Hi there.
My name is Tracey and our family loves to provide a home-away-from-home to any large to giant breed DE-SEXED MALE dogs (our female Mastiff X Great Dane is a bossy britches and is fussy).
We lost our boy to Lymphoma in December 2021 and our girl really misses the company, so we decided to welcome other dogs into our home by offering boarding (and, hubby says NO to adopting a 2nd dog). LOL!
I have an Animal Science degree, where I studied animal behaviour (including a unit on dog training), nutrition and healthcare. So if you need a bit of advice on diet, behaviour or supplements to keep them happy - let me know.
I have had a life-time experience with dogs, and spent the last 20 years with giant breeds. My hubby is like a dog whisperer, and I haven't met a dog who doesn't love him!
Our yard is secure and we have 2 eager teenagers to assist with daily walks, plays & cuddles. They are very comfortable with big dogs having grown up with them.
We are located in the leafy Avenues of Kedron, and only 20 minutes from the airport, which is extremely handy for people who are FIFO workers or traveling by air.
Your pup will get -
* large house block to roam around (and race around like a lunatic when playing)
* large under house concreted area for shade during the day, with industrial fan to keep cool & sling beds
* excellent fencing
* potential playmate (female - neutered)
* daily walks in park lands close by - we are walking distance to Kedron Brook (at least 30-45 minutes)
* inside at night on comfy pet pillows where they can be part of the family
* stay at home company
* lots of cuddles and play with humans and dog alike
* fortnightly warm bath (if staying for extended periods)
* potential beach excursion(s)
* daily photos of themselves having a great time, and sent to their parent to assure them they are having a great holiday too
You will need to provide -
* any medications including special shampoo's
* leads/collars etc
* pup to be flea/tick -free before visiting us
* food (we can supply food at an extra cost)
* drop off and pickup your pup
Please note - we will not board the following dogs:
* very submissive dogs (they need to be pretty happy-go-lucky and ignore miss Bossy Britches)
* un-neutered dogs (tried that and they just don't get the message that Minnie is not interested!)
* very aggressive dogs, or dogs agressive on a lead when being walked
* female dogs
* Labradors, Golden Retrievers or Staffy's (for some reason they have never liked our dog)
Our family looks forward to meeting you and your pup for a meet and greet, so we can see if both dogs will get along, before taking on the task.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. 7 days before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Tracey and her family were wonderful - again! And Wilson would love to sleep over again in the future. Thank you!
Excellent sitter - communication was great.
