Dog boarding and day care in Birmingham, area by area
Birmingham's six listed dog care businesses are spread across five of the page's six areas: Birmingham city centre & Digbeth, Edgbaston & Harborne, Kings Heath & Moseley, Handsworth & Perry Barr and Hall Green & Acocks Green. This guide indexes each one so you can start with the area closest to you before reading the fuller detail in our choosing guide.
By area
- Birmingham city centre & Digbeth – one listing: Gabs Dogs, a small-dogs-only day care run on a membership basis.
- Edgbaston & Harborne – one listing: Fur Family Pets, offering home boarding and day care for up to four dogs.
- Kings Heath & Moseley – two listings: Bailey's Dog Care Services and PetStay – West Midlands South.
- Selly Oak & Northfield – no listed business at the time of research.
- Handsworth & Perry Barr – one listing: Bow's Buddies Pet & Taxi Services.
- Hall Green & Acocks Green – one listing: Au'roar'a, combining boarding, day care and training.
Why Selly Oak & Northfield has no listing
Birmingham City Council's own register does hold licensed operators inside Selly Oak & Northfield's postcodes, but none could be published here because no phone number could be found for any of them despite a dedicated search, which this site's own rules require before a business is listed. That is a research gap in what could be publicly confirmed, not evidence that nothing operates there; anyone in that area is better off calling the council directly for its current list of licensed home boarders, or asking neighbours and local dog-owning groups for a recommendation in the meantime.
Kings Heath & Moseley has the most choice
Kings Heath & Moseley is the only area with two listings, giving a choice between Bailey's Dog Care Services as a direct home boarder and PetStay – West Midlands South as a network matched to a local carer. Every other area with a listing has exactly one option, so it is worth reading the full details on that one entry, and its stated coverage, rather than assuming a neighbouring area's business will also reach you or offers exactly the same kind of care.
Coverage often reaches beyond one area
Several of Birmingham's six businesses state coverage stretching well beyond their own area: Bailey's Dog Care Services covers Kings Heath, Moseley, Stirchley and into Solihull, and PetStay – West Midlands South states coverage across roughly the B13 to B17 and B28 to B31 postcode areas, plus parts of Bromsgrove and Redditch. So a business listed under one area on this page may well be worth calling even if you live in a different one, including Selly Oak & Northfield — always confirm coverage of your own specific postcode directly with the business before assuming either way.
