Dog Boarding for Berwick

A genuine farm stay for Berwick dogs when your holiday heads east.

Insulated dog kennels and exercise yards at Eastside Boarding Kennels, Flynn
Trusted by Berwick Dog Owners

A Farm Stay Worth the Short Drive from Berwick

For Berwick families whose getaways point east - Gippsland, the Lakes, the coast or the High Country - Eastside Boarding Kennels makes a sensible stop on the drive out. Leave the dog with us, enjoy your break, and collect them happy on the way back through.

We will not pretend we are around the corner: at roughly an hour and twenty-five east, we are a deliberate choice rather than the closest option. The reason people make that choice is the setting - insulated, oversized kennels and secure grassed exercise yards on a quiet farm at Flynn, a world away from a suburban kennel block.

Run by the same family since 2003, we are trusted by travellers who want their dog to have real room and genuine one-on-one care while they are away, not just a place to wait.

Why Berwick Chooses Eastside

Care That Brings People Back, Holiday After Holiday

A natural stop heading east

If your holiday already takes you down the Princes Highway, dropping the dog at Flynn adds barely any time and saves doubling back.

Country space, not a suburban block

Insulated, oversized kennels and secure grassed yards on a quiet farm - genuine room to move rather than a tight urban pen.

Made for longer getaways

Our consistent routine and farm environment are ideal for the longer stays a proper holiday calls for.

Calm, individual care

Each dog is housed individually and exercised alone or with family members, helping them settle quickly away from home.

Diets and medication catered for

Bring your dog's normal food and any medication and we will keep their days running exactly as they do at home.

Add some extras

Treat them to a walk, a hydro-bath or doggy day care during the stay.
