The Pet Aunty

The Pet Aunty As much as we all like to be there 24 hours a day for our beloved pets unfortunately that is not always an option so I'm here to fill in the gaps.

Dog Boarding licence number: AW021 My name is Natalie and I have lived in Market Harborough for over 20 years. Ever since I was a small child I have had a natural affinity with animals whether big or small, cat or snake. I used to spend my holidays as a child on a farm where I helped to maintain housing, feeding, grooming and the birthing of all the different animals. I also volunteered at Leicest

ershire Wildlife Hospital for 3 years where I was known as The Hedgehog lady. I have my CRB check following over ten years in the childcare sector. As much as I enjoyed my time at Nursery my heart has always belonged to animals. I have spent many years looking after family and friends pets and have become very close to them all. I personally have a cat, a snake and a chameleon. Sadly over the years I have lost a dog, cats, rats, mice, ferrets and rabbits. Although this made me very sad it has made my love of all animals even stronger. As a result I have decided to start this business to offer my care and knowledge to everyone. If you are unable to be there 24 hours a day let me come and be your pets aunty. I can do all the fun, messy and practical things that Aunts enjoy doing with their nieces and nephews. After all, pets are family too. As well as dog walking I will also be providing in-house animal sitting for all pets - even spiders, I will happily feed them but will be unable to hold them due to a fear of them haha. This includes feeding your pets up to twice a day and staying with them for half an hour to play with them, change bedding etc. This includes outside pets such as guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens and ducks. All of the animals in the photos on my website are pets that I have had the honour of looking after over the past several years. When joining my expanding family I will visit each of you at home and go through the enrolment form to gather as much information about your beloved pet as possible. I have Liability Insurance to help put your mind at ease knowing that your family member will be well taken care of with no hidden surprises. The area I will be covering for now is Market Harborough, Lubenham, Great Bowden and Little Bowden. My dog boarding licence number is AW021.

Would you like your dog walked and groomed before you get home from work? Get in touch with Alex directly and she can help organise it for you

🐾🫧 The Plot Thickens 🫧🐾

This gorgeous girl thought she was just out for her usual walk. But it turns out her dad had been plotting with Aunty Natalie and Auntie Alex. So, rather than dropping her home, she was dropped off for a clip and style.

Doesn't that just sound easier? Get in touch with Alex and then she can help organise the same for you.

Availability next Monday afternoon and Friday. Get in touch to book in

Do you want help managing your dog's coat?

Washing, drying, brushing and maintaining your dogs coat is not the reason you bought your dog. You bought your dog for the fun play time, the companionship and the walks.

So it is understandable that bathing and brushing the dog is not the top of the list of things to do this weekend.
Let me help with that. I have spaces in Market Harborough (not far from the town center) or Billesdon (by Buttercups Teamroom) throughout the week. I'm even happy to do a meet and greet and then collect them from home, whislt you're at work.

Get in touch today and we can chat about what will make your life easier, so you can focus on the fun part of owning a dog.

Our beautiful Bobby and Singer have had beautiful babies! They are Flemish Giant Rabbits, so not your average sized rabbits.

We are putting out feelers to see is there is anyone in the area that would be interested in adopting any of these heartbreakers. They are 14 days old, so not quite ready for going to new homes just yet. But that gives you time to properly prepare for them. We don't currently know genders, so please consider this before you fall in love with a specific one.

There is one that is a little behind in terms of size, but we have monitored this from the beginning and our local vet is happy they are healthy, just in need of some extra TLC. There is nothing to suggest that they would need an extra special home at the moment, but we will continue to monitor this.

Group photos, individual photos and photos of mum and dad are below. Video's in the comments because I can't get Facebook to allow me both in this post.

Get in touch with Chris to discuss if you are interested.

18th July!! The day you've been waiting for!!

Do you live in Market Harborough? We have an important date for your diaries. 18th July!

From Friday 18th July there will be availability for bath and brush, full groom, nail trim and deshed services... IN MARKET HARBOROUGH!
Some breeds and sizes will not be able to access these appointments at the moment, due to the nature of the current set up, but we will explain that on booking and talk through options. For now, these appointments will most likely be at Buttercups Tearoooms where we have been been based already.

This also means that if you access The Pet Aunty daycare/walking services, we can make arrangements around your existing slots. Contact Alex first to check her availability.

With the school holidays soon upon us, this also means more availability in general! So get in touch to book in.

It is less than 4 weeks away!!!

Looking and smelling beautiful!!

🐾🫧 "When was her last groom?"🫧🐾

This beautiful lady has been a The Pet Aunty dog since she was a teeny puppy!! She is well and truly family. It has been quite a while since she was groomed, so I brought her up for a deshed and tidy.
I think it is fair to say it was due. She looks much sleeker now and will feel much better with that undercoat out.
We love you Miss!

We all love our pets, but sometimes things go wrong and they need vet support. This can be costly. There is no way to sugar coat that.
We know of this charity and their volunteers paying in the thousands for animals, sometimes out of their own pockets. We have worked with them in many different ways over the years and want to show our support. A lot of what they do cannot be shared on Facebook because of the sensitive nature of the cases. So wanted to share this JustGiving page in the hopes that some of our wonderful extended family might be able to donate small amount in support of their work 🧡

Iʼm raising money to support animals. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.
