About our Small Pet Boarding

We board: RabbitsGuinea PigsBirdsReptilesHamsters, Mice etc.Ferrets

Bespoke Pet Care Service based in Burwell, Cambridgeshire. With well over 12 years of experience working with animals. Village based pet care delivered to you by an experienced and passionate animal carer. Custom tailored to your requirements! Prices range depending on the details of the job required so please do message with your enquires to discuss your pets needs first. We work with all animal types including reptiles and insects (we're not screamish!) however our specialism is with small pets (with a past background and formal training working with small furry mammals)

We pride ourselves on being a premium pet care service offering flexible options, depending on your pets needs. These include our most popular services of one, two or three daily house visit (depending on your pets needs/price varies). Please note-House visits are only available for Burwell and surrounding villages currently. OR secondly, our five star rated home from home small pet boarding service (this service normally gets booked up for the summer months so get in early). Boarding is strictly for small pets, not for cats or dogs.

So what makes us different? Well, most standard pet care companies lack the personal touch, the true training to fully understand the animal their caring for and don’t have the time to really stop and spend time with your pets. But we pride ourselves on giving time to your pet each day which includes plenty of play time and fussing over. The majority of commercial pet care tends to only focus on cats and dogs- but here, we focus on our smaller critters. Small furies are often over looked or considered very easy to care for-they are in fact complex animals that require an understanding and experienced level of care by someone who is able to administer medication, handle the pet correctly, monitor ongoing chronic health conditions and able to notice subtle changes that may indicate illness or a developing problem. We are pleased to not only offer pet care but also be able to offer clients, unique guidance and advice on their pet’s diet and welfare if they so choose. We openly welcome clients emailing us with any pet queries, or just wanting general advise which can be really useful for folk who are new to owning their pet and may not fully gage what it entails e.g. what vaccines they need, what foods to avoid, best vets in the area etc.

We also cover care for reptiles, birds, fish and pretty much any small creature in need of our services. We often hear from clients how their cats or small animal gets very stressed going to a kennel or boarder- this can lead to illness and unnecessary anxiety, this is why we like to focus on home from home based care and house calls- bringing the care your pet needs to them, rather than them going somewhere else!

Lastly we recognize that it can be very nerve racking for the owner to leave their pet in the care of someone else. To help reassure them while they are away and make the most of their holiday, we always offer to send photo/ video updates on a frequency according to what the client has requested e.g daily, every other day, once a week or not at all if they so chose. The welfare of the pet is our number one priority and every animal under our care will always be treated as part of the family just as our own pets are.

Saffra did a brilliant job of looking after our two bunnies while we were away for the weekend. I felt 100% relaxed leaving them in the care of someone who has so much experience with rabbits and is super knowledgeable about them. She went out of her way to make sure they had a super clean living space and all of their favourite things, and I really appreciated the updates and photos of them each day. I don't think they even realised we were gone! Thanks so much Saffra, we will definitely be in touch next time we need someone to look after our precious bunnies!! I highly recommend to anyone with rabbits - you won't find anyone better to look after them!

My ferrets were extremely well cared for and I had no concerns leaving them with Saffra

5 From Dave on

Saffra took great care of our senior piggy while we were away for a week. Saffra took care of her medication and even sent us daily photos (which let us relax more, knowing she was okay!). We will definitely be asking Saffra to look after her again in the future.

5 From Ciara Bullock-Hillary on

Saffra did an excellent Job of looking after my bunny Bramble. This is the first time I have used Nibbles & Custard and definitely won't be the last. Definitely five stars Thank you for caring for my bunny so well and for passing on your knowledge on rabbit care Jenny

5 From Jenny Juggins on

Absolutely perfect in every way! We were apprehensive about leaving our two cats for the first time other than kennels but wanted a service provider who could offer them the same care at home, causing no distress. I was recommended Nibbles and Custard and the service was perfect throughout. From the first home visit to discuss our pets needs, cleaning, routines, feeding, to the actual time we were away all was smooth and we felt confident the cats were being well looked after. We even got picture updates, the house was kept clean and tidy (when our monkeys made a mess) and they didn't seem to be phased with our return which was a plus. Very happy pets and very happy owners. We will 100% be using them for all our family holidays

5 From Victoria Smith on

My two guinea pigs were looked after brilliantly by Nibbles & Custard Pet Services. One of my piggies has additional needs, and Saffra was able to make sure that all the supplements and monitoring he needed was in hand and I didn't have to worry about him. It was so reassuring to get little updates. The boys give her service 5 stars and so do I!

5 From Rachel on

Saffy looked after my cat Hope and my bunny Fefi whilst we were away on holiday. Saffy administered important medication to my cat twice daily and was confident doing so. Both bunny and cat were very well looked after and I felt content that they were receiving the best care in our absence. It is hard to find a rabbit savvy person like Saffy, who understands correct rabbit welfare and husbandry, so I had no doubt that Fefi was in good hands if anything abnormal was to arise. We received daily updates and photos which were very much appreciated. I would highly recommend Saffy for all your pet care needs if you are planning to go away and will definitely be using this service again in the future. Thank you so much 😊

5 From Amber Vale on

Nibbles and Custard Pet Services took very good care of our guinea pigs while we were on holiday. Saffra is clearly organised and very knowledgeable and gave excellent care. We loved getting the daily photos she sent. Will definitely be using the service again.

5 From Helen on

Thank you Saffra for giving our piggies amazing care while we were away. Having only recently rescued them I was nervous about someone looking after them. Saffra completely put us at ease and she was very caring and knowledgeable and sent us regular updates which we really appreciated. I would 100% recommend her.

5 From Beverley on

This was the first time (but definitely not the last!) that Saffra cared for our two piggles. She was so pleasant and helpful, flexible to our pets' needs and really understands and loves animals! She went above and beyond in terms of exceptional service. Thank you!

5 From Sarah on

Would definitely recommend Nibbles and Custard pet services. Our two guinea pigs were really happy and well looked-after, with great communication beforehand about their needs and routines, and frequent updates whilst we were away which were really reassuring. Saffra definitely went the extra mile in terms of caring for the piggies.

5 From Kay on

Incredibly helpful and friendly, sent me pictures every other day so I new my guinea pigs were well and I could always see that they were being kept extremely clean and very happy! Couldn't be more satisfied!

5 From Coco on

I met Saffra a couple of times and both I was satisfied with the help she gave me. She came to meet my cat Tokyo before her very first attendance and they immediately bonded really well! She was happy to follow the instructions I gave her and spend some time with him. I also have gerbils, and Saffra was never bothered to look after them. I appreciated the daily updates every time she was coming to look after my furry friends. Her prices are convenient compared to the market in Cambridgeshire and she is definitely a good recommendation!

5 From Luca Bellomo on

First time using nibbles custard very impressed with the personal service supplied for our rabbit George will most definately use again and would highly recommended

5 From Gary on

I am so pleased to have found Saffra! She visits our dogs regularly when we are at work, making a fuss of them, having a play and letting them out in the garden. They took to Saffra straight away and we were impressed with her caring approach and knowledgeability. She is also very reliable, which means a lot to us. Saffra looked after our guinea pigs while we were on holiday and again, we were very happy with the conscientious, professional service we received. We really felt the piggies were being giving lots of attention and getting TLC from Saffra - we will definitely be asking her to look after them for us in the future. Highly recommended.

5 From Annie Neild on

I have used this service for the past two summers. My two rats are always cared for in a highly professional manner. I would highly recommend and never hesitate to use Nibbles and Custard for any pet care I needed.

5 From Maria MacIntosh on

I would definitely recommend Nibbles and Custard Pet Services, Saffra provided excellent care of my tortoise,Mr T, whilst I was away for 2 weeks she's knowledgeable, professional and personable and really cares for the animals she looks after. I will certainly be using Saffra to look after Mr t every time I'm away in the future. Thank you Saffra.

5 From Paul Hooper on

A lovely professional service, from making an enquiry to a home visit a quick response. Notes were made about my fussy animals (1 cat, 2 chickens) All the right questions were asked. My pets were beautifully looked after. I have already booked again. Thank you for a lovely 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ service.

5 From Sara Abraham on

Saffra was amazingly kind and agreed last minute to visit our ragdoll cat for a few days as she unexpectedly needed antibiotics twice a day. Saffra was brilliant, wasn't phased by the medication, which made me feel confident to go away, and sent me pictures and updates to let me know our ragdoll was doing great. Highly recommended.

Our rabbits have just returned happy and healthy from Custard and Nibbles. She was very knowledgeable about rabbits which put my mind at rest. I will definitely use it again.

5 From Mark Gibson on

Saffra looked after our two house cats, visiting every day while we were away. She took wonderful care of them and sent us daily messages and pictures to put our minds at rest that they were happy and healthy. We will definitely use her services again and it's one less thing to worry about knowing our pets are in her care

I've used Nibbles and Custard for my cats and fish twice and I have super happy with their service. My cats and fish have been well taken care of and my plants were also watered daily! My mind was at ease that my pets and the house were in good and capable hands and it seems like my cats also like the sitter as they come out to her. Thanks very much for your help!
