Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about dog boarding in Leicester.

How much does dog boarding cost in Leicester?
Leicester home boarding typically costs £22 to £55 per night, among the more affordable English cities, with sought-after areas like Stoneygate and Clarendon Park at the higher end. On Petme owners pay 0% commission, so the agreed rate is the full price, with cashback after the stay.
Is home boarding better than a kennel in Leicester?
Most Leicester dogs settle better in a home than a kennel, keeping a normal routine and one-to-one attention rather than a run in a facility. A local boarder can use Victoria Park, Abbey Park, or Watermead Country Park for daily walks, so your dog stays well exercised throughout.
How do I find a dog boarder near me in Leicester?
Search your area or postcode in the Petme app to see verified boarders across Knighton, Stoneygate, Clarendon Park, Aylestone and out to Oadby and Birstall, sorted by distance. A nearby sitter keeps handover quick and your dog on familiar local routes.
Does the Protection Plan apply to Leicester 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 Leicester vet and the Protection Plan may contribute toward eligible costs, subject to its terms.
Can I meet the sitter in Leicester before my dog's boarding stay?
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 match. Profiles also show reviews from previous Leicester stays to help you choose.
