Hi everyone,
As Beau’s Best Friends reaches its 8‑month milestone, I’ve taken some time to gently review how the business is running — the hours I’m working, the growing demand, and the level of care I give to every pet I look after.
A little reminder that it’s just me — Lucy behind Beau’s Best Friends. Every walk, visit, update, message, key and mile is done by me alone. I pour my whole heart into keeping the service consistent, reliable and truly 5‑star.
One of the things that makes Beau’s Best Friends different is that I offer one‑to‑one care only. No big group walks, no mixing households, no overstimulation. Your pet has my full attention — their pace, their needs, their personality. This is a premium, safety‑led service, and your animals are always my priority.
I’m so grateful for 20+ five‑star Google reviews, and I’m dog first‑aid trained, DBS checked and fully insured — your pet’s wellbeing will always come first.
Over these months I’ve noticed:
• I regularly travel well beyond my 6‑mile radius
• Fuel costs have risen
• Demand has grown, especially weekends/out‑of‑hours
• My working hours have stretched further
To protect my time, wellbeing and the quality of care your pets receive, I’ve made some small price adjustments from 1st September. This hasn’t been an easy decision, but it’s needed to keep the service sustainable.
✨ Any invoices already issued will stay at the current price.
New bookings from 1st September will follow the updated prices.
I’m also really pleased to share the launch of Care & a Cuppa — a gentle, supportive home‑visit service offering companionship, a warm chat, wellbeing check‑ins, light help at home and pet care. From £22 per hour, this sits alongside my regular walks, drop‑ins, cat visits and small‑animal care.
I’m sharing my updated price list so everything is clear and transparent.
Thank you for supporting a small, soulful business where pets are treated like family. Your kindness means more than you know.
Warmly,
Lucy 🐾
