Dog boarding and day care prices in Fareham and Gosport
Prices are as the businesses published them when we last checked (September 2026). They can change without notice, so confirm them when you book.
Twenty-one dog boarders, day cares and kennels are listed across Fareham, Gosport, Wickham & Southwick and Bishop's Waltham, and only one of them, 4 Muddy Paws, publishes a price on its own site. Every other business here quotes once it knows your dog's size, temperament and the dates you need, so this page cannot give a townwide price list — only what one business states, plus a steer on how to ask the rest.
Published prices, September 2026

|---|---|---|
| 4 Muddy Paws, home boarding in Fareham | Overnight boarding, per dog per night | £40 |
| 4 Muddy Paws | Day care, per day | £30 |
| 4 Muddy Paws | Trial stay | £10 |
Why so few businesses publish a price
Fourteen of the twenty-one listings here are licensed home boarders — individuals who board dogs in their own home rather than running a premises — and none of them besides 4 Muddy Paws states a rate online. That fits how home boarding is usually sold locally: a call or message to check what a boarder currently has room for, with a price that depends on the dog's size and the length of the stay. The seven premises-based businesses here (two day cares, two boarding kennels and two combined day-care-and-boarding kennels, plus the RSPCA's Stubbington Ark) are just as quiet on price online, so ring or message ahead of a visit rather than expecting a published rate.
What to ask when you call
- The price per night for boarding, or per day for day care, and whether a second dog from the same household costs less.
- Whether bank holidays or peak dates such as Christmas carry a surcharge, and by how much.
- Whether a trial or assessment visit is charged separately before a first full stay or day, as 4 Muddy Paws' own £10 trial-stay price shows one way this can work.
- What is included for that price — feeding, walks and any extras such as a grooming wash.
- For a home boarder, how many dogs they take at once, since several of the licences on this page cap that number.
Ring around more than one business before booking: with so few published prices, the only way to compare Fareham, Gosport, Wickham & Southwick and Bishop's Waltham on cost is to ask directly.
