SPECIAL NOTES FOR THE DOGGERY CLIENTS2022

The minimum stay over these peak periods will be 7 nights’ accommodation. In addition, the months of June, July, August & September have proven to be busy with long-term staying guests – it is necessary to book well in advance for these long-planned vacations.

A PEAK PERIOD ADDITIONAL CHARGE has been introduced to cover for staffing and overhead costs - $25.00 inc GST per day

OUR COMMITMENT TO OUR DOGGY GUESTS & OWNERS

The Doggery has a commitment to ensuring there is always one kennel space daily available for high needs referrals from the Veterinary Surgical Aoteoroa (VSA). We also have cases referred from Animal Referral Centre (Albany). At times, due to the high level of care required and our commitment to their recovery process, stays can be extended beyond booking dates. As a result, our numbers will fluctuate to accommodate for these situations and other genuine family emergency situations for existing clients of The Doggery. Health & Safety are of priority and we do not wish to be compromised under any circumstances.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT

*In the event your pet requires Veterinary Treatment when in our care The Doggery will pay up to
$1500.00 for initial veterinary treatment and this to be repaid via invoice and thereafter the owners will have to provide credit card details to the veterinary practice for payment directly in excess if this amount. In the event of an emergency owners would be contacted immediately to notify of the situation.
