WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUt US

Testimonials

Thank you Te Amo for the best stay away from home. Our Beau boy had a blast, we could tell from all the photos posted. Such excellent care, and he came back even more handsome – claws trimmed, smelling nice. He loved the pool, the outdoors, and cuddles.

Love that this place only takes 12 dogs at a time. Sam and her daughter are great caregivers, good communicators and great for a chat. Our Dobermann boy is always well looked after Her and comes back happy!

There are no words to describe how exceptional Sam and her team are. Nervously handing over my puppy to gradually introduce her to a kennel environment before our week long holiday – My pup just loved her stays and making friends at Te Amo Kennels.

After what felt like a long week without her, I got her back better than what I handed over to Sam – which on its own says a lot. We travel over an hour to get to Te Amo and I would travel further if I had too.

Te Amo Kennels must be the best kept secret in Auckland. I couldn’t wait to tell all Lugers friends who stay there now too. If Te Amo Kennels was a Hotel it would be 5 star! I was worried about how Luger would cope as he has never been in kennels, I needed have worried, he loves it! He always runs back to give Sam a lick goodbye and thinks this is his other family.

I can’t reccommend Te Amo Kennels highly enough, we can now go away and not worry about Luger as he is in the best care avaliable.

Thanks Te Amo Kennels, thanks Sam!

I just wanted to say thank you for looking after Maxie and Bella earlier in the week, and let you know that we are really thrilled at Bella’s behaviour. She has come home really balanced and happy – we had been concerned that being away would increase her anxiety and worry but it hasn’t. So thanks for all your care. Sara

Maxie and Bella

We are so happy to have found Te Amo Kennels, our funny little deaf girl is superbly looked after, it is just so reassuring to know that she is happy to return to stay, and we don’t have to worry about her as we know Sam, her crew, and her Mum in particular treat her as they would their own dog. Their service is exemplary, I would recommend Te Amo without hesitation to anyone looking for a quality home away from home for their dogs, whatever their requirements are.

Gavin and I would just like to thank you and your team again for the wonderful care that you gave to our precious Sophie while we were away on holiday. She came back to us looking happy and healthier than ever – like she had never been away!! We enjoyed looking at the facebook pictures – the dogs looked like they were having so much fun!

Te Amo Kennels is such a jewel out west for dogs and their families. To know your beloved four legged friend is having the most fun time ever running in paddocks, swimming, playing with other dogs and in the company of a true dog lover is wonderful.

This is the best kennel I have used and Samantha and her kennel has been a great addition to our pups life. Samantha has helped with training and advice and has kindly washed our furry friend before she’s returned home. Our pups super excited when we pull in the driveway as she knows she’s going to have a great time.
