out of the car as she is so excited for a play date. The staff have all been amazing, friendly and caring. I am very happy to recommend Kip.

Love this place for my super beany baby. They manage my high energy lab beautifully and Lola looks forward to seeing them and all of her friends each week.

Absolute 5 stars for the team at KIP Blackburn. They welcomed and looked after my puppy Billy with the utmost care, from Billy's first day you can see how much fun he had and made new mates! I know that he is looking forward to his next day with such a great team and the photo updates are brilliant! Thank you so much.

Very friendly staff and always take good care of my dog. Masiy loves the staff and dog friends at the daycare and sometimes she doesn’t want to go home with me 🤦‍♀️🤭 …

Best daycare! Sybell is always excited to come here to play with her besties 😍😍 The place is clean, staffs are very friendly, attentive and loving. And, thanks for uploading the daily pics. Love them 😄 Excellent grooming too! …

Gwen absolutely loves coming to Kip Bayswater! It’s always her fave day of the week! She has so much fun with all her doggy friends and adores all the staff! Highly recommend this daycare - thanks always Kip for looking after Gwen ☺️🩷 …

My greyhound Inky loves the staff at KIP Bayswater! She goes weekly and comes home ready for a snooze. I get photo/video updates during her stay so I can see how she is getting on. It is evident the staff love the dogs and I’m very grateful to them for the excellent care they provide.

Checked our fur baby in for day care. Were met by a very friendly and professional staff member who explained the process thoroughly. When we picked up, were informed of any issues (good or bad). We could tell by the smile on our dog that she had an enjoyable time. Will definitely use this location again when next in the area.

My boy Merv loves playing with his friends at kip!! great staff they love our doggies and he gets so excited when we go there! recommended to everyone!

My choc lab absolutely loves spending time at Hop and scotch. He has connected well with the ladies who work there and is very social and friendly will all of the dogs. All positive experiences and we would and have already recommended the service to people we know.

Rolo loves his weekly daycare visit to Kip! The staff are very friendly, and have taken the time to build trust with my dog who can be on the nervous side (especially Caylee). They also always take the time to let me know how his day went and what he got up to. It's hard to tire a Kelpie out but Rolo always comes home and puts himself straight to bed. I love seeing the beautiful photos and videos of all the happy pups throughout the day! 🥰🐕

So happy to have Kip Bayswater Dog Daycare close to home, staff are so friendly and welcoming, Chika loves going there literally drags me in the front door with excitement which puts my mind at peace. Video updates are great, one very tired puppy when we get home lol, thank you to all the staff doing a great job, from Chika & mummy 🐶😃 …

My dog has been going to KIP (formally known as Hop&Scotch) for just over 3 years. The staff have been brilliant with my nervous boy. Taking time to gain his trust and now he loves bounding into day care weekly and boy does he sleep well when he gets home.

Hugo my Staffy pup, loves his weekly visits. He started when he was 12 weeks and since then pulls me into the premises with excitement. Only thing that would make things better would be a 650am drop off time for those of us with 7am starts. Keep up the good work team, we both look forward to your happy greetings. Thanks Hugo and Sara

I had my beautiful boy in for a trial last week. He did so well and had the best time. The staff were so friendly and I felt that I had left my Ned in good hands. I am going to book him in on a regular basis. Awesome place

Very well organised, Doug is always polite and happy for a chat during drop off and pick up + knowledgeable. Our Labrador is always happy to stay at Allendale.

Our two dogs have enjoyed staying at Allendale Kennels for a few years now, and it’s always ‘peace of mind’ for us knowing they are in good hands. On a recent holiday abroad, things didn’t go to plan and we found ourselves stuck in a country with flights cancelled and a state of emergency. Doug was more than accommodating for our two dogs and assured us they could stay till we knew when we could get back home safely. It took the extra worry off our shoulders and we can’t praise Doug and the team enough for the additional care they provided both to our dogs and to us. We are so grateful and thank you again, Doug. We came home to happy healthy dogs who looked like they’d been treated like royalty, bathed, and playing around in a big play space. Don’t know what we would do without Allendale Kennels, we wouldn’t choose another place, ever.

We have left our dogs in the care of Allendale many times over the past 20 years. Doug has always been very kind with our dogs. Doug was especially good with one of our old dogs Angus, who normally didn’t like anyone other than us. Calla recently stayed there and was very well looked after. If anyone needs the services of a good kennel or cattery we would gladly recommend Allendale

Doug is so lovely to work with and our large dog is always happy to stay at Allendale. We've been coming back to the kennel for years now, and will continue to do so!

We’ve been using Allendale Boarding Kennels for over a decade now. Our dog gets super excited when we turn in the driveway, and when Doug comes out to greet us again. They always look after her well and shes a happy little thing when we pick her up. Would recommend.

Doug rose early to welcome Lochie and enable us to take an early flight (thanks mate). We have complete trust in the Allendale team to care for, properly feed, exercise and when time allows play chatch me if you can now Lochie is comfortable and accepting of the professional, friendly and welcoming Allendale team.

We have been taking our babies to Allendale Boarding Kennels & Cattery for many, many years and will not go anywhere else. If we couldn’t book them in with Allendale, we wouldn’t go away. Doug and Gail are animal whisperers, they connect to our five special needs babies instantly and know exactly how to care for them and love them like we do at home. They have even looked after Albert our budgie. The kennels are spotlessly clean, warm in winter, cool in summer and always cosy and safe. Their rates exceptional, actually inexpensive for the extra special attention they give. They are masters at giving medications without any stress to the animal, and never charge any extra. Our babies have daily exercise along with lots of caring hugs and cuddles. If needed, Doug will go to your own vet, not just any vet to suit him and did do that once for our 17 YO dachshund, thankfully Doug did so, as we had our baby for another 18months due to his care. Doug and Gail check in on the animals after hours and during the night and have even stayed with them at night to keep them company during a storm or if they just feel they need some extra love and care. Allendale is a loving, friendly home away from home for our furry family. Book in early so you don’t miss out.

A great boarding kennel and cattery. We have left our Poochon there several times, once for a month, and have been very happy with the care and attention our dog has been given. About to leave her again. She has exhibited no ill effects from her time at Allendale. Highly recommended.

Once again and for a long term my dogs went on a holiday to Allendale Kennels. They came home healthy and happy and clean. They were due for a hair trim and their hair was clean and no knots. One has a weak hind leg and he was in fine form with medication given by the owner and the other ones ears clean with the owner having used the drops that I privided, without any fuss or extra cost. These kennels are easily accessible and honest not like some that show they are like a resort when they are not. Very good prices too.

We have been using Allendale Kennels for the last 3 years and have consistently found Doug ans his team to be absolutely excellent in caring for our two furry boys. We have recently returned from an overseas trip which necessitated us leaving the boys at Allendale for a massive 6 week period. Our one dog has over the last year become a really high-needs boy who requires 3 sets of medication morning and evening, and who does not respond at all well to stress and change. We dropped him off with a fair amount of trepidation as to how he would cope this time...but we arrived home to find him in good health and incredibly good spirits. Doug and his team must have given him an enormous amount of attention and TLC to achieve such a great outcome!! Further testament to the care Allendale provides is the way they took our 2nd dog through to our vet when he started to look a bit off-colour during his stay. Wow! That is really going the extra mile! We are extraordinarily grateful to Allendale and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing to board their precious pets 😊
