If you’re going away and are looking for a safe place for your dog to stay, we’ve rounded up everything you need to know about the dog boarding experience at K9 Heaven.
Our Approach to Your Dog’s Individual Needs
At K9 Heaven’s boarding house every dog is a ‘VIP’ – a Very Important Pup. Recognising that each dog is unique, with its own set of needs and preferences, is at the core of our philosophy. From the Great Dane’s requirement for larger spaces to the Pug’s need for air-conditioned comfort, we’ve got it all covered.
Different spaces cater to different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. But what truly sets us apart is our individualised approach. Upon entry, every dog undergoes a comprehensive assessment, also know as a Trial Day. We take note of their likes, dislikes, specific dietary needs, and even their favourite toys & friends. This forms the basis of their stay with us. Tailored play sessions, custom diet plans if needed, and specialised care routines are all a part of the K9 Heaven experience.
The Balanced Diet: How We Make Sure Our Dogs Stay Nourished
If there’s one thing that’s universally true for all dog owners, it’s the sheer joy of seeing their pet dive into a bowl of food, tail wagging, eyes sparkling with excitement. That’s easier said than done sometimes, with many dogs being picky eaters either through preference or dietary needs.
While some thrive on a meat-centric diet, others might require more grains and veggies. Some might have allergies, while others might have specific health concerns that need addressing. At K9 Heaven, we take all this into account. We understand the importance of a balanced diet. It’s not just about filling a bowl with food; it’s about ensuring that each bite your dog takes is packed with the nutrients they need.
Some of our canine guests simply need regular meals of their usual food. Whereas some of our VIPs require a little more time and attention at feeding time. Raw and meat-based diets are just some of the nutritionally packed options we can help cater to. Given we spend so much time around dogs, we monitor and report back if we think your dog’s diet might need switching up.
We work hard to ensure that every dog under our care thrives, both in health and in spirit. For the dog’s it’s the reassurance of being in a safe, fun, and loving environment. For our owners, we know you can rest a little easier every night knowing that your pup is well-fed and looked after.
Preparing your pup for dog boarding at K9 Heaven
Our goal is to make your dog’s time with us feel like an extension of home. When it comes to preparing your furry companion for their stay at K9 Heaven, we like to ease each dog in, in their own time. That way we can get to know your dog, and their needs before you head away.
K9 Heaven owner Ollie, said to consider bringing your dog in for a few days or up to 14 days leading up to a longer stay. This practice gives your dog time to acclimatise to the doggy daycare and gives our staff time to know which area will be most supportive of your dog’s needs (whether they are high energy or more relaxed). We recognize that each owner-dog relationship is distinct, which is why we offer this preparation period at a reduced rate. It’s about ensuring your dog’s comfort and well-being.
At K9 Heaven, we treat your dog like a cherished family member. We pay attention to even the smallest details, whether it’s potential dietary preferences or their favourite type of play. Rest assured, these play a significant role in ensuring your doggo feels right at home during their stay with us. Our priority is to make sure that every facet of your dog’s experience at K9 Heaven is nothing short of seamless and enjoyable.
