Dog Home Boarding
Our home dog boarding service provides a 'home from home' experience for dogs. Carefully selected host families offer personalized attention, regular updates with photos, and maintains daily routines. Hosts are licensed, pet first-aid trained, and supported by Pet Pals throughout the boarding period. This service includes exercise, feeding, medication administration, and socialization opportunities with other dogs when appropriate.
Cat Sitting
Professional cat sitting services maintain feline routines in their familiar home environment. Our trained sitters provide feeding, playtime, litter tray maintenance, and medication administration. Regular visits include housekeeping tasks like post collection and plant watering to maintain home security while owners are away. All cat sitters undergo DBS checks and pet first-aid training.
Dog Walking
Flexible dog walking services accommodate busy schedules with regular or ad-hoc visits. Our walkers provide mental stimulation through park visits and socialization opportunities in controlled group settings. Solo walks are available for timid dogs. The service includes basic behavioral monitoring and helps maintain optimal physical health through structured exercise routines tailored to each dog's needs.

Our house sitting service combines pet care with home security. Professional sitters reside in clients' homes during their absence, providing constant presence to deter crime. Services include pet care, mail collection, trash management, and maintaining household routines. All sitters are DBS checked, insured, and trained in pet first-aid to ensure complete safety for both property and animals.
Elderly Dog Care
Specialized care for senior dogs focuses on comfort, health monitoring, and routine maintenance. Services include medication administration, gentle exercise programs, cognitive stimulation activities, and regular health assessments.
