Dog boarding and day care in York, area by area
This page covers eight areas across York and the Tadcaster area, and the 14 listed dog boarders, day cares and kennels are spread unevenly across them. Haxby & Wigginton alone holds more than a third of the total; two areas have no business listed at all.

Haxby & Wigginton and Tadcaster
Haxby & Wigginton's five businesses are Rose Cottage Farm Kennels & Cattery, Stud Farm Country Club for Dogs, Good Boy Pet Services, YORPAWS and Waggy Tails / Heather's Lavender Dog Hotel. Tadcaster's four are Rose Farm Boarding Kennels, White Daisy Home Boarding & Pet Sitting, Paws in the Countryside and Peach's Pals.
Clifton, Acomb, Huntington and York city centre
Clifton, Rawcliffe & Nether Poppleton has two businesses, Dunholme Grange Boarding Kennels & Cattery and Ackerley Park Kennels & Cattery, both several miles out towards Boroughbridge and Nun Monkton rather than in Clifton itself, but placed here by postcode. Acomb has one business, Golden Paws of York. Huntington & New Earswick has one, Foss Bank Kennels. York city centre has one, Petpals York, a franchise that arranges home boarding through a network of carers rather than boarding dogs at one address.
Fulford and Dringhouses & Woodthorpe
No business is listed in either Fulford or Dringhouses & Woodthorpe. City of York Council's own register does list home boarders registered to addresses in both areas, but this directory only lists a home boarder once it has a public, working phone number, and none of the names found for either area had one. If you live in either area, it is worth asking City of York Council directly for its current list of licensed home boarders there.
Why York city centre has just one listing
City of York Council's own register has no boarding, home boarding, day-care or kennels entry at all for the YO1 postcode that covers York city centre, which looks like a genuine feature of the dense medieval core rather than a gap in this directory's research: there is little garden or land in the city centre for a home boarder to work from. Petpals York, a franchise arranging boarding through carers based across the wider city, is the only business shown here for that reason.
If you're near the edge of an area
These eight areas follow postcode districts rather than exact boundaries, so a business shown under one area may still be a short drive from a neighbouring one; it is worth checking the areas either side of yours as well before assuming nothing nearby is available.
