BIG DOGS - Daycare & Overnight homestay

Where dogs can be dogs

ABOUT BIG DOGS

BIG DOGS is not a boarding kennels with cages. As an avid dog-lover, it upsets me to see large dogs especially, fenced in with little or no stimulation, exercise or company.

At BIG DOGS, our  ‘guests’ are free to run and play in a purpose-built, deer-fenced property. You will have peace of mind knowing that your best buddy is enjoying the fun, attention and social activity they deserve in a secure country environment. Walks, sticks/balls, rabbit chasing, cuddles, play and even swims, are all part of our daily schedule.

Our Vizsla (Mango) LOVES going to Nancy’s, she squeaks with excitement when we reach the BIG DOGS driveway. It’s such a treat for her to play with her friends all day, and we feel so relaxed leaving her with Nancy.

Stories from our "Guests"

BIG DOGS has a number of regulars, from Labs and Border Collies to Vizslas and Retrievers. Read about their dog sitting experiences, and overnight stays at BIG DOGS.

“Driving from Wanaka, once we turn off to the Red Bridge, Luna knows exactly where we’re going and enthusiastically whimpers the whole way.

Once we’re through the gate of the property, we let Luna out of the car and she straight away runs to catch up with the other BIG DOGS.

She loves the freedom there to run around with her mates. We think it’s the best set up possible for a kennel and Luna definitely agrees”.

Our dog Frankie loves BIG DOGS and being with his mate Ned. Although he comes back quite exhausted after all the exercise he is a very happy dog. We have no hesitation in recommending BIG DOGS.
