Brookdale Boarding Kennels
From your first phone call or visit you will soon understand when people say Brookdale is like no other Boarding Kennels in NZ.
Fun and Frolics are the order of the day at Brookdale with a huge emphasis placed on socialisation and expert care.
Brookdale leads the way in NZ with their state of the art ”Fully Air Conditioned” “Thermal Wrap Indoor Rooms” which means warm in winter and cool in summer perfect for the elderly, arthritic, convalescing, and dogs that are used to home comforts. No more cold Concrete. “Very clean Very comfortable”.
Hygiene is important at Brookdale so a full top to bottom clean takes place every morning with the best disinfectant available to the Veterinary profession.
Rooms are rechecked every afternoon and remade as necessary.
All Special Needs including Medical & Dietary are catered for, including Weight Watchers, Arthritis & Diabetes. With medication records provided to the owner on check out, 24hr room service & 24hr on call vets this is all part of the Brookdale experience.
We supply good quality dog biscuits that will provide all your dogs nutritional requirements.
If you prefer you are welcome to supply your dogs food if you have them on a special diet or they have issues with a changed diet.

Music, Gazebos & Paddling Pools and that outdoor experience playing with our other guests make holidays fun at Brookdale
Puppies are especially welcome at Brookdale. We love you to bring you puppy especially between 3 to 4 months. This age is very important. A window exists between 12 – 16 weeks where your puppy will remember experiences and skills for life. This is when you puppy instinctively learns their pack social skills from mixing and playing with older adult dogs (under our specialist supervision). Puppy school will not do this – puppies can’t teach each other what they don’t know. These social skills are extremely important for your puppy’s long term social development. Also we ensure your puppy’s first exposure to our boarding kennel is great fun and this is important for you & your puppy’s future happiness when visiting Brookdale. You will find your puppy will be happy to return.
Our presentation of each guest to you upon pick up is important to Brookdale, so a complimentary Therapeutic spa bath blow dry & groom is part of the Brookdale experience. A smelly dog in the car on the way home is unheard of for Brookdale clients.
Professional grooming and styling will be availabe from mid January, See our grooming page for our great prices
Busy people take advantage of our pick up & delivery service so let us know if we can help.
