In Scotland people search for "kennels" far more than "dog boarding". If you are pricing kennels in Dundee, home boarding is the other option: your dog stays in one sitter's house instead of a kennel block.
A week, a fortnight and a long weekend

Comparing a kennel quote
Kennels often price per dog per day, and some price by size or charge extra for walks. Ask each kennel for a written total covering your drop-off and collection days, then set it beside a sitter's nightly rate for the same dates. Ask the sitter how many walks your dog gets, where it sleeps, and whether other dogs will be staying.
Dundee has two large public parks a sitter may use:
Balgay Park in the West End and
Baxter Park to the east.
Licensing in Dundee
In Scotland, dog boarding is licensed by the council under the
Animal Boarding Establishments Act 1963, and that includes boarding in a private home.
Dundee City Council licenses boarding in the city and publishes separate conditions for home dog boarding and day boarding. Ask a boarder to show you their licence.
Book before the Scottish holidays
