When we brought our Labrador to see "Lady" Catherine for an initial consultation, we instantly knew…read moreshe had an inside connection to the world of dogs. Our lab loved her! Catherine has built a niche business walking busy pet owners dogs for them and providing a doggie daycare in Parnell. She runs her Auckland business from Monday to Thursday and can also take your dogs overnight during this time. If you are going away on holiday then you can take advantage of her pet hotel service. Catherine hosts dogs in town and then on her farm south of Auckland over the weekend, where they live on her home farmlet. What an ideal scenario for my Labrador and any other dog that she deems behaved enough to join her. You see it was labrador dog that had to pass the test of being good enough to join the Pampered Pooch club. Phew, luckily she made it!

Providing daycare services for either a half day (up to 5 hours) or a full day (opening hours 7am-7pm) at very reasonable rates. They also offer a grooming service on site, and a drop and shop option where you can pay by the hour if you just don't have the heart to leave your mate at home while you do the groceries. Plus they are right next to Pak N Save. Our two boys have such a great time. Our 15 week old puppy is learning so much from the other dogs, and absolutely loves jumping in the water for a quick dip in between his wrestling matches. Our nearly 17 year old dog also has a great time. It really brings out the puppy in him and leaves him full of life again. We also receive a discount for the second dog which is a big help. Before attending all dogs must go through a screening process, and have their vaccinations. This combined with the helpful, dog loving staff means it's a really safe environment to leave the furriest member of your family.

We couldn't be more happy with our experience with Brittany and her business! We recently "rescued"…read morea two year old German Shepherd named "Bo". He had been living in a chicken coop in Ojai and was neglected and abused...it was a very sad situation and Brittany went ABOVE AND BEYOND the call of duty to get this poor boy! She picked him up on a Thursday (around the 1st of December), she then immediately took him to a groomer that very same day as he was in terrible condition. She jumped through many hoops and the very next day she got him neutered and his shots. Over the next few days we were in constant contact via texting and phone calls. Bo had not had any previous training and just within THREE days in her care, he had learned to sit, lie down, high five, heal and even walking through a door with manners. She called me on Monday and asked if I could come get him as he was becoming extremely attached to her. She was concerned that he would "have his heart broken again if she kept him much longer". My fiancé and I went directly to the pet store to purchase Bo a collar, leash, bed etc. when we arrived, her, Bo and I went on a long walk while she helped me learn exactly what she had taught him. We then introduced each of our other three dogs to him, one at a time. She was so professional in every way possible! She loaned us an e-collar and took about four hours out of her busy day with us preparing Bo to come to his forever home! She even went as far as sending us home with special food due to him being on a terrible diet his entire life. We have stayed in total contact regarding how Bo is adapting to his new life...I've sent her tons of e-mails, text messages and videos of Bo showing her how well he's doing, without Brittany and her total love and amazing knowledge of dogs this poor dog would still be living a horrible life! I would refer ANYONE who needs minor to major training issues to her in a heartbeat! I've seen first hand of how she works with dogs and their owners...she is totally dedicated to all of the dogs and their owners that go to her, whether it's for training or day care! We've had Bo for 1 1/2 months and couldn't be more happy, a huge thank you to The Canine Councilor! If I have any questions or issues with ANY of my dogs (I have four), she's more then happy to give me the best advice possible! She took in Bo, did basic training and boarded him for free...he even got to cuddle on her bed. She introduced him to many other dogs, a cat and even kids. I highly recommend her to everyone, I know first hand how credible, responsible and dedicated she is. Thank you for all that you do Brittany, you truly are the best!!! Also, a huge thank you from Bo! He's become such a wonderful part of our family and we are even able to take him to dog friendly restaurants, beaches and dog parks! He's even gotten used to my rescue kitty (10 months old) and "Marley" is used to him...the process went as smooth as possible due to her tips and knowledge of animal behavior. Thank you again Brittany!
