Story

Qualified Veterinary Nurse providing "Special Needs Care" for Dogs on 24/7 basis

A small care facility at my home providing all the comforts of home - heat pumps,air conditioning/ underfloor heating to provide comfort in summer & winter especially for geriatric dogs. Non-slip flooring (commercial grade textured vinyl and tiles (non-slip). Indoor kennel room and outdoor activities to suit each dogs level of mobility. Daily walks and people & dog companionship.

Caring for dogs requiring an extra level of care due to their life stage - geriatric whom do not cope with normal boarding facility and experience mobility issues.

I am able to care for dogs with medical conditions where dog is on medications for epilepsy and diabetes etc and require close monitoring.

Post surgical recovery can also prove to be difficult for owners with work and lifestyle balance and dogs require cage rest and supervised care for weeks. For instance fractured limb or TTA/TPLO and spinal surgery requiring cage rest and monitoring and additional nursing care to enable speedy recovery..

Dogs often experience separation anxiety and The Doggery provides constant companionship and interaction with both people and other dogs whilst relaxing in a "dream home away from home" - boredom is not a problem as long active walks on lifestyle block to reduce stress and anxiety.
