Dog boarding and day care in Newbury and West Berkshire, area by area
Newbury and West Berkshire's nine listed home boarders and day-care providers are spread unevenly across the town's four defined areas, all licensed by West Berkshire Council. This guide lists exactly what is published in each; see our council licences guide for why no star rating is shown for any of them.
| Area | Businesses listed |

| Newbury | 4 |
| Hungerford | 1 |
| Thatcham | 4 |
| Newbury villages and Kingsclere border | 0 |
Newbury
Four businesses are listed here: Fluffy Friends, a family-run home boarder offering day care, overnight and holiday care; Wessex Dog Boarding, which matches your dog with one of a network of home carers across West Berkshire, north Hampshire and Wiltshire; Woodland Waggy Walks, trading locally for over 15 years alongside dog walking and training; and We Love Pets Newbury, the branch of the national franchise covering Newbury suburbs and the RG20 villages, which publishes prices from £52 a day for home boarding.
Hungerford
One business is listed here: We Love Pets Hungerford, the franchise's Hungerford branch, run by the same operator and under the same licence as We Love Pets Newbury but with its own local phone number, covering Hungerford and the surrounding RG17 villages. No independent, non-franchise home boarder is currently listed for Hungerford; if you would prefer one, it is worth asking a Newbury or Thatcham business whether it covers Hungerford too.
Thatcham
Four businesses are listed here: A Dog's Retreat, offering day care and home boarding 7am to 5pm with later pickups available for a fee; Doggy Day Care Thatcham and Newbury, reachable through its Facebook page rather than an independent website; LK Doggy Day Care and Boarding, which specialises in small to medium dogs; and Treasured Pets Pet Care Services, run by Nicky, which holds a home boarding licence on West Berkshire Council's register but whose current website advertises dog walking, pet sitting and puppy play rather than boarding.
Newbury villages and Kingsclere border: no business listed
No business is currently listed for this area. One business found during research, Paws At Home, trades from Washwater in this area but could not be confirmed with a verified phone number under this site's rules, so it is not listed here. We Love Pets Newbury states on its own branch page that it also covers several RG20 villages, including Highclere, Burghclere, Woolton Hill and Chieveley, but is counted under the Newbury area above rather than here, since that is where its branch itself is based, and We Love Pets Hungerford similarly covers several RG17 villages while being counted under Hungerford. If you are in this area, it is worth asking either We Love Pets Newbury or West Berkshire Council directly for its current list of licensed home boarders serving RG20.
