If you want to operate boarding kennels for cats and dogs, you must be licensed.
This applies even if you’re looking after a small number of animals at home.
How to apply for an animal boarding licence
To apply you’ll need to complete an application form and pay a fee
Download the application form and fees here
When we receive your application and fee we will arrange for an inspection of your premises.
This will result in a report on the suitability of your application.
Licence fees are charged annually upon application for renewal.
Your licence will expire on 31 December each year. So a licence granted initially during a year will only remain valid for the remainder of it.
