Top rated Leicester pet boarders

“I wish there were more than 5 stars for the rating. Eleanor deserves a 10. This was the first time we left our dog with a sitter. She was so attentive and took such good care of our dog that there are not enough accolades to say how wonderful the experience was for all of us. She sent videos and pictures during the day and she updated us on their activities. She was amazing!”


“Hugo and Julia were very nice and super flexible. Communication was a breeze and we really liked all the photo updates. Rudy was well taken care off and came home very happy. 😊”



“I forgot two items which she promptly ordered on amazon prime and had them delivered within two days. She provided great individualized attention for my dog and cat. She sent me texts and pictures reassuring me that my pets were doing well. Would highly recommend her.”


“Paul was great with my sweet girl. He took the time to get to know her and make me feel more comfortable about leaving my baby with a new person. He treated her well and I was happy to get the updates. Nora was lucky to spend the time with him. ??”


“Meli is a fantastic sitter! She took awesome care of my pup, Chunk. I really enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout the day. It was a comfort knowing that he was in good hands. You can tell that she is very passionate about animals!”


“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”



“Colette was absolutely wonderful. Winnie loved her! Her fenced in backyard is perfect for a small dog who loves to feel “free”! She sent us multiple photos and updates. We’d definitely use her again!”


“Jasper had the best time with Radhika and her family! She sent me updates and cute pictures throughout his stay, took him on lots of walks, and gave him lots of love. I’m so thankful I was able to find someone with experience to watch my high energy pup!”


“Victoria was incredible! I highly recommend her. I was a bit nervous about leaving my dog for a weekend away at work. But Victoria took care of him so well. She gave him a bland diet when his belly was upset and sent me daily photos of him playing. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”


“Erica was a great host for our two yorkie puppies! She sent us lots of pictures of them playing in the yard which was very nice. She took great care of them and we will definitely bring them back.”



“There aren’t enough words that can be used to describe how awesome Maria was with Cooper. She put us at ease with initially setting up a meeting to get Cooper comfortable with her. Then as the trip started she made sure to keep in contact with us and sent pictures of his day. As a bonus Cooper got to have a play mate and really enjoyed himself. We would recommend Maria to anyone who really wants to make sure their little guy is taken care of.”


About: I worked at a pet lodge for awhile, taking care of all the dogs who ranged from little to very large dogs and also cats. My work there was to clean up after the dogs and take them out to use the restroom four times a day. I am diligent and a great listener, and will do whatever it takes to make the customer happy. I am always on time and in the appropriate attire for working professionally. I am such an animal lover, whether it be dogs or cats. My family used to have a morkie, which was a Maltese and a Yorkie mix, she was precious but sadly ran away. I look forward to hopefully taking care of your lovely pet! Thank you.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes for over 10 years, including puppies, seniors, and rescues. I can walk, feed, bathe, and administer basic medications, always ensuring safety and love. I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2 PM, offering flexible and reliable scheduling. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment where your pet will receive constant supervision and care. I take dogs on regular walks and provide a safe, loving environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed.

“Emily and Matthew were great with Raven. From the moment we arrived I could tell Raven felt very comfortable with them. They sent lots of photos and had a great backyard for Raven to romp around in. I’d book with them again !”


“Andreana was absolutely amazing! First time using app and couldn’t have been more happier. She took great care of our 15 year old Yorkie for a week. Each day sending updates and photos! Highly recommend and will use again! Thank you!”


“Stevie had an absolute blast with Shea and Damien! They sent me updates and photos every day and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing she was in the best hands. Thanks so much!!”


“Very friendly family. There were lots of older kids at home to help care and play with my dog. They have a fenced in yard, which was extremely reassuring. My puppy was returned to me with a huge smile and a big tail wag!”


About: I’ve cared for many dogs of different ages and problems. I will take your dog for a walk. I have a good yard. I’m very reliable and trustworthy. I would be with your pet most of the day. Unless I have to run errands. The pet will have my apartment to roam. I generally only do one dog at a time except if they come as a pair. My yard is partially fenced. I would take your pet on on walks with the leashes. The dogs have free range of my apartment. Thanks!

“Liz was extremely helpful with our somewhat last minute booking. She was great with our dog and sent updates with photos while we were away. Would definitely recommend and would be happy to have her watch our dog in the future.”

“Isabelle is a no nonsense girl yet with a tender heart. She has a strong work ethic. She loves animals to put it simply. She has no fear of their behavior, messes, surprises. She has experience working with cats and dogs at a local kennel. She excelled there but due to COVID they cut back. Her confidence will make any pet feel safe, and at ease. She’s an asset worthy of serious consideration. Thankyou”
