Adoption
We have lots of lovely bunnies and guinea pigs looking for new homes. All of our animals deserve a second chance and a family to call their own. Our rabbits are health checked, neutered and vaccinated before they leave us and we offer life-long support should you need it. If you have space in your home for a couple of extra residents, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We have bunnies and guinea pigs of all shapes and sizes so hopefully have the right match for your family!
Pet Services
To help fund the rescue, we offer boarding for small animals (e.g. rabbits and guinea pigs) while you go on holiday. All animals are kept in minimum 6ft hutches overnight with access to runs on grass in a secure paddock during the day. We also offer various dog walking and pet sitting services. We can easily adapt our care to suit your pet's needs and are happy to give medication, etc. Our boarding spaces fill up fast - particularly in school holidays - so please get in touch soon! Please visit www.furlockholmes-services.co.uk to find out more about our second business and how it fundraises for the rescue.
Animal Visits
We take our specially-trained team of rabbits and guinea pigs (and occasionally ponies, ferrets, bantam chickens, snails and more) into nursing homes, schools and other residential/day care places. During an animal visit session, participants are able to have a small animal on their lap for handling. They are encouraged to interact with the animal and groom/feed/talk to the animal and we find this is incredibly beneficial for all participants. As well as this, we offer educational visits to schools and groups.

Pet Sitting
As one of our many attempts to fund the work of the rescue (and also because of our crazy love for animals!) we offer a Pet Sitting service in the local area. This involves us popping into your house once or twice a day to feed, water, clean, groom and provide company for your pets. Our Pet Sitting team is made up of possibly the most animal-loving, passionate and dedicated people in the area. They are incredibly experienced and reliable. We are also fully insured and DBS checked.
​
How does it work?
When you first get in touch, we will find out more about the dates you need a Pet Sitter and the pets you need looking after. We will then allocate a member of our team to you, so you and your pets have consistency and build trust with that one person. Your Pet Sitter will visit you and your pets before you go away, to ensure they know the routine and that your pets are comfortable with them. Following this, they will carry out the visits to your pets as/when required and will keep you updated with photos if you wish! When you pay the invoice sent to you by the Pet Sitter, a percentage will then be sent back to the rescue to aid our fundraising efforts.
​
Costs
We charge £8.50 for one visit per day, or £15 for two visits. Each visit lasts up to half an hour.
If you require someone to stay in your house overnight or to keep your pet company for the day, please get in touch to discuss a custom quote.
