Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Diane and Les were excellent pet and house sitters. Jet was a very happy dog when we returned and Diane had shared many photos of their days together while we were away on holiday. The house was very clean and tidy when we returned and some milk , bread and sweet treats had been left for us, which were very welcome after our 2 long flights home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Diane and Les as sitters for your home and pets, everything was done to a high standard and Jet was happy in his usual environment , which is all we wished for. Many thanks to you both.
Julia
Ryan was one of our best sitters we’ve had! Ryan is so lovely to chat with and we looked forward to meeting him before our trip. He was organized and communicated his plans clearly with us and was easy to communicate with while we were away. Our dog took to him immediately and so we knew we could relax while away. Our home was in great shape when we returned and it was nice to get a debrief from him as well. We’d love to have Ryan back anytime, and so would Steve (our dog)!

Angela Gandolfo and Erica Piazza came to stay at our house while we were away on vacation for two weeks. Our two dogs are a handful, but these two lovely women took such good care of them. They spoiled them even more than we do, which is perfect. We got photos every day, and when we came home our house was tidy and there were clean sheets on the bed. I couldn't have asked for better house and pet sitters than these two women. They communicated well with us, and if they had questions, they asked. It was a pleasure to work with both Angela and Erica. We had to cut our vacation short because of a death in the family. It was really stressful, but once again, Angela and Erica were flexible and understanding. It made a difficult time easier, knowing that things at home were being managed so well. I'm hoping that if we ever have to go away again for such a long time, I will be able to get these two back here again! (hint hint) Thank you, Angela and Erica!
Kim & Brian
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Sally & Andy
Lori is the best of the best! I would recommend her 100 times over! Lori is great at communicating and our dogs were extremely happy. She was very attuned to our dog’s anxiety and did a great job making the dogs feel safe and loved. The house was spotless when we returned. Lori also had the job of taking care of my numerous plants. I have to say the plants look better when I got home than they did before I left😂 Lori has a green thumb. Lori is so kind and just a wonderful person. Rest assured if you choose her as your sitter your dog and home are in the best hands. Thank you again, Lori! Blessings!
Stewart
Joanna and David were wonderful sitters for our dog Broderick and our apartment. Before starting to sit for us they took time to come and meet Broderick which we were very appreciative of. During their time sitting for Broderick we got great updates every day and wonderful photos of our pup, and they were very responsive whenever needed. When we got back home we found a happy puppy, healthy plants, and a spotlessly clean apartment - they had even taken the time to wash sheets and towels and left us a kind thank you note. We would have them sit for us again in a heartbeat!
Cynthia
If you need a sitter don’t hesitate to pick Vanessa, I highly recommend her. She cared for our fur baby for two weeks and received the care and attention she needed. We came back to a very happy pup and clean home which is awesome after coming back from a long trip. I received texts and pictures of our dog while we were gone which gave us peace of mind. You could tell right from the start that she genuinely loves animals and will care for them as if they are hers. I will continue to use her as my pet sitter if she’s available. All I can say is she is a wonderful person!!
JoAnn
Hamsa was very quick to respond in all communication. She was prompt on her arrival and listened carefully to our detailed instructions about the house and dogs. While we were away the amount of communication between us was just right. When we arrived home the dogs were happy and the house was in order. A good sign that a dog sitter paid lots of attention to the pups is when we see a bit of depression set in after a dog sitter departs - this did occur after Hamsa left our home She is a very caring and nurturing individual.
Caroline
We were so happy with Lynda's care for our senior pup. Lynda was extremely accommodating with the key hand over situation we had considering our early flights out of Berlin. She was easy to coordinate with and made this part of the holiday very smooth. We could also tell Sesame was in the best care. We received updates and photos of Sesame on walks and getting cuddles. We know Sesame can be sassy sometimes but Lynda was great with her little attitudes and handled her with ease. It was also really heart warming to see that Lynda truly enjoyed her time with Sesame and created a strong bond with her. We love to know that our dog is loved and treated with the care we would give her if we were home. Both my partner and I were able to fully enjoy our holiday as we knew from updates that Sesame and Lynda were doing well. Our apartment was clean and tidy when we returned and the sheets had also been washed. We would definitely have Lynda back and would recommend her to anyone else looking for an experienced sitter to stay with your pet.

Charlie (our puppy) came back so happy, in fact he didn't want to leave, it was like 'mummy who'? Easy to deal with. They are professional yet have clear boundaries which is imperative i believe. It makes me feel reassured. Friendly and understanding. They make you feel safe with your dog in their hands. We will continue to bring Charlie here as I know he is properly cared for. Thanks guys.
Hi Everyone I booked my K9 & paid half of deposit a week prior then on arrival paid the balance. We then got my dog out of the car & he was very anxious & excited, the proprietor had a lead & made an attempt to put it around his neck but he barked a bit! She made a decision not to take him after just a few minutes,he wasn’t growling or hackles? I was a bit shocked as he’s stayed before & at many kennels. I asked for a refund but it was a blatant NO! Check your fine print she said🤷♂️This really doesn’t seem fair as I had just driven an hour & she was quick to take my money on arrival. Maybe they should change the fine print & put the dog in the kennel & then pay. Regards Out of pocket $154 & plans ruined
If I could give 0 stars I would!! Absolutely hands down the WORST service I’ve ever received. Daylight robbery taking my money then deciding they didn’t want to take my dog on arrival and refused to give my money back. Do not take your dog here unless you’ve got a lap dog or they won’t accept it or give your money back.
I am very disappointed with this kennel service and the staffs un professionalism. I advise you do not take your beloved pet here as my dog has arrived back home in quite an unpleasant state. Thankyou
Ever since I took my dog here my dog he has never wanted to go back to a kennel. Very unprofessional staff and urge people not to book here as my dog has trauma and hasn't been the same since coming home
Georgie was amazing. How our boy came back to us, you can tell he's had a blast. Will send him there again.
Staff I dealt with were very unprofessional. Highly disappointed as I got referred here from a friend
Absolutely wonderful place to send your beloved furbabies! The facilities are brilliant and Georgie and Jess are so dedicated to ensuring your pooch receives the best care. My main man Frankie loved every minute he was there!
I highly recommend Down South Boarding Kennels, I have now had a number of dealings with the new owners Georgie and Jess and they have all been exceptional. My border collie puppy regularly attends daycare at DSBK and I love that he's excited and runs straight to Georgie and Jess when I drop him off each morning. He always comes home happy and exhausted from having spent the day playing with other dogs. I know he is not only safe but also enjoying himself with Georgie and Jess.
It was our dogs first time at a boarding kennels - the ladies were so kind to my little one. A home away from home!

This is Daisy! Daisy spent a night at ticketyboo boarding kennels and loved it. Lots of room to run and socialise with other pups. Brilliant owner. Highly recommend.
Our pet sitter cancelled on us last minute and these guys were able to help us out with no issue. They are SO lovely and Riley obviously had a really awesome time with them. Highly recommend taking your dog here and we will definately be using again when we're in the area! Thankyou again!
Have taken my dog here several times while we were away. He's very nervous around other dogs but within a day they have him out and about interacting with the other dogs. He always comes home with a big smile on his face.
First time putting our dogs in a kennel and the owners were fantastic. They made accomodations for our highly anxious dog. Would recommend!
Best place! We had to board our 5 month old pup unexpectedly and we’re obviously stressed about having to do so. However, our little LuLu didn’t want to come home with us! Owners looked after her as if she was their own and it was very obvious that they loved dogs and knew what they were doing. We got back a very happy and content pup. Highly recommend.
We picked our dog Mia up today after a 5 days stay and couldn't be happier with the service Steve and Gaye provide for all the dogs. They made sure she is well fed and happy. They even managed to find a dog friend for our very reactiv, easily overstimulated dog. 5 stars from us and we would always sent our dogs there again.
Happy doggy ❤ It was a little hard to find the kennel due to road works, but our pupster was well looked after over the weekend. She was worn out when we got home and had obviously had fun with her doggie friends.
First time coming here, the owner are so lovely. They do amazing, my boy Ardi seemed to not want to come home. Had his head out the window looking back to stay. We will definitely be back soon! 😇 …
Just picked up our boy Rosco Rosco has been going for 3 years now He doesn't stress and looks very happy when we pick him up . Nothing is any trouble with Gaye and Steve. Our boy doesn't really settle in kennels but here he jumps out the car and doesn't look back . Very happy to see him go in Would totally recommend Ticketyboo for your dog . Thanks guys Lea
Our second visit was great. We were so happy the first time last year that we took our 2 back. The owners asked questioned about their health, socialising and eating and genuinely cared when we checked them in. Such friendly and accommodating service. Plus our dogs came home very happy again! We will always bring our dogs back here when we visit family in the south.

First time I’ve used the kennels, for my little dog, Bobby ( 9yrs) Cannot fault it… Clean, secure and well looked after kennels.. Kath was amazing, and great to deal with, she looked after and made sure all Bobby’s needs were met….. It was so lovely when we collected Bobby he had been walked and was socialising with other little dogs in the grassy play area….. Absolutely the best kennels I have used for my dog and would highly recommend Thanks Kath x
So happy we chose Bushlands Pet Retreat for our boy's first "holiday". Beautiful bush property, great people and we are so appreciative he's come home happy and healthy! Thanks so much for taking such great care of him 😊 …
Very, very happy with the facilities and the care my two cats obviously received. One is a very timid rescue, and she came home clean, not too stressed and had been eating. Will be booking again 😊 …
Fabulous setup for cats (& dogs too). Very well fed & clean as. Especially love the monitoring system and the inside to outside areas for them. My cat will definitely stay here when she's in the area. Well done Bushlands Pet Retreat, awesome haven for pet's holidays.
Cath and Bill, thankyou for always taking such wonderful care of our beautiful dog Dusty. We have been coming for 8 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommended.
Wonderful place. We have been regular clients for years. Our cat is always in safe, kind and competent hands whenever he stays at Bushlands. The facilities and standard of care are first class. Highly recommended.
After having a previous bad experience with a local kennel, we felt very lucky to have found Bushlands Pet Retreat. The owners are very caring and professional and having a vet as one of the owners is a plus. We felt that our dog was happy and well cared on all the occasions that we picked him up. We would not hesitate to use their services again in the future.
Absolutely fabulous place! Clean, safe, well organised and outstanding care. No kennel stacking or overcrowding. After trying two other places down South, it was so lovely to have our puppy come home calm, relaxed and not sick. Couldn't be happier.
This is not a kennel or cattery, it is a pet hotel. Air-conditioned, inside-outside areas and caring and friendly staff. This is the place if you love your pets.
I 100% trust my dogs are in the best hands when they visit Bushlands. They always look great when they come home and sometimes I have to convince my Border Collie to leave and come home. Great set up in a wonderful bush setting. They are fed a healthy and balanced prime diet and have plenty of recreation time. If I could give an extra star for awesomeness I totally would

Coralie and Ralph looked after our home and blue heeler, Zeus, for just over 2 weeks while my husband and I went travelling. We loved that we got regular updates and videos of him having a blast going for walks and playing ball (his favourite!) - it made us feel at ease knowing he was happy while we were gone. Unfortunately, just prior to us arriving home, Zeus picked up a bug and became unwell but Coralie and Ralph wasted no time in getting Zeus into the vet so he could be checked over and treated, keeping us in the loop the whole time. Even with us arriving home a day earlier than expected, the house and yard were immaculate and Zeus was on the mend. I can’t recommend Coralie and Ralph enough - they treated our boy as if he were their own which is exactly what every pawrent wants! We will be back in touch next time we go on holidays. 😊
I can't recommend Ralph and Coralie highly enough. We have trusted them to look after our family dog, cat, chickens and house and we can go away stress free knowing they will keep an eye on our property and feed our pets. They are passionate animal lovers and will look after your pets as well as you would. I will never use a boarding kennel or cattery again. The rates are very reasonable and I feel we get great value for our money.
