Dog boarding and day care in Guildford, area by area
Guildford's ten listed dog boarders and day cares are spread unevenly across the town's four areas, from a strong showing in Cranleigh to no published business at all in Burpham & Merrow.
| Area | Businesses listed |
|---|---|
| Guildford town centre | 3 |
| Burpham & Merrow | 0 |
| Godalming | 1 |
| Cranleigh | 6 |
Cranleigh is by far the strongest area
Six of the ten listings are in Cranleigh: Croft Doggy Daycare and Doggy Digs Cranleigh, both home boarders that also run day care; Tazmanian Tails and Surrey and Sussex Dog Trainer, home boarders (the latter combining boarding with residential dog training); We Love Pets Cranleigh, which arranges home boarding through a network of carers rather than boarding at one address; and K9 Development Centre, which holds separate day care and home boarding licences across sites in Cranleigh, Shamley Green and Ewhurst. All six are licensed by Waverley Borough Council, whose register covers Godalming and Cranleigh alongside Farnham and Haslemere.
Guildford town centre
Guildford town centre has three home boarders — Hound and About, Paws4aWalk and Simone's Doggy Creche — all licensed by Guildford Borough Council. None publishes a price list, and none has a star rating shown on the register source used for this directory; see our council licences guide for why. Paws4aWalk also covers cat sitting and small-animal boarding alongside dogs, which is worth asking about if you keep more than one kind of pet.
Godalming: one business
Godalming has a single listing, Burntwood Kennels, a family-run boarding kennels and cattery near Dunsfold trading under a Godalming postal address, holding a 5-star Waverley licence for both dogs and cats. Research for this batch found that most Waverley-licensed businesses checked for the Godalming area turned out to be based in Farnham or Haslemere instead, outside this directory's coverage, or could not be placed with a confirmed address, which is why this area shows only one listing rather than several.
Burpham & Merrow: none published
No business is currently published for Burpham & Merrow. A home boarder was found on the council register for this area during research, but with no confirmed phone number it could not be listed, since this directory only publishes a business once its contact details are confirmed. If you are looking specifically in Burpham or Merrow, it is worth calling Guildford Borough Council directly and asking for its current list of licensed home boarders in that area, since a small, newly licensed operator can take time to appear in research like this, and a phone number that could not be confirmed one week may well be findable the next.
Across all four areas, only Doggy Digs Cranleigh publishes a price list; see our Guildford prices guide for what it charges and why the rest quote by phone instead.
