Horse Care Services in London, Surrey & Kent - Very Important Pets

    • Horse care services

  • Our friendly and professional horse care services ensure your horse receives all the care and attention he needs while you're away

    • VIPs Horse care services

      As a horse owner, you know that your horse needs a lot of looking after. So when you’re away on holiday or you just need a need break, it’s reassuring to know that someone will, feed and care for your horse with the same love, care and attention as you do.

      At Very Important Pets we have a team of dedicated and experienced horse sitters who provide horse care.

      One of the horse carers from Very Important Pets will meet you and your horse and discuss his full routine and your exact requirements.

      Our horse care service is flexible, so can be adapted to suit your horse’s exact routine and needs.

      We ask that you pay your horse carer travelling expenses calculated at 45p per mile plus all parking, train fares and congestion charges. Travel expenses should be paid directly to them. We’ll always try and find a person that’s closest to you. But it’s worth finding out your Horse carers estimated travel costs before your first meeting.

      Our horse care services include:

      • Morning feed
      • Evening feed
      • Turning out
      • Bringing in
      • Changing rugs
      • Mucking out stables
      • Grooming
      • Watering – both in the stable and paddock

      If you have other pets please check out our range of bespoke pet services.

    • Wendy is wonderful! This was new for us as we have never left our two boys for a week or used a pet sitter before but it could not have been easier. She looked after them beautifully and they were so relaxed and happy when we came home. She kept us updated everyday and we came home to a spotless house. Would love to use her again in the future and will be recommending VIP to our doggy friends!

    • I feel very blessed to have found Vanessa to look after Boo and Lyla when I was away. I came home to two cats who were very pleased to see me, but not at all distressed. In fact were so unbothered by my absence that there was no additional clingy-ness, no night-time shouting (well, no more than usual), and no colds – all of which have happened when I used a different sitting company and been away in the past. Boo and Lyla are Bengals, with high separation issues, and so this was a real win. They were both marginally plumper, relaxed, more playful with each other, and had clearly been very loved and cared for when I was away. Thank you again!

    • Kieran is extremely professional and cares about making sure my cat is happy and safe. I have had Kieran take care of my cat several times, and now I trust him to the extent that I am willing to plan my travel around his availability!

    • Tracey was great! We felt at ease leaving out kitten with her. She came prepared when visited us first and even brought a string to play and connect with your pet. She sent regular updates on the time that we agreed. We had bad experience with the cat sitters from other services, but this time we were 100% satisfied

    • Bea was absolutely fantastic, a wonderful lady, and our dogs took to her straight away. She took very great care of our dogs, and also of me as I was going for a medical procedure and was home alone, she ensured I was on before leaving. We would be delighted to have Bea take care of our dogs again. Many thanks, as we edge close to our 10 years with VIP, I want to thank you for your continued great service.
