My bunnies have just returned again from an amazing stay with Amanda, she takes such good care of Jasper and Nancy when I'm away, I can go away in ease that they are being looked after and loved as much as I love them. I look forward to the daily updates while I'm away and the gorgeous photos. I was delayed returning home and Amanda was brilliant allowing them to stay an extra night last minute. Highly recommend Destination Whiskers.

We took our fur baby Cookie to Amanda only a few weeks after losing his brother Fernando for the first time and Amanda and her family were so lovely. Amanda sent daily photos and updates on how Cookie was coping and made us feel at ease. I've already booked in his next visit and next year's visits too. I'm really happy I found Amanda, I would not take my little boy to anyone else now I've found Destination Whiskers, this will now be his foster home whenever we need to go away.

5 From Christine Frost on

Amanda welcomed the munch bunch (clover, willow and oak) with lots of love. They warmed to her quickly and have clearly had a lovely weeks holiday! Thankyou Amanda for the lovely updates and photos. ❤️ 🐰

5 From Nina Didelot on

I'm really happy with the amount of care and love Destination Whiskers has given my bunny while I've been on holiday. I also received daily photos and updates which I really appreciate, and my bunny seems to have enjoyed himself at his stay. I will use this service again, and I would highly recommend to anyone!

5 From Michael shaw on

Amanda is very welcoming and assuring with updates everyday which is appreciated. She cares for you animals like they are her own. Will be using her from now on for future boarding holidays.

Took our rabbit to stay with Amanda after moving to the area. We wanted to see if she liked it as she is a very spoilt house rabbit and not used to being in a cage at all. The room the rabbits are in is lovely and full of everything you could possibly need for a rabbit. The cages are very big in both height and width and they get plenty of time outside cage. Amanda sent lots of pictures of muffin to us over the 2 nights she was there. Safe to say muffin enjoyed her vacation with Amanda and is already booked in for when we go on holiday. So glad we found this little gem of a place.

5 From Vicky on

There aren't enough words to describe how incredibly loving and caring Amanda was to our boys. We were so nervous who to leave them with whilst we went away to get married but from the first message I knew Amanda was going to be a perfect foster mum to our babies. Lennie and Patrick are use to lots of attention, human interaction and being able to explore … Destination Whiskers offered all of this. When we dropped the boys off at their holiday home we knew they would be pampered and happy, loved and have the attention they required. Everyday we got photo updates and messages of what they've been doing and how they are getting on, this made our holiday better knowing they were happy and settled. I love that the boys are cuddled everyday, have their fresh food and lots of exercise everyday. The boys will definitely be returning for another holiday. What a wonderful, genuinely kind and loving lady. We can't thank you enough!

5 From Chloe Taylor on

Our pet Fluffy stayed with Amanda, Destination Whiskers for 8 days. Lovely set up, there is indoor and outdoor play area, hatches were spacious so we knew that Fluffy would be happy staying there. We had daily updates with cute pictures which gave us peace of mind that she's been looked after. Amanda was very welcoming and easy to speak to. We will definitely bring fluffy back. Thanks for everything

5 From Natalija Smith on

Our two baby guinea pigs had a wonderful weekend at Destination Whiskers. It was the first time we had left them with someone and it was clear that they were very well looked after. My daughter was quite upset at the idea of leaving them behind, but Amanda was so lovely, sending us reassuring daily photographs and messages. It was obvious that she had spent a lot of time with our piggies because she described their personalities perfectly. Our girls will definitely be back at ‘The Piggy Hotel' in the future.

5 From Nicola on

Wow what a beautiful lady!! I definitely wouldn't go anywhere else. My 2 bunnies absolutely loved it and had loads of fun. I've already booked in for my next holiday.

5 From Jen on

I choose to use destination whiskers for a long term stay for my rabbit Tyrian. I was anxious about leaving him with anyone as he is used to a pampered life style and lots of attention! After seeing the destination whiskers Instagram I enquired and was immediately put at ease, i recieved a form to fill in about Tyrians routine and preferences and could tell that he would be taken good care of. I love that Tyrian's care is personalised as his favourite food, toys, hutch and play area preferences are all considered. I recieve regular updates and photos which show me he's enjoying his time there. I appreciate all the care and attention destination whiskers takes and would recommend to anyone!

5 From Harriet on

This was my first time using Destination Whiskers for my 2 bunnies and I would highly recommend. The set up Amanda has is amazing, I knew my bunnies would be well looked after. The hutches are incredibly spacious and they always had time to play outside the hutch with plenty of toys and things to chew, also runs outside for the bunnies. While I was on holiday I got daily updates and photos to put my mind at ease that my bunnies had settled. Can't recommend enough xx

5 From Gemma Rowntree on

Our house bunnies were so well looked after by Amanda at Destination Whiskers I was more worried they had had so much fun they wouldn't want to come home :) the set up was so lovely and Amanda took time to understand their different needs and preferences, the love and care she gave them was wonderful. We will definitely use Destination Whiskers again in the future.

5 From Caroline on

Amanda was a great with our bunny when he stayed at destination whiskers when we went on holiday. He was very well looked after and had a very large spacious hutch and had regular access to a play room with toys, bunny bed,castles,mini tipi, forage box etc, which was all indoors in the house. Everything was very very clean and he was kept an eye on regularly and played with and had lots of interaction. Amanda was excellent as our bunny had not stayed there before, she updated us very regularly with messages on how he was getting on and sent us some lovely photos of him. It really put our minds at rest and we could enjoy our holiday knowing he was in good hands and well looked after. Our bunny had access to lovely greens and food and lots of water as it was very hot when we were away and the room was well ventilated and there was fans for all the bunnies. The bunnies had the chance to go outside in the garden in secure runs which had toys and castles in them for them to play around with. Amanda was very kind and caring and you knew how much she loved rabbits and animals and loved her job, she was very accommodating and helpful and reassuring. I would not hesitate in sending our bunny to her again as I know what fantastic care and attention he would get and I am sure he enjoyed his holiday just like us and I think he was a little sad to leave.

5 From Clare and Peter mitchinson on

We highly recommend Destination Whiskers. Our two bunnies had such a great 10 days there. It's a wonderful set up! We were a little nervous at the thought of leaving them somewhere new however Amanda really goes above and beyond. She treated Rocky and Biscuit like her own. The daily updates, including photos were just lovely. I wouldn't want to leave them anywhere else! Thanks again.

5 From Claire on

We had our rabbit stay with Amanda for a few days, this was her first time being away from home, so we were a bit worried. Amanda was amazing!!!!! She updated us everyday about Lilly and what she had been upto. I would definately recommend Destination Whiskers

5 From Debbie Short on

Amanda has a fantastic set up, our rabbit Buttons had a lovely week being very well cared for indeed.He had play time out of his hutch and fresh grass to eat and exercise on in the run in the garden. The communication was excellent and we were sent lots of photos of him bumbling around looking very relaxed. Highly recommend Destination whiskers for your fur babies.

Left Pip with Amanda for 5 days. The care and standard of care was nothing short of exemplary. Amanda treats all residents as if they were her own, always shared updates with you along the way. Would highly recommend.

5 From Chris Docherty on

Flopsy had the best time on his little holiday. We got lots of daily updates and pictures. There's so much enrichment for bunnies and guinea pigs alike. We will definitely book our Flopsy in again when needed. Thank you so much!

5 From Sally-Anne on

Excellent service and 2 happy lil piggies. Highly recommended

5 From Lindsey young on

We booked our bunny in for a one night stay and I was so worried about leaving him for the night but from the moment we arrived to drop Tommy I knew he would be fine. I was sent regular updates and photos on how he was doing and Tommy was treated like an absolute prince whilst he was there. Drop off and pick up was very easy, Amanda made us all feel welcome. We will definitely be rebooking in the future. Thank you so much🐰🤍

5 From Emily on

Destination whiskers.......FABULOUS! from start to finish, very professional, good communication and caring, I loved how she addressed all the furries as guests. Beautiful set up, loads of space, toys and company. Amanda sent me loads of photos and updates which put my mind at rest. They're already booked in another twice.

5 From Sue & mike on

From booking to arriving and then to leaving I can honestly say that Amanda was absolutely amazing. She looked after our two bunnies for a week while we were away. The boarding hutches were fantastic, clean and tidy and they had access to daily excercise and snacks in a beautiful room fully equipped with toys and enrichment activities to keep them entertained. Amanda sent us plenty of photos and updates to show what they were doing while we were away and treated them like her own. She is brilliant I highly recommend her and we will definitely use her serviced again.

5 From Nikki on

Amanda was amazing throughout the weekend my fur babies stayed with her! I was so nervous however she kept in contact with me and sent me loads of updates and pictures! I love how they were treated like they were her own was great to see my guinea pigs being so cared for! Have already booked in again!

5 From Sophie on

My guinea pig Nutella loves destination whiskers! Nutella has recently just came back from her 5th stay at destination whiskers.Destination Whiskers treats Nutella like her own. Always being updated with photos of Nutella and messages of how she's getting on. Destination Whiskers spoils Nutella and makes her so happy! Wouldn't send Nutella anywhere else 🐹🥰

5 From Libby Sturdy on

My Bunny Belle boarded with Amanda at Destination Whiskers over the New Year holiday. She couldn't have been more cared for. From my initial enquiry about availability to her actual stay Amanda always kept me fully updated. My Belle had a lovely holiday too at Destination Whiskers, I actually think she didn't want to come home 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️. Amanda makes the saftey, comfort,wellbeing and entertainment of all the pets in her care her priority, there are so many toys and enrichment to entertain the guests. I just felt Belle was safe and getting well looked after which brought me great peace of mind. For indoor bunnies “Destination Whiskers” is like a 5 star hotel 🤣. Thank you Jo & Belle 🐰ðŸ'ž

5 From Jo Murray on

Our 2 rabbits had a lovely stay at Destination Whiskers for 3 nights over new year and I can't recommend it highly enough! Amanda was very caring and I felt as though our boys were very well looked after. No hesitation in recommending and we will use again. Thank you 🐰🐰

5 From Sarah on

Oreo and Simba stayed for 3 nights and had an amazing time! Not sure they wanted to come home , destination whiskers were great with them lots of enrichment and attention ! We really loved the photos posted of them throughout the stay which makes leaving them a lot easier! We will definitely be returning , thank you so much!

5 From Esme Watson on

Destination Whiskers looked after our bunny, Coco, for a week in December. We were sent pics of her eating and generally having a fun time. We also were sent comments keeping us updated on how she was doing. Would highly recommend Destination Whiskers to send your pet to.

5 From Helen Price on

Excellent service and really cute photos of our pets as well as regular updates on how they were getting on. We were able to have a great Christmas with family out of town with absolutely no worries about our rabbit and 3 guinea pigs, very safe in the knowledge that they were being well looked after. Cannot recommend enough!

5 From Olympia Sonitis on

Absolutely wonderful, couldn't recommend more highly. Guinea pigs stayed for a week over summer and it was like a home from home. Will definitely return

5 From Becky on

Our rabbit had a great stay at destination whiskers. Really well organised, easy drop off and pick up and Snuggles was obviously well looked after judging by the pictures!! Highly recommend. 🐰🐰

5 From James Walmsley on

My guinea pigs recently had a stay at DW and I couldn't have been more happy or reassured that my boys were in the best place for them. We have used other boarders and sitters and have been a bit disappointed or had concerns. DW is different as Amanda is very professional and treats your pets like they are her own. My wishes about their care were listened to and I came back to very happy contented piggies! I was updated with photos and how they were doing. I wouldn't think twice about them staying there again. Plus, my pets also get to have a lovely holiday!

5 From Claire on

THE BEST BUNNY BOARDING!!! 🐰❤️ My fiancé and I were so nervous leaving Luna whilst we went away due to her many ailments and sensitivities 😬 We have been disappointed and let down with the level of care she has received in the past… but we needn't have worried. Destination Whiskers is simply wonderful! 🥰 Luna stayed for a fortnight whilst we went to Tunisia and I am almost certain that her holiday was better than ours! 😁 The level of care Luna received in this time was honestly above and beyond our hopes and expectations. She was treat as part of the family! (There was even a tear or two when her stay came to an end) 🥹❤️ We are so grateful to have found Destination Whiskers! The endless toys and treats, the cuddles, the outdoor enrichment, the compassion for Luna's medical needs; the list of things we LOVE about Destination Whiskers is exhaustive 😊❤️ There's no wonder that Luna's response to us collecting her was to stamp her foot in temper for the next 48 hours! 🙄😂 Thank you once again for EVERYTHING! Luna cannot wait to see you all again soon!! 🐰❤️

My guinea pigs went twice during the summer holidays and they loved it there! I would definitely recommend 🙂
