Find trusted dog boarding near you

Highly recommend Karen - If you love your pets and want the best care for them in your absence, then do not hesitate in contacting the carer!!When my husband I decided to take the trip of a lifetime to Europe for five weeks, needless to say we were very excited.....until we both stopped for a moment and thought "what do we do with the dogs"Lenni & Salli are not only our pets, they are our family and they live in a comfortable home filled with love and attention. I could not travel for five weeks unless I could be satisfied that the dogs would be cared for with that same love and attention.So the challenge began to find a carer for our dogs... Over the next few weeks my husband and I visited the best kennels in Melbourne, we tried a number of pet minding sites and met with quite a few carers, always walking away not feeling a connection with the carers and more importantly knowing the dogs did not feel that same connection ( Lenni our Vizsla is a little overweight (maybe a tad more than a little Lol) and would always need a bit of a lift onto the back of the Ute into his cage. On one visit to a potential carer, Lenni ran from her house, jumped up into the back of the Ute and placed himself into the cage unassisted....LOL,)Two weeks before we were due to leave for our holiday I was filled with anxiety trying to decide what to do with the dogs....and then a miracle happened, I came across Karen's profile on Pawshake and felt an instant connection to this women. We texted for a couple of days and decided to have a meet and greet with the dogs. The moment we all met Karen (including the dogs) we knew she was the woman who would care for our dogs with the same love that we cared for them. The photos that Karen sent to us while we were away were both comforting and reassuring that the dogs were having the time of their life on the farm.Karen allowed us the opportunity to have a wonderful holiday, and for that we will be very grateful.The dogs are now a permanent part of Karen's life as we send them to the farm and the day care centre on a regular basis purely for fun and exercise.I cannot recommend Karen and her service highly enough! If you love your pets and want the best care for them, then do not hesitate and contact Karen!!

What can we say about Richard and Gail? They have gone above and beyond what we expected of a first-time pet sitter. As most pet owners know, leaving your furbaby for an extended period of time can be stressful for both pet and owner. (In our case, probably more owner!) This was the first time we left Zoe in the care of a pet sitter instead of boarding or sending her to Grandma's over in Perth. And from the beginning it was such a delightful experience. The meet and greet set our minds at ease when I saw how quickly Richard took a liking to Zoe, treating her like his own. And while away, we were sent photos and updates of Zoe's excursions, thus calming the nerves even more. When her skin started to flare up (as staffies do), Richard contacted me first before administering any medication to make sure he had everything just right. The amount of love, spoiling and care Zoe was shown made us pretty sure she wouldn't want to come back home with us. I would without a doubt recommend Richard and Gail to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, loving pet sitter (although I kind of want to keep them to myself so that they don't book out!)

Exceptional and Experienced Pet Carer.This was my two dogs second stay with Kim and unfortunately, I was unable to leave feedback for the initial visit. Needless to say, after the first stay I have booked Kim again for two nights and intend to book only with Kim in the future for short term or longer term bookings. Both of my dogs were very happy to see Kim on the second drop off.Kims genuine love of animals and knowledge of dog care needs and treatment is obvious from the first time you will speak to her. I have two very large spoiled dogs and on my dogs initial meeting with Kim, she was immediately able to manage my big dogs behaviours (and my nervousness!). I genuinely felt very comfortable straight away, as did my dogs.Kims backyard is excellent for dog care – very grassy, large and enclosed and Kim has considered all aspects of the space for dog safety. Kim even allowed them to sleep and sit inside and walked them every day.I cannot recommend Kim enough. Her flexibility and excellent communication was outstanding. Kim went above and beyond for me and on top of the exceptional care, she is a really lovely and genuine person. A great experience all around!As an end note, I guess the proof is in the pudding and my older girl gave me the cold shoulder for a night when I returned. I am thinking I interrupted her very nice holiday!Highest recommendation!Thank you so much again Kim.Coco, Sumo and Shay.
