6 years ago Cosette the pug became one of our beautiful clients, we have boarded her a number of times. Today we received the devastating news that at 13 to, she has grown her wings and gone to the rainbow bridge 🌈 We send our deepest condolences and we will miss her cheeky barking and needy loving ❤️ Fly hight Cosette ###x

We are happy to take on your darling ferrets and dogs, in our home, as long as they are up to date with their vaccinations, flea treated and get along with other dogs 🥰 We currently own an 8yo Miniature Dachshund and a 5yo deaf French Bulldog, all of our ferrets have gone to the bridge from old age but we can still accommodate boarding for them 🥰

Please message our page, dog boarding is $35/day (owner supplying bedding & food), ferret boarding is $20/day (we supply caging/bedding & food). Enquire within 🥰

SJ In-Home Dog Boarding & SJ Ferrets will not be taking any clients for the foreseeable future. Our hugest gratitude and thanks to all of our beautiful clients over the years for trusting us with your darling dogs & ferrets for all of your boarding needs ❤️🐾🦦🐶

The OG is back 🥰 Nyx was the first dog we ever boarded back in 2018! Check out the 'Then & Now' photos 😍

We've been so blessed to have her board with us for over 6 years. She used to come along with her ferrety sisters (my grand babies I had bred). She's family, and we adore this little girl 🥰

This time I've picked her up with her feathery siblings 🐦🐦 We are pretty excited to have Arty & Pickle, the budgies, stay with us this time as well 🥰 Watch this space for some birdy spam!

Angus & Dolly 🥰 It's been nearly 4.5 years since we've had Angus in our care and it's so nice to have this cheeky guy back 🥰 His little sister Dolly has come out of her shell and she's a flatout nutcase 🤣

Don't forget to book your darlings in for boarding while you enjoy a lovely holiday 🥰

Hello family, friends, followers, clients and everyone in between 🥰

A few months ago we made a hard decision as a family to rehome Bobbi, although, a sad decision for us, it has proven to be wonderful for for her and us! Billy & Bunny are happier, more relaxed and more connected and settled than they've ever been 🥰🐶🐶 Bobbi is also very spoilt in her new home!

We are now able to start boarding in our home again, which is lovely as we absolutely adore having our friends dogs here while they can enjoy a holiday and know their babes are loved, safe and warm in our home 🥰

As of 1st September 2023, we are implementing our first price increase since we began boarding 5 years ago.

1 dog for $35/day
2 dogs for $60/day
3 dogs for $95/day

This price is for you, the owner, to provide food, if you would like us to provide food, we are more than happy to do this for $5/day extra per dog. Boarding for 30+ days will receive a 10% discount.

Please enquire via messenger if you need your dog/s boarded and would like to organise a meet & greet! 🥰 We are located in Elizabeth North.

‼️ Please note the following ‼️

We have 2 daughters under 2.5 so please ensure your dog is up to date with vaccinations, flea/worm treatment, is friendly with women/men and children, is aware of their surroundings (Jake is on a walking frame and in a wheelchair) and is doggy door trained. We also own ferrets which are strictly caged outdoors so please ensure your dog/s will be fine with being around a small outdoor pet. Safety of our daughters, us, our dogs, ferrets AND your dog/s is our upmost priority when in our care ❤️

My beautiful friend Diane has forced me to accept help 🤣🥹🥰 I've also had nearly half a dozen friends/clients tell me to set this up so here we go 👇🏻

There is so much more to this story and if you've been friends with me for nearly 6 years, you might know a handful of it, but there is a lot of behind the scenes I try to keep hidden/under control so that our world and lives aren't always controlled by this situation and the amount of negativity it breeds!

9 spinal surgeries and this time we really do need the help ❤️❤️

On behalf of Sammy and Jake, I have started this go fund me to help th… Diane Beckett needs your support for Jake & Sammy Johnston’s Spinal Surgery Nightmare

A big hello to our wonderful followers and clients, I come baring bad news that unfortunately we won't be able to accommodate any dog boarding at the home we are in at the moment 😔
Bobbi won't allow other dogs in her home or backyard and this is causing quite a lot of issues, we would never want our beautiful boarding dogs or clients to be worried about their gorgeous babies in our care and while Bobbi is like this, it's not suitable. She has proved this with the last 3 meet and greets we have had 😔

We are so very sorry for our menace of a dog who is causing issues 😔 A beautiful friend of mine who lives just around the corner offers a dog boarding service, she is lovely and her backyard is gated seperately for if and when it's needed ensuring safety of all beautiful pets 🥰 Please feel free to see her details here and book with Bianca 💗 Thank you for years of loyalty, recommendations, cuddles and company from your beautiful babies! We adore you and are very sorry! Photo of Billy because he's such a good longboy 🥰

Happy New Year from our family to yours! 🎆🎇🎊 We hope 2023 brings you everything magical and beautiful you harbour in your mind, body and soul and you accomplish wonderful things 🥰🙏

We do still offer dog boarding everyday of the year so don't forget about us when you want to go away on a relaxing holiday! We would love to care for your bestie for as little as $20/day 🥰 Meet & greets prior to bookings are necessary as we own 3 dogs and must ensure everyone gets along!

Much love, The Johnston's - Sammy, Jake, Amelia & Emma 💞

Sooki & Bruno are our wonderful regulars who stay with us twice a year and we love having them! Bruno is such a cheeky lovable boy and Sooki is a grumpy lady with seperation anxiety! The oddest couple! 🤣🥰🤣 Amelia absolutely loves them and they are so beautiful with her!!

Amelia is having her morning nap and Bruno is devastated, trying to find her everywhere and just begging me for his little buddy back 🥲🥰🤣
