Pet Boarding Ellington

“We couldn't be more happier we came across Eleni to take care of our fur baby Roly. We had to find care last minute due to being let down by a previous dog boarder. Eleni was able to accommodate care at her house, which was better for us too, for the full 10 days and nothing was an issue. We were kept updated on Roly throughout our holiday, he had plenty of walks, meal times/amount were kept the same as that at home (which helps the routine when we got him back) and he had plenty of cuddles and attention. Eleni is an experienced dog carer and it really showed which helped ease our minds when dropping him off, leaving him and collecting him. Roly was content and happy which was visible in the photos and videos Eleni sent. I will 100% use Eleni again for future care, thank you so much for taking care of Roly, we are grateful for everything. ❤️”

About: I grew up with a golden labrador who was the absolute centre of our family (miss her heaps), she lived until she was 13 and had some complex medical issues so I am also comfortable with older dogs and administering medication. I have experience looking after friends’ dogs (of all ages) too, so I am really confident I can give your pet the attention they need. I work from home 3 days a week, your dog will have full range of our open plan kitchen diner and reasonable garden so regular toilet breaks are never an issue. I can offer an hours walk on my lunch break too. In the week I would struggle with super super active dogs that need constant stimulation just because of work, (this is fine on the weekend!) so more looking for a dog that can settle and curl up on my office chair kind of pup whilst I work in the week days. I work from home 3 days a week, your dog will have full range of my open plan kitchen diner (and reasonable size garden) - regular toilet breaks are never an issue. I can offer up to an hours walk on my lunch break too (longer on weekends!) In the week I would struggle with super super active dogs that need constant stimulation just because of work, (this is fine on the weekend!) so more looking for a curl up on my office chair/lower maintenance whilst I work in the week days. I am an active person that love walkings, love going to the beach so confident I can give your dog the exercise they need! Equally if it’s just a case of playing in the garden for a short time I would love to have them. I have a fenced decent sized garden and no current dogs of my own so all the attention would be on your dog! Your dog would sleep downstairs in the open kitchen/ living room. Super happy for you to come and have a look at the space. I will tailor to your dogs individual schedule and exercise/ meal times - really flexible :)

“Our dog had a fantastic time with William. We weren’t sure that he’d want to come home! William clearly loves dogs very much. He was very in tune with our dogs needs. Our dog has a medical condition and William checked through all the info to make sure that he understood what was needed. Great communication and lots of photos during our dogs stay as well as taking him on amazing beach walks.”

“We’ve just collected our dog from a weeks stay with Tracey and Stu. Can’t thank them both enough for putting our minds at rest, enabling us to enjoy a week abroad. We received regular update's, with photos and videos of her and she was very happy with them being spoilt. Nothing was a problem for them both with Betsy still being young and has a lot of energy. We will definitely be using them again. Thank you both again.”

“Absolutely fantastic care by Ann ans Simon. They took great care, and really thought about what would make her happy on her stay. Winnie was a little sad to leave when it was time to say goodbye. I couldn’t recommend Ann enough!”

About: I am a mummy of two little girls 5 & 7 years old 🥰. We all love fur babies and would like to welcome your friendly dogs and give them so much love and care. Your lovely dog will be well entertained and looked after in our house 🥰 I have many years of experience with dogs as I’ve had dogs myself and looked after many friends and family’s fur babies! You can be rest assured— your dog will be in very capable hands with enough love to come back home to you stocked up!🤪🥰 Just to add— I do have a fish tank so please let me know if your pet will have problems with my ocean babies 😁 Also I have a lovely little garden in which your pet can play

“Lauren was absolutely amazing with Wilf, it is the first time we have left him with him only being 4 months old but he could not of been in better hands. She sent us regular updates and he had an absolute blast. Lauren is just the loveliest person and we have already booked her again for when we go on holiday, I can not recommend her enough ❤️”

“Larissa was an absolute lifesaver! We needed someone to look after our dog, Bailey, on extremely short notice, and she stepped up without missing a beat. From the moment we dropped Bailey off, Larissa put all our last-minute worries completely to rest. She kept us updated with lovely photo updates and treated Bailey just like one of her own. He came home relaxed, thoroughly spoilt, and as happy as could be! We are so grateful for how warm, accommodating, and flexible Larissa was with such a late booking. I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

About: Been around dogs most of my life:) Cared for a range including Golden retrievers, Cavapoos, Huskies, Malamutes, Border Collies, Daschunds, Pugs & Frenchies. I’ve moved over from Jersey and miss having doggy company! Love the chance to care for and spoil some pups again! I can work from home and my hours are flexible to work around the pups needs when doing so! Plus I already require daily walks myself 😆 I’m afraid I can’t commit to open ended repeat walks/visits as availability fluctuates so requests would require an end date. Also for bookings much further away I may need to add a couple quid to the rate just to cover my travel (as Rover takes a fair bit!) but that can be discussed on a case by case basis :) I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or staying at your home, I’ll stick to their usual routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they’re well cared for. On walks, I keep things safe and go at their pace. My goal is to make sure your pet feels relaxed and loved until you’re back, tailoring to their individual needs! For stays in my own home, I should note that I have a housemate so it wouldn’t just be me around the dog.

“Doris and her family looked after Millie really well with at least two walks a day, and playing ball with Millie in their garden. Doris gave us daily updates including photos which gave us a good picture of Millie’s day and the reassurance that she was being well cared for. I wound certainly recommend her very highly.”

“Andy was a lucky last minute booking - and I am so pleased that we found him. You can tell he loves dogs, is incredibly experienced and most importantly, he cares deeply. Luna had a lovely weekend with Andy and family, I can’t recommend him enough, and we will certainly be back! Absolute first class pet care.”

About: I have cared for dogs since I was 11 years old and currently have a two-and-a-half-year-old Cockapoo in the UK. Alongside caring for my own dog, I have experience looking after both small and large breeds, as well as raising cats and rabbits in my home country. Dogs staying with me will enjoy daily visits to the nearby park, with at least two 30-minute walks or play sessions each day. With the owner’s permission and where it is safe, they can also enjoy off-lead play. I am patient, attentive and always take the time to understand each dog’s individual personality and routine, treating every pet as part of my own family. I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, loved and at home while their family is away. I am a PhD student with a flexible schedule, and my partner is at home full-time, so dogs staying with us will have plenty of company, attention and supervision throughout the day. Our usual routine includes three outdoor trips at around 9 am, 3 pm and 8 pm, with walks, playtime, sniffing and games of fetch in the large park just two minutes from our home. Between walks, dogs are free to relax, play and spend time with us at home. We also do our best to follow each dog’s usual feeding, walking and sleeping routine, so they can settle in quickly and feel comfortable and at home. We live in a spacious two-storey house with plenty of room for dogs to relax, play and move around comfortably. A large park is only a one-minute walk from our home, making regular exercise and outdoor time easy. Dogs are not routinely kept in crates, although we can follow their usual crate routine if requested. All guest dogs are welcome on the sofa, and dogs under 30 kg may sleep on the bed with the owner’s permission. We carefully follow all care instructions and make sure every dog is well supervised throughout their stay. I also keep detailed records of your dog’s daily routine and wellbeing, including their meals, walks, toilet habits, mood, behaviour and any other important changes, so you can easily keep track of how they are doing. Regular photo and video updates are provided throughout the stay, together with detailed status updates, so you’ll always know your dog is safe, happy and having fun. Photos are shared in a way that allows owners to easily view and save them as lovely memories of their dog’s stay.

About: I’ve taking care of dogs pretty much my whole life, I currently have my own pug who is 9 years old, she only has 3 legs, so I’m used to taking care of dogs with additional needs, I work from home too, so I’m available to look after any dogs round the clock xx I currently work from home so have plenty free time to take care of a dogs needs, I have a dog of my own so usually we go for walks 2-3 times a day xx All dogs will have free range of my house, more then happy to have them sleep on my bed, my home is also adapted for disabled pets too xx

“Debs and Craig were fantastic with our old and rather particular nervous rescue dog. They sent several photos and kept in touch. They answered our request straight away with little notice and saved us in a tricky situation. We could see from the photos that he was uncharacteristically relaxed. We would not hesitate to recommend them for dog sitting.”

“Blu has had the most amazing long weekend with Georgia and her family! He was treat as one of her own pets and given so much love throughout his stay! I was kept updated all weekend with photos and videos and it was clear to see how much Blu was well cared for. I would recommend Georgia 10/10, it felt like he went from home to home and Blu cannot wait for his next stay :) thank you so so much! Xxx”

“Beth took great care of Zeke overnight, sending lots of pictures and responding quickly to my messages. Zeke came home happy, so I highly recommend Beth and will use her again. She was attentive to Zeke's needs and made sure he was well-fed and comfortable. Thankyou very much for taking care of my not to little puppy :)”
