Kents Farm Kennels

 

Be the first to review

Here at Kent’s Farm Kennels and Cattery we have a love of all animals – great and small and have been looking after our customers’ dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and other more unusual pets since 1970. We are a family run business with a dedicated team that prioritise your pet’s welfare.

 

We have established a deserved reputation for ensuring that all animals spending time with us receive individual care and attention and we get to know each guest personally as many of them become regular visitors.

Our attention to detail and care is second to none, exemplified by our customer satisfaction, and we are proud of the number of recommendations we receive.

We are confident that the information here on our website will provide you with the assurance that your pet is in safe and caring hands, taking advantage of the highest quality and range of services available, for complete peace of mind while you enjoy your time away.

We look forward to meeting you and your beloved pets soon.

Thank you, Perry and Mark Harding-Jones

Boarding for your Dogs

Luxury

While your dog stays with us, comfort comes as standard in our luxury heated kennels. We provide a warm, cosy holiday-home whether a Great Dane, St Bernard, Yorkie or Chihuahua, young or more mature, everyone can be accommodated. If you have two or more dogs they can stay together, or should you prefer they can luxuriate in their own space. Each kennel has its own large run, providing space for your dog to absorb the atmosphere.

Bedding

All bedding is provided, however, we understand that dogs are creatures of habit and if they prefer to bring their own bedding, toys and treats we are more than happy to personalise their kennel for them.

w

Attention

Our fully trained animal-loving staff take great pleasure in lavishing attention on all our guests. Regular observation of each kennel and thorough exercising, two-three times a day, means your pet is fully occupied and monitored throughout their stay with us.

Medication

If your dog has any special medical requirement, please let us know and our trained staff will administer the appropriate medication. Our own vet is on call daily for any urgent or serious consultations.

Health

When checking in please let staff know of any recent illnesses, lumps, bumps or any other problems. Your dog’s health is paramount to us and we can make adjustments to our service to ensure, in most cases, that any special needs are met.

Feeding

We all have our preferences when it comes to food and your dog is just the same. We stock a broad range of dog food brands to maintain a balanced diet. However, if you have specific feeding instructions, inform us when checking in and we will follow them. We can provide your dog’s favourite food, even if it is not within our stock range. For this service we require up to three weeks’ notice and depending on the product there may be an additional charge.

All of our grooming treatments include a bath using a professional grooming shampoo plus conditioner and dogs are then hand-dried on the table, including use of a ‘forced-air dryer’ where possible to remove all dead & loose hair from the dog’s coat.  All dogs’ coats are groomed, brushed and combed through to perfection during the drying process!  A nice little massage completes the bathing/drying treatment.

Also included in a “Full Groom” are nail clipping, groin area, anal area and inbetween pads/under ears clipped where necessary, ears cleaned … and also teeth cleaned and anal glands checked/emptied on request.

CLIPPING/SCISSORING/TRIMMING

Clipping, hand-stripping, scissoring and trimming are carried out as necessary and as instructed or discussed with the owner.
