Pet Boarding Bourne

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including working in a home boarding environment. I now offer drop-in visits and dog walking, providing reliable, calm and attentive care for pets in their own home or on their regular walks. I have experience with rescue dogs, young puppies, and more nervous or reactive animals, and I always adapt my approach to suit each pet’s needs. I’m trusted by friends, family, and clients to feed, walk, check in, and spend quality time with their pets, making sure they feel safe, settled, and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand how important consistency is for both cats and dogs, so I aim to keep timings regular to help them feel settled and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I take a calm, respectful, and reliable approach to make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own environment. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding, walking, medication if needed, and maintaining routines. I have experience with both confident and more nervous or reactive animals, and I always adapt my approach to suit each pet. I ensure your home is left secure after every visit, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Sarah was fantastic. She was welcoming and put me straight at ease leaving our kitten with her. Sarah sent lots of photos and our cat was obviously very relaxed and having a lovely time. I would definitely recommend Sarah as a pet sitter.”

“Ruby had a lovely stay with Evellin over a couple of days. She had lots of walks and was a very happy dog when I came to collect her and Evellin was very kind and caring. I would definitely book her in again when the opportunity arises and would thoroughly recommend her. Sally”

About: We have always had a dog as a family pet, from a puppy to a senior dog, Currently we have Daisy who is a 13 year old English Springer Spaniel. We have been the go to ones for both our family and friends whenever their dogs have needed looking after, overnight stays, walking etc. I hold a dog walking certificate. As we are currently not working we have plenty of time for playing and walking your dog, we are available to take boarders at a time to suit your working arrangements and are very flexible, for as short as 1 night. We have a large fully enclosed garden for lots of play, which your dog will have the run of , and as we have Daisy there will be always someone to play with.

“Absolutely amazing car for my parent’s dog, Winnie. My parents are so comfortable leaving her in their care - they get regular updates and reassurances. Winnie loves her time away. Thank you so much!!”

“We would highly recommend Cat to take care of your beloved dog. She is absolutely amazing and her love and devotion for dogs shines through. It was our first time leaving our Stanley on his own and she made his stay so wonderful. She gave us constant photos and updates which gave us confidence to enjoy our time away. He always looked so happy. We can’t thank her enough. Stanley is already looking forward to his next visit.”

“Our beautiful Reka had a lovely time staying with Louise; a great stay, beautiful home and she was so looked after, a very happy girl in a home away from home.”

Paul C.

“Jo and Ian were the perfect sitters for our Millie. They keep us updated throughout her stay re how she was getting on and sent photos so we could see how relaxed and happy she was, as well as being perfectly spoilt throughout her stay. We would definitely use them again.”

Jeanette R.

“Sandra went above and beyond when our train was delayed meaning we would struggle to pick up the dogs on time and she drove the 30 mins each way to drop them off at my daughter’s house. Both dogs seemed to have enjoyed their time with Sandra. Such a shame she is over an hour away from my home.”

Colin S.

“Bradley looked after Piglet and Pumba our sausage dogs and they had a wonderful mini holiday. We were sent regular updates & they had a wonderful time with Lincoln & enjoyed their walks. I felt really relaxed with them staying with Bradley & they would love to go back !!”

Laura W.

“Scott looked after our Samoyed Yuki for 10 days, it was our first time leaving her. Looked like she had an amazing time and I’m surprised she even wanted to come home as she made so many new friends. He sent regular pics and video & now I have to go get her a glow in the dark neon collar because she looked so cute in the one he used! Excellent sitter, would recommend & use again.”

Becky B.

“Lindsey was fantastic with Florence and sent us regular updates and pictures whilst we were away. Would highly recommend.”

Will D.

“A lovely young couple who came to our rescue after we were let down by family at the last minute. We contacted them that morning, and they welcomed Evie into their home just a few hours later. They gave us frequent updates and photos, took our very energetic Australian Shepherd on lots of long walks, and stuck closely to her routine. When we collected her, they gave us a detailed rundown of her stay and even gave us some candles to thank us for choosing them! They seemed genuinely delighted to have Evie and made her feel like part of their family, rather than simply treating dog sitting as a business. We’d happily book with them again!”

About: Hi! I'm a reliable, caring animal lover with a very active 4 year old labrador of my own. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, I'll make sure that they feel safe & happy whilst you're away. Whether it's walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their usual schedule, I'll care for your dog as if they were my own. I'm trustworthy, patient, and committed to giving you peace of mind, with plenty of updates along the way if you'd like them Please note; I am only available on weekends. My dog is very friendly but if it's an issue I can arrange for my partner to take care of him. I work full time so I am only available on weekends. My dog is very active and enjoys long walks in the Rutland Countryside, but I will work this around your dogs needs. I have a fenced garden, access to great walks and have a friendly dog to keep yours company, if thats an issue there is option of my dog going to my partners home.

“I’m sure if our dog Miro could talk he’d say how much he enjoyed another lovely stay with Linda and Craig. He comes back really relaxed and I’d recommend Linda always as she’s so tuned into the needs of Miro.”

Jennie R.

“Kaos really enjoyed his time away, he has some issues with having 1 eye and needing some meds but they looked after him well, even when he got stressed on day one. Calmed and enjoyed the rest of his stay. I would definitely recommend Billie and Kane as they were so understanding and he came back feeling happy and he was so excited when we got back which was lovely as he is heading to 16 years old but can be puppy like but needs the support too, Thank you both, can’t wait to book again..”

“Would highly recommend kayleigh, 2nd time she's cared for my dog overnight. And have to say he was well looked after, he definitely missed Bailey when he got back. 😊”

Sarah B.

“Kelly and her family were fantastic! It was my first time using Rover but it was perfect. I was kept updated with messages and pictures throughout the week I was away which was perfect and Kelly listened to everything that was needed as my dog has specific food allergies. I would definitely use again, thank you!”
