MY STORY
Passion for Animals
Hi, my name is Pip and I run Dogs and Digs. I am only too aware of the difficulties of juggling work and dog ownership, having cared for my border Collie, Tess, for 14 years while working full time.
​
So when the opportunity arose, I decided to leave the company where I had worked for 20 years and set myself up as a solution for people who want a dog but have to work. I offer a friendly and reliable service to care for your dog, having them spend the day with me at my home.
I also offer a boarding service ranging from occasional overnight care through to the annual fortnight away. You will have peace of mind knowing your pet is still happy in a home environment with lots of fuss and company while you enjoy your own holiday. I live in a detached bungalow with a large secure garden. I am only a couple of minutes walk from a large dog-friendly park which leads onto woods, fields, the canal and several miles of the traffic-free Great Central Way. All perfect walking areas.
​
II am DBS checked, fully insured and have passed several pet first aid courses. I am also licensed by Blaby District Council.
The first step is a 'meet and greet', with a visit here if you are thinking about daycare or boarding. Ideally your dog will spend a few hours with me before coming for an overnight stay. I offer this at no charge because it is important that we are all happy that the arrangement is suitable.
​
So do get in touch if you think I can help!
