Fifty years of happy holidays.

Xantah has looked after Pretoria's dogs and cats since 1976. Today Harry and the team carry it on: clean, spacious kennels, a cattery of its own, good food, and time every day to play.

Owners come back for the regular feedback while they're away, and for pets who come home happy. Some drive 70 km to get here.

Life at Xantah

  • Thank you to Harry and his team who looked after my four cats so well. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were safe and cared for.

  • The kennels are neat and clean with lots of space for your fur babies to get around and play. Xantah also feed them high-quality food and take time to play with the animals regularly.

  • Our older dog was under medication and was monitored and treated by the on-site veterinarian. His condition improved significantly!
