Going on Holiday? Where will your dog stay?

Going on Holiday? Where will your dog stay?

Are you excited about your upcoming holiday but worried about what to do with your furry friend? At Flinders Pet Services, we understand the concerns that come with leaving your beloved dog behind. Our boutique accommodation, nestled in the beautiful coastal region of Shellharbour, NSW, offers the perfect solution for your dog to have a mini holiday of their own. In this post, we'll explore the importance of finding the right place for your dog to stay, when to book, and how we ensure their comfort during their time with us.

1. Are You Going on Holiday? Where Will Your Dog Stay?
Leaving your dog in a new and unfamiliar environment can be a source of worry for many pet owners. You may be concerned about how your dog will cope or if leaving them with family or friends will be too much of a burden. Additionally, you might worry about what would happen if something goes wrong and your dog requires immediate care. These concerns can be alleviated by choosing professional boarding services like ours.

2. Deciding When to Book:
It's essential not to leave your dog's boarding arrangements to the last minute. At Flinders Pet Services, we recommend booking well in advance to secure your dog's spot. Our top-tier boarding services are highly sought after, and we are usually booked out 2-3 months ahead of time. By planning ahead and reserving your dog's accommodation, you can have peace of mind knowing they will be in safe hands while you're away.

3. The Right Fit for Your Dog:
We understand that being away from home can be stressful for your dog. That's why we offer several options to ensure their well-being and happiness during their stay.

a) Trial Stays: Consider booking your dog in for trial stays before your trip. This allows them to become familiar with our facilities, our family, and the routine of their stay. It's an opportunity for your dog to experience a shorter stay, gradually building their confidence and easing any separation anxiety they might have.

b) Doggy Daycare: Another fantastic option is to book your dog in for doggy daycare at our center. This gives them a chance to socialize with other dogs, get acquainted with our surroundings, and enjoy a day full of fun and play. It's an excellent way for them to become familiar with our environment before their boarding stay.

c) Bring Comforts of Home: We want your dog to feel right at home during their stay with us. You are more than welcome to bring their bedding, toys, and other care items. Having familiar objects from home will provide them with a sense of security and comfort, making their stay more enjoyable.

When it comes to finding the perfect place for your dog to stay while you're on holiday, Flinders Pet Services offers top-tier boarding services in the breathtaking coastal region of Shellharbour, NSW. By booking in advance, considering trial stays and doggy daycare, and bringing along their favorite items, you can ensure that your furry friend feels comfortable and happy during their stay with us. Rest assured, your dog will have their very own mini holiday, filled with love, care, and lots of tail-wagging fun. So, enjoy your vacation, knowing that your precious pup is in capable and caring hands at Flinders Pet Services.
