I have taken the difficult decision to pause taking on new customers for the time being. The high demand from my existing customers means that there isn’t the room to accommodate new ones. I will, of course, review the position in the autumn once the main holiday season is finished and will update the website accordingly.

I am, of course, open for business to my existing customers.

I am already FULLY BOOKED for the Jubilee weekend.

If you have fixed your holiday dates for the summer, please let me know as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. August is already pretty busy and I anticipate I will be fully booked up well before the time we’re getting close.

Enjoy the sunshine (while it lasts!!) and take care.

So if you’ve got your holiday dates sorted already, it’s not too soon to let me know. It gives you peace of mind well in advance that your pets will be covered whilst you’re on your holidays!

When are the ‘peak times’? Well it usually follows the school holidays as that’s when more people go away at the same time. For example:

• Late-May half-term: That’s usually the last week of May and the first week of June
• School summer holidays: August, basically!

In addition, September is often a very busy month with all those people not tied to the school holidays looking for a summer break.

If you want to make your 2020 holiday bookings please get in touch through the contact page!

Just to let you know that I’m now fully booked up over the Christmas period.

Best wishes

In the two years since I set up Fluffies, I’ve made over 3200 visits to pets in the Stockport area! That’s a lot of furry hellos!!

I sorted through a whole load of photos for this occasion, yet still came away with the BBC2 furry animal logo. It sums things up nicely though so I’ve gone with it.

Of course, there are plenty of other photos here on the website. We’re also on Facebook and on Instagram, so please subscribe to, and like the pages!

I’d just like to say a huge thanks to all of my customers and let’s crack on with year number 3!!

• October half-term: 21 – 29 October 2017
• Christmas: 20 December 2017 – 2 January 2018
• February half term: 17 – 25 February 2018
• Easter: 30 March – 15 April 2018
• Whitsun (half-term): 26 May – 10 June (3 June for secondary schools) 2018
• Summer holidays: 1 August (25th July for secondary schools) – 2 September 2018

From experience, the second week of Whitsun (when just the primary schools are on holiday) tends to be the busiest week of the year!

As we go into July, things calm down a little bit, although not until the middle of the month! It’s a chance to draw breath and prepare for August!

Pet sitting demand generally follows the school holidays and unsurprisingly August is a busy month. The first couple of weeks are pretty much fully booked up now. There’s some space in the second half of the month, so if you’re planning on getting away then, let me know soon or risk being disappointed.

Happy Bank Holiday!

Well somehow we’ve bucked the trend and this bank holiday hasn’t been bad weather-wise. Let’s hope that’s a good omen for the rest of the day (and not being ‘Summer 2017’!)

Here at Fluffies, well it’s been very busy – kittens, cats, dogs, rats, pygmy goats & budgies all featuring this weekend. Here’s a few of them for you!

Getting booked up

I always recommend to my existing clients to make a booking as soon as they’ve got their dates. Some periods, especially the school holidays, see high demand, and I book up quickly.

As of 1st May I’m FULLY BOOKED for the following dates:

• 6th May – 25th June
• 22nd – 28th July
• 3rd – 19th August
• 7th – 15th October

I’ve already taken my first booking for 2018, so it’s never too early to let me know once you’ve got that holiday planned!

Easter at Fluffies has been VERY busy, I think the first week was fully booked-up by February!

The next big holiday period is the Whitsun break at the end of May. Whilst the secondary schools are out for that week, the Stockport primaries are out for the first week in June as well. Both weeks are busy already, so if you’re planning on needing pet cover, get in touch ASAP!!

After that, it’s the schools summer break in August. One week is already booked up and the other three are filling rapidly. I do my bookings on a first-come first-served basis so don’t leave it too long otherwise we’ll be full.
