Dog boarding and day care prices in Blackburn
Prices are as the businesses published them when we last checked (September 2026). They can change without notice, so confirm them when you book.
Twenty-one dog boarders, day cares and kennels are listed for Blackburn, and only six of them publish a price on their own site or page: Barks Allowed, Bold Bark, BowWowMiaow, Digs for Dogs (Blackburn & Darwen), Digs for Dogs (Rossendale) and PetStay - East Lancs & Bury. None of the town's eight kennels businesses publish a price at all, so the figures below cover only home boarding and day care, and are a floor for what boarding and day care cost locally rather than a full price list for the town.

Home boarding
Four home boarders publish a day rate, and one franchise prices identically at both its Blackburn branches: Digs for Dogs charges £34 a day for one dog or £65 for two, whether you book its Blackburn & Darwen branch or its Rossendale branch, plus a one-off registration of £35 for one dog or £60 for two, and £20 each way for transport. PetStay - East Lancs & Bury charges £31 a day for one dog, £43 for two and £59 for three. BowWowMiaow prices its "doggy holiday" home boarding at £34 a day for a short stay of one to three nights, dropping to £30 a day for four nights or more, and separately charges £60 for a meet-and-greet or trial visit and £15 for a weekday pack hike.
Day care
Bold Bark, at Belthorn, charges by the secure-run session or by the day: a secure run starts at £10.80 for one to three dogs for up to 50 minutes, rising to £21.60 for six to nine dogs, while a full day of day care is £28.80 per dog. Barks Allowed, in Darwen, prices a full day from £24 to £28 depending on how many days a week you book, with a second dog from the same household at £22, and a half day of 4.5 hours at £20, or £15 for an additional dog.
Kennels: nothing published
None of the town's eight boarding kennels businesses — Ribble Valley Kennels & Cattery, Tailwaggers Kennels & Cattery, Carr Hall Boarding Kennels & Cattery, Aspen Valley Boarding Kennels & Cattery, Glencoe Kennels and Cattery, Lancashire Canine Academy, Mitton Hall Boarding Kennels & Cattery and Willows Wags & Whiskers — publish a price on their own site. If a kennels stay is what you need, call and ask for a quote, since there is nothing published here to compare it against.
Everyone else
The other fifteen businesses listed for Blackburn, including four of the eight home boarders and all eight kennels, do not publish a price. This is normal for the niche: a home boarder in particular usually prices around the length of stay, the number of dogs from the same household, and how far it needs to travel, so have your dates and dog's details ready when you call. None of the prices above include extras that often apply elsewhere: bank holidays, collection, or a second dog from a different household are commonly charged on top, so confirm the final total before booking.
