Their country address
A character-filled home.
A very special stay.
This is the Meander home at the heart of every stay—a character-filled country house set on four peaceful acres, with open paddocks, a seasonal creek and no neighbours in sight. It’s a place where dogs settle in, find their favourite spot and become part of the daily rhythm.

The thoughtful details
Who will care for my dog?
Amanda, the owner and resident host of Tasmanian Dog Stays, personally welcomes each dog into her home and provides their day-to-day care, company and attention.
What is included in a stay?
One-on-one attention, sleeping by the bed, a home-cooked dinner, treats, all-day play and company, and an afternoon meadow walk. Dogs are part of the household and never secluded.
How much is a stay?
A stay is $70 per dog, per night. A holiday season surcharge applies.
Where will my dog sleep?
In the house. Your dog settles into the household, sleeps by the fire and stays close to Amanda—never shut away from the family.
