About us

Beverley Cornthwaite - I am the Owner

My name is Beverley Cornthwaite and along with my Husband Andy and our 3 children, we live and farm arable and sheep and run the boarding kennels here at Icknield Farm.

I worked in kennels as a teenager then trained as a veterinary nurse for 41/2 years, before I  set up Mrs Doolittles pet sitters in 2001, and then the old pastures boarding kennels in 2006 and the grooming a few years later. 

I choose to only have a few larger kennels which means we have more time to spend with each dog and to work with the owners to make each dogs stay is a happy one!

Along side myself I have a team of full time and part time experienced kennel workers, that are always happy to help.
