Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about dog boarding in Belfast.

How much does dog boarding cost in Belfast?
Belfast home boarding usually runs £22 to £55 per night, among the better value across the UK, with south Belfast areas like Malone and Stranmillis at the higher end. On Petme owners pay 0% commission, so the agreed rate is the full price, and cashback follows the completed stay.
Is home boarding better than a kennel in Belfast?
A Belfast home stay suits most dogs better than a kennel, keeping their routine and one-to-one attention instead of a run in a facility. A local boarder can use Botanic Gardens, the Lagan towpath, or Cave Hill Country Park for daily walks, so your dog stays well exercised.
How do I find a dog boarder near me in Belfast?
Search your area or postcode in the Petme app to see verified boarders across Malone, Stranmillis, Botanic, Ormeau and out to Holywood and Lisburn, sorted by distance. A nearby sitter keeps drop-off short and your dog on familiar local routes.
Is vet protection included for Belfast boarding stays?
Yes. Every Belfast booking includes up to £20,000 of veterinary cover for eligible emergencies during the stay. Your sitter can use a local Belfast vet and the protection plan handles eligible costs, so an out-of-hours problem stays manageable.
Can I meet the Belfast sitter before my dog's boarding stay?
Yes. Every Belfast boarder offers a free meet-and-greet at home first, so you can see the space, introduce your dog to any resident pets, and confirm the match. Profiles also show reviews from previous Belfast stays to help you choose with confidence.
