Reliable and personalised Pet Care & Pet Transport, in Lichfield & surrounding areas
At First For Pets, we understand that leaving your beloved furry friend behind can be a tough decision. That’s why we offer a unique and personalised home boarding service, ensuring that your dog receives the utmost care and attention in a safe, warm and welcoming environment. Our specially selected host families open their hearts and homes to your dog, providing a home away from home experience that will leave them feeling loved, comfortable, and secure.
We take great care in selecting our host families, ensuring they meet our high standards of care and compassion for dogs. Before your dog’s stay, you will have the opportunity to meet and get to know the host family, giving you peace of mind and confidence that your furry friend will be in the best possible hands. Our host families only have one dog staying at any one time, or up to three from the same household. This way they can treat your dog like a member of their own family, offering the same comforts and routines your dog enjoys in their own home.
First For Pets is proud to hold 5-star rated Animal Boarding licenses across all our host families. We take the responsibility of caring for your dog seriously and adhere to the highest standards of safety, hygiene, and well-being. We invite you to ask to see our licenses, as we are more than happy to showcase our commitment to excellence.
To ensure the well-being and compatibility of all dogs in our care, we kindly ask that your dog meets the following requirements:
Up-to-date Vaccinations: Please ensure that your dog’s vaccinations are current, as this helps maintain a healthy and safe environment for all our canine guests.
Flea and Worming Treatment: Prior to their stay, your dog should be up to date with flea and worming treatments to prevent any discomfort or infestations.
Well-Behaved and Toilet Trained: We welcome dogs who are well-behaved and fully toilet trained. This ensures a harmonious and enjoyable experience for all dogs and host families.
Friendly and Well-Socialised: Dogs who are friendly and well-socialised with other dogs and humans thrive in our home boarding environment. It allows for positive interactions and a sense of camaraderie during their stay.
If your dog meets these criteria, we would be delighted to meet them and welcome them into our First For Pets family.
We understand that your dog’s well-being and happiness are of utmost importance to you. That’s why we encourage you to reach out to us to learn more about our home boarding services. Our team is eager to answer any questions you may have, address your concerns, and provide you with the information you need to make an informed decision. Your dog’s comfort and contentment are our top priorities, and we are committed to ensuring a delightful and worry-free experience for both you and your furry friend.

Well recommended to everyone who wants to take good care of their pets First For Pets is the best Lorraine Pickard2024-06-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very impressed with the service. Kirsty was very thoughtful, professional and efficient. Spent time with our cat and even watered some plants for me. Felt very comforted and reassured our much loved pet was in good hands. Contact whilst we were away was excellent too with regular feedback, photos and videos. Would highly recommend. Leanne Robinson2024-05-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have used First For Pets , namely Eleanor for the first time. She looked after four cats for the last two days and we are very happy with the service she provided. She sent us lovely updates and pictures of our cats and this really put our mind at rest whilst we were away and we can’t thank her enough. We would highly recommend Eleanor and First For Pets. Peter Desveaux2024-05-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently used First For Pets for the first time, with Andrea looking after our five month old kittens, Benji and Willow. We were kept informed how they were doing throughout the time we were away and had multiple photos and videos sent via WhatsApp which helped put us at ease. The kittens were very well looked after and we would use this service again without hesitation. Communication and service is top notch. Thank you so much Andrea and team, you were amazing!! Stephanie Shore2024-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Donna. Geoff and their team are an exceptional group of caring people. Donna was caring for our cats when we were away for a weekend and we saw on Facebook that a cat had been killed on the road near our house. Donna was amazing, she headed straight over and spent ages looking until she found him on the side of the road. She took him to a vet to be scanned and confirmed that it was our beloved cat, Odin. We were totally devastated but Donna was so caring. She arranged for Odin to be cremated and then returned his ashes to us as soon as we got home. Everything was handled with kindness and sensitivity. In addition to the shock and sadness at Odin’s death we were really worried about our other cat, Odin’s brother, as they were so close. The photos and videos Donna sent us of him were so reassuring that he was doing alright. Everything was handled with care and professionalism and we are so grateful to Donna and Geoff. Claire Price2024-03-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A big thanks to Donna who recently looked after Alan & Boomer for two weeks. They had so much fun despite the rain and they even got to go to daycare a few times to play with other dogs, which they loved. Alan has epilepsy so we worry when we leave him, but Donna was brilliant at giving his meds and looked after him when he had a seizure, which is a difficult thing to watch. I think they miss her and keep waiting for her to come back. I have every confidence in her and her team to look after my boys. Highly recommend! Thanks Donna Keith Davies2024-03-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My Pet dog was cared for by Dave and Georgia .

She spends the day playing with her besties and returns home very contented. I’m happy knowing she’s in safe hands and well cared for. I love the video updates I receive throughout the day showing me how much fun she’s having.
