A DIFFERENT KIND OF KENNEL STAY
Space to settle.
Time to be themselves.
Fortuna Park is intentionally small. That means we can learn each dog's normal, notice the little things and shape their stay around the routines that help them feel secure.
Dogs are never mixed with dogs from another household. Each guest enjoys their own accommodation, individual grassed run and private paddock time, without the pressure of a large group environment.
Private paddock time
Daily time outside to sniff, move, toilet, play or simply wander at their own pace.
Personal routines
Meals, medication and established care routines can be followed with clear instructions from home.
Experienced eyes
A veterinary nurse, qualified trainer, groomer and registered breeder lives on the property.
OUR KENNELS
Practical and secure.
Comfort through the seasons.
Our kennels are built from brick, concrete and secure wire, creating straightforward spaces that are easy to keep clean and comfortable.
We are best suited to small and medium dogs. Larger dogs may be considered individually, depending on their size, temperament and care needs.
Solid construction
Brick, concrete and secure wire accommodation designed for safety, hygiene and everyday comfort.
Summer comfort
Cool-mist systems and fans help keep air moving and guests comfortable through the hotter months.
Paddle-pool play
Paddle pools are available for dogs who enjoy cooling off and playing in the water.
Room to moveA CALM, FLEXIBLE RHYTHM
A day shaped
around the dog.
We keep the day predictable without making it rigid. Weather, age, confidence, health and what each dog enjoys all influence how their time is spent.
- Morning
Health check, breakfast & fresh air
Every guest is checked, fed to their normal plan and given time outside to begin the day.
- Daytime
Paddock time, enrichment & rest
Private outdoor sessions are balanced with quiet downtime so dogs are not kept in a constant state of excitement.
- Evening
Dinner, final outing & settle
The pace slows for dinner, medication where required, another comfort check and a restful night.
SCENT · TEXTURE · COLOUR · CHOICE
A garden made
for curious noses.
Sniffing is a natural, absorbing activity. Our sensory planting gives dogs an unhurried opportunity to investigate different aromas, textures and colours.
Our full collection includes thirteen carefully chosen living plants. Availability changes with the seasons, and every garden visit is supervised and adapted to the individual dog.
The gardens are for enrichment—not treatment. Concentrated essential oils are not used.
Basil
Soft foliage and a gentle herbal scent for slow investigation.
Catnip
A distinctive aroma that adds interest and variety.
Clary sage
Broad leaves, textured flower spikes and a complex herbal scent.
Lemon balm
Bright, lemony foliage for supervised scent exploration.
Marigolds
Warm, high-contrast colour and textured blooms for visual interest.
Marshmallow
Soft leaves and delicate blooms for gentle sensory variety.
Mint
Fresh, cooling aroma and richly textured leaves for curious noses.
Blue & yellow pansies
Bold contrasting colours add another form of gentle stimulation.
Curly parsley
Dense, frilled foliage and a crisp scent in our managed planting.
Rosemary
Hardy foliage with a strong, recognisable aroma.
Thyme
Fine, low-growing foliage with a concentrated herbal scent.
Violets
Delicate fragrance, soft flowers and visual interest.
Yarrow
Feathery foliage and clustered flowers add texture and variety.
Designed for supervised sniffing. Dogs do not have unrestricted access to eat the garden. Health concerns and treatment always belong with a veterinarian.
CARE THAT NOTICES THE DETAILS
For the dogs who need
a little more thought.
Medication welcome
We can administer routine medication when supplied in original packaging with clear written directions. Dogs taking anti-anxiety medication are assessed individually.
Meals from home
Bring their normal food, portioned and labelled, to keep diet changes and tummy upsets to a minimum.
Behaviour-aware care
Please tell us about anxiety, aggression, fears, handling sensitivities and coping strategies when booking so we can assess whether boarding is appropriate.
Emergency support
If veterinary attention is needed, we will contact you or your nominated emergency person and arrange appropriate care.
A GLIMPSE OF THEIR STAY
Country air,
grass underfoot.
GETTING YOUR DOG READY FOR A STAY
Start small.
Build familiarity.
Most dogs settle into kennels or adjust well with time. Many look forward to coming back and are genuinely happy to be here.
Try one night first
If your dog is new to boarding and you are planning an extended holiday, begin with an overnight sleepover during an off-peak school-term period.
Build up gradually
A two- or three-day stay is a helpful next step, giving your dog time to become familiar with us, the kennels and the surrounds.
Prepare for peak periods
Familiarity can make a longer stay much easier, especially during busier periods when there is more activity and noise.
SIMPLE, TRANSPARENT PRICING
Everything they need,
included.
Boarding is charged by calendar day, not by each 24 hour period. The arrival day and collection day are both included because a kennel is reserved and staffed for your dog on each of those days. For example, a Friday arrival and Sunday collection is charged as three days. Your dog's normal food is supplied by you so we can keep their diet consistent.

A note about our new rates
With the start of the 2026–27 financial year, we have made a small increase to our boarding rates. We have kept the increase as low as possible because we know the cost of living is hard on everyone. Unfortunately, rising power, insurance, cleaning, maintenance and other essential costs affect us too. Thank you for understanding and for supporting our small, family-run business.
Planning a longer stay?
Submit your dates through our booking system and we will confirm availability, suitability and any care details before the stay. Peak-season surcharges may apply.
BEFORE THEY ARRIVE
A smooth handover starts
with good information.
We confirm each dog's suitability and current requirements during booking. Please make sure all details are honest and up to date.
Who we welcome
Most small and medium, friendly, sterilised dogs whose needs can be safely met in our boutique setting. Larger dogs may be considered individually.
Bring from home
Clearly labelled food, medication in original packaging and written care instructions. We will confirm anything else needed.
Share the whole story
Tell us about health conditions, allergies, fears, escape behaviours, reactivity and changes in your dog's normal behaviour.
Plan changes early
Please give at least seven days' notice if you need to cancel or change a confirmed booking.
READY WHEN THEY ARE
