Pet Boarding in Canterbury

“Shadow had a brilliant “holiday” with Marie, I had regular pupdates of daily activities and puppy play dates. Marie was so thorough from day 1, asked so many questions to get to know Shadow and met prior to accepting my booking to ensure Shadow and her dog, bread, got on. Can’t recommend enough. Thank you Marie and Bread 🤣”

About: Hi! I'm new to Rover, I've always had dogs in my life since I was a child. I love all kind of dogs and have my own now, a 12 years old black labrador called Mango. I am currently working part time, and have lots of spare time to look after your four legged friends and go for walkies in your preferred area. I also know very nice walks that have been all approved by my dog (fields, woods, dog parks, etc). I am happy to cater for your dog's needs, and I will adapt to your preferences. I am looking forward to meet your dogs, and go on adventures with them I am available most weekdays, from 9 to 3, and will always try my best to work around your schedule. I am always happy to discuss your needs and find a way to make it work for everyone. I have a large fenced garden, to share with my friendly senior labrador. We live in a smoke free home, in a quiet residential area

About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life! I grew up in multi-pet household, so am completely comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I recently purchased my own flat and am thrilled to finally be able to welcome pets into my warm and loving home. My work schedule means that I get Tuesday Wednesday off work so that your pet will have around the clock care, company and unlimited cuddles during their stay with me. I work in sales, which gives me two weekdays off to dedicate fully to walks, playtime, and cuddles. My partner Ryan is home on weekends to provide extra love and supervision, ensuring your pet is never lonely. We treat every pet like family and are comfortable with puppies, senior care, managing multiple pets (if from the same household) and following specific routines. We can't wait to welcome your dog (or cat!) into our home! 🐾 The safety and comfort of your pet are our top priorities. Our flat provides a calm and secure home environment with fully hard floors throughout living spaces. Our building features a fenced, communal garden that is completely set back and secured away from any roads where your dog can safely enjoy some fresh air and supervised play. Although we have use of a garden, we both love to walk and are happy to provide as many walks a day as your dog requires to ensure your dog is happy, stimulated, and gets plenty of exercise. We will be fully focused on giving your dog individual attention and enrichment. Ryan and I always supervise playtime, both inside and outside the home. We also strictly follow all feeding, medical, and routine instructions provided by you, ensuring a seamless and worry-free stay.

“Ziggy spent a few nights with Meghan and knowing he was so well taken care of really helped me relax on my holiday. Meghan sent photos, videos and updates on how he was doing in the heatwave. He got on really well with her dog and will definitely be back to visit again. Thoroughly recommend Meghan to anyone anxious about leaving their beloved pet with her. 🥰”

About: Hi, I’m James. My wife Heather and I love animals and having both grown up living with an array of pets, dogs, cats, birds (ducks&chickens, budgies) Lizards and tortoises. All companions are loved and admired. Resultantly, from our vast experiences, with different kinds of companions and personalities, we can recognise behavioural traits and understand what it is your boy(s) or girl(s) want / need. We had our own girl (Ellie, as seen in the pictures) unfortunately illness took her so we no other animals at home. So your furry friends will have our undivided attention. Heather, is home all day and we have access to a garden. We live less than 20ft from the sea so your furry friends will have the beauty of the sea to enjoy on walks as part of their daily routine when staying. We look forward to be able to look after your beloved family members. Heather is free and at home all week and able to provide the daily care your friend deserves. Daily walk, ATTENTION, food and drink. However, I return from work approximately 6pm (Tuesday-Saturday) when we would then go for an evening walk before dinner and bed. We believe it is important to build trust with your furry friend by joining in with them with the activities they love. The atmosphere within our home is very relaxed. We believe that our furry friends need a strong routine and a loving environment to thrive. We have an array of both physical and mental stimulating toys so they’ll never be bored.

“Mandy and her family were fantastic! Really welcoming and accommodating of both our dog and our needs during the meet and greet and drop off/collection. Would highly recommend and will be looking to request Mandy’s services again next time.”

“Always super happy when my boy can go over to Emily. I know he’s in good hands as it now seems to be a home away from home for him. Will always make Emily our 1st choice.”

“I felt that Sangeeta was a calm and responsive person for our dog to board with - she quickly tuned in to Juno and her needs and has a natural, empathic way with dogs. Juno seemed very happy and relaxed after her one-night stay and we had plenty of updates and a video during the boarding period.”

We bring strong communication, loads of patience, and a flexible, positive approach - plus regular photo updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing. Think of us as an extension of your care, not a replacement. When you book me, you also get my partner who is a super fit exercise lover who loves running & all things fitness. If you have a dog that needs more vigorous exercise let me know and I’m sure he would love to take them on a run! He is a teacher & so has weekday availability in half terms & over summer. We are both animal lovers who have always had family pets and are known for taking our family & friends’ pets out for walks and spending time giving them cuddles!

Extras: I have a car for pick-ups/drop-offs Available for overnight stays or early morning/evening visits We are fully flexible and do our best to fit everyone in so always message if you aren’t sure! Your pet’s safety and happiness come first, always. I’ll take the time to get to know your dog’s personality, routines, and quirks to make sure they feel totally comfortable and stress-free. I never rush walks, I only use secure leads, and I’ll stick to any feeding, medication, or care routines you’ve set. Living in Aylesham, we’re lucky to be surrounded by quiet countryside routes - perfect for relaxed walks or more energetic adventures depending on your dog’s vibe. I’m also more than happy to adapt routes to your dog’s comfort levels and preferences.

About: Hi, I'm Ella! I work in Film & TV (Hybrid) so I can be flexible with availability. I have always had dogs in my life, since I was young I was bought up with many in my life and I am a huge dog person. Whether yours loves long walks, playing, exploring new places, or just having a cuddle on the sofa, I'm happy to go at their pace. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, so I'll make sure they're well looked after, get plenty of attention, and have lots of fun while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing they're having a great time. I’m reliable, easy-going, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend! I have a flexible schedule, so I can easily work around your pets routine and give them the time and attention they deserve. Whether that's walks, playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or just keeping them company throughout the day, I'll make sure they're happy, comfortable, and well looked after. Your pets care will always come first with me. I have a large, secure garden, so there's plenty of space for regular toilet breaks, and leg stretches if they fancy it. Inside the house I have baby gates in place to create safe spaces when needed, so your furry friend will always be comfortable and secure while they're with me.

“Zalihe was utterly brilliant in her care of our Norman whilst we were on holiday. She supplied us with great photos, videos and news of what he was up to! Would highly recommend. A 5 star service.”

About: Hiya, I’m Jessica (27) working for the Ministry of Justice as a Psychologist. I’m a reliable, caring, and experienced pet sitter based in Canterbury, Whitstable, and Herne Bay, offering a safe and loving environment for your pets while you’re away. I have a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise or more relaxed cats who enjoy quiet company, I tailor my care to suit each pet’s personality and routine. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have a structured schedule, which allows me to prioritise regular walks, feeding times, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m used to planning my time carefully, so I can ensure pets receive consistent care, attention, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. During the week, I can offer morning and evening walks, as well as drop-in visits or overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. Weekends are more flexible, giving me even more time to spend with pets for longer walks, playtime, and enrichment. I adapt my care depending on whether I’m looking after pets in my home or in the owner’s home, always focusing on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. In a pet owner’s home, I aim to maintain your pet’s normal schedule, including feeding times, walks, play, and any specific routines they’re used to. I make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment, give them plenty of attention and companionship, and keep your home tidy and secure. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where they can settle in comfortably. I ensure they have plenty of exercise, stimulation, and affection, while also respecting their individual needs—whether that’s lots of playtime or a quieter space to relax. In both settings, I pay close attention to each pet’s behaviour, wellbeing, and any specific instructions, including medication, dietary needs, or training preferences. My priority is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for at all times.

About: I am an experienced dog owner who has had dogs for over 25 years including puppies, elderly dogs and even 65kg Pyrenean Mountain dogs! I am also an experienced dog sitter where I am committed to providing a professional service whilst treating your pet to all of the love and attention they deserve. I currently work from home and am also available at the weekends to look after your pet. This means that my schedule can be very flexible to suit the needs of your dog. Whilst you’re dog is with me, it will be the only pet in the household. I live in a very large 2 bedroom flat with walks to the sea less than 5 minutes away!

“Emily Mary looked after Beryl as if she was her own. She was super knowledgable about dogs and we got some lovely update pictures! Beryl came back shattered and very happy. We’ll definitely be rebooking!!”

About: I’ve had a pet dog for a few years, who I primarily cared for. I’ve had experience with caring for pets at dog sitting vaguely, but am looking to spend time walking dogs as I just enjoy caring for them I am currently a university student, so I am really only avaliable on weekends and when I don’t have uni. However, depending on how close you are I can do later walks I have access to many beautiful areas in which I can take your dog. I will give them lots of love, play with them and give them cuddles throughout their walk :)
