Dog boarding and day care in Hinckley and Earl Shilton, area by area

The nine dog boarders, day cares and kennels listed for this page split unevenly between its two areas: two in Hinckley & Burbage and seven in Earl Shilton & Barwell. Searching by the wider area, or by a specific nearby village, often turns up more than searching “Hinckley” alone, since several of the seven sit in villages some distance from Earl Shilton or Barwell themselves.

By area

Hinckley & Burbage

Watson's Dogs and Pampered Pets Inn are the only two listed businesses in Hinckley & Burbage itself, and both are home boarders rather than kennels or a dedicated day care centre. Neither publishes a street address here, since a home boarder's address is only given once you book. If you live in Hinckley or Burbage and specifically want a kennels or a day care centre rather than a home boarder, every other business on this page is in the Earl Shilton & Barwell area instead, mostly on farms towards Desford, Barwell, Stoke Golding and Kirkby Mallory.

Earl Shilton & Barwell

The seven businesses in this area spread across several villages rather than sitting in Earl Shilton or Barwell itself: Nilz and Harley Pet Services is based in Barwell, Wags Dog Care and Desford Dog Care both sit near Desford, Doggy Daycare at the Willows is beside Burbage Common in Elmesthorpe, Best Buddies Petcare is on a farm between Barwell and Kirkby Mallory, and Stanmaur Farm Boarding Kennels and A47 Boarding Kennels and Cattery both sit off the A47 towards Leicester Forest West. This is the area to check first for a boarding kennels or a dedicated day care centre, since every one of this page's kennels and day-care-only listings sits here.

What the split doesn't tell you

A thin count in Hinckley & Burbage does not necessarily mean fewer dogs are boarded from that side of town: several of the businesses in Earl Shilton & Barwell describe covering a wider area than their own village, so a Hinckley or Burbage resident is often within a reasonable drive of any of the seven, not just the two listed under their own postcode area. Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council also keeps no public register of its own, so a business licensed for this district that isn't listed here by name is possible too — see our council licences guide for what that means for checking a licence yourself.
