United Kingdom guide

Boarding kennels, catteries and pet boarding across the UK

Understanding UK boarding terms

Boarding kennels normally describe accommodation for dogs, while catteries are designed for cats. Pet boarding is the broader term. A provider may also advertise day care or home boarding, so confirm whether the service includes an overnight stay and which animals it accepts.

County, journey and busy travel dates

Use the county or region pages to compare a practical travel radius. School holidays, bank-holiday weekends and Christmas can be busy; ask about availability, arrival and collection windows, deposits and cancellation terms early.

Checks before choosing boarding

Ask for the licence or registration details that apply locally, inspect sleeping and exercise areas where possible, and confirm overnight supervision, vaccination rules, insurance and veterinary arrangements. Requirements differ between boarding types and parts of the UK, so verify the current position with the provider and relevant local authority.
