Who We Are
About Us
Four Way Kennels & Canine Wellness Centre began in October 2002 when it won the New Business of the Year award. Thanks to the founding owners, Steve and Leonie Driver, it has developed into one of the Bundaberg region’s premier dog boarding facilities.
Over its +20-year life, FWK has left its mark with its beautifully manicured gardens, meticulous cleanliness and hygiene and excellent customer rapport, which has resulted in a strongly loyal local customer base. Twenty years after being founded, Steve and Leonie kindly handed over ownership of FWK to new owners Melissa and Warrick Boyle, who migrated from near Ballarat in Victoria in October 2022.
Melissa and Warrick’s profiles are available below. “I immediately saw the significant potential Four Way Kennels presented”, Warrick said after paying the facility two quick-fire visits back in 2022.
“It was too good an opportunity to pass up. In the years we’ve had the facility, we’ve used so many of our previously developed skill-sets to create what we call Four Way Kennels 2.0,” Melissa outlines.

The Owners
The ongoing success of Four Way Kennels & Canine Wellness Centre can be directly attributed to its personnel. The professional profiles of the FWK staff listed below reveal an extremely diverse spectrum of skills that are allowing FWK 2.0 to come into being.
Melissa & Warrick Boyle
Having a diverse set of commercial industry experience and university-level certifications, along with a deep understanding of a broad spectrum of animal species, has allowed Melissa and Warrick to hit the ground running as the new owners of Four Way Kennels.
Customer service comes naturally to Melissa after more than a decade of business administration and front-line customer-based roles, as it does to Warrick after more than 20 years in senior management in various manufacturing sectors and running his own businesses.
In particular, their experience as an ANKC-certified breeder of Tibetan Mastiffs has helped them during the transition to kennel owners.
“Owning a kennel business was a natural progression for us post the end of our TM breeding and after decades of running businesses for others. We have learnt plenty about what to do as well as what not to do, and we thought it was time we started doing it for ourselves in our own way. The feedback we’re getting is very positive and well-received, and we are driven to pursue this course.”
