Is it too late to be making 2024 wrap-up posts? 🙈

We had our biggest holiday period ever in December, with a record amount of animals looked after. We boarded two birds and eleven guinea pigs, and did home visits for three dogs, ten cats, seven guinea pigs and eighteen chickens! Thank you to everyone who trusted their pets' care with us in 2024, we appreciate your support!

Just a reminder, our home visits include:
🐾 feeding your pet/s
🐾 playtime and/or pats, depending on your pet/s preference
🐾cleaning up - washing food bowls, scooping litter, poo patrol etc
🐾 medicating, as required - can even give insulin injections!
🐾 watering plants, collecting mail and taking bins in/out

We also offer boarding in our air-conditioned boarding room for small pets, and we can even cater for pets with additional needs (e.g. medications or assist feeds) as Lana is a Registered Veterinary Nurse.

We hope 2025 is filled with lots of holidays, puppy cuddles, and kitty purrs.

Dino and Lana 💛💜

Happy Holidays from Void, Mario and Luigi 🖤💜🧡

Happy Holidays from Mati, Vito and Buzz! 💜🧡

🧼 Mati and Vito are brothers with A LOT of hair, so to help them beat the summer heat, they had a full haircut (a BUZZ cut, if you will 😅), nail trim and bath. Their style is giving King of the Jungle 👑 🦁

🏝 Buzz is a handsome young lad who boarded with us for a few days while his family was on a short getaway. He was a quiet boy, but started to come out his shell a little bit towards the end if the stay - I think he finally realised I was the Giver of Yummy Snacks! 🍫

Boarding and grooming for guinea pigs is available year-round by appointment, starting from $5. Send a DM or email enquiries and bookings 📧 🗓

Stay safe this holiday season, and give your pets a cuddle from Dino and I 🧡💜

Did you know...?

A group of rats is called a "mischief"! 🐀🐀🐀

Rodney, Oliver and Louis only got up to a little bit of mischief when they boarded with us recently, but it was very easy to forgive them because look how cute they are!! 😍

These three cuties stayed with us over the long weekend, so their human could have a long-awaited getaway for some birthday celebrations 🎉🎉

Chocolate and Allan have both been in and out of the vet recently, so are on heaps of different medications. Fortunately, Lana's experience as an exotics veterinary nurse meant they boys were in the best hands to receive their treatments while in our care.

Guinea pig boarding starts from as little as $5 a night (that's more money for holiday cocktails! 🍹), and a small surcharge if your piggie requires medications. And yes, we can medicate all types of pets, from mice to budgies, to cats, chickens and dogs.

To book your pets in for a stay with us, or home visits for the larger friends, send us a message on either of our social platforms, or via email.
