"Staff here are amazing. Piper our 19 week old German Shepherd pup just had her first 3 night stay and absolutely loved it. Our rescue cats Mabel and Bluey also had a stay here early in the year and staff were amazing with them especially as they don't like strangers. We travel from Newcastle to board our pets here and won't trust anyone else with them. Highly recommend Pet Resorts Terrigal."

"My two doggies had their first boarding experience at Pet Resorts Terrigal and stayed 3 days/2 nights. Their accommodation was private for the two of them, as one is reactive to other dogs. From enquiry, to tour of the facilities, to booking, to drop off, and pick up, the experience was easy, with friendly helpful staff. My two doggies went happily with a team member, and enjoyed their stay, returning home calm and happy. I'm sure I missed them more than they missed me! I enjoyed reading their holiday report card. Will definitely be using this service again and looking into day care and training."

"Once again Terrigal Pet Resort has exceeded my expectations in their care of Marshall. He was there for 8 days this time and while my anxiety remained it was not as bad 😊. Marshall loved his stay and enjoyed playing with his friends. I paid extra for him to have an extra play each day. I highly recommend this as it certainly enriched his stay. The pet Nannies are exceptional and he does love them. He had the best time."

"I honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience at Pet Resorts Australia Terrigal! I wasn’t sure how my dog would go with staying somewhere new, but she seems to have had an absolute ball and came home happy and settled. I love how much thought they put into all the little details to make the dogs’ stay enjoyable. The facilities are fantastic, and the fact they even have a pool for the dogs is such a great touch! It is a little more expensive than some other boarding options, but I genuinely feel like you get what you pay for here. The care, facilities and attention to detail make it well worth it. I’ve already booked another two stays for my dog, which probably says it all. I wouldn’t have done that if I wasn’t really happy with them. Highly recommend!"

"I left my beautiful little toy poodle peanut at Terrigal pet resort for 6 nights, she had never been left before so I was very nervous and apprehensive about it, but I needn’t have been as she had the best time and was cared for so well by the pet Nannie’s, especially Courtney who was apparently her favourite, I was sent an update on how she was going with photos which was the cutest thing ever 😍 and made me relax and enjoy my break knowing that she was so happy and getting lots of cuddles, I would not leave her anywhere else now, thank you so much for taking such good care of my fur baby 💕"
