Common FAQ's
You can pick up and drop off your pet between hours 9.00am – 12.00pm & 1.00pm – 5.00pm, 7 days a week. We are closed on Public Holidays.
We strongly recommend you drop off your pets before 3.00 pm, which allows them to settle in for the night.
We supply soft comfy bedding and plenty of stimulation and attention to your pets whilst in our care. Often just a small item of clothing that belongs to their human parents will help them settle, unwashed so it has your scent, or even a pillowcase off your bed! How many times have you caught your dog sleeping on your cloths when you are in the shower? It soothes them. A favourite toy is also a great idea or a small blanket off their bed at home. Please don’t send anything that you may not want destroyed, as dogs will be dogs!
We also recommend a day care visit and an overnight stay prior to any long stays to help new comers with settling in.
