More than just boarding kennels we have extra fun activities to keep your pet healthy and active during their stay​

Pet Activities

From nature walks to beach trips and everything in between! The paw-sibilities for extra fun are endless!

We go above and beyond to make sure your pets have a five-star stay at our Gold Coast boarding kennels.

We just love having fun with our Barkroyal guests and go out of our way to create an environment where your pets are safe and stimulated during their stay. We offer structured, supervised playtime with experienced, trained staff who love having fun with your pets!

For dogs, it’s all about getting to know your pet and how they like to play before we introduce any friends. Our yard sessions and activities are grouped according to size, temperament, breed and friendships – and we always check with you first before introducing your pet to new friends. Guest welfare is everything to us so we carefully manage playtime and activities to ensure all of our guests are happy and safe during their stay. We aim to exceed your expectation of boarding kennels with activities designed for maximum fun in a safe and supportive environment.

Why train your dog with us?

Luxury Board & Train allows your dog to immerse themselves in the training experience. Our motivational based training methods are tailored to suit your dog – giving them a reason to learn and be involved. All dogs are unique and they respond to new situations and training differently. We take time at the beginning to set goals before we get to work learning and having fun. Graduation includes a full handover with you so you can continue to reinforce and build on your training together at home.
