I was thrilled to have Alena stay with my dogs. She was even kind enough to accommodate 2 extra pups that needed a sitter which was such a load off everyone's minds. I felt confident everyone was in excellent care so I could relax and enjoy my trip. I would highly recommend Alena and would have her back again.
Catalina is full of energy and positive. It was great to overlap a night on the front and back ends of our trip and get to know her. She and her dog, Joplin, quickly made friends with our dog and learned to communicate with our parrot. Together with our dog, Maisie, they went on several walks a day including some "polar bear" morning swims during their February stay. Our dog was definitely well exercised and loved. The bird and house were well cared for. We returned to a clean home and happy pets. We'd be glad to have Catalina and Joplin back to stay.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 35 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
Thank you Canine Club for doing a fantastic job, Juno loves her weekly walks with you. You are reliable and we value your service tremendously. Especially with your suggestion to have a doggy play date during the last rainy period as Juno was so depressed through lack of fun and exercise. Keep doing what you do as you do it so well.
I can’t speak highly enough of Oodles. We originally had our Cavoodle at another daycare which was a mistake. The staff at Oodles are really kind and compassionate and make an effort to bond with the dogs so they (and you) feel comfortable there. It’s fully transparent and you can see what the dogs are up to throughout the day on Instagram. There’s a wide range of ever-changing activities so the dogs are always mentally and physically exhausted when they come home. There’s an emphasis on fun as well as learning, so it’s more relaxed and not like a bootcamp like other daycares. It’s competitively priced and conveniently located too
Ruby used to attend a different daycare before I found Oodles and More, and I'm so glad that we found them. Viv, the owner has created a team of lovely carers who treat my Ruby like she's their own. I know that Ruby loves the attention she gets and all of the activities (especially getting treats and cuddles) and I really appreciate being able to see on Instagram what fun she's up to. Ruby has been at Oodles and More now for around two years and I highly recommend them.
Our dog (Popcorn) absolutely loves this place! The staff always post updates on Insta to see what the dogs get up to and the dogs always look like they’re having so much fun. They pay so much attention to each and every dog to make sure even the introverted ones are having a great time. 110% recommend this place!
I've tried four different doggy day cares around Brisbane, and Oodles and More is by far the best! My dog used to be terrified of people, but since starting at Oodles, her behaviour has improved dramatically. Now, she not only loves the carers at the day care but also actively seeks out pats from strangers who smile at her on walks. It's been an incredible transformation. Highly recommend Oodles and More for any dog owner!
Oodles and More are #1 in Brisbane. I send both my Cavoodles Boston (2.5 y) and Atlas (1y) at least once a week. They love it. Boston starts crying with excitement when we are still a few hundred meters away (he knows). I feel confident they are treated with the same love and care as they are at home but with loads more fun and activities. The price is affordable and competitive and being able to watch updates throughout the day online is amazing!! Can’t go anywhere else!
Sasha loves his days at Oodles and More. There is so much to do, including special sniffing activities, puppychinos and all sorts of fun play. I love the gorgeous feeds on Instagram too. He always comes home such a tired and happy boy. I have recommended Oodles to my friend for her two babies (Cloud and Tilly) and she is sooo happy that they now have the stimulation they need to put an end to undesirable behaviours at home. Thank you to Vivienne and all her lovely staff who always take such great care of our pooches.
Our 9month old Cavoodle Ollie has been going to Oodles and More every week for 6 months now and he absolutely loves Vivienne and the team. He is so excited upon arrival to see his doggy friends, enjoys endless play and participates in the activities, special events, enrichment time and cuddles. He has learnt how to socialise with other dogs and comes home to rest after his fun filled day. We love the care the Oodles team give and love sending him to doggy daycare .
My dog Albi absolutely loves attending Oodles and More! We've been sending him since he was a puppy, and are so impressed! He always comes home with a huge smile on his face yet one sleepy boy from adventuring all day which is exactly what we want. We have also found that he is so much more confident with other dogs in general now which is so great to see. I love watching the Instagram stories throughout the day to see what he gets up to. Couldn't recommend Viv and the girls at Oodles any more, they are all so friendly and super caring towards the pups!
I send my anxious sausage dog to Oodles and the staff have been so accomodating. Everyone is lovely! They play games and spend time with your pup and even give you little updates at the end of the day. Craft day is a must! Viv is excellent and has SO many great tips and recommendations. Wouldn’t go anywhere else :)
My little girl has the best time ever at oodles everyday! To her it is the most fun filled day, she’s enriched, social and well and truly loves and adores the amazing team that work there. Viv is very accomodating and I instantly feel at ease knowing my girl is in completely safe and loving hands. Thank you for being my life saviours, from a separation anxiety dog mum ❤️
First time user. Was really easy to get dogs registered. Staff were delightful. Both of my dogs clearly had a ball and were obviously well cared for. I'm sure both my puppies can't wait to go back. Recommend Little Buddies very highly. Will be using them many many times in the future. Fantastic experience
My pup had 10 days boarding at this place, not sure what happened to him, when we picked him up, red/dark red spots all over his body including back and belly, we had to visit vet the next day, see photos. The owner said they provided bath/grooming for dogs staying over 10 days, apparently this is not the case for my pup. They never brushed him during boarding also so knots all over the body. Will never come back and do no recommendation this place to anyone.
Neems and John are friendly, caring, and truly love dogs. The facility is clean, safe, and full of fun activities, and they send regular updates to keep you in the loop. My dog always comes home happy, tired, and excited to go back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable, loving daycare for their pup!
I highly recommend Little Buddies for dog boarding! Ellie had a fantastic time and was treated with so much care and love. The play area is spacious and well-designed, providing plenty of fun for the dogs. The staff was attentive and ensured Ellie was safe and happy. She can't wait to return! ❤️
As the owner of a Furbaby that is a little anxious, I was struggling to find a carer that I felt comfortable with. John was very understanding of my concerns and after chatting for a while I booked Charlie in for a daycare day to see how she adapted, I was very impressed. Charlie has just come home from her first holiday at Little Buddies and she loved it. I received daily updates and photos which was nice to see that she was happy and making lots of new friends. I can’t thank the team at Little Buddies enough. We are already planning Charlies next staycation.
Banjo our Kelpie went to stay at Little Buddies for 4 days recently. He had a great time. We loved getting pictures of him hanging out with the other dogs and the updates on how he was doing. He looked so happy. He came home happy and excited after his own little holiday. Thanks so much to the Little Buddies team. I would highly recommend them. Banjo is actually going to stay over for the night again next weekend. Louise
Our two dogs stayed with Little Buddies for a weekend. At drop off we felt very comfortable leaving them with the team, they were professional and you can tell that they love dogs. One of our pups required some extra care and medication, and she was well taken care of. We got regular updates and pictures of them playing which put us at ease knowing they were having fun. Easy pick up and drop off, close location compared to other kennels. Overall we are very happy with the service and we will be using Little Buddies next time we go away. Thanks to the team again for their care of Missy and Scout!
We are so lucky and grateful to have found Little Buddies. Fantastic place and people who give your pup all the attention and love needed to make them feel comfortable when away from home. We could immediately tell Taco loved it, from the photos and how exhausted he was when we picked him up. The little Buddies team are responsive to email, messages, and availability to make everything easier when you need.
Amazing, amazing, amazing my pup just loves Little Buddy’s doggy daycare. She is always happy when I pick her up, and tied out from playing with her friends and doing activities. The pick up and drop off service is an awesome addition and nothing seems too much trouble for the wonderful kind and caring staff.
So happy we found Little Buddies! Neems and John are so lovely. I found Little Buddies initially as a place to put the pups when I have a busy work day. The impact on our life has been huge. Previously if I’m busy then the pups are naughty all night and prevent us from sleeping. After a day at little buddies I can confirm that they are happy and tired out. It’s good for them to have mental and social stimulation. I was initially very nervous because one of our dogs is very small and can be nervous around other dogs but I was very assured by the care that they took and loved seeing the updates. They had their first sleepover on the weekend and they loved it! Definitely our go to moving forward. Thank you Little Buddies! (Photo indicates tired and happy dogs)
Mik is an amazing pet sitter! She kept me informed the whole time I was away, with lots of photo updates to put my mind at ease that my pup was being well looked after. She was very accomodating around pick up and drop off times and my pup absolutely loved her! He took to her straight away and loved the cuddles. Mikayla has such a natural gift with animals and is very kind and responsive. I am booking her again for an upcoming holiday and feel confident my pup is in good hands 🥰
Absolutely loved Mikayla’s service ! I have a toy poodle that can act strange at times but Mikayla ensured she was able to handle it and she definitely did! So kind, and reliable, definitely recommend :)))
Our dogs Angus and Friday have been going to Paws and Relax for nearly 5 and 4 years respectively. They both started in puppy school there and then started going to doggy daycare. The Paws and Relax staff really love your dogs, they are genuinely interested in them and they have built a beautiful inclusive and respectful community with their clients. My dogs love it so much that sometimes the staff have to pretend they’re coming home with us in order to get them to walk to the car at the end of the day. Your pets will be in safe and caring hands while they’re in daycare.
Beautiful grooming, very friendly and welcoming. My little dog became fearful of grooming and so I had to find a new groomer. I am so grateful to have found Paws and Relax. They treat him nicely and he is no longer scared, and he looks amazing. Thank you !
Best doggy daycare. My dog has been going here for over 4 years. He's a very anxious dog but he loves P&R because the team their are so loving and gentle. They know their stuff about dog behaviour and create a welcoming, fun and safe environment for all the dogs. I love that they take a fear free approach to everything. The grooming service is also excellent and so convenient to be able to have that done during the day when he's already there. I don't have to try to get grooming separately on weekends. I'd give this business 10 stars if I could. Fantastic team and an important part of the village that helps me ensure my dog is living his best life.
My sausage dog absolutely loves going to day care and being groomed at Paws and Relax! The educators absolutely adore their pooch students and treat them like their own babies. I especially love the themed dress up days and the regular photos and videos posted throughout the day. The grooming team are very skilled and caring, providing a wonderful experience for doggies.
Paws & Relax are Brisbane’s #1 doggy daycare. I have three fur kids with very different personalities and the P&R team work with them through positive engagement and needless to say the trio love their daycare days. I wouldn’t send them anywhere else! Thank you P&R team
The most wonderful haven for dogs with busy parents!!! Tegan has always been the most wonderful fountain of knowledge always willing to offer advice to dog parents who need it. Their social media always makes me laugh and brightens my day and I wish all dogs got to have as much fun as the P&R family do!
The most trustworthy and reliable place I’ve sent my Cavoodle! We have tried multiple daycares for our Cavoodle all over Brisbane and this is the only one we would ever send him too. The staff are amazing and extremely supportive with making Archie feel comfortable as he does suffer with separation anxiety. Archie also gets groomed here and it’s been 10/10 every time unlike other places we have tried. We get photo updates during the day and a summary on pick up of how his day went. Big thanks to the whole Paws & Relax team!
The team at Paws and Relax are amazing! Max gets groomed there and is always a happy little guy when we pick him up. He also loves heading into daycare and has a great time. We get updates throughout the day from the Facebook group too!
The team at Paws & Relax were an absolute lifesaver when we moved to Brisbane with our Golden Retriever puppy and were in between AirBNB's and rentals. Again, when we got our second GR that had special medical requirements, they went above and beyond to provide amazing care. Thank you for all that you do!
My 12-year-old rescue dog, Knox was highly anxious with severe separation anxiety. I was lucky enough to get Knox a place at Paws and Relax, and they were fantastic with him. They assessed him on a couple of hourly visits, then put him in 1/2 day once per week until they felt he was comfortable and ready to stay longer and/or more frequently. Knox absolutely thrived there; he would scratch at the door to go in whereas at first he scratched to get out. He felt safe, loved and enjoyed being with the pack. It changed not only his life, but also mine...for the better! Knox sadly passed away a couple of months ago, but I'll always be grateful for the wonderful care he received at Paws and Relax. They are testament to what a great business really is.
Wonderful, knowledgeable, professional trainers. Our dog is much better behaved and we have the confidence to manage her in various situations. Daniel always arrived with a smile and I highly recommend!!
Kyle and Daniel have both been amazing with teaching us behavioral lessons for our four dogs. The company we have used for dog walking, dog sitting, and dog training. All three experiences were 10 out of 10!! We would happily recommend Mad Dogs for anyone who is considering these services. You will be in safe hands!
Our young whippet is having the time of her life , socializing with other dogs and expending her puppy energy each day with Mad Dogs. She comes home happy and exhausted and we love looking at (amazing) photos of her enjoying herself each trip. Kyle, Abbey and the team are wonderful . We are so glad to have found you.
Kyle and his team are incredibly professional, communicative and friendly. My dog Timmy is very friendly and social but after a few concerning run ins at local dog parks, I began to feel anxiety with socialising him but didn't want to isolate him either. MDAE really took the time to learn about Timmy and offers the opportunity for him to play in with a small group of other like minded dogs under a professionals supervision. He absolutely adores his regular walker and always comes back happy and tired. They post adorable pictures of the outing on their Instagram and it's honestly a highlight of my day to see Timmy having a fantastic time! (See below) Highly recommend!
I would be surprised if I ever saw anything less than 5 STARS for these amazing people. Kyle and Leticia have been walking Our dog every weekday for the past 4 months and we have felt very happy and comfortable with the service we receive. Often times they will go above and beyond for us providing each dog with their own individual treatment. They have even worked with us to have our pup develop better habits and also come to help us out on what I consider short notice. I really feel like I can truly rely on them and trust them immensely. Here are a few examples of the amazing pictures we receive from them on a daily basis. If you are looking for an amazing, top quality service, then look no further...you have found it.
MDAE were exceptional with me and my dog Yalla. From the first contact with Kyle they were super fast in getting back to me. Daniel was the trainer and I was impressed with the care and attention he had on explaining to us the methods and the reasons to use them. I only wished I had contacted them sooner!!! Yalla’s behaviour has improved a lot on our walks since then. Awesome work they do and I can definitely recommend!
Kyle has been fantastic to deal with from the very first phone call. Daniel’s training has made such a difference to being able to walk our Border Collie without the pulling and stress. The communication the whole way along has been excellent with regular updates and we are so glad we decided to get some help with training Marmalade. She has made so much progress already. Big thanks to Mad Dogs & Englishman!
MadDogs Brisbane (Kyle and Daniel) are GREAT! They really helped us with our doggie. He stopped pulling during walks and I can see he is excited and happy about being trained! (Ps: and you can get nice pics as bonus ☺️)
Highly recommend! We have been really happy with how our dog has progressed with Mad Dogs and Englishman, and Daniel has been an excellent trainer. We have had some pretty average experiences with a variety of other companies and strongly advise you give these guys a go!
OMG Kyle is Ahhhhmazing <3 He is so incredibly patient, knowledgable & clearly has a deep love of doggos. I have been to other trainers & felt that I was being reprimanded for my lack of knowledge, but Kyle was supportive, kind & very positive. I was blown away with our session & would HIGHLY recommend him for ANY training needs you may have <3 Josie & I thank you Kyle !
My dog has been with Doggi for over a year now and it has been the best decision! She loves going and her behaviour and confidence has improved so much. Laura and the team are so experienced and provide thoughtful and tailored guidance. The Doggi Cakes are also a fave with my pup and so cute! We would be lost without Doggi!
I’ve been taking my pups to Doggi for almost a few years now and am amazed at how well mannered and calmer they are now. Laura is a dog behavioural specialist so she provides the dogs with structure throughout the day (pack walk, agility course, crate nap time and playtime outside) and ensures they have a calm and safe environment to socialise with other dogs. So many other dog facilities don’t focus on this enough and therefore reinforce unwanted behaviours and interactions. Laura also provides you with amazing tips and education if you’re ever wanting to work on certain behaviours with your pup. I feel my pups are well-looked after when at Doggi and they always have such a positive experience :) Would definitely recommend Doggi!
Our dog has been going to Doggi for a few months now! Not only have we learnt so much about helping our dog become more confident and content, but he absolutely loves going to day care and socialising with other dogs in a safe environment! We often say Laura is our dog guardian angel - she’s really helped us help our anxious four legged family member.
Laura and her team are incredible at caring for our cavoodle Maui! Doggi has the most beautiful and enriching space to care for pups and we love getting tips on continuing the structure at home, this has helped our dog become more confident and social. Highly recommend, definitely the best Doggi daycare in town!
Doggi has been invaluable to us as we’ve navigated the journey of adopting our first family puppy. Laura has taught us so much about our boy’s behaviours and given us strategies to help him become a happy, but calm pet.
When I adopted an older dog, Doggi provided the training and educated I needed to help my dog build confidence and become balanced and relaxed. I love my dog's day care days - I feel so good knowing my dog is in Laura's care.
My dog loves attending doggi school! Laura has taught us so much about dog behaviour which has helped us help our dog become a calmer yet confident boy.
We take our miniature schnauzer Monty for doggy day care at Doggi, as well as to see Laura for behavioural advice. The space for the dogs is like no other, and the fact it is run by a behavioural specialist is even better! We have seen improvements in our dog’s behaviour at home thanks to Laura’s advice, and we know we can always trust Monty to have an enjoyable day away from home at Doggi. Highly recommend.
Not sure where we would be without Doggi! Laura and the team have been pivotal with our dog. He is also a big fan and can't stop wagging his tail on arrival.
I have noticed a huge change in Ned since he started attending Doggi. Laura’s consistent feedback provides families with achievable behavioural goals to work on at home and following these will ensure you have a well behaved family member forever. I love that Ned thinks he’s having a fun day with friends but he’s actually learning how to be the goodest boy! Start young and implement the recommended strategies at home for the best success!
My Blossom is a regular attendee of Gabba Doggy Daycare and always has the best time. Due to an unfortunate incident my poor girl suffered from some PTSD that made her very nervous and reactive. GDDC worked with me to help work on this and build her confidence back up, and now she’s finally back to her old self. She loves Rory in particular and gets so excited to leave the house when he comes to pick her up. She always comes home tuckered out and happy. She’s also made a bunch of doggy friends. I love seeing the photos on their Instagram of her having a great time. Thanks so much for always taking good care of my girl
The staff are incredible! My border collie STELLA prefers human company to other dogs, and the staff spent the entire day interacting with her. She came home very happy.Thank you!!
The team here have taken great care of my cocker spaniel. They take great attention to his behaviour and ensured that his environment is appropriate for his needs. He looks forward to going there each week.
Look at that happy face! We totally didn't regret the 30+ min drive to and another 30+ min drive back after seeing how happy he was when we picked him up. He had so much fun that he passed out on the way back home and continued sleeping thru his dinner time. I especially like the strict rules and SOP the team at Gabba had followed to ensure that the dogs are comfortable, while ensuring the safety of the dogs and the owners. You can really see the love and dedication they have in their roles/jobs. Being a protective pawrent myself, I highly recommend anyone and everyone this doggy daycare for their precious puppy/dog! We will definitely be planning and signing him up for more daycare with them.
Amazing place to bring your fur babies! The staff are amazing. They have all the training and experience to look after your pup and well as help with any questions you might have or help with training. The best part is seeing what your fur baby got up to on the instagram story. Is an amazing feeling knowing the staff love your dog just as much as you do ❤️
We've recently moved to the area and decided to give Gabba Doggy Daycare a go, our dog is slightly nervous meeting people for the first time however the moment we walked in the staff recognized this and adjusted their behaviour to suit. We had a catch up in the day about how Cleo was going and when I picked her up had a good chat about how the day went. Certainly recommend and Cleo will be back!
Our mini dachshund Ralphy loves Gabba Doggy Daycare! It was daunting leaving our little boy for the day but the team at GDDC are amazing! We love knowing he’s in a safe space, is well looked after and never deprived of cuddles and fun & the picture updates are also a highlight! Would highly recommend sending your fur babies here!
Ellie absolutely loves it there. The staff are amazing. They are dedicated and love her like I do. She loves them back which is evident every morning by the happy jumps and big tail wags. It's her home away from home.
These guys always great Knox (tiny old man sausage dog) immediately by name and a great big smile. I’m sure the dogs get a lot of attention and play as Knox is always popped by the time pick up comes along. So glad I signed up for a free trail, as he my dachshund has become a regular since!
In peak hour traffic each morning driving past I always see the dogs so excited to be dropped off here each day. They are so eager and happy to get inside so it must be great! Thanks for making the dogs happy, which makes the morning commute better.
