Cotswold Animal Services

Cotswold Animal Services Home from home animal care. I am passionate about all animals and outdoor country life having owned dogs and horses over my lifetime.

Cotswold Animal Services provides home from home care for your animals, we are a family home first and foremost with two dog savvy children (9 & 13) who have grown up an integral part of all that we do here - From offering doggy daycare here in our home, to boarding and dog walking. We believe in providing a loving and safe home for your dogs when they are with us with an emphasis on their individ

ual needs and exceptional quality care. I am of course fully licensed and insured to offer your pets these services - Canine first aid trained and DBS checked for your peace of mind. My love for animals spans over many years with our family business raising free range pigs, goats, chickens and ducks. I founded C.A.S in 2018, we own 3 German Shorthaired Pointers our own and am a 5* licensed home breeder and KC assured breed for GSP's having raised two BEAUTIFUL litters. We own two cats who keep an eye on all proceedings, and a Bearded Dragon called Spike!! If you choose to make a booking with Cotswold Animal Services I will invite you for a complimentary meet and greet to our home where I can asses suitability of your dog, show you our space and answer any questions you may have about the care I provide. Part of my package is to provide you with regular updates and photos so you can be rest assured that your animal is happy in your absence and having fun with their new friends. I offer a variety of care for your animals...

* Home environment daycare - Licensed and insured to offer you care for your dogs in my home for the day so they do not have to spend to long home alone. I do so on a very small scale to allow your dog some gentle socialisation but just as importantly rest and a healthy environment to have time out and relaxation and come home happy and relaxed. I offer a free collection and drop home from Painswick, Edge/Sheepscombe/Pitchcombe. The doggies have exclusive access to the underfloor heating and a hot dog shower for cleaning down on mucky days.

* Home boarding - Licensed and insured to offer a home from home whilst you are away, we all want to know whilst away that our dogs are relaxed and happy when we aren't there to provide them with the love and attention they are used to. I offer home boarding on a very small scale here in my home, to allow for exceptional individual care. We have wonderful sniffy walks on our doorstep, a secure field and a warm cozy house, multiple bed options and a sofa to come home to and snuggle up on with us whilst they board. I will send you regular photos and updates so you don't need to worry about how your dog is settling. The doggies have exclusive acces to the underfloor heating and a hot dog shower for cleaning down on mucky days.

* Small group or individual dog walks. I collect from Painswick/Edge/Sheepscombe/Pitchcombe/Haresfeild areas, I also have access to a private secure field daily.

* Vet or grooming taxi trips - Should your do need taking along to an appointment I would be more than happy to do this for you, I am fully insured to travel your pets and hold a valid DBS check for your peace of mind. I offer a free collection and drop home from Painswick/Edge/Sheepscombe/Pitchcombe, further afield may incur a additional travel fee.

* Puppy pop in's (lunch time let outs/feeding and play) - Ideal for puppy owners who need to juggle a work/home balance and are conscious of leaving your young dog home alone for extended periods. I offer a toilet visit with feeding/ play and enrichment for your puppy to break the day up and keep your training on the right track.

* Canine wedding chaperone - Your dog being a valued member of the family, why wouldn't you want them there on your big day to be part of your photographs to treasure forever. Cotswold Animal Services is licensed and insured to offer home boarding for your dog the night before your wedding in my home, I will then bring your dog along to your wedding venue in time to be art of your photographs or for the ceremony. Taking your dog home again whilst you dance the night away without the worry of who is looking after your dog, collection the next day or drop back to your venue can be arranged.

* Feline - I offer cat sitting from your home whilst you are away. Many cats find a cattery an unnatural and stressful environment. We all know how much our cats thrive on their routine and familiar environments so I will visit your cats in your home and provide them their care and home comforts as you would do on a daily basis.

* Equine - I offer care in your home for your horses/ponies whilst you are away, your horses routine can remain the exact same so your horses aren't unsettled and you do not need to return from your break to a mountain of pooh picking!

* Chicken sitting from your home whilst you are away, let me pop in once or twice a day to let your hens out...clean up after them and feed and freshen up their home and check they are safe and secure from the pesky fox!

📣 Booking Fees and Cancellation Policy – A Polite Reminder

Dear clients,

I’d like to take a moment to address an important matter that directly impacts how I can continue to provide loving and reliable care for your dogs. Recently, I’ve experienced several short-notice cancellations, and I wanted to kindly remind everyone of how this affects my small business.

🔹 My Commitment to You
When you book with me, I reserve that date especially for your dog, often months or even a year in advance. This means I turn away numerous other inquiries and carefully plan my personal life, holidays, and even family events around your booking. I’m dedicated to providing a home-from-home experience for your dogs, ensuring their comfort while you’re away.

🔹 The Impact of Cancellations
Short-notice cancellations are incredibly challenging for my small business. Beyond losing income for that time slot, I’ve already invested significant effort in:

Discussing your dog’s needs
Raising invoices
Conducting meet-and-greets, trial days, and settling-in sessions
Responding to inquiries from others who I’ve had to turn away
Filling a canceled slot at the last minute is often not possible, and re-advertising takes additional time and effort.

🔹 Cancellation Policy
To protect my ability to provide this service, I kindly remind all clients of the following:
1️⃣ Booking fees are non-refundable. This is outlined in my Terms and Conditions (T&Cs), which you agree to when completing your registration form.
2️⃣ One Month's Notice Required: Cancellations must be made in writing with at least one month’s notice for boarding. If less notice is given, the full amount for the booking will still be payable. This allows me a small window to attempt to fill the space.
3️⃣ While I will try to accommodate date changes as a gesture of goodwill, this is not guaranteed. Last-minute changes often create extra work and aren’t always feasible.

🔹 Transparency
My T&Cs are always available on my website, included in your booking fee invoice, and sent with every reminder. I strive to ensure everything is clear to avoid any misunderstandings.

🔹 A Thank You to My Supportive Clients
I deeply appreciate all of my clients who understand and respect these policies. Your support allows me to focus on providing the best care for your beloved dogs while maintaining a reliable and successful business.

Thank you for your continued understanding and support. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Warm regards,
Jess and the gang

Finishing off the year with my favourite London pups 😍 Duly & Rua!!

These guys came to me in November and poor Duly was completely traumatised by the fireworks in our village, so much so he licked his legs raw and we had to arrange for a family member to collect him. It was very upsetting to see the effect fireworks have on animals first hand and not be able to explain to him what was going on or help him.

His wonderful owners wanted to do a keeping in touch day to be sure he would be happy and settled ready for their next holiday with me in 2025. I’m pleased to report he still loves us and we are having the most fantastic time to finish the year. 🎄🐾🎀

If your doggy likes tuggy …. I can HIGHLY recommend Agicore Dog Toys !!! LOOK what came today 🫶🏻 and look at the feedback from Bow’s tail. I bought these to use as an alternative reward during training, also just to play tug as I like to let meet my dogs predatory needs but with me….not self employed!! Bow says “If you buy anything for your dog, I would recommend Octosheep!!” Pawfect 🐑 (not an AD, just a recommendation as these are the best tugs we have ever found!!) dont get me started on the colours 🌈
