Ridgeview Retreat:

Their Home away from Home

DOGGY DAYCARE - HOME BASED CARE ON SECURED ACREAGE, FULLY FENCED.

WE ARE THE ORIGINAL HOME BASED DOGGY DAYCARE ON THE GOLD COAST, AND WE ARE PROUD OF THAT FACT.   

 

In operation since 2012.  Fully licensed and insured and run by Qualified and Established Dog Minding Professionals.  

Give Your Dog an Adventure at Ridgeview Retreat with the knowledge that your dog will be kept safe and occupied throughout their day.

We offer Doggy Daycare Monday to Fridays with limited spaces available.  Supervised Structured Socialisation.  We are Dog Minding Professionals, and have been able to mix the small, medium and big dogs all together within the same environment.  No separation required, so all the dogs gain the necessary Social Skills to accept how to play with other dogs, regardless of breed or size.  Supervised under our professional care at all times, and after a period of gaining the necessary social skills to do so too.

 

We're very proud of our ability to achieve this and that's what makes us Stand Out From the Crowd! 

There's truly something special between the bond of a 'Dog and its Owner'.  Or should I say .. a Balanced Dog and its Owner.   With Love and Respect this can ..... and will be  .... achieved.

We absolutely are very blessed to be able to do what we do with our own dogs, as well as our furry guests.  We truly love Dogs, but also Respect Dogs and give them what they actually Need .. beyond love, cuddles and affection.  We give them that PLUS ....... we actually allow the Dog to actually just be a Dog!  We give the dogs STRUCTURED Supervised Socialisation to allow this to occur.

We're very proud of our ability to achieve this and that's what makes us Stand Out From the Crowd! 

As we live in a Security Gated Acreage Private Estate your pooch will be safe and secure throughout the day.
