Friends For Pets

Friends For Pets Friends for Pets was set up in the Cheddar area of Somerset in 2008. Lucy manages the Brecon Pet Sitting and Dog Walking Team. Lucy moved back to Brecon in 2021.

We are a pet sitting company offering a range of very flexible pet care services including:-
Dog Walking
Overnight dog boarding
Doggy day care
Adventure Walks
Cat Sitting
Pet Visits to your home
House Sitting
Poo Collection Within a couple of months of starting up, rapid growth of the company meant a couple of extra pairs of hands were needed to help with the increasing number of clients. This gro

wth continued until we had around 85 pet carers covering a large area of the South West. This was proving very difficult to manage from one central office and standards of service were slipping so it was decided to franchise the company so each area could be managed by a person local to the area who could keep the highest standards of pet care and allow a more controlled growth of the company. Each team has a small, long-standing team of pet carers that become extended members of our client’s families. Becca is exceptionally picky with who is awarded a franchise and only looks for animal-focused franchise owners who are driven by the same ethics and standards as herself making us stand apart from other franchised pet companies. A few years on and we have developed an Award-Winning team of expert managers and pet carers who offer the highest standard of Pet Care that we can to local communities. She lives in Brecon with her two fur babies, Maisie and Alfie the miniature dachshunds. She has always been an animal lover, having grown up in the Brecon area with cats and dogs in her family, as well as guinea pigs, hamsters, fish and even terrapins at one point! Her background is in law and she qualified as a solicitor in 2010. In 2018, when Lucy lived in Bristol and was looking for day care options for Maisie and Alfie, she came across Friends for Pets. She ended up having a conversation with Becca which turned out to be life changing – it came at a time when Lucy was feeling totally disillusioned with working full time in an office environment. She knew she wanted to do something else so when Becca mentioned that an opportunity had come up in the Bristol team she jumped at the chance, and the rest is history! The Brecon team is managed by Lucy and Elen. We now have an absolutely amazing pet care offering in the Brecon area. All of our pet carers have close relationships with their clients and their pets and the team really does aim to be part of your extended family! Lucy, Elen and the team can offer dog walking, overnight home from home dog boarding, doggy day care, pet visits, overnight house sitting and other services tailored to the needs of you and your pet. We are always looking for excellent pet carers to join the team, so if you are interested in a role with us please apply via our website. Please do get in contact with either of us with any questions or for further information about how we can help you.

The Great British Entrepreneur Awards

Becca said to me ‘I don’t have any regrets in life, but when I was a finalist for the GBEA last time I really wish I went, it’s such an incredible event and once in a life time experience’ so when she found out that she was a finalist again this year, she jumped at the opportunity.

Becca had such an amazing evening and met so many inspirational people. A huge congratulations to all the finalist and winners from last night!

A special thank you to Helen from Blue eyes bow ties for James’ awesome handmade bow tie.

Becca doesn’t quite realise how amazing she is and how much support and guidance she gives to all her franchisees, they are family to her and she goes above and beyond to help and support wherever she can, personally and professionally. We are all so proud of her and on behalf of all the franchisees thank you so much for everything you do for us! Here is to many more years in franchising and making sure animal welfare is at the heart of everything we do.

🎈 🌟 Happy 3rd Birthday to us 🌟 🎈

We cannot believe we've been open in Brecon for 3 years! We've met and looked after so many wonderful fur babies (we can't feature them all here, there's just so many 💗).

So a few thank you's:

🐕 to our wonderful customers! It has been a pleasure to work for you for the past 3 years and we love the relationships we build with you all.

🐕 to our current pet carers; Ellie, Wendi, Catrin, Lesley, Siân and Nigel. We couldn't do this without you!

🐕 and of course, to the wonderful furry friends we've made along the way! Cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs and skinny pigs, fish, hamsters, horses and donkeys. We love you all and you're the reason we do what we do!

We love our job and count ourselves incredibly lucky to spend everyday working with animals!

Let's see what the next year brings ❤️

Love Lucy and Elen x

***Flash sale*** We are offering a huge discount on our luxury overnight home from home dog boarding services until 1st October 2024!!! We understand that the cost of living crisis is having a huge impact on people's budgets but we don't want that to mean that dog owners are potentially putting their dogs at risk by using unlicensed dog boarders. Did you know that we are one of the ONLY licensed dog boarders in the area? We are offering these big discounts to encourage people to only use dog boarders who are licensed by Powys County Council and therefore have met the council's rigorous standards. Don't put your beloved pooch at risk by using an unscrupulous unlicensed dog boarder! Contact us today for more information on our amazing rates! We have very limited spaces so don't wait! #friendsforpets #dogslife #doglovers #ffp #homefromhomeboarding #dogsofinstagram #dog #animallovers #licensedboarding
