Wheek Away ® (Winner of Lux Magazine 2020 & 2024 Best Herbivore Boarding in the East Midlands & featured in Guinea Pig Magazine!)

"The Dorchester" of the guinea pig world! Our adopted piggies, Veyron & Rosie, have always happily stayed here with excellent care and confidence. Love the webcam, where their true owners, currently living in China, can watch them. Stephanie is dedicated to giving attention to detail to make for a happy holiday.

Our two piggies Frankie and Coco stayed for a couple of days with Stephanie and I can honestly say they had the best time! The webcams were a lovely touch and helped us when we were missing them!

We are very protective over our piggies so was so worried about finding the right place for them to stay while we were getting married. We had other things going on and didn't want to have to worry about them also, so when I saw online a place that looked after piggies inside, with 24 hour webcam access and a trained rodentologist I was so happy. During the piggies stay they were really well looked after, their were forms to fill in beforehand that put my mind at ease so all information was shared and I knew they would be happy and cared for if poorly, they even came back with even softer fur after their health check and I was happy to hear how they were :). She also helped us feel at ease allowing us to ask questions and communicate when we wanted and she kept us updated, and it was amazing to see the piggies on webcam whenever we wanted while away! Definitely recommend to anyone!

We have boarded our piggies twice now with Stephanie and wouldn't use anyone else. Stephanie and her husband offer an outstanding service and really look after the animals in their care exceptionally well. Stephanie is very knowledgeable and we felt able to go away and relax knowing that our piggies were in good hands. An added bonus is being able to watch your pets on webcam 24 hours a day. The premises are exceptionally clean and I would definitely recommend Wheek Away. I have seen some terrible boarding services when I was looking for somewhere to board my pets and would encourage anyone to check out a boarding service before use. With Stephanie you have no worries at all. Thank you Stephanie and Tim.

I had never left my guinea pig Joe with pet boarding before and so was nervous about leaving him for the first time, but I found Stephanie very helpful, caring and knowledgeable. Joe was recovering from cystitis and needed daily care and medication. Stephanie really looked after him, gave him medication and weighed him daily. As we were abroad, she sent me a text to tell me he had settled in, had enjoyed a cucumber tea and was now sprawled out resting, which put my mind at rest. I was so grateful in finding a caring and very capable boarding for Joe and would not hesitate to recommend Stephanie and Wheekaway or leave Joe again, as I know he would be looked after very well.

Fantastic holiday home for your pets. Great service and facilities. My piggies (Moomin and Edward) were looked after very well. Stephanie is a very knowledgable rodent Health Advisor; my boys had a health check, grooming and their photo taken during their stay at Wheekaway, which was a nice touch. Wheekaway is now the boys holiday home!

Rolo, Buddie, Sampson, Bertie, Elliott and Teddie had a fantastic holiday at Wheek Away. Steph and Tims care was first class and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Our Piggies will be having another holiday there later in the year. Fabulous set up with lovely knowledgable friendly people. xx

Our 4 guineas stayed at Wheek Away over Easter. All 4 were looked after really well by Stephanie and Tim and the webcams are an added bonus. Will definitely use Wheek Away again. Thank you both.

What a wonderful holiday our little guinea pig gizmo had here. She was truly spoilt, we'll looked after by a very caring and knowledgeable young couple. We had a health check and grooming service and she looked a million dollars and very happy. They spent a lot of time with us giving us advice on guinea pig care which we found very useful. We also found the 24 hr video cam brilliant. We would definitely recommend wheeks away for your pets. A big thank you to Stephanie and husband for a great service.
