About Best Buddies

We’ve been looking after Peterborough’s pets since 2015! We offer a one to one, trustworthy service, giving you peace of mind when you’re not there �

Best Buddies Description

At the age of 10 I got my first rescue dog Benji, a stubborn Golden Retriever who used to chew the heads off my barbie dolls! Even so became like a best friend and a part of the family.

This is where my passion, respect, intrigue and love of animals started and why I wanted to work with them one day.

Best Buddies offers to walk and care for your pets when you are unable to, whether this be a one off, or on a regular basis. Giving you peace of mind while you are not there.

Why use a dog walking /pet sitting service?

You may have work commitments, attending an all day event like a wedding, (i've been there, rushing home to let the dog out! ) or ill health. . . it breaks my heart that some people have to give up their beloved pet because they can no longer walk them.

My aim is to offer an alternative to kennels and instead offer a one to one, trustworthy service to you and your pets enabling them to be able to stay in their own home.

Before I walk or look after you pets I will arrange a convenient time to visit you and your pet at home, this way they can get to know, and become familiar with me. This also gives me an opportunity to find out what they like /dislike, favourite games and routes or any medical issues they may have. You may also have some questions for me.

Dog walking

On the day, I will pick up your dog from home and take them on a local walk for the agreed amount of time. I offer 30 minute, 45 minute and 1 hour walks.

Having lived in Peterborough for over 25 years and having owned dogs for nearly 20 years, I know a lot of good routes!

Pet Sitting

I will arrive at your requested time of day, feed, top up water, let them out for a toilet break and give your pet some fuss and attention (if they want it! ) Again i offer 30 minute, 45 minute and 1 hour visits.

If you will be away for longer than a day I can also open and close curtains /water plants /switch lights on and off if you require.

Wedding package

You’ve got the dress, the cake, the venue…but who’s going to look after your best buddies while all your family and friends are with you celebrating your big day.

Best Buddies is now offering bespoke packages to suit you and your pet’s needs, while allowing them to stay in their own environment.

I can offer:
A mixture of walks and visits throughout the day
Half day or full day care in your own home
Overnight care
Or a combination of all of these!

If you would love for your best buddy to be there on your big day for the photos I can also bring them along to your venue for an extra charge (dependant on location of venue)

Please contact me for a quote as a package will be tailor made for you.

As the last walk was so much fun I thought another one before Christmas would be nice! :) Come as festive as you like, and there will be a prize for best dressed doggy! Mia will be sporting a Christmas jumper :)
Location will be Orton Longueville woods at the back of Orton Hall Hotel. There is a huge field next to the woods so great for a run! If we meet in the car park and set off just after 10 again.
See you there!

If you haven’t seen the post about the Best Buddies walk on Saturday have a look at the event which should be at the top of the page. We’re meeting at Orton Mere car park at 10! No cost and you don’t have to be a customer just a social walk and I’ll be bringing my pup Mia 🐶

Honouring the animals of war 💜

Ronnie & Roxy were quite nervous when I first looked after them, Roxy in particular wouldn’t come anywhere near me but amazingly they both came in for breakfast this morning! Yay!
I always give nervous cats space which seems to have worked for the girls. I think this was my 4th or 5th visit to them so I’m really pleased 😊

If i smile as big as possible can I have my kong?? 😀

Join me for a group walk at Ferry Meadows with your best buddies! My pup Mia would love to meet as many of you as possible :)
Open to customers or anyone who would like to make friends.
... If your buddy is not keen on a group environment or you're not sure how they will react, please feel free to meet us for a short time and then branch off at any point.
Dogs should be kept on lead while walking in the group as I know some of my buddies like their space, but feel free to walk ahead or branch off for a run off lead.
Roughly an hour but not set in stone.
Starting point will be near the car park at Orton Mere next to the lock and railway station (free parking).
Any questions please ask :)

Sunny but chilly walk with our pup Mia 😊🐶

We’ve used Rachel a number of times and cannot recommend her enough. With our work our hours can be unpredictable and Rachel will very often be able to accommodate any last minute visits/walks which we are so grateful for as we hate leaving them for long periods of time. The dogs clearly love seeing her too! Thank you!

User

We honestly can't speak any higher of Rachel. After a few years of using a cattery where leaving them always made me anxious and upset as I knew they weren't happy cooped up, Rachel was recommended by a friend. Rachel has now looked after our boys numerous times over the last year and we no longer worry whilst we're away as we know they're in safe hands. They get to stay in their home and are cared for by a wonderful lady who cares and fusses for them as if they were her own; we no longer return from holiday to 2 stressed and upset kitties. Thank you so much and please don't ever move away!! Kerri-Anne & Dan

Used Best Buddies for the first time this week. Would not hesitate to recommend Rachel and will definitely use her in future.

User

The sweetest young lady � % trust. My doggies wanted for nothing, love, walks & lots of cuddles. Highly recommended � xx

User

User

So professional, friendly and extremely reliable would definitely recommend

User

Rachel, is so helpful & has gone out her way to help us make best descions for our dogs. Highly recommend

User

Rachel was excellent looking after our menagerie (2 dogs, 1 cat, 1 hedgehog, 1, 1 hamster, 1 snake and 1 cave gecko) while we were away. She came to meet us before we went and was both friendly and professional as well as having an instant rapport with our dogs. Rachel asked lots of questions about each of our animals individual needs so she could offer them the best possible care, she also had all her paperwork, DBS and insurance with her for us to see. Nothing seemed too much trouble for her even cleaning out the hedgehog! While away we had regular texts and updates and loved seeing the photos of the animals. When we returned the animals were clean, healthy Nd most importantly appeared unstressed. Rachel was also I thought extremely reasonably priced and flexible in what hours she was required. Would definitely use best buddies again and highly recommend Rachel. Thank you Rachel, we knew we could relax and enjoy our break with you looking after our babies :)

User

Rachel walked my 2 Labs while away 100%reliable flexible and they throughly enjoyed their walks was lovely to come home to happy relaxed dogs as they didn't cope with kennels in the past so Thankyou from Paddy &Cracker ��
