Going on holiday should be an enjoyable time but it can often cause lots of worrying when trying to find someone to take care of your small pets, or people letting you down at the last minute who normally can pop round to feed them. We have struggled previously trying to find somewhere for our pets to stay which is what helped me to make the decision to setup Lindsey's Little Lodgers.
We are a luxury boarding establishment offering indoor & outdoor accommodation catering for your much loved rabbits and guinea pigs, whether they are house or garden pets. Other small animals are also considered in their own cage.
Located in the Broadwater area of Stevenage, we are ideally placed close to A602 and the A1M, we are easily accessible from Welwyn Garden City, Hitchin, Ware and Hertford.
Our boarding accommodation is designed for boarding small animals, it stands within a large quiet garden and is secure, clean and well lit for all our guests creature comforts.
We have a variety of hutches from your standard rabbit/guinea pig hutch to the more superior walk in lodges.
We have a selection of luxury super deluxe lodges with large enclosures with lots of space for bunnies to hop and play.
Don't worry your rabbit or guinea pig will still be let out in one of our runs for their daily exercise if in a standard hutch, unless of course you would prefer them not to.
We also have a few indoor hutches for pets that are not used to being outside, our indoor lodges are well ventilated for the warmer weather and we also have air conditioning units and have heating during the colder months. We are also happy to board hamsters or other small animals if brought in their own cages. We look forward to becoming acquainted with each of our guests individual personalities, and each guest becomes familiar with us and our daily routine too, this makes boarding away from home an enjoyable and stress free experience for your pet, giving you peace of mind to enjoy your holiday or business trip.
Our hutches are spot cleaned daily and fresh water supplied, we also provide fresh fruit, vegetables and hay and have a few different types of dry food but ask that you bring your own dry food mix if your pet has specific dietary requirements.
We thoroughly clean and air our hutches between boarders.
None of our guests will share a run or hutch with any unrelated bunny or guinea pig.
*Please note rabbits are required to be vaccinated against Viral Haemorrhagic Disease and Myxomatosis and RVHD2 to board with us, we will need to see current vaccination certificates when you bring your rabbit to stay with us. Unfortunately without seeing evidence of vaccinations we cannot board your rabbit*
We will require a £20 non refundable deposit to secure your booking with us. All remaining fees are then to be paid when dropping your pets off with us for their holiday. Currently we accept cash payments only at check in. If you decide to cancel your booking then your deposit is not transferable to another booking.
Once dates have been booked and a deposit paid they are your secured dates, any changes afterwards would incur an amendment fee and cannot be guaranteed as new dates might be unavailable.
Cancellations if made well within time do not incur any charges you just lose your deposit/booking fee, if within 7 days of arrival then 25% of your final balance will be due as it doesn't allow much time to let that space. If cancellations are within 48 hours of arrival then full payment of boarding fees are due as we would have turned many people away for the space especially if during our busiest times as it will be impossible to fill with such short notice.
We are open for drop off and collection Monday to Friday 9.30am until 11.00am and then 5pm until 6pm Saturday 9.30am until 10.30am and then from 5pm until 6pm Sunday we are closed.
We offer a door check in and collection service and work strictly by appointment only, we ask that all customers are on time and allow plenty of time to get pets into pet carriers and for the journey to get here especially during school holidays.
Pets must arrive in a suitable pet carrier as per our boarding requirements. We are open all year round although at Christmas and other bank holidays we are not open for drop off or collections.
We do not charge additional rates for animals boarding with us during Christmas and bank holidays.
