Hi, Hello, Woof Woof!

My dog Tilly and I are opening our home to your dogs for boarding services throughout the holiday period, come and spend Christmas and/or New years with us in our home away from home! I am offering overnight dog boarding in my home only, so that I can spent my time fully dedicated to the pets in my care.

Hi, I'm Ellie, I am 28 years old, I am fun, bubbly, empathetic and caring. I am a qualified ECE teacher, but am currently self employed setting up a super cool business selling dog products!

We are home for the summer, and would love to open our lovely home in Torbay, Auckland to your fur babies. It's just me and Tilly in our spacious home, so we are hoping to spread some Christmas cheer with a small pack of Furiends (absolute maximum of 5 dogs + Tilly). If youre heading away for the holidays and are looking for a safe, and fun holiday escape for your dog, we are perfect for you.

We have a HUGE fully fenced garden with decks, lawn, and a mini jungle! We will have paddling pools, hose play, enrichment activities, sunbathing, treats, toys, cuddles, zoomies, learning new tricks, and the best summer ever!

In my house, dogs are allowed everywhere except the tables and countertops. Couch cuddles are the best!

To establish a settled routine, dogs will all sleep in their own bed. If your dog is under 6 months old, or unsettled through the night they will be crated in my bedroom with the company of Tilly and I for comfort. If we all get a good nights sleep we all have energy to play the next day (especially me 😂)

I am confident in administering medicine, teaching basic & fun training commands, and monitoring the packs' behaviours to ensure all dogs feel comfortable and safe at all times.

Dog walks are entirely dependent on the pack. The beaches are super busy at this time of year, and for some dogs this is too much. Our group walks to long bay beach and paremoremo dog park will be planned around the packs personalities. If your dog prefers to stay in their safe space at home, no worries! There will be plenty of fun to be had at the house, and they may even benefit from an hour or two of calm time alone.

Your dog absolutely must come for a visit beforehand so that I can get to know your dogs personality, and our dogs get a chance to learn each others play styles.

Things to pack:

- bed & blanky

- meals for the duration of your stay

- collar & leash (harness optional)

We can't wait to welcome you into our home!
