What Ayaimah Families Say

Don't just take our word for it. hear from the families who've welcomed Ayaimah Golden Retrievers into their homes.

I first started following Karen at the end of 2023 when someone I follow on Instagram brought their pup through Karen. For the best part of a year I watched this beauty pup grow through a screen. I had never met this dog but through Instagram you could see that he was the most beautiful dog with the most beautiful temperament. When my Husband said, he was ready to get a dog for our girls, I knew exactly who I wanted to purchase our Puppy from. I emailed Karen, and within 20mins I had a reply and not only that, when I mentioned the person who I follow on Instagram, Karen knew exactly who she was.
Karen and I kept in touch from the end of 2024 to the first half of 2025 when we were ready to be added to the list to receive an Ayaimah puppy. Karen’s communication throughout that time was exceptional and no question asked was ever a bother and from the day the litter was born Karen showed and shared every little detail about the pups which for us was just amazing. She truly does go above and beyond for the pups and the care she gives the mother of the pips as well.
Her knowledge of the breed and just her gentle loving nature is second to none. Karen will forever be our Pups first mum and the best first mum Puppy’s could asked for and we will always keep Karen informed of our Pups journey.

If you are looking for an amazing breeder , look no further! For years I have been looking at breeders trying to find one that ticked all my boxes. One that was passionate about the breed and someone that prepared their puppies for the world they were steeping into. The experience we had with Karen was nothing like we had before. She went above and beyond to ensure our boy made it to his new interstate home safe and sound. We honestly can’t thank Karen enough for our beautiful boy. We have got so many comments about his nature and condition. When the time comes to add to our family again we will not hesitate to add another Ayaimah golden to our family.

Wonderful breeders, the communication from before the mating, during the pregnancy, after the birth and after bringing my pup home has been fantastic. Karen had a Facebook page set up and posted daily pictures and videos of the entire process which made it so inclusive even though I wasn’t actually there. We got to see all the milestones such as opening their eyes. My pup Matilda has now been here with me for approximately 6 months, she’s a beautiful happy, energetic, loving and intelligent dog and fits in perfectly with my life and my other Goldie!! Highly recommend

We have received a few pups from various breeders over the years and the experience we had with Karen was A+. To be taken along the breeding experience every step of the way and daily updates is so special and unique . The care and training that goes into the pups before they even come home is remarkable and once your fur baby is home with you , the results speak for themselves . Karen provides you with all the information , tools, training advice that you need on nurturing your pup to be the best dog as it grows. If you’re looking for the best of the best this is it !

Karen supported me with acupuncture treatments for my 14-year-old retriever, a few months before he passed away. Her gentle, calming presence made him feel safe, and he truly saw each session as a special spa treatment. After his passing, I told Karen we would reach out when we were ready again.

I continued to follow her on Facebook, and three years later, I contacted her to ask about being placed on the waiting list for a puppy from Maverick. From the very beginning, Karen kept us informed every step of the way. We were overjoyed to learn that a litter from Mav and Macy was on the way. When she shared the ultrasound images with us, it truly became real—we were going to be puppy parents again.

Karen created a private Facebook group that gave us daily updates, photos, and videos throughout the pregnancy. It turned into a beautiful journey that brought so much excitement to our family. Our adult children and friends joined in too, making it a shared experience we’ll always cherish.

Karen has been incredibly warm, knowledgeable, and caring throughout this journey. Her background as a vet nurse, combined with her deep understanding of the breed and kind-hearted nature, gave us complete confidence from day one. Our family feels truly blessed to have chosen Ayaimah Golden Retrievers.

Thank you, Karen, for our beautiful boy, Beau. It’s been nine weeks, and he has already filled our lives with so much joy and love.

We can’t recommend Karen and Ayaimah Golden Retrievers highly enough. Before getting a dog, we wanted to do our research and ensure we were buying from a reputable breeder. From our very first interaction with Karen, we knew we were in the best hands.

It’s clear how much pride and care she puts into her dogs and the entire breeding process. We absolutely love our girl, Lucy, and from the moment we picked her up, she was already well-adjusted and quickly picked up toilet training (thanks to the time and effort Karen puts into those first eight weeks). Overall, such a great experience and would recommend them to all.
