What we do best

  • we provide Hobart and surrounding suburbs with exceptional quality dog minding services.
  • we place dogs with appropriate minders for the duration their owners are away.
  • your dog will stay in a family home with dog lovers.
  • they will have their routines set just like home - they can sleep inside, live inside, take daily walks (on lead), whatever the owner requests.
  • we are exclusive! We only place your dog(s) in the family environment.
  • we do not mass board dogs in family homes.
Please be aware that whilst our minders are an experienced and dedicated team of dog lovers they DO NOT have veterinary qualifications and as such may be unable to care for dogs recovering from surgery or infirm dogs suffering from disease or age related conditions.

How we match dogs with minders

  • our minders are hand-picked by us to provide personalised service.
  • we visit and interview all our minders, meet their dog (if they have one) and ensure their home is suitable and their property is secure.
  • our minders are dog owners or former dog owners who quite simply JUST LOVE DOGS. They are mostly at home during the day and love having dogs around.
  • we get to know our minders and what dogs suit them.
  • we do our utmost to provide any service your dog requires!
  • you are welcome to contact your minder whilst you are away should you wish to know how your dog is. We can also email or text if requested.
  • we are passionate about making your dog feel loved and safe while they are holidaying with Dogs Holiday Havens.

  • do you want your dog in a kennel?
  • do you want someone living in your home?
  • do you want your dog in a secure and comfortable family environment?
  • do you want your dog to greet you on return as though life has not changed?
