Little Pet Boarding

We have recently been away and given the heatwaves it was great to have the peace of mind that our 2 bunnies are in a shady place with the highly experienced lovely Mel keeping an eye on them. The enclosures are clean and full of things to entertain and stimulate them and I think they really enjoy their holiday away from home!

Mel took great care of our bunnies while we were away, it is so brilliant to have someone local to rely on and trust.

Mel and her family at little pet boarding are simply the best. GInger and Biscoff our guinea pigs are so well cared for and loved, home from home for them and they are spoiled and loved like there own pets ❤️. Always recommend mel to anyone when they ask, it's a great environment and lot's of enrichment and fresh food the animals get treated like royalty

Mel is amazing, very experienced and knowledgeable on rabbits, she has always gone out of her way to make sure our bunny is very pampered when he stays with her. She was also incredibly kind during an emergency when he needed to go to the vets. She's the only boarder I trust with our baby.

We love Little Pets Boarding for our guineas. We know that they are in safe hands and have their own little holiday whilst we are able to enjoy ours not having to worry about them. Definitely recommend Mel at Little Pets Boarding.

I have been using Mel to look after my rabbits for many years. She is very knowledgeable and always notices if anything is amiss (they get gut problems occasionally) and gets it sorted without any fuss. I always check her availability before booking any holiday as I know they will be very well cared for.

First time sending our bunnies anywhere and wouldnt use anywhere else after sending them to mel. 5star boarding and 2 happy bunnies

From Jodie on 28/07/2026

Mel has been caring for my rabbit Marshy and guinea pig puck for years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. She genuinely cares about the animals in her care and treats them like her own. I completely recommend her. Thank you Mel x

We've been bringing our rabbit to Mel for nearly three years, and we've never considered going to anyone else since. The accommodation is spacious and fun to explore, and Mel is always very welcoming and attentive to what our bunny needs on each visit. Easy recommendation!

From Stef Lenza on 27/07/2026

Highly recommanded. Mel is the best to look after Pper our cheeky, temperamental bunny! The place is really good in and out. Pepper have good holidays when he goes and we are serene to leave him.

Mel has been looking after my cat Roscoe for over a year now. She is absolutely brilliant, keeping me updated with photos and videos while I'm away, so I know he's fine, and he clearly adores her. I'm so happy with this service 🙂

From Helen Wright on 27/07/2026

Thank goodness we found Little Pet Boarding. Mel cared for and looked after our dear Tilly. It must be nine years. Never let us down. Found the time to let and play with her and when she got very old, took great care of her. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to look after your special little pets.

From Jan Crayman-Smith on 27/07/2026

We have used Mel for our budgie for a couple of years now and she is the best! Always feel safe leaving him with her knowing he's in the best hands.

From Jayne on 27/07/2026

I have used Mel to board my animals for years, both guinea pigs and hamsters. I always know they will be well cared for in my absence- a little holiday of their own!

From Samm on 27/07/2026

Mel has been looking after our cats at home since we moved here in 2020, first three but now just our 2 remaining boys. They're both nervous of new people but warmed to her quickly so we knew we'd made the right choice. We get regular updates when we're away, including video calls when one of the cats went on hungry strike because he missed us! Nothing is too much for Mel, and she's now helping us settle.in as new guinea pig parents. I recommend her to everyone.

From Helen on 26/07/2026

Mel's been looking after our bunny when we go away for the last 4 years. I feel happy going away knowing he's in her care, she has lots of knowledge about rabbits and our bunny has had Gi Stasis before and I know if it happened in her care she would spot the signs and get him sorted, whereas if I let a family member look after him they more than likely would not spot it, as rabbits can hide it very well if you're not familiar with the symptoms. Mel and her family treat him like their own, I always work my holidays around Mel as I'd not be happy with him going anywhere else.

From Lynsey Barrett on 26/07/2026

Mel and her lovely family have looked after Gizmo and Pretzel whenever we go away. I know they are loved and cared for like her own and love helping keep her grass short. The special treats of herbs and veg from her allotment is a bonus.

From Claire Phillips on 26/07/2026

Mel and her family treated our 2 guinea pigs like their own while we were on holiday, ensuring they were well fed and cared for. I'm sure they're more content than when we left them!
