Pet Boarding St. Austell

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, and for the past 11 years my family and I cared for our own much‑loved Cavachon, who we sadly lost a couple of months ago. We raised her from a puppy, so I’m very familiar with early training, building routines, socialisation, and helping a young dog grow into a confident, well‑behaved companion. As she got older, we also managed her medication and adapted her routine to keep her comfortable, so I’m confident handling day‑to‑day care that needs consistency and a bit of extra attention. Over the years we’ve also looked after dogs belonging to family, friends, colleagues and neighbours. From Springer Spaniels and Dalmatians to Labradors, Cockapoos and Terriers. We have a large enclosed garden and a spacious open‑plan home where dogs can play, roam or rest depending on what they enjoy. My husband and our two children (aged 6 and 9) adore dogs. We love heading out for beach walks, woodland adventures and coastal paths together. The children are gentle, respectful and understand when dogs need quiet time and space. We aim to create a relaxed, predictable environment where dogs feel safe, settled and part of the family. Please get in touch if we can help, and feel free to share as much information as possible about feeding routines, temperament and anything else that helps us make their stay perfect. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine. I’m currently at home during the day, and over the school holidays I’m with my children, so there’s always company and plenty of attention for visiting dogs. My husband also works from home a lot, which means dogs are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. We’re used to planning our days around dog‑friendly activities, beach walks, coastal paths, and relaxed weekend outings, so it’s easy for us to build a dog’s routine into our own. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or just having someone around, we’re a family who genuinely enjoys making dogs feel part of our day. We have a large, fully fenced garden where they can explore and play securely, and our home is set up so dogs can be part of family life without feeling overwhelmed. Our children (aged 6 and 9) have grown up around dogs and are gentle, confident, and respectful, they love to play, but they also understand when a dog needs space or quiet time. We live close to woods, coastal paths, and dog‑friendly beaches, so walks are varied and enriching.

About: With years of loving experience, I provide tailored, compassionate care for every pet. From energetic dog walks to cozy cuddles, my dedication and attention to detail ensure your furry friends happiness and your peace of mind. I work part time so have plenty of time to attend to your 4 legged friends, from dusk-dawn I will happily be there to help. I live by acres and acres of land to take your pups and pooches for long walks but can also break trails down for smaller walks if needed.I have a large comfortable home where many cuddles can be given.

About: Hi, I'm Leo and I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I like to get out and about so I'm always walking my dog Bruce, he comes with me everywhere I go! I have experience caring for senior pets also and have a qualification in canine first aid. I understand that all dogs are different and need different breed specific stimulation to be happy and healthy and I will always try to weave some training in with all the playtime and walks! I'm currently available full-time with availability Mon-Fri and Saturday if required. I am able to be flexible to suit your requirements and meet the needs of your pet. I live in close proximity to woodland, open fields and enclosed paddocks. I also have access to an unfenced garden in my home. I have a 18 month old Sprocker Spaniel and an elderly cat at home to keep your best friend company.

About: My name is Rose and I run this account with my Boyfriend Jago :) We are both Marine biology students, and miss our dogs at home! I've spent the last 9 years looking after and training my own black Schnoodle at home, as well as caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes for friends and family. We are both confident with feeding, walks, toilet breaks, playtime, and making sure every dog feels happy, comfortable, and well looked after. My boyfriend and I both work part time, meaning someone is always around to ensure your furry friend is never alone! We are both very active (meaning lots of W.A.L.Ks) and are always spending time outdoors, adventuring to new spots when we can. My garden is fenced, meaning lots of space for sniffing outdoors and having fun. Also living in a safe neighbourhood, evening walks are no problem!

“I had plenty of videos and pictures of Otto to let me know he was ok and on a variety of walks . Alex kept me updated throughout and even dropped Otto back home as he was in the area .”

“Clarrissa was the best dog sitter you could ask for! She made time to meet boe before we went away! She took her on 6km run! And she was amazing with boe’s behaviours, boe can be reactive to other dogs and Clarissa was amazing at adapting to this making sure boe kept safe at all times! She kept us updated all the time through photos and messages! YOU COULD NOT ASK FOR A BETTER DOG SITTER 1000% WOULD RECOMMEND!!”

About: We've always had rescue dogs, a bit on the nervous side but always super lovely, I've moved here for uni and would love to help out with dog walking or sitting. I've volunteered at dog rescue shelter and I've been helping people look after their dogs back in my home town of Falmouth ! Right now I'm studying at UvA with a flexible schedule to dog sit around! I also love cats and fostered a lovely cat last year, now I spend lots of time dog sitting my managers dog and helping my mum train her new foster dog! Now I'm not at University, I have a lot more free time and my only other commitment is part time working but I pick the hours so I can work around sitting/walking! I'm more than happy to do whatever the owner feels is best and safest for their pet as of course each dog is different and their needs will always vary, so whatever makes them feel most comfortable!

“Thoroughly recommended, Benson had a great time with Kristina. Benson loved walking & playing with Riley, he came back tired but very happy.”

“Jen and Joe were amazing. It was our first time leaving our 1 yr old labradoodle and they made us feel really calm and happy to leave our dog with them whilst we attended a wedding. They were super friendly, understanding of our dog’s needs and our anxiety of leaving her for the first time. We got great photos and were able to completely enjoy the wedding without worrying. Thank you we will book again if we come back down to Cornwall Ems and Paul xx”

“Rhiannon did a wonderful job looking after Milo for the weekend. She was very communicative and flexible with drop off times when I got caught up with work, and he had a great weekend! He returned happy and relaxed, having bonded with her cat, too. Thank you so much for looking after him!”

Reade L.

“Great experience, first time leaving my almost 2 year old dog, for 12ish days but went as well as I could have hoped for! Was sent updates and pics and when I picked him up he seemed settled. Thank you he will definitely be back next time I need somewhere for him!”

“Absolutely amazing dog sitters! Marek and his partner were amazing with my dog Benji. Had constant updates and they took him out and he had so much fun. Couldn’t reccomend these guys more, I will definitely be giving them a message the next time we’re visiting!!😊”

“This is the 3rd time Sophie has looked after our fur baby and I could honestly never go elsewhere now. The love she gives our girl when she’s in her care is impeccable, she really does love her like her own. I really cannot recommend Sophie enough for everything she does and the care she provides”

About: I've grown up around dogs, so having muddy paws around the house feels pretty normal to me. My grandad was a well respected vet, which meant I was lucky enough to meet dogs of all breeds, ages and personalities, including plenty of rescue dogs! I have just moved out of my parents house which has meant I no longer have my two beloved border terriers to keep me on my toes! I work from home full time so your dog won’t be left counting down the hours until you’re back. They’ll have plenty of company, lunch time walks and lots of cuddles of course! I work from home full time, so I’m lucky to have plenty of time during the day to look after your furry friend and keep them company! My partner also has a flexible job, which means we would happily adapt to their routine and make sure they are well looked after. I’m active and love spending time outdoors, so getting out for walks is something I really enjoy! Whether they’re up for a longer walk or just a good explore of the local area, I’d love to have them join me and become part of my day. We have a fenced garden with lots of room for your dog to run around and enjoy some outdoor time! There are plenty of walking spaces nearby, including a forest 5 minutes walk away, so there are lots of options for longer walks and shorter strolls. We’re not a strict household, if your dog is allowed on the sofa at home, they’ll be more than welcome to relax on ours too! We’ll always try to keep them to their usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable while they’re with us.
