"Just want to tell you Sam that the resort did a lovely spa job with my two girls – the cross Irish wolfhound’s coat is difficult to make look good, but she looked like a queen and my cross Lab has never looked sassier. And they both look in top healthy condition after their three week resort stay with you. I want to thank you and your team for the loving and careful way you attended to medications on my behalf - and overseeing their recuperation. I recommend your place often to people and know I can continue to do that confidently." 
Wendy – the girls, Bonnie and Roxy – and our joint lord and master, Errol

"Our puppy is a small dog that is very timid and not very sociable around other dogs ... Portia goes everywhere with my wife, even to work where she sits at her feet... so parting with her for two weeks while we were on holidays was going to be a big challenge for both Portia and my wife. Portia is on a very rigid diet also, given that she had major surgery at a young age that was life threatening, so what she eats could be fatal.

The staff at Sunshine Coast Pet Resort were fantastic and very patient with my wife's 'how is she' phone calls... and looked after Portia so well.

On collecting Portia, we were delighted to find that her social skills with other dogs had developed and she was a very happy healthy little soul.

Thanks to all the team at Sunshine Coast Pet Resort ... well done!"

"I have two pampered pooches who until now have had house/dog sitters move in whenever I go away.

Not any more. Sunshine Coast Pet Resort really listened when I outlined my dogs' habits and made sure "the girls" were contented, had lots of attention and play time.

I love the "report cards" summarising each day's activities and am over the moon that the girls wag their tails and pull at the leash to see Sam and the team at Sunshine Coast Pet Resort. Always a good sign.

Travelling regularly for work, and working long hours - the pick up and delivery service is an absolute gift for me. The dogs are secure and come home relaxed after their visit to the "pet resort" giving me peace of mind while I am away."

"Sam, when Semi "holidays" at your Pet Resort she comes home looking healthy -  but complains about being away from home by way of *loud meows* for at least an hour after arriving home (all the neighbours know that Semi has arrived home). On the report from her last visit I noted the comment.

'Semi is not eating - watch her.' How right you were. I waited a few days before I took her to the vet - thinking she may have been sulking. When I took her to the vet I commented that I did not think she was actually sick but she was only picking at her food and not eating properly - he took blood/urine tests - no problems there - checked her mouth out and she had inflamed gums. Her mouth must have been so sore that she could not eat. He gave her a cortisone and antibiotic injection and sent me home with antibiotic pills for 5 days. Within 12 hours she was making up for lost time and is eating normally again now.

Thank you and your team for caring for Semi!"

"Home away from home. That is how I would describe The Sunshine Coast Pet Resort! When their van arrives to pick my 3 dogs and Cat up to go, they all race to see who can get in first and that's a great sign!

I think it's the roast chicken they are given if they are well behaved!

The accomodation is clean and the dogs are always groomed before they return home. Regarding value for money the resort is right up there, we moved from Sydney and it is a breath of fresh air in that respect so congratulations, 10 out of 10 from our family."

"I have been sending my 14 year old blue cattle dog to Sunshine Coast Pet Resort for many years, in fact since they first took over control of these kennels. Binty is usually in the kennels for two weeks ever two or three months.

Binty is picked up at our home and returned there. She has displayed no traits of not wishing to go to the kennels, in fact she appears to look forward to it when she is picked up.When she is returned, she is not hungry and she has been shampooed. I have no hesitation in recommending the Resort to owners."

"We have been using the sunshine coast petresort for a number of years and in that time have found Sam and her friendly staff, to be reliable and professional. Our animals are part of our family , so it is important to us that they are cared for and loved when they are away from home.

Sam and her staff always achieve these results with our animals."

"I'm a 4 year old stumpy tailed cattle dog, although I hear my Mum and Dad say I'm the most peculiar looking cattle dog they have ever seen! I live at home with my mum and dad but dad often goes away on business and mum sometimes goes with him so, I never know if I am going to be on holiday for 4 days or 2 weeks.

When Frans comes with the truck to pick me up I rush to him to say hello because I know that I am going to be well looked after, given lots of walks, playtime and cuddles, sometimes have my photograph taken or a swim and brush up on my computer skills when I am in the office with Sam who by the way has extremely lickable legs!! In fact, I am looked after so well - one day I even went fishing with Frans - that I have heard my Mum and Dad say that when I get back home I've been so spoilt they have to 'get tough' with me.

When I'm on my walks I tell my friends about the Pet Resort and now a red cattle dog friend of mine, Raf Miller also goes to the Pet Resort. When I was at the vet having my annual check up, I even heard Dad tell my Vet what a good time I have. If you want anymore information probably best to talk to my Mum and Dad because in spite of Sam showing me my computer skills are not very good and trying to answer a mobile phone with 4 paws is pretty much impossible!"
