Petme boarding sitters live across the city from Clifton and Redland to Bedminster and Easton.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about dog boarding in Bristol.

How much does dog boarding cost in Bristol?
Bristol home boarding usually runs £28 to £65 per night, sitting among the higher southern rates, with sought-after areas like Clifton and Redland at the top end. On Petme owners pay 0% commission, so the rate you agree with your sitter is the full price, and cashback lands after the stay.
Is home boarding better than a kennel in Bristol?
A Bristol home stay suits most dogs better than a kennel, keeping their routine and one-to-one attention instead of a run in a facility. Bristol is one of the more dog-friendly UK cities, and a local boarder can use the Clifton Downs, Ashton Court, or the Harbourside paths for daily walks.
How do I find a dog boarder near me in Bristol?
Search your area or postcode in the Petme app to see verified boarders across Clifton, Redland, Bedminster, Bishopston and Easton, ranked by distance. A nearby sitter keeps drop-off short and your dog on familiar local routes, which helps in a hilly city where crossing town takes time.
Does Protection Plan apply to Bristol boarding stays?
Yes. The Protection Plan offers up to £20,000 for eligible emergencies during the stay, subject to its terms. Your sitter can use a local Bristol vet and the Protection Plan may contribute toward eligible costs, subject to its terms. Full terms are in the Petme app.
Can I do a meet-and-greet with a Bristol sitter before booking?
Yes. You can arrange a meet-and-greet with the boarder at their home before booking, so you can see the space, introduce your dog to any resident pets, and confirm the fit. Profiles also show reviews from previous Bristol stays to help you choose.
