Quality Care and Accommodation in Kuranda servicing Cairns and Surrounding Area

Pet Resort

Our kennels (“rooms”) are huge, cool, clean, fully-roofed, fully heat and noise-insulated and have an overhead fan in each;


Our beds are chew-proof “Kuranda” beds, manufactured in the USA. In winter we add cosy blankets for bedding and jackets as needed. In summer our guests enjoy clean cotton towels on their beds


The back gate of each kennel opens directly onto one of eight play yards. The front gate of each kennel opens to the walkway and has a view of the central garden.


Dogs feel happy and secure in their own room as they can see and hear what’s happening in other parts of the kennel yet still have their privacy for rest.

Exercise

Plenty of exercise helps to make happy, healthy and stimulated dogs. We have a regular routine of active times and quiet times so your dog can run and play and then have a good rest. After breakfast dogs have time in the play yards in their playgroups. In the hottest part of the day our guests rest in their cool kennels. Then around 2.30pm it’s playtime again until 5pm when they come in to cool down before dinner time.


Playgroups are formed by a careful process of socializing dogs of similar size, breed, temperament, age and energy level. After many years of experience socializing dogs, our trained carers can easily test if a dog is ready to socialize. No dog is rushed or pressured into making new friends if they are showing timidity or stress – we take it at your dog’s own pace. Our team is always on hand to supervise and play with dogs. Pets that choose to have no doggy friends play in our yards with our carers.


We have play equipment, balls, ropes, chew toys and humans to help make playtime lots of fun. Playtime, cuddles and all entertainment is provided with great pleasure and free of charge.


In winter we can offer property walks in the middle of the day if requested. In summer (wet season) it is usually far too hot for extra walks.

Premium Quality Diet

We know dogs love their tucker, and we feed the best twice daily. All meals are prepared in our commercial-grade kitchen. We feed super premium Royal Canin dry food mixed with a small amount of rice and roast chicken served in a hygienic stainless steel bowl. We also have baked chicken and human-grade fresh minced beef and fish on hand for fussy eaters.


If your dog requires a prescription diet or has special food needs due to allergies, please bring along your own food packaged into meal size portions. If the food requires freezing, refrigeration and/or multiple step preparation this may incur an additional charge.


Medications are administered as per owners’ instructions.

Hygiene

Our kennels and beds are cleaned daily (or more often if required). We use F10 disinfectant which is safe for dogs and humans. There are two large concrete water bowls in each kennel which are emptied, cleaned and refilled regularly throughout the day.

Grooming

If your dog is staying 7 days or more, we offer a discounted hydrobath, blowdry and fabulous doggy cologne before departure for $10. The same service for dogs with shorter stays is priced at $20. If your pooch is staying two weeks or longer we provide all baths free of charge.


We can provide limit clipping or grooming services, by negotiation.
