FULL BIO

We met at university studying criminology and sport science and after we graduated we started our own business called Rent A Bod which is a bespoke property maintenace business based in Merseyside in 2006. Then in 2007 we saw a gap in the market to start the small animal hotel whereby we look after small animals such as rabbits, guinea-pigs, rats and birds etc while people go away on holiday. We are now in the process of building our newest business which is a luxury cattery that will be the first in the UK to have built in web-cams and microphones.
