Our New Home

From March 2021 we will be located at the Spotswood & Kingsville RSL as the new home of Gourmet Pawprints. This incredibly spacious and completely fenced dog friendly venue has so much to offer Peeps and Paws. We think the best bit about this is being able to support a funky venue who is community minded and just loves dogs. Bella the Dog Welcoming Bus will have a nice cosy place to rest her wheels and there is a bar to enjoy after our tours on Saturdays - where you can meet other folks at their Doggy Afternoons. Wooo Hooo we say! Located at The Avenue Spotswood -literally just off the Westgate Bridge - it is easy to access and has plenty of parking. 

Meet The Team

Kerry….Chief Gourmet Officer

Kerry designed Gourmet Pawprints to bring her passion of food and wine to dog lovers. Kerry has a Diploma in Canine Communication and a keen eye for detail and planning, the creation of the business has been an amazing journey. It was an easy choice for Kerry to leave the mundane corporate world to go exploring in the wine regions of Victoria. Some might say, why hadn’t she thought of this sooner.

Bella…. the Dog Welcoming Bus

Dog Friendly Experiences is what we do and we couldn't do it without Bella. She is spacious and comfortable for all guests. Sit back and enjoy the view and we even don't mind if our 4 legged guests want to lick the windows! With 45 luxury coach style seats there is plenty of room for everyone.

Diesel….Chief Paw Officer

I am the face behind Gourmet Pawprints, pretty cool huh! I was raised in a loving Kelpie rescue until Mumma came along to bring me to my fur-ever home when I was 8 weeks old. I am an only fur-kid, so I pretty much rule the roost. I have a bed in the office Chesterfield for when I need to supervise.

Our Philosophy

Our Philosophy is the cornerstone of how we deliver a memorable experience and interact as a team:

Happy: We will deliver a welcoming, inclusive and fun environment which allows us to enjoy being with our dogs.

Healthy: We will deliver an experience which focuses on a healthy environment that demonstrates respect for each other, regardless of how many legs you have.

Safe: We will deliver the highest standard of safety to ensure everyone’s wellbeing.

As an award winning business, we strive for excellence in all our 2 and 4 legged guest interactions.
