Life around Mandurah’s canals and waterways means bigger dogs, bigger yards, and pets used to plenty of room to move.
Rather than a cramped indoor set-up, our 20-acre grounds in Karnup give your pet real space, real supervision, and a team who’s been doing this since 1986:
Leaving your pet in someone else’s care is a big decision, more so when there’s a drive between you and Karnup. At Camelot, we’ve built our reputation on three things: experience, compassion, and consistency.
For Mandurah families, that means:
– Just 15-20 minutes from Mandurah’s canals and waterways, set on 20 acres in Karnup.
– Real grassed space to run, not a fenced yard squeezed between canal blocks.
– Separate accommodation for dogs and cats, with two kennel areas split by size.
– Daily exercise and enrichment, so canal-side dogs keep their routine while you’re away.
– Trained staff on-site during operating hours, not a rotating roster of casual sitters.
Whether you’re heading out on the water or flying out of Perth, you’ll get clear updates throughout the stay. That’s the Camelot difference, and it’s why so many Mandurah pet owners come back year after year.
Whether you’re heading overseas, back to the office, or simply need a break, Camelot offers a full suite of premium pet care services tailored to every lifestyle.
A few things we need sorted before your pet’s first stay:
Vaccination — Dogs: current C5 certificate · Cats: current F3 or F5 certificate (minimum F3)
Flea & worming — recommended, not required
Behavioural assessment — a short pre-visit check before your pet’s first stay
Own food (if supplying) — pre-portioned, labelled, +1-2 days extra (fee applies; free if vet-prescribed)
Bedding & toys — provided by us, no need to pack; we can’t take responsibility for personal items brought in
It’s about 15-20 minutes from Mandurah to our Karnup grounds. Allow a few extra minutes at drop-off so our team can properly settle your pet in.

Around 15-20 minutes’ drive — we’re set on 20 acres in nearby Karnup.
They’ll stay in separate areas — dogs in our brick kennels split by size, cats in their own Royal Cattery away from the dogs.
Our small-dog schedule is much gentler than the large-breed groups. We prioritize lap time, short exploratory sniffing, and frequent cuddle breaks.
No need — we provide all bedding and toys. We recommend leaving personal items at home, as we can’t accept responsibility for anything damaged or misplaced during the stay.
A vaccination certificate (if not already on your pet’s profile), any medications clearly labelled with instructions, and — only if supplying your own food — pre-portioned meals with a day or two extra (a fee applies for owner-supplied food; no charge for vet-prescribed diets).
