You are welcome to visit our website or send us a message for additional details on how we can assist you.
We recently went away for 4 day break and our usual cat sitter could not care for our cats. I contacted Happy Hounds and was instantly impressed by their quick communication and professionalism. We met our cat carer before we went away and had twice daily visits - we received extensive reports and photos after each visit and reassured both cats were patted and the small jobs around the home were done. We came home to happy cats and we could not be happier. Thank you so much Happy Hounds, your service is amazing.
Very happy to have Happy Hounds watch our two dogs for the weekend. Excellent communication from the owner and very punctual/reliable sitter (Lilli). Their services are accommodating to suit our needs and the prices match the quality that they deliver.Would absolutely use Happy Hounds again and would recommend to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

She also went above and beyond, keeping me calm about the weather and ironing the boys shirts. If you want a pet wedding chaperone - seriously look no further than Whaggy Whiskers!!

abbeyards is the most beautiful dog boarding kennel on the Gold Coast m. We have left our dog Rex there several times and he had the best time and loved it. We were sent updates and photos while away and our dog looked so happy and taken care of when we returned. We recently went on an another holiday and had to book him into another kennel as Abbeyards was full it was a very different and stressful experience. The staff at Abbeys really love and care for your animals as if they are their own. Can’t recommend these guys enough
We have been taking our family dog to Abbeyards for many years. Recently our dog fell ill while boarding with them and they handled the situation superbly.Gave us a call and quickly took our dog to the emergency vet with our consent. Our pup has since recovered and Abbeyards has been in contact to check on his health. Emily and all the staff, thank you so much.
First time we have ever used a boarding kennel for our 5 month old pug puppy, the staff were really friendly and helpful they even sent us a couple of pics to show us he had made some friends and having a good time. I was really impressed when we picked him up they even washed his bed and blanket. I would recommend Abby yards and our nugget will be visiting again real soon ☺️. Thanks to all the staff at Abby yards great job.

Last year Cheryl helped us find our Maltipoo girl, Gypsy. We were so happy with the whole experience we returned to Cheryl & Paul for our next pup. We now have an adorable toy poodle, Rosie. Animal Kingdom is a wonderful family business, they take great care to ensure their animals are happy & healthy.
A big thank you to Paul and Cheryl for looking after our little Jack Russell Ossy while we went away for a few days. It was so good to get daily updates and judging by the photos Ossy had a wonderful time with you. He settled back into his normal routine without any problems. Thank you again from Sue, Allan and Ossy. We would highly recommend Animal Kingdom.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the wonderful family and staff at Animal Kingdom! Paul & Cheryl are so invested in making sure your pup is the perfect fit for your family.

Where people are viewed as chauffeurs and chefs and pets are pampered like celebrities, we offer holiday care, grooming and enrichment programmes for dog daycare! Thus, inquire about our doggy daycare if you want to socialise your pet or just think they need a day out. If you’re organising a trip, we can also help.
Blown away by the service of Martin & Melita, after a last minute unexpected work trip I was really stuck with what to do with my 6 month old Huskey. These guys came highly recommended and did not disappoint. I received daily updates by txt and videos every day making me feel at ease.110% recommend these guys.Thank you from myself and Dakota we will be using you in future for sure 🙂
We have 3 quite small dogs, one of which is very easy going and gets along with most other dogs almost immediately, the other is very slow to warm to both people and other dogs, to the point where she gets quite anxious. We dropped our 2 off for a day of care while we were in the area on holidays so that we could spend some time out with family. The owners of this establishment absolutely love animals and this is very obvious. They took the time with our nervous little girl to introduce her to the other dogs slowly so that she wasn't overwhelmed or over stimulated which I could not thank them enough for. When we got back our outgoing boy was exhausted from all the play and our little girl was still very calm and relaxed. Thank you again and I highly recommend doggy daycare at this facility!!

We are the only boarding facility in Australia designed exclusively to meet the needs of your family’s unconventional pets.

The staff at Noah’s Ark feels that your special loved ones should receive five star care while you’re gone, just like dogs and cats do. Our top priority is making sure your pet is happy.
The whole team are so lovely and caring. We have been taking our birds there for the past 4 years. We have had horrible past experiences with other places. I would never trust anybody else with our little babies. Noah's Ark team are both professionally and experienced and Alana is a veterinary nurse who has very good knowledge of birds as well. This is difficult to find especially in the Gold Coast. I love how they give you up dates and photos of your babies and how they interact with them.
An awesome place to take your precious wierd and wonderful pets to board while you go on hols. Super experienced owners and staff will thoroughly spoil your pet, leaving you to enjoy your holiday without worry. Very clean area for different pets, even outside area for ducks geese etc. Set in a lovely bushland area, with shady trees and interesting gardens. Plenty of parking. Would highly recommend.
We've used Noah's Ark for years now, to watch our Budgies and Guinea Pigs every time we go away. I'm incredibly protective of them, but I've never had an issue leaving them here. The staff spend more than half their day playing with and entertaining your pets, and making sure they're happy. It's a great social event for our furry and feathered family, and as much a holiday for them as for us. The owner, Alana, is really wonderful, and it's obvious she cares deeply about all the animals in her care. Your family couldn't be in better hands than here. 10/10 Would (and do) recommend!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! From Riley's for 'test' day to today she has loved every minute of being at FnF. She has become such a happy and socialised wee girl and I know that the FnF team has contributed to that immensely. All the staff are so friendly and kind that I feel more than happy leaving my girl with them. Thank you team I'm so pleased that Riley gets to grow up in such a fun filled and enriching environment for her.
etch n Fun has been a godsend to us in this year of Covid. We got our little whippet pup just before lockdown and so for some months he was not able to socialise with other pups or people. He quickly assimilated at Fetch n Fun and now loves the company of other pups. All the crew at Fetch n Fun are quite devoted to all in their care. They love our boy to bits - as I am sure they do all the dogs. I have recommended them to friends who are now having the same great experience.
Our little Beagle “Alfie” totally loves this place, and so do we. Cherie and her team do the most amazing job and we cannot thank them enough for occupying Alfie while we work. The FB posts we see throughout the day always entertain & reassure us that he is doing fine. Alfie loves his weekly walk and the team always take incredible photos that we treasure. We can totally recommend this service with complete confidence.

Marshmallow had her first sleepover at AAA pet resort and she had the best time ever! The girls were so friendly, and made us feel very welcome. It was a great feeling knowing she was in good hands and we could enjoy our night away in Brisbane without any worries. We picked her up and she was smelling so beautiful from her bath! And we were told she was having lots of fun in the play yard with other dogs. Definitely a 10/10 experience and we can't wait to continue to use your services when we need them next
Leaving your pet with anyone can be very nerve racking, but for our first experience of doing so AAA Pet Resort were very professional and made it easy to do. They were contactable while we were away and took photo's of our gorgeous girl for us to see, which when we saw her face we were confident she was being cared for in the right hands. They even nicknamed her Roxie Bear, which I loved! We would definitely recommend and use again. Thank you AAA pet resort.

Happily book him in again. Staff were friendly, communicated well.
Have housed my large dog here a few times now, and there's no where else I would trust. Evie always comes hope happy and well cared for. It's hard to find a place to take care of your pets that you fully trust but this is definitely the place for me. The staff are kind and caring and will always go out of their way for your pet.
