Dog boarding and day care prices in Northampton
Prices are as the businesses published them when we last checked (September 2026). They can change without notice, so confirm them when you book.
Nineteen dog boarders, day cares and kennels are listed for Northampton, spread across the town centre, Kingsthorpe, Weston Favell, Wootton, Daventry and Towcester, and only five of them publish a price on their own site: Hound Dogs, The Little Pooch House, Teddy's Dog Care, Happy Hounds Towcester and Paws for a Break. The rest quote once they know your dog's size and dates, so the figures below are a floor for what boarding and day care cost locally, not a full price list for the town.

Day care
A full day of day care in Northampton, where it is priced at all, runs from £20 at Paws for a Break near Towcester to £30 at Teddy's Dog Care in Wootton and Hound Dogs in the town centre area (Hound Dogs charges £30 for a puppy under one). Happy Hounds Towcester charges £23 for a full day and £15 for a half day. The Little Pooch House prices a 10.5-hour day at £22.50. None of the five is directly comparable, since the hours covered by a “full day” vary from one business to the next, so ask what time drop-off and collection are before comparing two figures.
Overnight and home boarding
Hound Dogs and Happy Hounds Towcester both charge £40 a night for one dog boarding overnight, though Hound Dogs charges less, £20, for a second dog from the same household, while Happy Hounds Towcester currently only offers home boarding to its existing day-care customers. The Little Pooch House charges £25 for a day of dog boarding, and Paws for a Break charges £25 for 24 hours of holiday home boarding. Ask exactly what each price includes, and how the first and last day of a stay are counted, before comparing them.
Everyone else
The other fourteen dog boarders, day cares and kennels listed for Northampton do not publish a price, including most of the town's thirteen home boarders and every one of its boarding kennels. 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.
