Dog boarding and day care prices in Sunderland
Prices are as the businesses published them when we last checked (September 2026). They can change without notice, so confirm them when you book.
Twelve dog boarders and day cares are listed for Sunderland, and only three of them publish a price on their own site: Barking Mad – Sunderland and Durham, Alpha Omega – Dog Walking Sunderland, and Adrian's Dog Buddy. All three are home boarders. None of Sunderland's boarding kennels or day-care centres — Ferry Farm, West Hall, Doggy Digzzz and Cat Club, Take The Lead, MyPetStop, or the two Mighty Mutt House sites — publish a figure, so the table below is a floor for what home boarding costs locally, not a price list for the town as a whole.
Published prices, September 2026
| Business | Service | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Adrian's Dog Buddy, home boarder in Seaham | Boarding, per night | £25 |
| Barking Mad – Sunderland and Durham | Home boarding, per day (one dog) | £30 |
| Barking Mad – Sunderland and Durham | Home boarding, per day (two dogs) | £50 |
| Barking Mad – Sunderland and Durham | Collection and delivery | £35 |
| Barking Mad – Sunderland and Durham | Pet taxi, from | £15 |
| Alpha Omega – Dog Walking Sunderland | Dog boarding, per 24 hours (one dog) | £34 |
| Alpha Omega – Dog Walking Sunderland | Dog boarding, per 24 hours (additional dog, same household) | £17 |
Home boarding, per night
Adrian's Dog Buddy, a home boarder in the Seaham area, is the cheapest of the three at £25 a night. Barking Mad, a host-family franchise covering Sunderland and County Durham, charges £30 a day for one dog and £50 for two — £20 more for the second dog rather than a flat rate per dog. Alpha Omega, a single-operator home boarder in the Silksworth & Ryhope area, charges £34 for one dog per 24 hours but only £17 for a second dog from the same household, effectively halving the rate for the extra dog. None of the three prices are directly comparable, since they cover different arrangements — a matched host family, a single operator's own home, and another single operator's own home — so ask exactly what a quoted price includes before booking.
Extras
Barking Mad is the only business here to publish add-on prices: collection and delivery from £35, and a pet taxi from £15. Neither of the other two publish a figure for collection, bank holidays, or a second dog from a different household, all of which are commonly charged on top elsewhere in this niche, so ask about each before you compare a final total.
Everyone else
The other nine businesses listed for Sunderland — five home boarders and day cares, and the boarding kennels and larger centres — do not publish a price at all. This is normal for the sector: a home boarder in particular usually quotes around the dog's size, the length of stay, and how many dogs are in the household, so have your dates and your dog's details ready when you call. Sunderland's day cares and kennels, including MyPetStop's day and night crèche and the two Mighty Mutt House sites, are also unpriced here; ring or check their own pages directly for a current rate.
