Pet Housing South Brisbane

Special Offer

Our friends and next door neighbours at Forest Lake Kennels and Cattery and the Durack Pet Motel have recently had to close their doors for good. We’re sorry to see them go and wish them the very best in all their future endeavours.

We want to help ease the burden of pet owners who relied on this valuable service by giving all past clients a special offer for trying out Dolittles Pet Retreats. We know it’s hard switching from an old favourite to a new unknown, so we want you and your pet to get to know us!

If you’re looking for a new kennel, cattery, or pet motel, Dolittles is here for you. We have a 2.5 acre facility in Ellen Grove so there’s plenty of room for new additions to the Dolittles family.

Contact us now to find out more about our special offer and how we can be of service to you and your pets.

What is Dolittles Pet Retreats?

Dolittles Pet Retreats is a pet accommodation service that provides daycare, short stays, and long stays for pets of all shapes and sizes. We provide a home away from home for cats, dogs, birds, guinea pigs, snakes, and many more! 

Where is Dolittles Pet Retreats Located?

We’re conveniently located in Ellen Grove, near Durack and Forest Lake. Our kennels and catteries are just a short 15 minute drive from Durack and a ten minute drive from Forest Lake. Live further out or don’t drive? That’s okay. With our door-to-door service, you won’t need to lift a finger! Just let us know and we’ll come pick up your pet and bring them to our retreat in one of our state-of-the-art pet transport vans.

Don’t live in one of the above suburbs? Dolittles services the entire South Brisbane area! Our South Brisbane retreat is perfect for people living in Wacol, Carole Park, Camira, Heathwood, Springfield, Richlands, Rocklea, Goodna, and more.

What Services Does Dolittles Ellen Grove Offer?

Our 2.5 acre Brisbane South facility boasts six spacious exercise yards cushioned with well-maintained grass. The site is located only a short 15 minutes from Browns Plains, Mount Ommaney Shopping Centre, and Springfield Shopping Centre.

Our accessible facility offers both individual and group boarding kennels for dogs. Dogs are given regular exercise and playtime as well as access to our sandpits, shell pools, and plenty of toys and games.

Cats can look forward to enjoying our two-level enclosure with private areas for those that are less social. We offer a dual indoor and outdoor facility so your kitty can choose to roam about or stay snuggled inside. Cats are treated to enrichment toys and plenty of cuddles from our Dolittles staff! 

Dolittles Pet Retreat Extras

If your pet is extra energetic or used to getting their exercise in, we can provide additional playtime.

Does your pet have special dietary requirements like unique food or feeding times? Just let us know! We’re happy to accommodate any needs your pet may have.

Like a nice clean pet? So do we! Ask us about your hydrobaths and grooming options to keep your pet looking best in show.

Worried about ticks? We also offer tick prevention so your pet stays free from nasties.
