Dog boarding for Kendall
Your nearest dog boarding at Johns River, 12 minutes from Kendall — small numbers and open paddocks.
- Distance from the farm
- 12km
- Drive time
- 17 min
- Home pick up
- $40 flat
Kendall is one of our closest towns, barely a quarter of an hour from the gate. Plenty of our regulars come from up that way.
Only ten dogs stay at a time, so we know every guest by name — what they eat, who they like playing with, and when they've had enough and want a quiet spot.
Drop off yourself or add a $40 home pick up when you book.
Our paddocks are shared, so a farm stay suits social dogs who enjoy the company of other dogs. If you're not sure that's your dog, give us a call and we'll talk it through — a trial day usually answers it for both of us.

See the full rate card or book a trial day first.
Only 10 dogs at a time
We cap the farm at 10 guests so every dog gets real attention. That does mean Kendall school holiday and Christmas dates go early — send your request as soon as you know your travel dates.
Open 7 days, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. Arrival and collection by appointment.
We also collect from
Lorne, Kew, Herons Creek, Logans Crossing — all on the same Kendall run.
