Pet sitter recommendations Bristol

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a rabbit-savvy pet-sitter in Bristol- Bedminster? I'm going away for a few days at Christmas and really need to find a pet sitter that I can use then and hopefully in the future for week-end trips.

I'm going to look at boarding as well, but I'm not sure there'll be space and I would prefer someone who could come to the house and water my plants in the summer.

thanks
 
Thanks - her set up looks lovely, but it's too far for me to get to as I don't have a car. I really liked the look of Bramble Bunnies as well, but I just can't get to it. The only boarding places I can find that are actually in Bristol only seem to have large double hutches without any runs, and my three would go mad in a space that small after a couple of days. I've always managed with friends or relatives before, but there's just no-one available this Christmas.

I've seen a few adverts for pet-sitters, although they tend to specialise in dogs. But I might just have to try them out.
 
I use congresbury small animal kennels for boarding but obviously thats a bit far if you don't drive.

I've also used Long Ashton Pet Sitters who have come to my house, they cover parts of Bristol so Bedminster should be ok as its not far from Long Ashton anyway. They haven't looked after a lot of buns before but they were aware of the signs to look out for and coped with my nine buns and 2 piggies so your trio should be a doddle.
 
Hi,

I'm also going away over christmas and am having the same problem! Our puppy goes into daycare when we are both out and the woman who looks after her is fantastic - she doesn't do home visits but i am going to ask her if she can recommend anyone as she has lots of petsitting contacts in bristol! So I'll let you know if i find anyone.

In the future i would always be happy to look after your buns for you as I live in stockwood, so not that far from bedminster :)
