Pet Boarding

We offer a variety of quality food choices, however, if your pet has specific dietary requirements you may choose to provide their own food. In this way, any changes to diet are minimised. At Redgum Vet & Pet Boarding, we promote the highest standards of health and safety for your pet, within the daily cleaning, feeding, and exercising regimes.

Grooming

Is your dog or cat looking a bit ragged or tired and you want to spruce it up a bit? Is the smell of your best friend interrupting your cuddle times? You are not the only one who wants to look good all year round, so get your four-legged friend groomed at Redgum today.

Behavioural Training

At Redgum, we have teamed with Leanne, our fully trained consultant who will spend time with you and your dog or dogs, in your own environment, before developing a detailed plan. From that point, she will explain to you the strategies you can put into place to achieve the behaviour you are seeking. A further follow-up session will allow you to fine tune the training under expert guidance.

Home Visits

Perhaps you have ordered a bag of food, but picking it up can be difficult. No worries – we will deliver to your house; perhaps your dog needs a groom, but you find it difficult to get in and out of the car. No worries – we will pick up your little bundle of fluff and deliver a well-manicured pooch!
