Dog Boarding Burnham-on-Crouch

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a gentle heart and a knack for making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. Whether it’s energetic playtime, peaceful walks, or cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and even the occasional feathered friend. I’m attentive to routines, medication schedules, and special dietary needs, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your furry (or feathered!) family member will get more than just care — they’ll get companionship, affection, and plenty of love until you’re back home. Let’s make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️ I provide calm, reliable, personalised care that helps your pet feel safe, understood, and happy while you’re away. I follow feeding and walking routines, keep spaces clean, and offer enrichment that suits your pet’s personality. I’m attentive to behaviour and health, comfortable with basic medication needs, and always put safety first. You’ll receive clear daily updates, honest communication, and respectful care for both your pet in my cosy home I don't have any pets of my own so I can give yours all the attention they want and need. My garden is perfect for a mooch around and is totally secure. I don't open windows when I have cats staying here and there places they can hide or sit up high if they wish. All pets are allowed on my bed and sofa, hair doesnt bother me. I welcome it all !

About: Me and my partner Josh, 22 & 24 have had pets all of our lives and would love to take your pets in as our own! We have lots of free time in the day, plus being able to give your pets the holiday of a lifetime is so much fun :) Me and Josh won’t need to leave your pet on its own as there will always be one of us in the house based on our jobs. We both work away at different times of the year and this is a great opportunity for us to fill a pet sized whole in our life’s as a young couple. I have a fenced garden with lots of space to run around. Alarmed and CCTV house. More than happy to keep your pet in its normal routine and also happy to take for extra walks and special care as it’s your pets holiday too!

“Our Cora has a wonderful stay with Leah and her family. She was definitely one of the family whilst there! Leah kept me updated with regular messages and beautiful photos! Will definitely use her again and would recommend to anyone. 10/10”

“Lexie clearly loved her holiday with Juliet, I know this because in the daily video updates Lexie’s tail was non stop the whole time. We didn’t know what to expect when leaving our family furry with effectively a stranger while we go off on holiday and enjoy ourselves as we have always left our previous dogs with family. Juliet was fantastic and felt like an old friend from the minute we met her, she was so relaxed around our maniac of a springer spaniel (if you know you know) we knew straight away she was the one. Daily videos with hilarious commentary eased any worries we had and it was lovely to see her settling in with Juliet’s family too. I would not hesitate to leave Lexie with Juliet and her family again and are in the process of arranging her next stay.”

“Mima is a fantastic dogsitter. We were receiving photos and updates and spent three days away with no worries about our dog as we knew he was in good hands. Our dog had more walks than he usually had at home and made friends with Mima's dog who is very friendly. Having your doggy with Mima really puts your mind at ease!”

“Great service! Kept me updated, by sending photos. Prompt responses alaways. To Max on with short notice and very understanging. Will be booking again for sure 😁”

About: 7 years experience ✅️ Hi, my name is Victoria. I am a pet sitter in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, close to the beach and surrounded by lots of beautiful parks and woods. From a young age, I have always loved animals of all kinds (sometimes more than humans🤭!). Growing up, we had cats, rabbits and hamsters at home, so animals have always been a big part of my life they bring me so much peace and happiness. When I got married, my husband and I welcomed a Beagle cross into our family from a puppy. We sadly had to rehome him when he was seven years old, which was a very difficult and heart breaking decision for us. As a family, we have always loved animals, and my son was especially gentle and caring with our dog, knowing when to play with him and when to give him his own space. I love exploring different places on my walks, whether that's the woods, the beach or beautiful country parks, so having a furry friend to enjoy these adventures with would be wonderful company. I’m a caring, reliable and genuinely animal-loving person, and I will always treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to give them lots of fuss, cuddles and attention, while also respecting their individual personalities and giving them space when they need it. I can offer flexible and personalised pet-sitting services to suit you and your pets, and I’m also happy to help with things such as flea and worming treatments if needed. For your peace of mind i am DBS CHECKED/FULLY INSURED/CPR & FIRST AID TRAINED. If you're looking for a pet sitter who genuinely loves animals and will give your pets plenty of love, care and attention, then feel free to get in touch - I’d love to hear from you! — I’d be very happy to chat about your pets and how I can help! Thank you, Victoria 🐾 I’m currently a stay-at-home mum, so I have lots of time, love and attention to give to an animal who needs it. I also drive and have an estate car with a large boot, so there’s plenty of room for dogs to travel safely and comfortably. I’m also available for drop-in pet visits, whether your pet needs feeding, some playtime, company, cuddles or just a little bit of attention while you’re out. Since rehoming our dog, I’ve really missed having a furry friend to take on walks, discovering new places to explore together and giving them all the love, care and attention they deserve. When we had our dog, we would go out every day and find somewhere new to explore, whether that was the beach, woods or country parks. He absolutely loved going on adventures, meeting other dogs and having lots of exciting new smells to investigate! I would really love the opportunity to share those walks and adventures with another dog and give them the same love and happiness that I gave to our own. 🐾❤️ We live in a spacious two-bedroom flat with access to a communal garden area. Pets are welcome on the beds and sofas — our dog used to sleep in bed with us, so we’re more than happy for your dog to do the same if they’re comfortable. I’m happy to administer flea and worming treatments if needed. We don’t currently have a crate, as we got rid of ours because our dog found it distressing, but I’m more than happy to use your crate if your dog is happy and comfortable being crated. Our dog suffered from severe separation anxiety, so I completely understand how difficult and stressful this can be for both dogs and their owners. I was unable to leave him alone, and he came everywhere with us. If your dog experiences separation anxiety, please be assured that I will not leave them alone and will do everything I can to make them feel safe, settled and comfortable. I can also provide home visits, including check-ins, walks, playtime and feeding, if that’s what your pet needs. 🐾

“We were very nervous about leaving our puppy and looked into lots of different options before speaking to Rita. We were away for 18 nights and I couldn't recommend Rita enough. She replied straight away and arranged a house viewing. We went with our pup, Teddy, and she answered all our questions. Whilst we were away she kept us updated with photos and check ins. Teddy had a wonderful time. We are away again next year and won't hesitate to leave him with Rita and her family again.”

“Finding a great dog sitter can often feel like searching for a needle in a haystack, but I was fortunate enough to come across Hayley and Alan. From the moment we met, I could tell they were a genuine animal lover, showing patience, enthusiasm, and a deep understanding of canine behavior that put my mind at ease. During my dog's stay, Hayley provided regular updates with photos and videos that showcased my dog enjoying walks and playtime which was beyond my expectations. What impressed me the most was the personalized attention my dog received, ensuring a happy and stress-free experience. Not only did I come back to a content and well-cared-for pet, but I also gained a trusted dog sitter whom I would highly recommend to any pet parent out there. Your family is absolutely lovely! Socks will definitely be coming back for another sleepover! 🥰🥰”

About: I’m a lifelong dog and cat lover with many years of experience caring for pets, including my own dog and my family’s much-loved “granddogs”. I’m patient, reliable and attentive, and treat every pet as if they were my own, always putting their safety, comfort and individual needs first. I offer dog walks, dog and cat drop-in visits, doggy day care, boarding and dog/cat sitting, providing plenty of attention, affection and companionship. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime or prefers a quieter, more relaxed environment, I’ll make sure they receive the care and attention that suits them best. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine as I already have my own dog, so walks, feeding, playtime and plenty of attention are a normal part of my day. I have good flexibility throughout the week and can arrange walks, drop-in visits and other pet care around my existing routine. I provide a safe, relaxed and caring environment and always follow each owner’s usual routine and instructions. I have a friendly Pomeranian of my own who is used to being around other dogs. Pets in my care receive plenty of attention, regular toilet breaks, walks, playtime and lots of fuss. When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of both their routine and their surroundings and make sure they feel safe and settled.

About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life, and since the age of 14 I’ve regularly supported my mum with her local dog boarding and walking services. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and temperaments - getting to know their individual personalities, routines and, of course, all their little quirks! In 2022, my family welcomed a gorgeous mini Cavapoo of our own. She’s full of personality, endlessly entertaining and completely besotted with a ball. Having a dog of my own has given me an even greater appreciation for just how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and how important it is that they feel safe, comfortable and happy. I’m confident with dogs and naturally patient, attentive and affectionate. Whether your dog is energetic and ready for an adventure, a little more cautious and in need of reassurance, or simply happiest pottering along at their own pace, I’m very happy to adapt to them. My superpower? Creating a calm presence around any dog. I love taking the time to build trust and make sure every dog feels comfortable being themselves around me - with plenty of fuss, playtime and ball throwing along the way! I’m currently a full-time mum, which means my schedule is lovely and flexible! I’m generally available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins and plenty of four-legged company. I’m happy to work around your dog’s usual routine wherever possible, so please feel free to get in touch with the days and times you need and I’ll do my best to accommodate. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I have a secure, fully fenced garden with an open view from the house, so dogs can be easily seen and supervised while they explore and enjoy some fresh air. All gates are kept securely locked for extra peace of mind. Inside, I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your dog feel most at home. I have space for a crate if that’s their familiar safe place, or, if they prefer, they’re welcome to have free roam of the house and make themselves comfortable alongside my friendly little Mini Cavapoo! I know every dog is different, so I’ll always take the time to understand their individual routine, boundaries and quirks, helping them feel safe, settled and cared for while they’re with me.

“Our Cocker Spaniel stayed with Ashleigh for 4 nights. She instantly put us at ease with her great communication and photos of their outings. It was clear from the updates provided that Faber was happy with Ashleigh. We would highly recommend Ashleigh and will definitely be using her again in the future ☺️”

“James and Deborah looked after my dog for a week at the end of May. I found them friendly, professional and with a genuine care for the animals they looked after. Great communication and regular updates were an added benefit. A safe and happy temporary home for my pup. Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I was a child. I’ve looked after neighbours,friends and family’s pets throughout my life. I connect with all animals and love giving them the best life possible. They’re NOT ‘just’ a pet, they’re sentient beings with emotions and personalities and worthy of love, proper care and respect. I’m currently not working and have no pets so your fur baby will have my full attention where I can give them play,walks, love and cuddles. I have a fenced garden, your dog will always be supervised and not out of my sight at all times. I can crate your dog if needed. If there’s any special requirements they will be catered for. If I’m at your home your pet will be cared for seamlessly in the same way you do.

“I couldn’t be happier, Alfie’s first visit with Jessica was perfect. As Alfie is diabetic and needs insulin injections twice a day, Jessica was more than capable and happy to administer them to him. Will certainly be using Jessica again”
