Best Kennels in United Kingdom

My 5 dogs have just had there holiday here in total luxury and by the look of them they've had a blast great place great staff top notch thank you and now there new holiday home

Friendly, dedicated animal loving staff, who really care about animals and who work hard to help them.

So sad to learn that one of your staff ,she is not lover of animals at all!
I had shocking experience a while ago when she had tried to hit my dog as he was just friendly running to her , how such people get even employed as a vets???!
People like her should be banned from any animals ….

Took my Luna, a 3 year old St Bernard rescue to Pawprints from fri-mon, she could not have been in better hands 🙌🏼
She was bubbly coming out and the staff took their time to get to know her whilst she was there, I am very grateful for the staff and service, I hope to use going forwards!

Used the enclosed field, was brill. They also have hotel boarding for dogs which looks amazing, so will definitely be trying that out for our next holiday!

Dog boarding.

These guys are our venue of choice for dog boarding.
They're lovely people and our two-year-old Huntaway Charlie absolutely loves it here... As soon as we pull in he's excited to get out of the car, and he doesn't look back when heading inside.
Heartily recommended.

Great place for animal bits and pieces.
Good boarding as the staff love animals its not just a job to them.

First time for my doggo in kennels but he came home having thoroughly enjoyed himself from what we can see. The staff were amazing and very knowledgable

Visited this morning with our two working Cocker Spaniels to check the facilities available as we are looking for a place to board them for a long weekend at the end of April. The owner of our previous kennels where they were always made very welcome and all facilities were open for inspection has sadly finally retired.

Parking impossible as all spaces full so parked up the road and walked back to find one person on reception with a very disinterested attitude. We asked if it was possible to see the boarding kennels and received a short “No”. When asked why we were told it was because there were a lot of dogs for rehoming wandering about.
As we would not be happy to leave our dogs somewhere we had not seen as to do this we would be very irresponsible owners. We therefore asked if we could make an appointment to look round at a different, more convenient time, the answer was again an abrupt “No”.
Perhaps they should concentrate on the rescue side of their business and leave boarding for people who have nothing to hide and want to be helpful for new customers.

This place claims to have loving staff for the animals but customer care leads a lot to be desired. We will certainly not be returning and will also advise anyone else looking for kennel facilities to avoid them.

Rehomed a puppy today from Teckles. Amazing service from everyone I met there. The dogs and cats are cared for so well. If you want a cat or dog, I highly recommend going there.

This animal shelter dont seem to care to much about animals when it comes to rehoming your animal, I tried to rehome my dog after being in a difficult situation for months on end due to medical reasons at home. I took the dog in to be rehomed as planned by the shelter. When we got there the dog was unsettled due to new surroundings and he growled and barked at the member of staff who was meant to be rehoming him and then she point blank refused to rehome him at the shelter and suggested we just put him down. He’s only a year old. Our experience with this shelter was a complete waist of time. They would rather put your animals down than give them a chance.

What a wonderful place! I was so nervous to leave our anxious lurchers in kennels for the first time. They've both had a brilliant experience, and made lots of doggy friends

The whole team have given fantastic care for our Labrador during his stay at Cheltenham Animal Shelter. Angie especially has gone above and beyond in giving advice. Thanks ☺️

Love these guys - always get the feeling that they really care for their charges, and have even overheard a conversation or two that confirms how willing they are to go the extra mile and make sure that those staying with them are happy and healthy.

Lovely place, friendly staff, super helpful in the adoption process, giving us all the details that we needed as well as even having our little Crouton back for her second jabs and neutering later on. Would definitely rehome from here again!

We've just adopted two kittens from Teckels and have been so impressed with the place. The staff are so caring and kind and talk you through the whole process. We've always adopted our pets and I can honestly say Teckels is the best rescue centre we've ever been to. I'm happy to recommend them to anyone and am extremely grateful to them for bringing our beautiful girls into our lives.

What can I say? Excellent care even for my very high maintenance troubled rescue dog. Heated rooms, doggy music, paddock to play and love and care from the staff 💜🐶

Dropped off several items after our guinea pig passed away. Easy way to donate items. Lovely lady in the charity shop showed me where the donations shed was. Very efficient system.

My rescue Lurcher loves 4 paws farm. She leave me without a care and goes happily with the fantastic kennel staff. She has a great time and I feel totally confident with her care. Running with the pack is a joy. Thank you.

Came in and gave a donation. Wasn't allowed to see or talk to anyone about the dogs. It's all done online now, so this wasn't helpful. So I went home and look online where there is minimal information about the dogs available. You have to fill out application forms, then you get an e-mail to say if your suitable. Sadly I'm not suitable for Luna because she isn't cat friendly and I have a cat. If this basic information was online then this would make things easier. Saves a lot of messing about with forms ect. No wonder dogs aren't being re-homed very easily. I will seek a dog that I can easily get information on

It was my first time using pawprints after viewing a number of kennels and reading many many reviews.
We booked our 3 small dogs in for a trial of 2 nights and it was brilliant.
The staff are lovely, very welcoming and ask questions about my dogs to get to know them.
I felt 100% comfortable leaving them and when I returned they told me all about their stay and how good they had been. the dogs came out confident and very happy and you could see they were very comfortable with the staff.
Will definitely be recommending them.

I love this place,after looking for somewhere to look after my very anxious nd scared 4yr old Cross Harley.Went for a trail of day care to an overnight stay and the difference in him with confidenceis amazing,He still as some way to go but to be told that he actually played with other dogs is just amazing,he will be back soon.The staff are just fabulous with him and we'll taken care of.Very clean and very professional from telephone calls to bringing him home.
Thank you.

We have two German shepherds who are both about 2 years old and had never stayed overnight in kennels but after looking at various kennels and reading reviews including a recommendation from a friend we booked them in at 4 paws for one night / 2 days to see how they settled. The staff were amazing and kept us updated on how they had settled including sending photos. They both had an amazing time thanks to all the staff we will soon be booking them in for a longer stay.

We adopted Daisy yesterday. The Teckels team is caring and knowledgeable. The post adoption support offered is very good to know we can call on if needed.

Our dogs are always happy to be dropped of and enjoy their stay. We get updates of their stay we have been using 4 paws a while now and have no worries when we are on holiday.

Did an IMDT dog training course here over a week with some of their dogs. The dedication, professionalism of the staff is astounding, vets onsite, training and enrichment of the animals is fantastic. Fell in love with Jasper the loving, fun boy. Bruce the Great Dane Mally cross, Taz the gorgeous older staffie. Kato & Poppy the bonded husky cross & Ambull need their forever home together. Looking for your forever companion this is the place to go!!

I have a Romanian rescue who’s fearful of new people so I was nervous about taking her. The staff are very knowledgeable and made her feel at ease from the get go. I was able to leave without any fuss. She got back and if she’s usually stressed she will be on edge but she was her usual self from the get go. Can’t thank pawprints enough.

WOW!!!
Our baby girl has come back so happy.
India-lily has had an amazing time and has been so well looked after.
Thank you to all the staff, especially from India.
The Ackers family.

Lovely place, lovely people.

A little tricky to get to down a narrow lane off a suburban street but worth the small effort to get there.

The whole place is clean and tidy and well laid out, inside and out.

Everyone I dealt with was efficient, friendly and obviously into what the place was ask about.

The ‘charity’ shop in a portacabin in the car park is well stocked with the usual stuff and worth a visit.

I can't praise them highly enough at Pawprints - they're absolutely brilliant! I know my dog is in safe and experienced hands whether she's just being groomed or staying in the kennels, she's always well looked after.

Best kennels I've been to. They are brilliant with my dog who is nervous and wary meeting new people. By the time I went to pick him up after his second time there he didn't mind being fussed and even let the lady put his harness on. I could see he was relaxed!

If you are looking for a great kennel, with great staff who will definitely look after your dog whatever their needs then this is the place to come to!

I love seeing the pictures of him playing in the fields that they post via their Facebook page.

I booked my three dogs into the penthouse for a few days when we went away. I am really happy with the level of care they received, the accommodation was really nice and they got plenty of walks, every day, off their lead in a big secure field with other compatible dogs. They appear to have had a great time. When I picked them they were pleased to see me but they definitely didn't appear to be stressed out or nervous, they did sleep a lot for the first few days..... No doubt recovering from all the exercise they got. We have booked them back in for another 2 visits this year. I would highly recommend 4 paws farm! Thanks again, Loki, Draco and Boots are looking forward to their next visit :)
