Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about dog boarding in Plymouth.

How much does dog boarding cost in Plymouth?
Plymouth home boarding typically costs £20 to £50 per night, among the best value of the larger cities, though seaside demand can push summer rates higher. 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 Plymouth?
Most Plymouth 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 Plymouth Hoe, the beaches at Wembury and Bovisand, or Dartmoor a short drive away for varied daily walks.
How do I find a dog boarder near me in Plymouth?
Search your area or postcode in the Petme app to see verified boarders across Mutley, Peverell, Plymstock, Devonport and out to Plympton and Saltash, sorted by distance. A nearby sitter keeps handover quick and your dog on familiar local routes.
Does the Protection Plan apply to Plymouth 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 Plymouth vet and the Protection Plan may contribute toward eligible costs, subject to its terms.
Can I meet the sitter in Plymouth before my dog's 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 Plymouth stays to help you choose.
