Dog Boarding Davenham

“Elina took wonderful care of our whippet, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was extremely responsive both before the stay and throughout, which gave us real peace of mind. We received plenty of photos and updates, and it was clear he was enjoying every minute. What really stood out was how she treated him like her own—giving him genuine care, attention, and affection. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Elina’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Chelsea looked after our Labrador for 2 weeks while we were away on holiday. She kept us informed on Wilma's wellbeing throughout the stay, sending us regular updates with photos which helped to keep our minds at ease. Wilma appeared happy and healthy when we collected her and Chelsea had even given her a bath ready for our return.”

“Nicola was very nice and I was sent some videos and pictures during the stay to keep me updated. I would recommend her and will be using her again to mind Sam in the future.”

Philip H.

“Colin had a great time. It was the first visit to a new minder and Annchalee and Will were lovely. We received picture updates with messages to let us know how Colin was and we could not have asked for a better experience for him. Thank you both.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, and I always feel a real sense of comfort and joy when I'm around them. My love for dogs started when I spent lots of time with my grandad's lovely dog, Dooley. I’ve always considered myself a “dog person” because I enjoy building trust and forming bonds with them. Additionally, I completed a Level 2 Animal Care qualification, which deepened my knowledge of animal welfare, safe handling, and everyday care routines. I also had the wonderful opportunity to work in a cattery for a month, gaining practical experience caring for cats—feeding, cleaning, monitoring their wellbeing, and making sure they felt comfortable and relaxed. Plus, I share my life with my adorable Jackie Bichon, Annie, which has given me firsthand insight into the responsibilities, routines, and attention that pets need daily. Pet care fits nicely into my routine because I’m used to being organised and planning my time. I usually attend college on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, but on other days I’m flexible and happy to help with pet care. On college days, I can do evening check-ins depending on what’s needed, and I always make sure I only accept bookings I can reliably handle. I have experience working in a cattery, so I’m familiar with routines such as feeding, cleaning, and regularly checking on the animals. I naturally carry those habits into how I manage my time now. On my days off, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, or longer stays, and I always ensure pets receive proper attention and care without feeling rushed. Overall, I plan my schedule to ensure pets are well cared for, and their routines stay as normal as possible. When caring for pets, I always make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and kept to their normal routine as much as possible. At my home, I have a fully fenced garden, which helps ensure dogs can safely spend time outside. I make sure pets are always supervised and never left unattended, and I keep everything calm and secure so they can relax and settle in properly. I also make sure pets are fed good-quality food and follow their usual feeding routine exactly as provided by the owner. I take walks and outdoor time seriously, and the goal is always to get the dogs out a couple of times a day, depending on their needs, energy levels, and usual routine. When I’m in someone else’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully. I stick closely to feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific care needs so the pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. In both cases, I focus on keeping things calm, simple, and familiar for the pet so they feel safe and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: I've spent years caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes and temperaments, from my family Cavachon to regularly looking after two Chow Chows and a Husky for friends. I occasionally work at a puppy yoga class in Manchester, where the puppies' wellbeing is the top priority. I particularly enjoy building confidence in nervous puppies and helping them feel safe and comfortable in new environments. Whether your dog is calm, energetic, shy or full of personality, I'll provide patient, reliable care tailored to their needs. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays (finishing at 12pm on Fridays), which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also work from home on some Tuesdays, and occasionally I have full weeks working from home, giving me even more availability. On the days I work in the office, I'm home by around 4pm, so I'm available for evening care and walks. I'm also free most weekends, making it easy to accommodate weekend bookings and provide dedicated care for your pets. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. In your home, I'll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medication (if required), and any house rules your pet is familiar with. I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, while also respecting their individual temperament—whether they love lots of interaction or prefer a quieter approach. If caring for pets in my own home, they'll have a clean, safe, and relaxed environment where they can feel comfortable. I have a decent-sized garden, and I live directly opposite a field with plenty of lovely walking routes nearby, so dogs can enjoy regular exercise. They'll always have fresh water, regular toilet breaks, lots of attention, and plenty of love and supervision.

“Charlotte looked after Dolly really well - especially with the extreme heat during her stay. Charlotte sends updates and photos & Dolly seemed really chilled. Highly recommend. Thanks again.”

“Pj stayed with Emma for 5 days whilst we were on holiday he settled in well from the first day, Emma sent pictures and videos of pj’s stay which was nice to see as we missed him very much i would definitely be using her again as pj loved his stay Thank you again :)”

“Jess and Ben have been wonderful. They are fantastic with dogs and immediately put us at ease. Bonny, our Tibetan Terrier, is usually quite reserved around strangers, but Jess and Ben had no trouble winning her over. They kept us updated throughout the day without us having to ask, which was greatly appreciated and gave us real peace of mind. By the time we arrived to collect her, it was obvious she felt completely at home and comfortable in their care. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them and would happily leave Bonny in their care again.”

“Andrew & Pia were absolutely fantastic with Wilf. This was our first time leaving him alone with someone outside the family. Regular updates throughout the week put our minds at rest. He’s come home such a happy dog so Wilf will most definitely be returning for more adventures.”

“Honey loved her first stay with Ellie and Alex, she was very happy and comfortable. Great communication, sending photos and updates throughout the stay. Thank you so much. Will be in touch for more bookings in the future.”

About: I’ve had horses and dogs from being 2 years old , so animals are my life , I grew up with them so I know exactly how to tend to different needs of the animal and their health and happiness is always my best interest I am currently on maternity leave with my son, I am available 7 days per week for walking, drop ins etc. i will be returning to work in October however I work from home x5 days per week and have a lot of flexibility in my role to cater to your animals needs I treat every animal how we treat our own. With love , care and plenty of cuddles and treats! No animal is “too much” and their care and happiness is my utmost priority.

About: I’ve raised two dogs from puppyhood, so I understand every stage of their development - from house training and boundless puppy energy to the gentler care seniors need. Our family dog is now 13, so I’m experienced with managing age-related conditions (such as heart issues and arthritis) and adjusting activities to each dog’s pace. Whether your dog needs a calm companion at home or a brisk lunchtime walk to burn off energy, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need, with lots of love along the way. I work full time from home, so am available as a companion for your dog through the day. I can take them on walks at lunch and/or after work, and can make sure they have frequent access to outside if required. At the weekend, we can extend walk times to suit your dog’s fitness. We are expecting a baby in January 2026, so our availability is reduced from then while we settle in as a family. We have a fenced garden, and many cosy dog beds dotted about the house. We have a stair gate to fence off upstairs if you’re worried about access to stairs, and our downstairs has LVT flooring which is not too slippy (geriatric dog approved!) so they shouldn’t have any difficulty scamping around. We also have a 13-year-old male Pugalier, who loves the company of other dogs. He will be happy to settle down next to them for a snooze, or watch avidly while your dog plays with toys.

“Fleur was brilliant. Kept in contact with us whilst we were abroad and Ramsey stayed for a week. He had a great time and it was clearly a home from home for him. Will definitely use Fleur for dog sitting again!”

“First time using Vicky's help and I couldn't be happier. I was informed and updated regularly. Vicky is very experienced with dogs and clearly very popular with many repeated bookings. She was perfecly able to take care of my huge German Shepherd - Logan absolutely loves her. I can highly recommend Vicky as a sitter <3”

“Pauline was very accommodating. From the initial query, meet and greet and eventually stay. Daisy was well looked after and got plenty of exercise and attention and you can just tell Pauline loves dogs. Receiving updates throughout her stay was also a very nice touch.”

Rory L.

“Our dog was very happy with Chad - she went for walks and played, and was kept cool in the heat. She went in and left with a wagging tail. Thanks so much.”

About: I've lived with dogs my whole life, often checking in others for family and friends. I understand dogs don't always play by the rules so I'm not shy to clean up the odd accident or take a less than ruly dog for a walk! I keep my prices low and try to reassure you that your return to home will be 'mess free' with a happy dog to boot! Happy to drop in or have your little guy stay over with me, message/pic updates daily should you wish :) I'm self employed and out of my home 4 hours daily. However, I work locally and always check in at home to see on my own dog (a very friendly border collie!). If your dog does not get on with others, my dog will happily visit/get spoilt by the grandparents until I return for the day! I have a fenced back yard and live near a large field and the Whitegate Way walk which my own dog uses regularly. My own dog is free to roam the house though I'd be happy to follow your lead on this matter. I have no judgements either way to crate use so feel free to state your wishes.
