Huge thank you to Brian and Margaret as they were so patient and flexible with me as it was my first time with zeewoi ! My 3 loved them immediately and they spoiled them rotten, sending me lots of photos! Would have them both in a heartbeat! Thank you again so much for putting me and my dogs at ease !
It was a pleasure hosting Richard a second time. As said in my previous review, Richard is very kind, caring and gentle and the animals took to him straight away. The communication throughout the week was fantastic - any time we had a question or wanted an update, Richard responded very quickly and also sent us photos of our fur babies. I would happily have Richard to sit again.
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?

First time trying Little Dog House. Excellent customer service, fast and efficient. Oskar had an excellent cut, very happy. A little pricey but the old saying, you pay for what you get. Will definitely be back. Before on the right, shaggy, left after.
Our cute little Daisy is quite a shy dog. She is so excited every time we are walking towards Little dog House groomers. Sophie and Roy are so amazing. Daisy loves all the attention she gets there. She smells great and looks so young when we leave from our grooming. Thanks for welcoming our Daisy.
10/10 – Best Doggy Kindy Around! I couldn’t recommend this place more highly. My dog goes 4–5 days a week and absolutely adores Rory and Sophie. They are truly the most beautiful humans, so caring and attentive. It’s such a blessing knowing my dog gets to spend time with them and be so well looked after. You can genuinely feel the love and passion they put into what they do. Thank you for being amazing!
Highly recommend! Rory and the team were super friendly, helpful and made my lil man who can be a bit anxious feel super comfortable and relaxed. Great service.
Highly recommend, There is no better place to take your furbaby, Kingsley is truly welcomed and greeted like he is family. The little dog house is so friendly, accommodating and lovely which makes for a wonderful experience each time, the grooming is top quality and exceptional standards. Super happy and forever appreciative and grateful to have found this place X
Little dog house do the most amazing grooming! Amazing staff that work there, always taking good care of my boy Sunni 🫶🏻 …
The absolute best doggy day care experience by far. The care, the patience, the way they look after the dogs is unmatched. I feel so safe and comfortable dropping off my dog, and he always returns to me so happy and well taken care of.
I would rate these guys 10 stars if I could. My little man goes every 7 weeks and has a ball, not only do they do a perfect groom I know he’s in such good care when they have him. I LOVE hearing how his day was when I pick him up, who his friends were for the day and how much he loves fetch! (It makes me know they really do play with him, because they are right when they say he loves fetch😂) he comes home exhausted which is even better! All played out! thanks again little dog house Australia, Raider always looks forward to his visits!
So pleased with Marli’s groom today! The Little Dog House team have nailed it. Thank you for such great service. I’ve already booked in for rolling 6 week grooms😀 …
Love bringing Zoe Perfect grooming Very nice happy place to leave Zoe I know she is in good hands ...
I can’t rate Doggie Homestayz highly enough! Our dog Alfie, who is super smart but also quite anxious—especially after our recent move—absolutely loved his stay. His anxiety seemed to melt away with all the activities, love and care he received. He had an amazing time playing with the other dogs and loved activities like splashing around in the pool and chasing the hose. Honestly, we were a little concerned about taking him home because he looked like he was having so much fun—possibly more than he does at home! Chantaelle, was also so amazing. We booked very last minute and she went above and beyond to make it work for Alfie. We will forever be grateful! Doggie Homestayz clearly understands how to create a fun, safe, and supportive environment for dogs of all personalities. Alfie came back relaxed and happy, and we couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for a place where your dog will be loved and entertained, this is it!
Doggie Homestayz: A Home Away From Home for Your Furry Friend I recently had the absolute pleasure of entrusting my beloved dog Gus, to the care of Doggie Homestayz, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I dropped off my furry companion, I knew they were in the best possible hands. The family at Doggie Homestayz is truly exceptional. They treated Gus like their own, showering him with love, attention, and care. It was evident that they genuinely cared about his well-being and happiness. The daily updates and photos they sent provided me with peace of mind and a glimpse into his fun-filled days. The facility at Doggie Homestayz were top-notch. The environment was clean, safe, and stimulating. My dog had plenty of space to run and play, both indoors and out. I was particularly impressed with the individualised attention each dog received. It was clear that the family took the time to understand and cater to Gus’s unique personality and needs. When I picked up my dog Gus, he was brimming with excitement and seemed to have had the time of his life. He was clearly well-cared for and happy, which is the most important thing to me. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a place where your furry friend will be treated like family, I highly recommend Doggie Homestayz. Their dedication, professionalism, and love for animals make them the best choice for pet owners. I will definitely be using their services again in the future.
Chantalle and her husband looked after our three pugs for the night and absolutely spoiled and loved them. We were sent many photos of how happy and at home they all felt and it was so warming to see them all smiling. They accommodated the girls to exactly how we do at home and I can not recommend them enough. We will definitely be using their wonderful business again.
Our dog Bonnie had the best time at Doggie Homestayz! It really is a home away from home. She was super spoilt by Chantalle & family. They showed so much love and care. We received regular updates on how she was going. Bonnie will be a regular ☺️🐶 …
Our dogs absolutely love staying here! They get pampered with walks on the beach and have happy playtime at home. They come home with us relaxed and stress free. Cannot recommend highly enough!! Bestest ever!
My cavoodle had the best time at Doggie Homestayz! I had such peace of mind leaving her with Chantalle and loved the daily updates. Thank you so much for loving her like she was your own. Will definitely be back! 😊 …
I can’t express how highly we loved having Doggy Home Stayz have our fur baby. She had a great time, we got photo updates everyday. Couldn’t recommend them enough. The loveliest couple, I don’t trust many people with our little fur baby but they exceeded our expectations ❤️ thank you!
Snow had his first sleep over @doggie homestayz and he was so spoiled with attention!!! I received constant updates and pictures and he seemed so happy- I highly recommend beautiful Chantalle and her family and Snow is looking forward for his next visit 💕❤️ …
Most awesome people ever. Our little dog stayed with Mandy and her beautiful family and I think he was more spoiled there than at home. Chantalle organised everything with very little notice but nothing was a problem for her. I can highly recommend this company and I will definitely use them again!
I’m so glad I found doggie homestayz on my local facebook page. Chantalle and her husband made my pups stay with them so lovely, he had the best time and we were reassured he was having fun with frequent updates. Our pup looked so happy I don’t think he wanted to come home with us. He had everything he needed with Chantal. We feel so relieved that he’ll be in good hands when we go away!
Donna and Farrah from Beyond Boarding Pet Services are simply the best! We needed someone who has a very good understanding of canine behaviour to mind our spoodle, Max, who is a special case. He's a rescue dog with a few issues - he resource guards, has separation anxiety and can get a bit stroppy at night, but most times he's an adorable, affectionate, happy doggo. We've owned Max for just over 12 months and until now we've been reluctant to leave him with anyone as we were nervous of how he would behave particularly at night. We had tickets to Cirque du Soleil, so we needed to figure out what to do with Max at night - leave him alone at home for seven hours, board him overnight in a commercial dog kennel, or have a dog sitter mind him in his own home. We nervously chose the latter not knowing how Max would behave at night. All went well at the start with Max immediately bonding with Farrah giving her lots of loving licks and tail wagging. However, during the course of the evening while my husband and I were being spellbound by the magic of Cirque du Soleil, Max's night time stroppy persona appeared so instead of a tail wagging happy doggy, Max became growly and anti-social. Although disappointed that they were missing out on lots of cuddles, Donna and Farrah calmly accepted his behaviour while texting me updates for which we were very grateful. Thank you Donna and Farrah for putting up with Max's bad manners so calmly and competently. It means a lot to us that you were there for Max and at no time did you loose your cool!
Donna walked our beautiful labrador Charlie for a number of years in Sydney and we miss her kind, compassionate care. Charlie was always super excited to see her and stood at the window waiting for her when I said Donna was coming! We can't recommend her highly enough to take care of your fur babies. She is amazing! Margaret and Perry Griffiths (and Charlie)!
Donna took care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats beautifully while we were overseas for 19 days. We cannot recommend Donna's services highly enough. We have already recommended her to our family and friends and will continue to use her services for any future pet sitting. It made a considerable difference to our holiday knowing that Donna was caring for our fur babies. She sent pictures and updates daily which meant we could enjoy our holiday without stressing about our pets. Donna was so very professional, organized and friendly that it was a pleasure to use her services.
Donna is a lovely, gentle and highly compassionate person. That shows through with how she cares your loved ones, you can rest assured you’re always in the best hands and have the best care. Highly recommend her Servcies!
Our family Dog, Benny is use to company and walks. Having recently bought a caravan we are away now regularly. I called Donna after reading reviews and haven’t looked back. She has such genuine love for him. She speaks kindly to him and he is always happy upon our return. I love knowing that she will be coming to visit him and have a good lengthy walk everyday. Donna always provides 5 star care and service, highly recommend her.
Really happy with Donna from Beyond Boarding Pet Sitting Services! Donna helped me out of a bind over Christmas time… i was a new customer and she was fully booked however she went out of her way to squeeze us in and accommodate our Bearded Dragon Bruno! Whilst Donna was not very familiar with caring for Bearded Dragons she quickly learnt and followed us up with questions whilst we were away rather than just leaving him! She was wonderful with his care and he remained happy which is important with temperamental bearded dragons! Will happily use her service again ☺️
Donna is a warm & engaging person & our pets responded instantly to her calm manner. We return from our holiday to happy & relaxed pets due to the love & care Donna provided. I would recommend Donna's services to anyone considering home pet care. Thank you again Donna
Our pets are like our children so we really want to make sure when we go away that they are well looked after . Both my cat and dog prefer to stay at home so when we found Donna from Beyond Boarding all our worries were answered . They love their visits from Donna when we are away and bonus they get to stay together in the comfort of their own home . We couldn't recommend Donna high enough .
When my new puppy had a horrible dermatitis and needed twice a day bathing, Donna was on hand to give my little Cocker Spaniel all the love and scrubs she needed! I always came home from work to a lovely clean and dry puppy and most of all a very happy puppy! Thanks Donna
Donna is just great with all animals. To have your pets looked after in an environment that they feel comfortable with and love is just the best option. I would highly recommend Beyond Boarding Pet Sitting Service to anybody!
“I recently used Gold Coast Bird Boarding for my parrot’s stay while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier! Caitlin provided everything my bird needed, from food to enrichment toys, and I could tell he was genuinely well cared for. The facility is clean, safe, and designed with the birds’ happiness in mind. I appreciated the updates and photos Caitlin sent, giving me peace of mind. Highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a trustworthy place to leave their feathered friend!”
I recently boarded my bird, Lorri, at this wonderful bird boarding facility, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the staff genuinely cared for their feathered guests. They took the time to get to know Lorri and made sure she felt comfortable and at ease. During her stay, I received regular updates and could tell that she was having a great time. The facility is clean, safe, and equipped with everything a bird could need. Lorri came back home happy, healthy, and even a little more social than before! We’ll definitely be bringing Lorri back here in the future. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a reliable and caring boarding service for their birds!
Gold Coast Bird Boarding was fantastic! Caitlin’s experience with wildlife really shows my cockatiel was in great hands. The setup is perfect, with plenty of toys and activities to keep birds happy and engaged. I was especially impressed with the level of care and attention to detail. It’s clear that the well-being of the birds is top priority. I’ll definitely be booking again next time I’m away
Had my bird Rio stay at Gold Coast Bird Boarding, and she was very well looked after. With an assortment of different foods from seeds, to biscuits, to fruit and veg and leaves; Rio was never left hungry and had plenty of water to drink. Caitlin even managed to teach her a new trick while I was away. I even bought some extra bird food and some toys for Rio. If you're looking to get away for a while and need a place for your bird to stay, Gold Coast Bird Boarding is the place to go
This is the second time I have used Caitlin’s Gold Coast bird boarding business and both times my bird has come back healthier and more playful then ever, really appreciate the effort and attentive care you put into my bird Ollie thank you.
What a fantastic set up, very clean and professional and lots of cool toys to purchase to take home too. Will be recommending your services to anyone with feathered friends who need a holiday away from their humans :)
Gwenny had a great stay with Caitlin, and will definitely be back the next time I travel. Great service!
Kind 🧡 Caring 🧡 Loving 🧡 • All the qualities you need when looking for a fur babysitter! Bridget is all of the above and more. Both my dogs were happy, healthy and cared for beautiful. Would 100% recommend and use again 🙏🏻
A friend recommended Ridgeview about 4yrs ago & now we are a frequent client for our 2 Frenchies. I truely wouldn't take them anywhere else! At least 2 updates with photos each day of them playing is so reassuring. I think they are more spoilt in Aunty Lou's care than ours - sleeping in the house at night & full run of their beautiful acreage with all the other furry friends...even swimming in the pool ... why would they want to leave : ) Highly Recommend
Wow, what a retreat! I was literally jealous of my dog, Tiger. He was so well looked after and by watching the videos and photos that Louise sent each day, he had so much fun, was so loved and he even learned new, positive habits. I’ve never felt more comfortable leaving my dog with strangers (now Tiger’s family). Thank you Aunty Lou 🌸
The best doggy daycare on the Gold Coast! My dog Eddie went to Ridgeview Retreat regularly until we moved interstate recently, and he absolutely loved it. The premises is amazing for dogs with the large yard and pool and the fact that the dogs get taken on pack walks is another big plus. The daily photo updates were great. Also, the owners Stephen and Louise are wonderful people. Highly recommended!
The best of the best! Louise and Stephen are very experienced, and you know from the minute you first arrive that your puppy will be well looked after and well trained in a structured day care environment! Great for puppy development too. Highly recommended & trustworthy 🐾 …
Highly recommended! My border collie pup Buddy really enjoyed his time here playing in the pool and the huge yard. Thank you for all the photos of Buddy having a great time with all the dogs, big and small. Thank you also for the slip leash, and the leash walking training (for Buddy and also to teach me how to use it properly). He is now walking directly next to me with no pulling or any issues. Definitely will be bringing Buddy back at least once per month! Thanks again Louise and Stephen.
I can’t recommend Louise highly enough! As a young couple, our 2 year old German Shepherd is our baby! We have not had a shepherd before (or a big dog for that matter) . Louise has been kind enough to teach us how to best look after our shepherd! Louise and her husband looked after Ziggy while we went on holidays, they were so loving and made sure we felt comfortable leaving ziggy! We were constantly updated with photos and videos! Ziggy instantly respected and listened to Louise, which was so nice! Can’t wait for Ziggy to have her next adventure at Ridgeview Retreat!
We love Louise and Stephen. They often care for our cockerspaniel and she is well loved and cared for by them. We so appreciate their comprehensive service and wonderful photo updates to let us know she's doing well. Couldn't recommend highly enough.
Our Great Dane cross Chilli had the best time at Ridgeview Retreat for her first time away from home. She had a great time playing with other dogs, swimming in the pool and going on a pack walk. Louise and Stephen were lovely, and we loved how they kept us updated with photos and messages throughout her stay.
The best!! Highly recommend. We travel an hour a half to get there as they are so amazing with our little Cavoodle. It is safe and secure, the dogs have loads of fun, go on walks, get lots of cuddles. Plus we receive lots of photos of her day. Thank you for always taking such wonderful care of our Teddy.
Last time I left my young dog at a kennel for 2 days she came home injured & ill. Not knowing where to go in future I asked Justin from Burleigh stockfeed, he'd known Louise & Stephen for years telling me they were the best. Louise heard my concerns & offered a 'trial day' for my young dog. I left her in their care for 1 week, recieved daily updates, photos of her swimming, walking, sleeping & a map of her walking track. The young dog I picked up was calm, confident & in perfect health. I couldnt recommend this duo enough. Thankyou Louise & Stephen for taking care of my 'little wolf', Ridgeview retreat is reliable & trustworthy:) regards Tracey
Meeting Zoey has changed our lives as we are now able to travel and visit family again. We are very attached to our Mini Schauzer, as she is to us, and we would not leave her unless we were totally confident she would be as well looked after as she is at home. Zoey and her daughters Shiloh and Ivy treat her as part of their family and spoil her like we do. Maggie May is a lovely, gentle dog. Zoey is a beautiful person and loves the dogs she cares for. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough. We never worry about our girl when we go away now, knowing she is happy and well cared for. Thank you Zoey!
If you are looking for the Very Best Doggie Sitter, look no further! We are really ‘particular’ with our fur babies and Zoey is perfect! Our doggos absolutely love their day of doggie socialising, and then off to the beach or park. Zoey has a natural gift and so talented with all things dog. Highly recommended, our pack loves Zoey and her family!
Zoey and her family are beautifully warm and caring. My cavoodle Bingo gets excited visiting their house and I know he is in good hands on his holiday (whilst we holiday). I feel relaxed knowing he is okay in a family home.
My boy regularly goes to day care with Zoey. She is absolutely amazing! So friendly, professional and accommodating. I receive occasional update photos & videos from day care beach trips too! Alfie loves going and always has the a fun filled day whether it’s raining or the sun is shining! Thanks Zoey 🤍
Zoe regularly looks after my cocker spaniel, 7 month old Chester and I wouldn’t leave him with anyone else, he is showered with love, hugs and affection and treated like he is part of the family when he visits. Cannot recommend her services highly enough, she sends me regular photo updates whilst I am away and it’s such peace of mind knowing my fur baby is so well looked after and loved whilst I am away. He is sooo excited to get to Zoe’s and doesn’t like leaving so I know he absolutely loves Zoe and her family to bits 💕🐶
Zoey has the most beautiful and loving family that welcomed my 1 yr old Golden Retriever into their home for a week in early September! My boy Toby had the best time and didnt want to leave when I picked him up! Also SO AFFORDABLE! my goodness you can tell she does it out of love for animals, 10000% recommend Walk & Wag to any one as I will NEVER use "pet resorts" ever again after the incredible service she provides for your fur children!
Our beautiful groodle has separation anxiety and not settled in previous day care. She loves other doggies but doesn’t socialise very well if we aren’t there. Suzi Pooch has a lovely relaxed atmosphere with excellent, attentive staff. They have ensured that our girl has plenty of attention and she is settling nicely now. We would highly recommend this lovely facility.
Great daycare, the dogs loved it, and were running to the gate. The dogs went here each day for 4 days while my partner and I attended some attractions at the Gold Coast. They loved their time here, ran eagerly to the gate each morning, and were worn out in the afternoon. Staff are friendly and passionate, care for all the dogs well. Be mindful that because of this, the first day will be a shorter trial day, with owners on call to ensure that all dogs attending are well behaved, and not aggressive etc. before accepting dogs for regular care.
My dog is socially anxious. I’m so grateful for the gentle patience the staff at Suzipooch have shown him. He’ll get there one day!! Thanks guys 😘 …
Thank you so much for the wonderful care that you provide for Franklin (and for wearing him out each day). Cannot recommend this place enough, we always feel happy knowing he is in excellent hands and love how much he genuinely enjoys coming to daycare each week.
I can't recommend Suzi Pooch enough! From the moment we walked in, Rosie and Louis felt right at home. The staff are incredibly friendly and professional, ensuring that both my dogs were comfortable and well-cared for. The facility is clean, welcoming, and designed with dogs' happiness in mind. Rosie enjoyed her grooming session and came out looking absolutely fabulous. Louis had a blast in the daycare area, playing with other dogs and burning off his endless energy. It's such a relief knowing they are in good hands and having a great time. Thank you, Suzi Pooch, for providing a safe and fun environment for my fur babies. We'll definitely be back!
Suzi pooch has the most beautiful atmosphere for my dog harry . On drop off his so excited all the staff are so beautiful and friendly can. It recommend this enough !!!
Absolutely love Suzi Pooch! I used to feel so guilty leaving Winston at home alone whilst I went to work. Now, he's having so much fun at Suzi Pooch, that he barely notices I've come to collect him. The space is incredible, the staff are fabulous and the peace of mind is second to none. Thanks for making us feel so welcome. 5*s from Pete and Winston
This place is amazing, it is like a day spa/theme park for dogs all rolled into one. The staff are super friendly and I know my dog is in good hands. My puppy comes home so tired after all the fun he has at Suzi Pooch. Highly recommend.
My dog has been attending Suzi Pooch Doggy Daycare a few days per week, and the staff there are very knowledgeable and professional. My dog used to be quite shy around humans, but in the short time he has been going to daycare, he has improved so much that I can now walk down the street without him reacting negatively.
My little Henry LOVES Suzi Pooch! He may be an old man in dog years but he plays like a puppy again with all his new friends. The staff are incredibly loving and caring and the facility is so clean (heaven). What more could you ask for?
Jacqui is the best. So kind and caring for our furbaby. Above and beyond. Ruby loves her.
Thank you Jacqui for taking such good care of our 14 year old Choccy lab Bella, we knew she would be in good hands. 🐾 …
