Pet Boarding Stow Bardolph

“Rusty and Heidi had a lovely time with Naomi they were very happy and looked after well, I would have no worries about leaving them with Naomi again.”

“Jasper had a great time with Jodie and James on his first day care. They both were fantastic and gave him time and space to settle in nicely. It’s like „home away from home” experience for furry friends with safe and fun environment. So happy we’ve found someone we can trust and go on holidays with a peace of mind, knowing that our Jasper is well looked after. Thank you Jodie & James, until the next time!”

“My elderly border terrier and nervous dachshund had a lovely time with Alix. Her two friendly dogs made mine very welcome and helped make their stay a lot of fun. The regular updates and photos put my mind at ease. Overall a fantastic service will definitely use again.”

“Sewwandi did such a great job with Bevo. They sent several pictures & videos and she communicated a lot with us providing updates throughout the day. Bevo didn’t have time to miss us between the walks and play time with their sweet little Boston, Poppy. They sent a few updates that let us know they were treating Bevo like she was their own. A week or so after her stay, we bumped into Sewwandi on a walk and Bevo lost her mind she was so excited to see her! I would recommend Sewwandi to anyone looking for a Rover!”

Bailey S.

About: I have had animals all my life. I have a genuine love of taking care of them. I have experience with Dogs, Cats, Guinea Pigs and horses. I currently own two dogs, a cat, Guinea pigs and two ponies. I have worked with animals most of my life. I worked for the animal charity Wood Green Animal Shelter on field section, worked at a dog kennels, cattery and also worked in the hospitality industry. I have a clean driving licence. I have good knowledge of taking care of a variety of animals which has given me the experience and knowledge needed. I love the psychology of animals and understanding their body language. I am a single mum of three daughters. Two go to work and one is disabled and goes to a fantastic school in Alconbury near Huntingdon. So im at home alone a lot. I have been looking for a job that can is flexible and active but also to do something I love and have experience doing. I have a lot of free so this type of work suits me down to the ground. My home has a big garden that is fully fenced all the way round. I have tiled floors indoors which is easy cleaning. My house is open plan but I do have a utility room for a quiet place.

“Julie provided such amazing care for our 6 month old Doberman pup Jax. From the first enquiry she was very responsive, organised and really friendly… she didn’t let his size or energy phase her and he had such a lovely weekend with Julie and her family. It was his first time away and Julie kept us updated each day with texts and photos which was great. When we collected Jax I could see how happy he was and how much not only Julie but her whole family had cared for him. Thank you so much.”

Samantha J.

“We decided on a last minute trip out of the country. Anna worked with us every step of the way and made sure we were always in the know with our girl. She would send daily updates and photos. It was a peace of mind while we were away to know our dog was being loved and cared for by such a lovely family. Will use Anna again for boarding in the future.”

“Cooper had a wonderful stay with Carmen and family. I received lots of lovely photos throughout and felt reassured he was being loved and cared for. Would very happily book for Cooper to stay again 😀”

Stephanie B.

“I was very happy leaving our dog with Shaun and his family. He has posted updates every day and I saw that she was happy there. I will definitely rebook Shaun again when needed.”

Ali K.

“Archie had another lovely stay with Ross, Clara and Cesski. I had lots of photos and communication from them. I picked up a very happy boy. Thank you so much guys 🥰”

Carol H.

“Carla and Jim looked after our dog Mila for us, they are really friendly & professional. They welcomed Mila into their home with their dog Marlow and she couldn’t have settled better. Carla and Jim looked after Mila perfectly, they sent us regular updates and photos of how Mila was getting on, so whilst we were away we knew that Mila was safe and happy. We would highly recommend Carla and Jim, they are caring, kind, thoughtful and really accommodating. We will definitely be using Carla and Jim again as we feel completely happy and safe leaving our dogs with them. Thank you again x”

Natalie H.

“I’m sure if our dog Miro could talk he’d say how much he enjoyed another lovely stay with Linda and Craig. He comes back really relaxed and I’d recommend Linda always as she’s so tuned into the needs of Miro.”

Jennie R.

“Roo absolutely loved his stay and John is clearly a dog lover and excellent dog sitter with excellent communication. John sent lots of pics of Roo enjoying himself. He has a great environment for dogs with an enclosed back garden.”

About: I first became a "dog Mum" 15 years ago to our Westie, Elland, who sadly we lost recently. I sadly was that annoying "Dog Mum" who had pictures of her on my desk and booked holiday for her birthday each year. I took voluntary redundancy nearly 6 years ago so have been fortunate to spend quality time at home with her and take her out and about on our own or with her other doggy friends. Unfortunately she lost her hearing about 3 years ago so learnt quickly how to communicate with her with some basic sign language. She also developed dry eye disease so I had to administer drops 5 times each day. Two of these were determined by time so I had to ensure I was available to give her these on time. The last 5 months of her life, her arthritis worsened so I bought a buggy to help her whilst out for daily walks/sniffs. I have also looked after family dogs whilst they have been on holiday and have accomodated raw feeding for one of family dogs. I live with my husband in a bungalow. He still works but is here in the evenings and at weekends. I work during examination periods at a local college but can accomodate pet sitting around this as dates are known well in advance. My contract with the college is ona casual basis so dog sitting will be my priority. We have used a local dog sitter who stayed in our home when we went on holiday. I therefore understand the importance of providing important information to the pet sitter when leaving the pet. When I first stopped working I volunteered for a local hospice helping support a family who used their services, by walking their dog on a weekly basis to give them some respite and also encourage the dog to socilise. I did this for 12 months. I also volunteered at Wood Green Animal Charity during Covid restrictions. Although I was there to help in the fundraising office, we often had dogs who weren't settling in kennels, come and sit with us in the office for the day. Some were quite withdrawn so I learnt how to slowly gain their trust. I am retired so home all day. My husband works full time but is home in the evenings and at weekends. I do some casual exam invigilating but I know dates for this in advance so will not take on any work if pet sitting is booked. I am happy to be led by the owners on when and what activity their dog (s) are used to so am pretty flexible. I have acess to my own car so can take the dog to any appointments if required. I have a fully fenced in garden (6ft) I live in a village with lots of access to quiet walks in the countryside if required, as well as walks within the village itself. I am happy to book out local secure dog fields if agreed with the owner but this will involve driving to nearby fields. As previously mentioned we live in a bungalow so no stairs. We are based in a quiet cul-de-sac so if your dog is reactive to traffic, should not be a problm here. I have space for a medium size crate if required.

About: I've taken care of dogs since 1984. I take care of my daughters dog during the summer while they have their holidays, usually for 3 months I'm at home during the day, taken early retirement. I play pickleball one day a week and volunteer in the local baby bank one morning a week so I have plenty of free time for walks I have a fenced garden and countryside walks on my doorstep. Will always keep dog on lead while out walking. Cuddles will be readily available. Calm home
