About our Small Pet Boarding

We board: Rabbits

My name is Ruth and I've been keeping pet rabbits for over 20 years, since I nursed a baby wild rabbit through myxomatosis and she lived with me in my house. I've worked with three rabbit rescues for ten years fostering and bonding, and have been boarding holiday rabbits for 6 years. It's a small business run by a rabbit lover for rabbit lovers. I'm studying for my NVQ level 3 in small animal welfare.

Accommodation:

Outdoors:
5 bespoke rabbit houses with attached 12 foot runs. The houses can easily accommodate groups of bunnies. Fully insulated, with plenty of headroom. In winter the floors are insulated with an additional layer of cosy vet bedding and a heat pad, in summer cool pads are provided.
The safe garden is protected by a 12-14 foot stone wall.
Indoors:
Exclusive use of a dedicated room that can be set up in different configurations depending on how many of your bunnies are being boarded/bonded.

Exercise:

Outdoor rabbits have access to a run attached to their house so can come in and out all day. There are tunnels and logs to play on.
Indoor rabbits have access to a separate grassy area for exercise in the day. They also have tunnels and Ikea beds to play on in their runs.
All outdoor rabbits can be shut in their houses overnight.

Health & Hygiene:

Rabbit areas are cleaned and toilet trays changed daily. Living areas are deep cleaned once a week and between guests.
Rabbits who need special diets and medication are catered for including injections and nebulizing.
Vaccination certificates required.

If you would like a pamper day for your bunny whilst they come and stay just let me know, and I can make sure they are groomed and have their nails trimmed.

Ruth is lovely and fabulous at her job, we asked for her help in bonding our 5 rabbits ( 2 bonded pairs and a single) They are now home and we are carrying on the bonding that she started. Ruth is on hand if you need help and advice. Would highly recommend her. In fact, we drove two hours to get to her because she's that great.

I'm kinda reluctant to recommend Ruth and The Bunny Bus as I want to keep her my great little secret! Ruth is a wealth of knowledge and support with anything bunny related. She has looked after various sets of bunnies for us over the years. She is flexible and well priced. She takes note of their likes and dislikes and will keep us updated with messages and little videos. She has also helped us to bond bunnies. The most recent two boys with a girl bun. She is very experienced and I trust her completely. Ruth kept us updated and gave us a detailed explanation of how it all went with advice in how to ensure the bonding continues well. Your bunnies are in good hands when they stay at the The Bunny Bus!

5 From Rebecca on

We found Ruth when looking for indoor rabbit hotels as the cold spell was coming up and we needed to go away for work, we took both our rabbits to her and she was wonderful to them! We shared exactly how we look after them, habits, food preferences, even the temperature we prefer for the room that they will be in, very much like superstars! This makes us realise how well Ruth understands rabbit needs, and we received daily updates with pictures which was really great so we didn't worry about them whilst being away. She was very kind to help us groom them too as we sometimes struggle to brush our angora, so we are very grateful! We will definitely be back :)

5 From Paige on

I contacted Ruth after I got a third bunny. I had two previously bonded bunnies and the girl didn't seem keen on the new boy. Unsure what to do I asked my local vet to help with the bonding. Unfortunately they could not get them to bond funny. My girl was stull being a bully and just was not keen. Ruth came to my home for the day and started the bonding process for me in my own home. This was brilliant as they would eventually be all together here. She talked everything through with me and literally sat and watched them all day. They were still a long way off, but I continued with the 24/7 Ruth had recommended to me. I slept on the sofa next to the enclosure for days. After 4 days they were finally getting to trust one another. On day 5 I put them all together in their new home. They are now best friends and very happy bunnies thanks to Ruth. She's a very professional and friendly lady. It was a pleasure to have her in my home.

5 From Donna Albright on

Ruth bonded our two adorable rescue bunnies Willow and Bertie. She was absolutely amazing and always gave us regular updates, videos and photos about how they were doing during their stay. She put my very anxious mind at ease straight away and left me with the upmost confidence that they would be very well looked after. They are now home together and are doing brilliantly. Ruth is an absolute star and I would recommend her to anyone who needs a bonder for their bunnies.

5 From Clare Pulley on

Our rabbit Minnie loved staying with Ruth! We were so happy with Ruth's service. She really took time to find out what Minnie liked and also sent photos when we were away! We will definitely be back to Ruth next time we go away!

5 From Nuala on

Ruth is very knowledgeable about rabbits - answering all of my questions and providing extra information when enquiring about boarding. Ruth took time to show me around and gathered plenty of details when we dropped them off to stay which put me at ease that my rabbits would be well looked after, especially given their age and medical issues. The indoor set up and care given is brilliant. Medications, grooming and regular updates weren't a problem. My rabbits have stayed with Ruth twice this year and I wouldn't hesitate taking my rabbits to stay at The Bunny Bus again.

5 From Laura on

I left my Kiki-Bluebell for almost 20 days and Ruth did a marvellous job with taking care of her. Ruth is so dedicated and passionate about rabbits, knowledgeable and caring and I would certainly recommend her, if you need to leave your pet. Very kindly Ruth also sent me photos and videos of Kiki-Bluebell while we were on holiday and she kept in constant contact so that we knew everything was fine. Furthermore, Ruth is always ready to reply your messages almost immediately. Very kind and reliable lady, I will certainly keep her in mind for next time.

5 From Marinella Afshin on

My Moses the giant continental rabbit has spent 17 days with Ruth I really think he was sad to leave after being with all the other rabbits and Ruth new dog. While I was away Ruth sent me pictures of Moses enjoying himself she went out of her way to give him the best care. I would definitely take him back again.

5 From Pam Clarke on

After we lost Pumpkin's sister and best friend. We were introduced to Ruth to bond him with a beautiful rescue bunny. Ruth put me at ease straight away and explained what to expect at every stage. Once I dropped him off I could not have been happier. I was kept informed with videos of their progress, which was very comforting. I now have them home and they and I could not be happier. I would highly recommend Ruth's bonding service.

5 From Lucy on

So pleased I found Ruth. She looked after my two boys for 2 weeks. They spent a couple of days indoors bonding and were then moved outside for the rest of their stay. Ruth clearly loves animals and that's all you can ask for when looking for someone to look after your pets. Will 100% be booking back in with Ruth again.

5 From Charmaine on

So pleased with the bonding service we received. We knew they were in safe hands, with a dedicated space and clearly a love for bunnies. Would recommend to anyone looking for bonding services or boarding.

5 From Monique on

Highly recommended. Ruth has lots of bunny love and experience. Bo bunny has just spent 10 happy days with Ruth, she has been well looked after and accommodated Bo's elderly needs.

5 From Lynne Hack on

Could not recommend more- Ruth has rebonded my 3 bunnies for the 2nd time after unfortunately their bond broke when one became ill! I live in the southeast and have yet to find a local rabbit boarding/bonding facility I trust to look after my babies- but Ruth's care and skills with bunnies makes it well worth the travel !!

5 From Kiera on

I have managed to find this beautiful well kept place in frome to look after my little bunnies . They are well looked after and always clean and tidy . Ruth knows her business with rabbits and am very happy to leave them in her capable hands , highly recommend her

5 From Paula cuthbert on

Ruth was amazing! Having tried and failed to bond our rabbits a few times, Ruth took them on and made them become best friends! Without Ruth's help, we would have to keep them separate but now they are obviously happier together. Thanks so much Ruth!

5 From Matt & Abi on

Ruth successfully bonded my pair into a trio and I couldn't be more grateful. I was so anxious about the bonding process and about being away from my buns for the first time. Ruth is a lovely person and after meeting her it was clear she had the knowledge and passion, and I knew they were in good hands. Ruth takes the time to reassure you and the great advice and support didn't stop after returning home with my buns. I really appreciated the phone calls I had with Ruth before and after the initial bonding stage, particularly when I needed advice after returning home with them. I admire the work Ruth does for bunnies and rescues. My 3 happy bunnies are now free-roaming together and have the loveliest bond. Thank you Ruth for your hard work!!!

5 From Megan on

I was worried about leaving our boy with a stranger but as soon as we arrived and saw where he would be housed I felt at ease, he was in very capable hands and he got a little vacation too, he had a lovely time, highly recommend The Bunny Bus.

5 From Kelly Francis on

Roo was amazing with our rabbit George, she loved him like her own. It was so nice to know he was in safe hands while we were on the other side of the world! I would recommend her bunny boarding to anyone considering where to go. Such good value for money and such personal care for our rabbit. Anytime I need to leave George somewhere now I will always go to them. He was treated like rabbit royalty! We were sent regular photos of him too, which was really lovely to receive.

5 From Sam Shaw on

Our two rabbits were looked after amazingly well by Ruth this April, meaning we could relax and enjoy our break too! Ruth has a huge knowledge and understanding of the needs of rabbits, which we found reassuring and which made it easier for us to leave our much-loved pets with her for their holiday. It is clear that Ruth cares immensely about rabbits and looks after each of her guests with great compassion and attention to their needs. She was attentive and sympathetic to our concerns and worries, answering all our questions with patience and understanding. We received daily video/photo updates from Ruth and these showed that our bunnies had a wonderful stay with her. We would not hesitate to recommend Ruth and we are thrilled to have found someone we can entrust our rabbits to when we go away.

5 From Emma on

Ruth is brilliant! I've never used bunny boarding before as I've always had family look after my two, but as we were going on a family holiday I needed to find someone I trusted with my 2- especially after one had been very poorly very recently. Ruth put me at ease from the first time I spoke to her. Her passion for bunny's and her knowledge of their health/needs is huge and I felt hugely reassured after speaking with her. During their stay they had a wonderful time, I got regular photo and video updates from Ruth on how they were getting on. I will use Ruth again and again without hesitation- the rabbits enjoyed their own holiday whilst we went on ours!

5 From Sophia Bendoraitis on

We took our 8 bunnies to Ruth for bonding. She updated us daily and you can tell she always has the rabbits best interest at heart. It was the first time we left them with anyone but family and was so worried but she instantly out our minds at ease and answered any questions we had. We would definitely use her again in the future for bonding or boarding.

5 From Hannah on

Ruth is so caring about all the bunnies she looks after and gives each one individual attention. Clarence is an indoor rabbit and was given lots of head rubs which he loves. He was very happy there as I could see from the up dates Ruth sent. I would highly recommend The Bunny Bus and would have no hesitation in sending Clarence back.

5 From Lindsay on

Ruth (affectionately known as the rabbit whisperer by our family) kindly took our rabbit to be bonded with a rescue rabbit who we were hoping to adopt. She was expert in guiding the process, taking great care and keeping us updated every step. The pair have successfully bonded and we have been given all the advice and support we need to happily transition them home. We are so grateful to Ruth for supporting this new-found friendship between our rabbits so that we could adopt. Thank you!

5 From Caroline on

Excellent - Roo provides 5* care, and is really communicative and helpful. I'll definitely use her again.

5 From Laura Hoar on

I would highly recommend the Bunny Bus for rabbit mini breaks - our two little rabbits had, by all accounts, a lovely stay with Ruth. Ruth kept us updated with photos and emails throughout their stay, and they clearly enjoyed the experience. And for us it was great that we had a chance to see where they would be staying before hand and we felt upon meeting Ruth that they would be in really safe hands. Ruth clearly adores rabbits, and is very knowledgeable! We wouldn't hesitate to leave our rabbits with Ruth again.

5 From Anna on

Our two bunnies Thumper and Winnie stayed at the bunny bus in October for a week. They loved their stay and settled very well. Ruth kindly kept us updated on how they were doing and sent pictures too. Lovely premises and large hutches. Would highly recommend.

5 From Stacey Cole on

Ruth is an absolute star and enabled the Bonding of my Two buns Bruce and Lumie .. not once but twice. Sadly Bruce got ill and they temporarily fell out of love but with Ruths support they are both happily loved up and together again!! I would recommend for Boarding or Bonding and cant thank Ruth enough for her help!

5 From Chris Meehan on

Could not recommend Ruth more!! She was absolutely fantastic with my 2 boys (Eeyore and Gibbs). They had been separated due to a fight shortly before to being neutered and I didn't think I would ever be able to get them reunited. However, they stayed with Ruth for 7 days over the Christmas period, over which time they were successfully rebonded. I couldn't believe the change in their behaviour to each other and I now have 2 very happy bunnies. Ruth provided plenty of updates and was very thorough in ensuring she knew all the relevant information to keep things as similar as possible to what the boys were used to at home! She provided advice for what to do once home with newly bonded rabbits and is happy to answer queries post bond as you gradually reintroduce your rabbits back into your home! I could not be happier!!!

5 From Kiera on

Ruth looked after my rabbit while I was away for 9 days. She kept me informed and sent photos every day. Ruth knows quite a lot about rabbits - very professional and would definitely recommend.

5 From Maria on

Amazing bonding service! I dropped my two rabbits off for 5 days (due to moving) for bonding, Ruth spoke to me in detail about the process and happily answered all of my questions. She sent me updates regularly and photos/videos and upon collection provided plenty of information/advice for after bonding. My rabbits are now back home getting on very well. I highly recommend The Bunny Bus for bonding services.

5 From Harriet Reid on

Ruth looked after my two buns Ruby and Rolo whilst I went away on a three week holiday. She was so very kind and allowed me to visit her home before their stay as I was anxious to leave my boy Rolo , who was disabled, whilst I was away. They settled in right away and Ruth accommodated to both of their needs and fit them right into her home. Ruth took such great care of Rolo - giving him bum baths, drying him, administering medication etc. Unfortunately Rolo was nearing the end of his life and passed away during their stay. Ruth was incredibly respectful, compassionate and informative to myself and my partner and guided us through this. Ruby became very close to Ruth after this and we're best friends. She was very much well looked after and has come home from an amazing holiday. We will definitely be using Ruth to board again, would highly recommend.

5 From Ellie on

Ruth has been fantastic supporting our 5 bunnies to become friends. I was too afraid to try to bond them as I don't understand the different behaviours and when to (not!) intervene. Ruth bonds the same way as the best person I'd previously met and trusted to do it with a group of mine so I was confident. I felt Ruth got to know the bunnies before I left them with her and I received photos and messages about their activities! So far it's been successful and all 5 are home together still friends! Having a group is so lovely to watch, they snuggle and have a real social structure so bunny tv is even better when they're all together being proper bunnies. Thank you Ruth for bonding them so well and kindly, and for your ongoing support whenever I have a worry!

5 From Kelly Steed on

Nice accommodation. The bunnies seemed really happy there. Ruth was kind and considerate, we would highly recommend The Bunny Bus.

5 From Joshua Dearman on

The Bunny Bus was recommended to us by a local bunny rescue centre. We booked our 3 bunnies in for 5 days for indoor boarding while we were away. Prior to arriving at The Bunny Bus, our son had been nervous about leaving our precious bunnies. But when we arrived, Ruth spent time with our son, asking him questions about the bunnies and what they liked etc. She also showed us around so that we could meet her bunny. By the time that we left our son was extremely happy that they would be happy and well looked after and so were we. Throughout our holiday, Ruth sent us photos and a couple of videos as our son had requested so we would know that they were having a lovely holiday. Ruth (The Bunny Bus) so obviously adores bunnies and gives the bunnies in her care the very best care and attention. We will definitely be using The Bunny Bus again!

5 From The Chaotic Campervaners on

Looking for care for our cheeky diva mini lop, how lucky we were to find Ruth. Our rabbit had had her own amazing holiday, with someone very knowledgable with a clear love for bunnies. Excellent clean facilities, loads of cuddles and play time, also lovely updates whilst we were away. Booked in again already and so relieved to have found someone who has such an understanding of their health, knows what to watch for etc with health if needed. Happy little bun and owner too x

5 From Adeline on

Ruth was very kind and flexible. She clearly knows a lot about rabbits, and we felt very reassured leaving our bunny in her care. She was happy to give him his medication, which was something we were concerned about and one of the reasons we didn't want to ask our usual friends to look after him. I would recommend Ruth's services to anyone who has small pets. She was great. Even allowing us to collect our bunny at quite an antisocial hour. The set-up is also exactly what we were looking for. We would definitely use her again (and I am very picky!! :-)) Thank you, Ruth.

5 From Louise Barton on

The perfect rabbit holiday for my bun! Ruths gentle and warm demeanor, along with the amazing facilities she has, made for total peace of mind while I was away. She had a lovely indoor run with a bed, tunnel, litter tray, soft mat and a ball! Next time I go on holiday I wouldn't consider having her anywhere else! Thank you so much Ruth!

5 From Anna on

Our bunny Toffee stayed with Ruth for two weeks whilst we were on holiday. She is an indoor bunny so had a large run area inside the house & outdoor time each day which she loves. Ruth came highly recommended by a friend, she really does absolutely love bunnies. Toffee was really well cared for with regular whatapp photo/video updates . I would highly recommend The Bunny Bus.

5 From Cath on

Ruth was so freindly and welcoming when taking my 3 girl bunnies to be bonded with her, easy to communicate with and always happy to update me on the process, was very thorough with wanting to know about each bunny individually and their cheeky personalities, would and have reccomended her to other wanting bunny bonding, was a fantastic and stress free experience

5 From Chloe Aldridge on

Home Visit: Ruth is amazing! She came over twice a day to feed and let my rabbit Horlicks out. Very trustworthy and friendly. Would 100% recommend!

5 From Madeline on

I would highly recommend Ruth's boarding to anyone. I felt reassured from the moment we got there as Ruth showed us where the rabbits would be and found out the rabbits' usual routines/food and whether they could have some free roam time. She is clearly very knowledgable about rabbits! Ruth kept me updated with pictures on how they were doing and when we got back it was clear they'd been well looked after and settled in well! Wouldn't hesitate to use again!

5 From Georgia Chambers on

I highly recommend The Bunny Bus, I left my 3 rabbits with Roo during one of the hottest summers on record. I was very impressed with the accommodation and was grateful for the daily updates, showing how my bunnies were keeping cool. I would leave my rabbits with Roo in a heartbeat as I am confident she can provide the gold standard care bunnies need.

5 From Pamela Anderson England on

Ruth was fantastic with our 10yo bunny, Bella. It was clear she was knowledgeable about rabbits and she made us feel comfortable from the outset. Her small business is clearly one of love for the animals over anything else. The accommodation was clean and safe, and we received regular updates on how Bella was doing. I wouldn't hesitate recommending The Bunny Bus to anyone.

5 From Neil on

I first met Ruth a couple of years ago when she rehomed a bunny for me whom proved to be an unsuitable mate for my little female. After sadly losing my most recent boy, I took on another to bond to my girl once more. I contacted Ruth out of the blue having not been in touch for a while and she was as lovely as I remember. My buns stayed with her for a week for bonding and they have come back a very happy (fingers crossed!) pair. It is clear to see how much Ruth loves her bunnies and how much knowledge she has. I wouldn't hesitate to call on Ruth again for both boarding and bonding advice. Very lovely, super knowledgeable and accommodating. Piggy and Marmalade say thank you! 😊

5 From Laura Schofield on

Our bunny stayed with Ruth for a week. Ruth is really nice! She is willing to take time to know about your rabbits before the boarding and will keep you updated. She took a good care of our bunny. Highly recommended!

5 From Chuxuan Xiao on

Ruth was amazing!! I packed off my three rabbits to her for bonding after my two boys had an awful fight, and they came back a week later the best of friends. Ruth gave me regular updates of how they were getting on with photos and videos, and was with them every step of the process. Ruth also made sure I was properly prepared for what I had to do when they came back, and all has gone swimmingly. I would thoroughly recommend the bunny bus and Ruth to anyone looking for help with their rabbits!!

5 From Libby Gaukroger on

Ruth looked after our rabbits last month when we were away for a week, and she was amazing with them. I was nervous about going away, as they've had some medical issues over the last couple of years, and Ruth was really reassuring, very knowledgeable about the signs to look out for, and we left knowing they were in excellent hands. We got daily updates and pictures, she took the time to make sure their routine stayed the same as it would at home, and they were really well cared for with her.

5 From Rebecca on

My three bunnies spend a week with Ruth when unexpectedly our regular boarding person was not available. My trio was look after very well, Ruth was treating them as her own rabbits. They trusted her from the moment we bring them there, all three came to say hello :) We were having regular WhatsApp updates - they weren't missing us at all :) being rotten spoiled! Highly recommended, great service and accommodation

5 From Maria on

I was recommended Ruth as a bonder by word of mouth in the rabbit community. Ruth was amazing with my rabbits, she set up a bed next to the bonding space and cared for their needs and looked after them. She sent me regular videos and images during the bonding process. My 2 bunnies have come back best friends. Ruth is a fellow rabbit lover. I knew they were in good hands. I thoroughly recommend her services and would definitely use Ruth to bond future rabbits or for boarding. Thank you once again. X

5 From Michelle Williams on

We first found Ruth when we were looking for someone to bond our gorgeous pair of rabbits. We call her the rabbit whisperer in our house! They have boarded with her ever since. They are very well loved and looked after when they stay with Ruth and we always have piece of mind. Nothing seems too much trouble and she is always happy to accommodate their little ways. Our rabbits really enjoy a holiday too. We thoroughly recommend Ruth ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5 From Monty on

We have just returned from our holiday and so have our bunnies from their holiday with Ruth. It really was a holiday, they both loved Ruth from the moment they saw her, running over to her to say their hello's. One of our little buns required Medication to be given whilst we were away and Ruth didn't mind at all. She sent regular updates on how the little buns were doing and put our minds at ease throughout their stay. Ruth cares and loves every rabbit that is in her care and every wish and request is fulfilled and she cares for them exactly as you want. We will genuinely never go to anyone else for rabbit care in the future, no one we could trust more! Thank you so much for everything Ruth!

5 From Ellie on

Ruth truly cares for all bunnies just as much as her own, after getting to know her I felt very confident leaving our Bean in her care while we were away. She made sure Bean was comfortable and made it as homely for her as possible. I loved receiving updates and photos through WhatsApp and seeing just how happy our bunny was! I was very worried about how she'd find it, but she was immediately comfortable and exploring her indoor enclosure Ruth provided. We're very happy with the care that was given and will 100% be using The Bunny Bus for boarding again, and possibly bonding too.

5 From Dominika Domirska on

Ruth has helped us out numerous times with bonding and boarding. Her kindness, care and expertise has been reassuring when leaving our 'challenging' indoor bunny with her. We regularly received updates which always puts our minds at ease. We would not hesitate to recommend The Bunny Bus :)

5 From Ellie on

Such a lovely lady who bonded our lonely Amy to a new husbun, Howie from a local rescue. I'd highly recommend Ruth for her bonding and boarding services for your treasured rabbits- they'll be safe and very well cared for.

5 From Jackie Bradley on

Ruth takes such wonderful care of our rabbit, Clover; she makes sure she has all her favourite food and treats and we like it that she can wander freely in the garden and can stay in the house too. Clover is an elderly rabbit and fell seriously ill last year while staying at Ruth's. Ruth took such incredible care of her including taking her to the vets, staying up with her at night and hand feeding her. Clover pulled through and is doing well; we wouldn't leave her anywhere else.

5 From Karen Duffield on

Ruth genuinely cares about the rabbits who board with her, (all rabbits in fact) my rabbits have been pampered whilst in her care. I am very fussy who I will trust with my rabbits and until I met Ruth I hadn't had a holiday in 7 years because I could never find anyone I trusted enough to care for them all the way I liked it, free roaming exercise, veg, enrichment, cuddles. Ruth will ask how you like them to be cared for, what they eat and toys they like, mine got daily veg and herbs, exercise outside to run about, it was like a big adventure for them. I'm hoping to have a holiday in the summer this year by the sea and because I trust Ruth it means I can drop my rabbits to her en-route and holiday enjoying myself knowing my rabbits are in safe hands and will be having a holiday themselves.

5 From Sarah Meehan on

Our two bunnies cookie (who we adopted from Ruth years ago) and miss Bertie love going on holiday to “auntie Ruth's” every time we go away. Sometimes just for a weekend and other times for longer, it's never any trouble for Ruth to adapt the living space to suit as they are indoor bunnies and so when they stay they have their own room indoors (miss Bertie is very fussy!) but Ruth is always happy to accommodate and make it perfect so both bunnies are relaxed and happy. The outside area is perfect for the buns to run, binkie and enjoy the fresh air, it's very secure so they can hop around exploring safely. Ruth is always happy to give us updates/pics on what adventures/mischief they are both having along with plenty of cuddles being given. We have always felt confident leaving our furbabies with Ruth as she is willing to discuss their care in detail and share advise if needed We would highly recommend.

5 From John yandell on

Ruth is attentive, caring and really takes the time to learn about your rabbits before she even starts looking after them. She is caring and compassionate which really helps put you and your bunnies at east. The video and photo updates are great and they give you reassurance whilst you and your bunnies are apart. She goes above and beyond and we would 100% recommend her to anyone.

5 From Oreo, Donald & Bean on

We are indoor buns and go to Auntie Ruths every time our mum goes away. She knows all our little characters and habits. We get our own space with lots of toys and an Ikea bed. Our littler trays and pens are cleaned each day and we get lots of super fresh hay. Fresh veg arrives every morning and pellets in the evening. If we're good we get our favourite treats too. Our best times are cuddle time (well for some of us!) and free-roam time. If the weather is bad then auntie Ruth knows how spoiled we are so we get to play indoors, if its lovely then we get supervised garden free roam. We love it, especially the game of tag at the end - I think its when auntie Ruth wants us to go back in but we love ‘catch us if you can'!! There are often other bunnies there and we all get our own pens and free roam time. We all get cuddles and individual attention. When Pigimust was poorly auntie Ruth took special care of him and he didn't escape having to have his medicine!! Aoife had a pedicure last time too as she is too wriggly for mum to do. Last summer when we went there auntie Ruth asked mummy if we might like an adventure staying in the outside pen. It was great! We had our own spacious hut with bedding, hay and all meals delivered to the door. We had en-suite grass runs with toys, tunnels, and a shady area for when the sun was out. Much fun! Being indoor buns we wouldn't want it all the time but it was great for a holiday! We go back for our next stay in a couple of weeks and cant wait!

5 From Aoife, Pigimust, Hutch and Meisha on

Ruth goes above and beyond to care for her small furry guests and to make worried owners feel at ease. I sent my male and female rabbits to her for a week in December 2021 to be bonded and they were catered for their every need. We spoke lots before they stayed so she knew their personalities, diet and any specific requirements and she was at hand for advice after their stay. It's difficult to find indoor boarding for house bunnies but she has secure indoor pens with plenty of room and enrichment which is great. Outdoor set ups are brilliant too, very safe. I was able to speak to Ruth whenever I needed to for updates and to see how they were during their stay. I have now booked for boarding in April and June 2022 and wouldn't want to send them anywhere else. I trust Ruth to give them the right care, she treats them like they're one of her own. You can tell Ruth has a real passion for caring for rabbits.
