Cat Sitting in Milton Ernest

Ahoy, me hearties! As I approached the establishment, me trusty hound Salty by me side, I couldn't help but mutter, "Blimey, this place be fancier than the Governor's mansion we plundered last month!" A cheery lass greeted us at the door. "Welcome to Hunters Lodge! How can we help you today?" "Arrr," I growled, "I be needin' a place to stow me first mate while I'm off plunderin'... err... I mean, vacationin'." The lass smiled, seemingly unfazed by me pirate garb. "Of course! We'd be happy to look after your dog. What's his name?" "This here be Salty," I said, puffing out me chest. "The fiercest sea dog to ever sail the seven seas!" At that moment, Salty rolled over, begging for a belly rub. "I can see he's a real terror," the lass chuckled. As we toured the facilities, I couldn't help but be impressed. "Shiver me timbers!" I exclaimed, "These quarters be nicer than me captain's cabin!" The lass nodded, "We pride ourselves on our comfortable accommodations." Under me breath, I muttered to Salty, "Don't be gettin' too used to this luxury, ye mangy mutt. It's back to ship's biscuits and grog when we set sail again." Salty wagged his tail, clearly not sharing me concerns. When it came time to leave, I found meself gettin' a bit misty-eyed. "Now, ye be good, Salty," I said gruffly. "No mutinies while I'm gone, ye hear?" The staff assured me they'd take good care of him. As I turned to leave, I overheard one worker whisper to another, "Is it Talk Like a Pirate Day already?" "Nay," replied the other, "I think he's just... eccentric." With a final "Arrr!" I swaggered out, secretly pleased to have found such a fine port for me canine companion. As I set sail in me car, I couldn't help but think, "Yo ho ho!. Salty be livin' like a king while I'm off... err... relaxin' on the high seas!"

My two kitties Tillie and Daisy stayed here for a week from 16th Oct 24. They were very well looked after, the lady who looked after them was great and even found the time to give them their Licky Licks. I called them while I was away in Spain, to see if they were okay and the lady who answered knew exactly which cats I meant and was able to reassure me straight away. When I collected them at the end of their week they were looking very well and healthy. They’d never been away from home before and are only one year old (sisters) so they were very excited when we got home. I was pleased they had been so well looked after.

A truly lovely place with lots of space. Definitely feels like the place caters to dogs more than cats which is unfortunate. I didn’t really feel like my cat had a proper handover on her care (her behaviour etc) as she gets very nervous at catteries. The handover was very quick. I didn’t really get a chance to say bye before she was taken by a young girl. I ended up picking her up a day early and I had no handover whatsoever on how she did. Did she eat? Was she okay? I have no idea. The two young girls holding her bag and carrier didn’t greet or say anything to me. I also can’t find a white kicker toy that we sent her with although I’m not sure if that was lost prior to us handing her over. This establishment is truly a beautiful place and we really wanted to like it as it’s close to us, but for the price and the experience we had, we’d only come back if everywhere else was booked.

i was anxious to put my cats here while i was going abroad, but the staff were so polite and helpful when i called with questions, and when i arrived with my cats they were so helpful, kind and asked all the questions i wanted to be asked like routine, eating, medications etc. they even sent me pics while i was away and missing the cats! when i came to collect them almost 2 weeks later, they were quick, and kind again. i am definitely going to continue using Hunters Lodge for all of my trips! such a great peace of mind and my cats definitely seemed happy when they came home!

Because of an unexpected hospitalization, we contacted the Hunters Lodge just before closing time, and they kindly accommodated our dog. The team was incredibly accommodating! The kennels were impeccably clean, and the staff was friendly, showing genuine love and interest in animals. The supervised play sessions for the dogs were excellent, and most importantly, our dog was pleasantly tired out when we picked her up. There's nothing to dislike about their service. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

My dogs have been staying at Hunters Lodge for 10 years and my cats for 2 years. It was a great addition when the cattery was up and running. The care and attention from the staff is of the best quality, as are the kennels. My rescue dog is not the easiest to manage, and not every kennel would take him on. So I cannot thank Richard enough for his help with this situation. Any special requirements and medicine giving has never been a worry and my dogs get so excited as soon as we pull onto the driveway, always a reassuring sign they love their stay here. Yvonne always greets you with a smile and a chat and keeps a check on things. I could never consider taking my fur kids anywhere else. Huge thank you from Lesley, Coco, Jet, Dexter and Darcy

I recently had the pleasure of boarding my beloved dog at Hunters Lodge, and I couldn't be more delighted with the experience. From the moment I talked to Yvonne, I knew my furry friend would be in excellent hands. First and foremost, the staff at Hunters Lodge are outstanding. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals were evident from the start. It was evident that they truly care about the well-being and happiness of every pet entrusted to them. The facilities at Hunter Lodge are top-notch. The kennels are spacious, clean, and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and safe environment for all the dogs. I appreciated the attention to detail in keeping the surroundings hygienic and welcoming. One of the highlights of Hunters Lodge is the supervised playtime for the dogs. Knowing that my dog was able to socialize and exercise under careful supervision brought me peace of mind during my time away. The staff's dedication to ensuring the dogs' happiness and safety is truly commendable. Moreover, communication with the staff was seamless. They were always available to provide updates on my dog's well-being and activities, which I greatly appreciated. It's clear that they understand the importance of keeping pet owners informed and reassured while they're away. When I picked up my dog, she was happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. It was evident that she had enjoyed her time at Hunters Lodge, and that meant the world to me. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Hunters Lodge to any pet owner in need of boarding services. Their exceptional care, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals set them apart. I wouldn't hesitate to entrust my dog to their care again in the future. Thank you, Hunters Lodge Team, for providing such a wonderful home away from home for our furry family members!

Our 9 month old Springer Spaniel Freddie has been at Hunters Lodge for over 3 months recovering from a broken leg. A massive thanks to Richard, Hayley, Yvonne and all the team for taking such wonderful care of him. He is now home with our other spaniels and I am pleased to say has made a full recovery. Special thanks goes out to Sophie who spent so much time one on one with him along with other colleagues. We cannot thank you enough and the service and facilities you offer to both owners and their pets are first class. Thank you again from Karen, myself and of course Freddie.

Our dog is 13 years old, Cairn Terrier, he has some health problems, we didn't inform him about it, but the hotel owner was very kind and accepted him. When we picked up the dog, he looked very happy and even better than before. Now we’ll leave him here, I think he likes it. It is also very cool that i can book days of stay through the website, we came from London, but it was good idea, because service and people was very friendly. Also I like black dog in reception area. He likes our dog, it’s a good sign, because usually our dog not friendly at all.

We have been so impressed with Hunters Lodge Kennels as it was our first time we have used them and Richard and his team came highly recommended by friends that regularly kennel their dogs there. Our Springer Spaniel pup Freddie, broke his leg in December and needed specialist care. I cannot thank Yvonne enough for her attention and for organizing his care and to Sophie who has given love, attention and stimulation for such a live wire. Freddie is happy and healthy and half way through his rehabilitation under their care. Richard and Yvonne report back regularly with updates on his progress which is really important. The facilities are great and all staff we have met are enthusiastic friendly and professional. My husband and I would thoroughly recommend the services of Hunters Lodge Kennels to anyone. Thank you again to your team on behalf of us and most of all Freddie.

We asked Marina to look after our 2 cats several times and it’s always been a pleasure. She’s responding quickly and accommodating for any requests we have. Our 2 cats are quite shy and nervous so hotel was not an option. They trusted Marina really quickly so I knew they were in good hands. Definitely recommend!

I found Mk pet care through online search and came across Marina from our very first conversation over the phone I felt our kitty’s would be in safe hands she came across very switched on and a trustworthy pet lover! She attended are kitty home (of 8 🐱) while we had to go away for 4 days she kept me informed every time she attended and the cats enjoyed the company and remaining in there own home with no big changes 🐱 she house visited and kept them fed and watered and there spaces clean also giving them attention/brushing them id recommend Marina too anyone who requires pet sitting services beforehand I was very nervous and feeling bad about leaving my cats but she delivers outstanding care for our cats and home and listens and attends to any request or pet rules you may have! Thanks a lot for your help from Steven&Karina and the🐱s !

I've been taking my Rabbit here for the last 6 years every time we go in holiday. She had been always very well looked after. Gary is a very kind man that always takes care of all the aspects of caring about a small pet, feeding them, letting them out, and giving them a lot of love. I totally recommend it!

We are taking our bunny here for a few years and the services are the best. Gary is such a lovely, caring person and puts a lot of effort in looking after the animals! We would highly recommend him. He is the best! 🤗 …

We have used MK Pet Care on many occasions over the last few years and I cannot recommend Gary enough! He is always quick to respond to our enquiries and we feel relaxed knowing that our Guinea Pigs are with someone who we can trust. The prices are very affordable for the services they offer.

I boarded my Rabbit here last week for the first time and he was looked after so so well that I have now booked for him to return for all holidays. Gary was very accommodating to needs and you can tell he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after!

Gary did a wonderful job in looking after my three fussy rescue rats. He took care to follow their care needs and it showed, as they came home calm and happy. Edit: Gary did an excellent job with administering liquid medicine during the rats' second board

Highly recommend Gary and Marina for providing a happy holiday home for little furries. My guinea pigs have boarded for a good number of years and are exceptionally well cared for. Wonderful peace of mind. Lovely people too!

I left my Guineas with Gary and they had a great week. Gary is super kind and the Guineas were so well looked after. They will be going on holiday there again! Thank you so much-

Used their services this summer for our cat and we are delighted. Comes round on a daily basis to check the house and feed our cat. Also sends updates on a weekly basis or more often if you prefer. A pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend!

Nic and Nichola have turned our Vesper’s life around. Vesper became somewhat anti social as a result of a dog attack and a life threatening allergic reaction to medication. She tipped 50Kgs on the scale and was in a bad way. Nic and Nicola took her on as a project and her life has been turned around! She has lost over 10Kgs, runs and socialises with other dogs daily. She no longer barks at everything that moves, eats a well balanced diet and sleeps like a log at night. Thank you all for helping us out because Vesper is our fur baby.

Nic kindly agreed to come and look after our 2 ferrets at our home for nearly 3 weeks. Trying to find someone to do this was really difficult and Nic took a chance with this even though ferrets were new to him. He did an amazing job and the ferrets took to him really well. He came in and cleaned them out and played with them every day and sent us video and picture updates, which put my daughters mind at rest. Having access to this service has given us back the chance to go away as a family safe in the knowledge that the ferrets are happy and the house is safe. Would recommend Nic and his team to anyone looking for a professional pet service.

Great service. My pups always have a good time, and Nic and staff go the extra mile if needed. Would definitely recommend.

I can't recommend Nic highly enough. He is trustworthy, flexible and reliable but - most importantly - the care, play and attention he gives to my Bully is exactly what I was looking for when I found We Love Pets. It's not easy to find someone who you know will treat your pet as good as you would, but Nic always sends pictures and updates so I know he's having fun without me! If he could talk, I'm pretty sure he would tell me to work from the office more often!

Teddy my cocker spaniel goes to Nic four days a week for day care. He loves spending the day with Nic and his new pals Buddy and Lola. I feel very lucky to have found Nic . I know that Teddy is well cared for and treated like one of the family. Wouldn’t take my little man to anyone else.

I wanted Ash to have a home-from-home experience rather than placing her in kennels and I found just that! She was treated as part of the family and given all the attention and care I could hope for - thanks to Nic and family for looking after Ash so well. She enjoyed the company of humans and dog friends as well as the envious huge garden - I think she’s almost disappointed to be be in her normal habitat in comparison now! Thanks again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to everyone who wants a similar experience for their pets.

Derek is a very nervous boy when you meet him and Nic has been absolutely fantastic with him from the word go! He takes time to get to know all about Derek and what his likes and dislikes are and Derek has definitely made a new best friend for life! Nic is extremely helpful with my busy schedule and is always helping out where ever he can! He has taken so much pressure off of us with a busy lifestyle and Derek always enjoys the walks and time they spend together and comes back with a grin everytime! I cannot recommend Nic enough! Absolutely amazing!

Nic @ We Love Pets in Milton Keynes is doing a superb job in helping us look after our 4 month old Cockapoo named Sammy. Nic is supporting us with both some puppy drop in and day care packages - we trust him implicitly with Sammy.

Really happy with the level of service i have received from Nic. I have been looking for someone for some time as my dog breed has proven to be one of the most challenging breeds due to his size and power. Nic knows exactly what he is doing and has built a loving and trustful relationship with Drogo.

Nic was amazing. Super pet focused … he clearly loves pets! He checked in and walked our dog a couple of times when we were out for the day. She seemed very happy when we came back.

Our dog Penny loved her time at the daycare as well as had great cuts from their grooming team! Scott and Hannah are so lovely and never had to worry about Penny has she was in excellent hands!
