Rabbit Boarding
Melbourne's only luxury indoor rabbit boarding hotel!
Willow Woods Bunny Boarding is a beautiful and tranquil indoor rabbit boarding facility, custom-designed just for bunnies.
We believe an indoor environment suits rabbits better as the ambient temperature can be controlled, the risk of attacks by predators can be largely eliminated, and the risk of contracting Myxomatosis or Calicivirus through mosquito bites can be reduced.
Note: We are currently not taking bookings as we are looking to relocate closer to the city in response to customers' requests for a more convenient location. We look forward to boarding your bunnies & guinea pigs again at our new premises in the new future. Stay tuned for announcements!

“I cannot stress enough how thankful I am that we have access to such a great bunny boarding facility in Melbourne - Our rescue bun is only approximately two years old and has been to hell and back with health issues and vet visits, which has always left us worried putting him into boarding. Willow Woods went absolutely above and beyond to keep our bunny safe and healthy, and unfortunately a health issue did arise during his last stay - however, Willow Woods were extremely proactive with getting him to our preferred vet to be seen ASAP, and bent over backwards for our little boy to make sure he was okay. We will absolutely continue to use Willow Woods again and again for boarding, as we have so much faith and trust in them as they know what they are doing.”
– Nicole Y.

“I have no hesitation
s about recommendi ng Willow Woods to any bunny owner. Last year, I left my 2 bunnies there for a month, one of which is very shy, and the other who had been extremely unwell and in hospital for the week leading up to our departure. I was absolutely stressed to the max and didn’t want to leave, but Willow Woods was totally awesome the whole time. My bunnies are booked in again for their 2nd visit and I know that I will be able to relax on my holiday, knowing that they will be well looked after.” – Marina C.
“The place is clean, very nicely spaced and air conditioned for the bunnies. When I went there, all the bunnies were very relaxed. My bunnies had no problem adjusting themselves. Thank you Willow Woods!!! You are the Star!”
– Milon P.
“Awesome place. I needed emergency boarding for the buns' cousins. Without hesitation, Willow Woods offered to take them in even though they were already fully booked for Christmas and made them a space to stay for 2 weeks. The trio loved their stay with Willow Woods.”
– Joelle L.
“My little Cookie bun had been very unwell with impacted bowels and weight loss for almost 2 months before it was time to check in to willow woods. My partner and I had to go overseas for 3 weeks. I was very anxious about leaving him there because he was pretty vulnerable. We were updated throughout our holiday with photos of Cookie and notified on how he was doing. When we collected him he looked better than he ever has been before! He's gained weight, healthier coat and binkying again. We can't praise Willow Woods enough. Thank you so much. Super recommend to anyone else.”
– Michelle B.

“First time I'd ever left my shy rabbit. Hugo is 6. Everything was just fine and little extras like photos and videos made all the difference. 3 weeks is a long time and I'm glad I'd left him with Willow Woods with their experience. And Hugo is home & binkying around, no stress, so it makes me think he had a little fun too. Oh and its super clean. Thank you very much.”
– Julie A.

My husband dropped our bun off as I was interstate, and you were prompt and responsive to all my queries and the photo updates were a relief to see our bun so happy. Thank you again for the clean, safe and beautiful facilities for the buns! Love the work you do and we highly recommend this place to board your buns.”
– Thy N.
“Willow Woods is a rabbit owners dream. They provide high quality care in their grooming and boarding services and are so passionate about rabbits. They are always happy for me to pop by and offer any advice and assistance. The first thing I say to any new bunny friends is "Have you been to Willow Woods?" Support this local bunny business instead of pet stores and you won't ever regret it!”
– Emma J.

You are a true bunny friend. You will be seeing a lot of Simba as time out is needed from the family and enjoy a short holiday with the Willow Woods family. Thank you once again, Willow Woods.”

“We have boarded our bunny here a couple of times now. All rabbits in their care are provided with a trustworthy & comfortable indoor environment. The owners are very knowledgeable about rabbits, they provide daily food supplies, exercise and cage clean-up to the boarders. Our bunny was well cared for with lots of love and attention. You can bring treats and toys, to make your bunny comfortable during boarding period. They even sent regular photos and videos while we were on holidays. Their new indoor facility is spacious, bright, with controlled temperature. Good to see they have grooming services now! I'd highly recommend Willow Woods boarding services and their genuinely caring owners.”
– Inge M.

– Peta S.
“What an amazing service you provide! Thank you so very much for taking care of my two babies (especially grumpy Lola) whilst I went away. Definitely recommending you to all my friends who have bunnies!”
– Rebecca A.
“My bunny Binky Rose stayed at Willow Woods for 8 nights. While she was there, I was sent photos of her and a cute video of her playing with a new toy that she had as a fun thing to do. Something new to her that wasn't from home. It was so cute to watch. To me, this showed that Willow Woods went beyond caring for Binks, but caring for me to ensure that I wasn't fretting and was reminded that she was in good hands. My bunny came home very healthy and happy. She was relaxed and her usual un-stressed self. I feel so lucky to have a bunny home away from home for my girl while I'm away. I know she is nurtured & safe. The environmen
t is lovely. The pen sizes are good and the facility is well set out. Highly recommended.” – S Whitten.
“Very friendly and professional. I would recommend this service to anyone needing temporary care for their rabbits.”
