What to Look for in a Dog Sitter or Boarding Provider in South East England
Whether you're choosing home boarding, a licensed kennel, or a sitter who stays in your own home, it's worth checking a few key things: local authority licensing (a legal requirement for anyone boarding dogs professionally in the UK), how many dogs are cared for at once, daily routine and exercise arrangements, and how nervous or anxious dogs are settled in. Reading recent reviews from other South East dog owners, and visiting in person before booking where possible, are two of the best ways to judge whether a provider is the right fit.
How Much Does Dog Boarding Cost in South East England?
Pricing in the South East tends to sit close to or slightly above the UK average, with busier areas in Surrey and Sussex typically at the higher end. Expect around £20–£35 per night for home boarding, and £15–£30 per day for daytime sitting, depending on the provider and your dog's size and needs.

Are dog boarding providers in the South East licensed?
Anyone offering dog boarding services professionally in the UK is legally required to hold a local authority licence. Always confirm this directly before booking.
What's the difference between home boarding and kennel boarding?
