"Where your pet becomes our pet"

Luxury Accommodation for Your Pet Run by People Who Care

Only 5 minutes from Auckland International Airport

"Dog Paradise at new style pet hotel"

 

Auckland's cats and dogs will give a resounding 'paws-together' approval rating for a new concept in pet holiday accommodation - The Airport Pet Hotel.  Said Mr Philip Warren, the SPCA President and Auckland Regional Council Chairman, who officially opened the Airport Pet Hotel in November 1998, 

Bomb & Harley

"This is a unique concept in boarding kennels for dogs and cats which shows the way of the future.  The Airport Pet Hotel will set new standards for the industry.  They are to be commended for this exciting concept for companion animals in the Auckland area and I am sure it will be very popular." 
(Mr Warren, President SPCA)

And so it has been!  Bookings do need to be made in advance for a stay at the Airport Pet Hotel.   Christine Clark has over 20 years experience in the dog training and grooming world, has been known to thousands of Aucklanders as  "Puppy Love " . 

 
Just five minutes from Auckland's International Airport, the Airport Pet Hotel is set in the heart of tranquil countryside.  The whole concept was designed and planned from scratch.   

The huge 10,000 sq ft building is totally under cover and enclosed.  There are a number of large open areas in which selected groups of dogs play together all day, with secure outdoor garden runs also for their use during the day.    For feeding and at night they each have their own private, spacious sleeping quarters with either their own bed or one provided by the Hotel.

All the dogs can be supervised from any part of the building.

And there's no concrete underfoot here - instead a special soft cushioned flooring.

Your feline friends have not been forgotten.  They have their own special accommodation where your cats can relax, have heaps of cuddles and generally lounge about all day as only cats can do.   Warm in winter and cool in summer.

Tariffs are very reasonable and there are no hidden extrasIncluded is all food, GST and full grooming.  It does not matter whether you have a Jack Russell, a Standard Poodle, a Labrador or a Schnauzer; providing they have stayed for three nights or longer they go home looking as if they have just left the beauty parlour. 

All guests automatically receive "Frequent Stayer Points" which culminate in a discount when enough are accumulated.  This is a nice surprise when it comes to paying the bill.

 


So, at last there is a place for your pet to stay where their holiday is as good as yours.  We aim to make your pets our pets while they stay with us.  All shapes and sizes of pets are welcome and we specialise in small to medium sized dogs.  Especially if your pet has grooming needs, you know where they should stay, where the hairdressing is all included in the stay - the Airport Pet Hotel.
