So pleased to have this great service nearby, very kind and caring team who really adore dogs. Samantha DixonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I absolutely love this place! As does my pooch who has been attending daycare there since she was a pup. Cannot recommend it highly enough. My pooch is so excited every time she goes and clearly loves Christie and all the carers. I trust Christie and her wonderful team 100%. They are all caring and knowledgeable and it brings me great comfort to know my pooch is being so well looked after. I am very grateful to the many people at Newport Lakes dog park who raved about this place when I got my pooch. And the praise is well-deserved! Chloe TysonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mazie always loves coming to daycare. Great prices and friendly staff. I trust that mazie is in safe hands when she is goes to daycare. Nic KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love the everyday photos that get put up for doggy daycare. Wish we lived closer but its worth the early morning drive to take my 2 dogs for the day. They come back happy and exhausted after a good play day. Elizabeth BrunoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I met Christie and the team today and was taken for a tour by Jayden who really knows his stuff. I can say first-hand just how happy all the dogs (and chickens) at the Hairy Hounds Playground are. 😁 There is a real genuineness that comes across with the pets wellness in mind and the primary focus in bringing out the very best in each and every dog. Happy Birthday to Mirella! 🥳 All the staff are wonderful and joined in to make her day extra special today with a yummy morning tea spread which they kindly invited me to partake. To say I was super impressed is an understatement. Christie has the biggest of benevolent hearts with Hairy Hounds charity and fundraising efforts on a global level and all the team doing an amazing job. 🐶 Heidi PetraniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
