    Thank you Dean and Kelly for all the love and care when Lucy stayed at the kennels. We really appreciate it and can highly recommend Pawprints.

    Cannot rate these guys enough! Dean and Kelly are wonderful! They looked after our girl for 3 weeks over Christmas and were so accommodating to us and our needs. Awesome fast communication and so friendly and kind. The actual kennels are wicked too and our girl always has the best time playing there!

    I can't recommend Pawprints enough! My dog, Reggie, has never been in a kennel before, so it was safe to say both me and the dog were pretty nervous! He stayed with Dean and Kelly for 3 nights and I am so stoked with the level of care they had for him. I got an update after his first night to let me know Reg had settled in and made friends with a fox terrier and a sausage dog. When I picked Reggie up, Dean gave me a full run down of how much fun Reg had with the daycare dogs, how much he ate, that he took his medication, and generally had a great time! I told them how Reg is weary of new people and Dean knew exactly how to make Reggie feel more comfortable. As I was driving away I could see Dean holding Reggie though the window, waving at me haha! Your dog gets their own space for sleeping, and during the day they can hang out with other dogs of a similar size. I will certainly be using Pawprints again, thank you so much for taking such great care of Reggie :)

    Our dog loves it he comes home absolutely buggered from playing. The cat is a cat he's happy enough. Dean and the family are nice people to deal with I would recommend them.
