Dog boarding and day care prices in Barnsley
Prices are as the businesses published them when we last checked (September 2026). They can change without notice, so confirm them when you book.
Twelve dog boarders, home boarders and boarding kennels are listed for Barnsley, and only four of them publish a price on their own site: Noah's Ark Pet Holiday Home, Paw Power Dog Boarding, Chapel House Hounds and Knuckle Dog Services. The rest quote once they know your dog's size, temperament and dates, so the figures below are a floor for what boarding and day care cost locally, not a full price list for the town.

Boarding kennels
Only one of Barnsley's five boarding kennels and cattery premises publishes a price: Noah's Ark Pet Holiday Home in Shafton, at £16.50 a day for dog boarding and £11 a day for cat boarding. Animal Inn, The Cliffe Kennels, Foxholes Animal Hotel and Rob Royd Boarding Kennels & Cattery all quote once they know your dog's size and dates, so call to ask.
Home boarding
Two of Barnsley's seven home boarders publish a day rate. Knuckle Dog Services, in the Penistone area, charges £25 a day for home boarding and £20 a day for day care. Paw Power Dog Boarding, also in the Penistone area, prices by length of stay rather than a flat day rate: £65 for a single night falls to £50 a night once a stay reaches two or more nights, and a second dog from the same household is an extra £20 a night. Chapel House Hounds, in Royston, boards dogs or cats "from" £25, alongside dog sitting from £15 and dog walking at £15 an hour.
Everyone else
The other eight dog boarders and kennels listed for Barnsley, including five of the seven home boarders and four of the five boarding kennels, do not publish a price. This is normal for this niche: a home boarder in particular usually prices around the length of stay, the number of dogs from the same household, and how far it needs to travel, so have your dates and dog's details ready when you call. None of the prices above are guaranteed to include everything: bank holidays, collection, or a second dog from a different household are commonly charged on top elsewhere, so confirm the final total before booking.
