Dog boarding and day care in Lincoln, area by area

Lincoln’s seven areas sit across four different councils, and this directory’s eleven dog boarding, day-care and home-boarding businesses are spread unevenly across them. Grantham has the most, and one area, Nettleham & Welton, has none.

Grantham

Grantham’s three businesses are Absolutely Barkers Grantham and Who Lets Your Dog Out? UK, both combining day care with home boarding, and A Dog’s Life Group, a day-care-only business with its own grooming service, Pamper Pod. Grantham’s real supply reaches further than this list shows: several well-documented kennels sit just outside the NG31 postcode district this page covers, in the neighbouring NG32 and NG33 districts, and are not included here as a result. If you live on the edge of Grantham, it is worth widening your own search rather than assuming these three are the only options nearby.

Bracebridge Heath & Waddington, Sleaford

Bracebridge Heath & Waddington’s two businesses are Elderberry Boarding Kennels, on the A15, and the home boarder Lady Pea’s Dogs. Sleaford’s two are We Love Pets Sleaford, a franchise branch, and A17 Boarding Kennels & Cattery, near Heckington.

Gainsborough

Gainsborough’s two businesses are the home boarder Lea Wood Trails and Tails and Corner Cottage Animal Boarding, near Cleatham.

Lincoln city centre and North Hykeham: thin coverage

Lincoln city centre & Monks Road has a single listed business, Kendrick’s K9 Services, based just outside the city in Saxilby. North Hykeham & Birchwood also has just one, A Groom With A View Lincoln; this is the thinnest area covered by any listed business on this page.

Nettleham & Welton: none listed

No business is listed for Nettleham & Welton. Candidates were found during research, but none had a phone number that could be independently confirmed this pass, so none are shown here rather than guessed from a neighbouring area. If you are based in Nettleham or Welton, it is worth asking West Lindsey District Council directly for its current list of licensed boarders.

Calling a neighbouring area

If your own area shows none or only one listed business, it is often worth calling a neighbouring area’s business too, or asking a nearby kennels or day care whether it collects from further out. Lincoln’s four different licensing councils also mean a business just across a district boundary may still be a short drive away even though a different council covers its address.

How these areas were worked out

An area shown here follows the postcode district a business’s address sits in. Every business shown also has a confirmed phone number, so the counts above only include businesses that could actually be reached, not every name found in research.
