Hop-It Holidays (Derby)

About our Small Pet Boarding

I have 2 rabbits myself and I know when going on holiday, finding someone to look after them, someone that truly understands rabbits is very difficult. They are not rodents, they need fibre and lots of it they have special exotic requirements others may not be aware of. Hay, pellets, veggies, daily exercise, human contact etc.

We have been running 5 years now.

Located in the Tamworth UK area, professionally care for your rabbits in my home, in the largest possible accommodation, be it a 6 x 2.5ft pen to our largest 50sq feet outdoor cottages which comprise of a 6x4 shed and 4x4 attached pen.

I know some rabbits get along and some do not. All guests are kept in separate housing with singles, bonded pairs and trios kept in secure pens to prevent any problems. My two are neutered and fully vaccinated so no unwanted surprises when you return but as I intend to keep all guests away from each other that shouldn't be a problem.

Accommodation:

I offer the the biggest accommodation for the duration of their stay so they are happy and healthy and will get daily exercise, plenty of room to flop and eat. Please bring them in a pet carrier for their travel time. Please ensure you bring your pets in suitable pet carriers.

We have 3 types of accommodation:
Outdoors:
6 x 4 sheds with 4x4 attached pens for 24 hour garden access (Cottages)
6 x 2 hutches with pens
Indoors:
Pens ranging from 6 x 2.5ft to 7 x 4 ft.

We do not use cages for rabbits or guinea pigs unless you bring your own for Guineas, birds or small animals such as hamsters.

Exercise:

Cottages have 24 hour garden access
Outdoor hutches have access to large pens everyday.
Indoors pens are large enough so that garden time is not needed fully and are in fully air conditioned rooms.
