Dog Boarding in South Derbyshire

“Nova loved her stay with David and Jo. Plenty of photos and videos shared of her time, which was great especially as this was her first stay. It’s evident the care that they have for your dog which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you again, Nova can’t wait to stay in future.”

“Couldn’t be happier with the care and love that Callie received when staying with Claire! Claire was taken to the garden centre cafe every morning, and had plenty of walks in the countryside. I received lots of pictures and videos which put my mind at ease seeing how relaxed Callie was with Claire. Will definitely use Claire again in the future!”

“Kirsten and her family were fantastic sitters for my Daisy. We were nervous to leave Daisy as this was the first time staying with anyone other than friends or family. However, Kirsten very quickly eased our concerns with her welcoming nature and immediately bonded with Daisy. We received plenty of ‘pupdates’ whilst we were away and knew she was in very good hands. We’d absolutely use Kirsten’s sitting services again!”

“Heather and family gave Marley a lovely ‘mini break’ and I could see he was relaxed and happy when I collected him. They are so friendly and easy to talk to. Heather sent several photos and videos of his stay and reassured me, as Marley can be quite nervous in new situations. He had plenty of entertainment, safe space to roam around in at their home and walks. Thanks so much Heather I will definitely be booking again.”

“Venetia and Chris were amazing, Roche was very well looked after. Even from the meet and greet to picking him up they listened to all his needs and he really enjoyed his stay there for 8 nights. They already knew a lot about dogs but still did research on his breed to cater for him specifically and gave regular updates on him. We cannot recommend them enough, thanks again.”

“As always Pongo has had a wonderful stay, lots of updates and pictures from Laura! Her and her family treat Pongo like a family member which is very reassuring. Thank you for such a good care. Very much appreciated x”

“Having a business function 5 hours from home and needing to find suitable care for our needy French Bulldog was potentially stressful. So glad we found Cathryn and her wonderfully calming approach. She (and her husband) were super accommodating, communicative, helpful, reassuring. Instantly connecting with Merlin when we dropped him off, and sending photos and messages throughout the evening to reassure. When we are in Staffs again and need repeat care, we will be 100% returning to Cathryn. Highly recommended!!”

About: From around the age of 7 I have had the privilege of growing up with dogs. I recently however lost my girl who was my absolute best friend. I have so much love for dogs and since I’m not ready to have my own again just yet I would love to care for yours. I love all dogs but I do have a special spot for lurchers/greyhounds 🫶🏻 I work full time 4 days a week however I am currently only offering pet care on my days off to ensure your dog gets all the attention they need. Once I get to know your pet I am happy to have them on days I may not be home all day. I don’t have any pets. I have a large secure garden and I have the room for a crate of any size if needed although this would need to be provided.

“Thankyou so much for being so brilliant with my french bulldog Dexter( 10 months old )He is such a velcro puppy that I was so so anxious about leaving him but he was very well looked after and came home a happy boy. Sorry again about his need to have someone close by whilst he slept and ate, you accommodated his every need and we can't thank you enough. I hope you catch up on some well earned sleep now he is back home snoring away on the sofa”

About: I’ve cared for pets most of my life — from energetic puppies to senior dogs and independent cats. Friends and family have often trusted me to look after their animals while away, knowing they’ll be in calm, capable hands. I’m comfortable with all sizes and temperaments, including pets with special needs or medication schedules. My focus is always on creating a safe, low-stress environment and giving each animal the attention and routine they’re used to. Whether it’s a long walk, a quiet check-in, or an overnight stay, I approach every visit with reliability, respect, and care. Im currently in the civil service and work set shifts, this means I have days off in the week where I can cater your pet needs. Just contact me for any date enquires. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or staying in yours, I always aim to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. That includes feeding times, walk schedules, play preferences, and any specific instructions you share. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I take the time to understand their personality, needs, and comfort level. In your home, I make sure to leave everything as I found it — clean, organized, and secure. I respect your space and your pet’s space equally. In my home, pets have a calm, safe environment with room to relax and feel at ease. I never leave pets unattended for long periods, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. Clear communication is also key — I send regular updates, photos, or videos so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away.

“So, so massively grateful to Laura, who looked after my little Ella so well, first time leaving her anywhere too so super nervous but Laura and Ben sent pictures and reassured me all the rume. I am definitely booking again.”

“Bethany and her partner were absolutely amazing with our two dogs, Evan and Theo! From the start, communication was excellent, and they went above and beyond with a personalised touch that made us feel completely at ease. They even handled pick-up and drop-off, which was such a help. We got regular updates and photos showing how happy and relaxed the boys were—it was clear they were treated like part of the family. Evan and Theo were so well cared for, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for more. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be booking again!”

“Jade was absolutely amazing with my dog Logan, a very energetic Staffordshire bull terrier! He can be a bit full on when you first meet him, but Jade handled his energy with ease and made him feel right at home. She kept in great contact leading up to his stay and throughout his visit, sending a lovely video and some adorable photos that showed me he was settling in well. Even though it was just 2 days, I could tell Logan was really well looked after. I'll definitely be booking with Jade again- Highly recommended!”

About: I work from home full time which means your dog would get my undivided attention and walked at least twice a day (if needed). Have had my own dog 5 years, have previously fostered and often look after my brothers Vizsla. Walks are usually lunch times and evenings unless it’s too hot in which case they will be early mornings and late evenings. Plenty of different walks to choose from in the local area. Dogs will have free rein of the house, allowed on sofa and beds to ensure feel at home. Garden is secure with a bolted gate.

“Absolutely fantastic. Chester had a wi Sergio time and clearly enjoyed being around Courtney’s dogs. It’s very reassuring to know he was so well cared for and I’ll definitely be booking with Courtney again. He went in sone lovely walks too and the good communication was so reassuring as it was a new experience for Chester. Thank you so much!!!!!”

“Helen looked after our boisterous cocker spaniel pup and he had a wonderful time - she took him on a big walk with her dogs, he played all day, and we got photos at regular intervals. So kind and accommodating, Helen I can't thank you enough!”
