Dog Boarding & Cattery in Canberra

The Country Estate
Providing a safe & loving environment for your pets

ABOUT TARA

 

Tara Estate is Canberra’s oldest and most respected pet boarding facility now with new owners and a new vision. The 10 acres of parkland are being transformed into Canberra’s best pet resort, providing the perfect environment for your pets.

We are dedicated to ensuring Tara is the best facility in the Canberra region. We are currently improving our facilities, services and accommodation to provide the best possible experience for our guests. Our mission is to provide your pet family members with a fun and stress free holiday so you can leave knowing your pet is in the best care possible.

Our experienced staff will provide a loving environment filled with enrichment based activities designed to ensure your extended family members are both physically and mentally active during their stay.

​Being the most centrally located boarding facility, next door to Canberra Airport and on the road to the Snowy Mountains or the South Coast, you will save precious time with your drop off and pick ups. If driving from Sydney or The Highlands through to the Snowy Mountains you will literally go straight past Tara! This allows for a convenient drop off, whilst saving you at least a night or two of boarding costs at the other end, as well as precious travel time. We will have extended opening hours on a Sunday evening allowing for a late check out.

​
Opening Hours
Monday to Saturday
8am to 11am & 3pm to 5:30pm
Sunday 3pm to 5:30pm

GUEST REVIEWS

 

“Absolutely brilliant service. We would recommend this kennel to absolutely anyone. Our dog goes to doggie day care which is a little known service of this business. The dogs get dropped off before you go to work, play with their doggy mates all day and then you pick them up at the end of the day. We just cannot rave about this business enough.”

GUEST REVIEWS

 

“For over 13 years, we’ve been using Tara to board our dogs when we’re out of town. Our dogs have always been well looked after, and they are happy to jump out of the car when we get to there. Our Jack Russell  loves playing with other dogs at Tara, and he looks happy when we pick him up.”

“Our cats have been staying at Tara for several years now. They come home looking exceptionally well cared for, and they cater for our diabetic fellow who requires twice daily insulin injections.”
