When it came to finding the perfect place to leave my baby Kevin the pug i hit the jackpot with Karen not only does she love dogs she treats every dog like family Kevin has been staying with Karen for 5 years now and is his second home I recommend Karen to everyone going away and know in my heart Kevin is happy and having a as good a holiday as I am.

I would highly recommend Learners on Leads for a home away from home for your 4 legged family members, Lilli my dachshund has had lots of stays and I always know she is in good hands. She is always happy when I pick her up after playing with the the dogs and having long walks on the property.

It is important to know when you cannot take your fur baby with you that they are in a secure and comfortable environment. Casey is always excited to stay with Karen and Scott at Learners on Lead Home Stay. Our family has complete peace of mind knowing that he is treated like a family member and when you pick him up (after what he considers an excellent holiday) he is so happy and clean. The accommodation is safe and well maintained and I highly recommend Learners on Lead Home Stay to everyone who truly care about their fur member of their family.

Finding Karen from Learners on Lead has been a godsend for my husband and me. We have no relatives in Dubbo and are often required to travel at little notice for urgent family matters.

Karen has looked after Sophia, our nearly three year old toy poodle, many times over the past two years. We are so thankful for her care and generosity in taking Sophia in, whether it be overnight, for a few days or for a week or more. Since going to Karen, Sophia has matured from being anxious with most dogs to being relaxed in the company of both small and large dogs and is able to meet and greet dogs on walks without the previous drama that we encountered.

Honestly, we couldn’t manage the commitments with our family and work without Karen looking after Sophia. We are so thankful for Karen and can highly recommend her services.

I cannot recommend the Homestay service offered at Learners on Lead highly enough.

As the owner of a reactive dog I know the stress it can cause to leave your dog in the care of someone else, but I have total trust in Karen and the service she provides.

I have known Karen for more than 7 years and have boarded my dog regularly during this time. Her care and attention to detail of each dogs needs is incredible.

My dog absolutely loves Karen and her Homestay time and it is so comforting knowing she will be safe and happy whilst we are away.

We are very grateful to have Learners on Lead locally in Dubbo, and I am not sure what we’d do without them!

Our dogs have been holidaying with Karen at Learners on Lead for the past 7 years. We couldn’t be happier with the home stay accommodation available – the yards are perfectly set up with sandpits, shade and snoozing spots. We love that we can choose the option for our dogs to sleep inside with their own bedding and toys, and we couldn’t ask for better care for them. They are fed their regular foods; they have their PJs put on when it’s cold and are treated like an extended part of Karen’s pack! When our rescue dog Zoe first started to stay, she was a little unsure about anything new or different, but she absolutely loves her holidays at Learners on Lead and now takes a little bit of convincing to come home again when her holiday time is over! We couldn’t recommend Karen and Learners on Lead highly enough and we wouldn’t choose anywhere else for our girls to board.

P.S. - Zoe and Nora said that Learners on Lead definitely gets a 5-paw rating!

Barney has been going to Learners on Lead for 3 years now. He loves going and it's a big relief to me that I can enjoy my holidays knowing he is safe, happy and well cared for. Karen is a wealth of knowledge and experience as well as being a genuine dog lover. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
