What Our Customers Say
"The Yarra Valley Pet Resort team were amazing in their care of our furbabies. We used both their boarding and wedding chaperone service and couldn’t recommend them more. The team were super communicative in the lead-up to the big day and took the time to ask for all the right details, which gave us so much confidence. They were also incredibly warm and friendly and handled our overactive, anxious pups with such care and kindness. Our pups arrived at the wedding beautifully groomed and dressed in their wedding outfits, which absolutely made our day. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands and are so grateful to the team for taking such wonderful care of them."

"We have a typical fussy greyhound who they have looked after on many occasions. No other place I would trust for looking after my furr baby. Staff are amazing with him and always keep us posted no matter where we are in the world."

"Took our new rescue border collie for a 2 night trial. He is skittish and a bit lost at times. But, picked up a very happy dog and the "nannies" were able to tell me about his stay which made it personal. Will use again and recommend as well."

"Our Milly doesn’t socialise with other dogs, so we were a little nervous about leaving her, but the team were so understanding, patient, and generous with their time. They made sure she was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She came home happy, relaxed, and smelling amazing! We couldn’t be happier with the care she received and would highly recommend this pet resort. Thank you for looking after our girl so well!"

"Our pups and cat are always happy at Pet Resort. We left them for 2 weeks and Tilly, our cat settled back at home straight away. Our pups are wonderful and always happy. Pet Resort has their best interest at heart and keep you informed. Highly recommended."
