Dog boarding and day care prices in Stoke-on-Trent
Prices are as the businesses published them when we last checked (September 2026). They can change without notice, so confirm them when you book.
Seventeen dog boarders, day cares and kennels are listed for Stoke-on-Trent, and only five of them publish a price on their own site: AXP Dog Service, Home2Home4Dogs, PetStay Staffordshire, The Dog Retreat and The Peak Dog Retreat. None of the town's five boarding kennels publishes a figure. 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.

Home boarding by the night
Two home boarders publish a straightforward nightly rate. Home2Home4Dogs, in the Longton & Fenton area, charges £35 a night for home boarding and £27.50 for a day of day care. The Dog Retreat, in the Newcastle-under-Lyme area, charges £28 a night off-peak and £32 at peak times for one dog, rising to £48 and £52 for two dogs from the same household. None of the five kennels listed for the town — Eardley Hall Kennels, Audley Lodge Luxury Boarding Kennels, Ashenhurst Kennels, Lapwing Hall Farm Boarding Kennels or New Buildings Farm Boarding Kennels — publishes a price; all five quote once they know your dog and your dates.
Trial stays and arranged boarding
The Peak Dog Retreat, a home boarder in the Leek area, sells a paid trial package rather than a plain nightly rate: £55 for one dog covers a meet-and-greet, a two-hour day care session and one overnight stay, with £25 added for each further dog, before it takes a longer booking. PetStay Staffordshire, also based in the Leek area, does not board dogs itself; it arranges home boarding through a network of carers and charges £33 a day for one dog, £44 for two and £55 for three, on top of a separate arrangement fee, with bank holiday rates doubled.
Day care and add-ons
AXP Dog Service, a home boarder in the Burslem & Tunstall area, publishes the fullest single price list in the town: £35 a day for boarding, £28 for a day stay, £12.50 an hour for a dog walk and £10 for microchipping. Home2Home4Dogs' £27.50 day-care rate is the only other published day-care figure; Doggy Day Care in Silverdale, the town's one dedicated day-care site, does not publish a price.
Everyone else
The other twelve dog boarders, day cares and kennels listed for Stoke-on-Trent do not publish a price, including every boarding kennels in the town and eight of its eleven home boarders. This is normal for the home-boarding side of this niche in particular: a boarder usually prices around your dog's size, the length of stay and how many dogs come from the same household, so have your dates ready when you call. None of the prices above include extras that often apply elsewhere: bank holidays, collection or a second dog from a different household are commonly charged on top, so confirm the final total before booking.
