Dog boarding and day care prices in Harrogate
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-four dog boarders, day cares and kennels are listed for Harrogate, spread across Harrogate town centre & Knaresborough, Ripon & Pateley Bridge, Malton & Pickering, Thirsk & Northallerton and Easingwold & Boroughbridge. Only six of them publish a price on their own site: Petties Paws, Harry & Co. Canine Solutions, Paws 4 Walkies, DogSmith of Thirsk, Just For Dogs Day Care and Derrings Kennels. 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.

Overnight boarding
Three businesses publish an overnight or per-day figure, and they are not directly comparable: Derrings Kennels, purpose-built kennels near Raskelf, starts from £15 a day; Petties Paws, kennels at Fewston, charges £28 a day for one dog, rising to £46 for two and £57 for three; and Harry & Co. Canine Solutions, a home boarder in Ripon, charges £40 a night, where your dog stays in the boarder's house rather than a kennel block. Ask exactly what each price includes, and how the first and last day of a stay are counted, before comparing them.
Day care
Five businesses publish a day care price. Just For Dogs Day Care in Northallerton charges £25 for a full day and £18 for a half day. Paws 4 Walkies, a home boarder and day care in Malton, charges £23 a day. DogSmith of Thirsk prices its 'Day School' (day care combined with training) from £30 for a full day. Petties Paws charges £18 for one dog's day care and £31 for two, and Harry & Co. Canine Solutions charges £30 for day care, rising to £40 for a higher band.
Dog walking and other add-ons
Paws 4 Walkies also publishes a group dog walk at £13 an hour and a cat or small pet visit at £10. Neither of these is a boarding or day care price, but they show what a stand-alone visit costs from a business that also boards dogs.
Everyone else
The other eighteen dog boarders, day cares and kennels listed for Harrogate, including six of the eight home boarders and ten of the twelve boarding kennels, do not publish a price. This is normal for the 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 your 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 in the trade, so confirm the final total before booking.
