We build fast, professional websites for kennels that rank on Google, showcase your facilities, and turn visitors into boarding bookings. You focus on the animals — we'll handle the website.
If any of these sound like your situation, you're leaving money on the table every single day.
When someone searches "dog kennels near me" or "dog boarding [town]" in your area, your competitors show up and you don't. Without proper local SEO, you're invisible to the pet owners who need you most.
Over 60% of your potential pet owners are searching on their phone. If your site is broken on mobile, they'll go to the next result — and that booking is gone.
Your site gets traffic but you're not getting enquiries. There's no clear call-to-action, no easy way to book boarding, and no reason for someone to choose you over the competition.
You're busy running your boarding kennel. You don't have time to learn WordPress, mess with a website builder, or chase a freelancer who ghosted you. You just need it done properly.
Every feature is tailored to how boarding kennels win pet owners online.
Optimised for searches like "dog kennels near me", "dog boarding [town]", and "pet boarding [area]". We build your site to rank where your pet owners are searching.
Let pet owners check availability and book boarding dates directly from your website. Capture pet details, dietary needs, and vaccination records in one form.
Photo galleries and virtual tours of your kennels, exercise areas, and facilities. Pet owners need to see where their dog will be staying before they'll commit to a booking.
97+ Google PageSpeed score and sub-1.5-second load times. A fast site ranks higher, converts better, and doesn't lose impatient visitors to a loading spinner.
Council licence details, facility photos and virtual tours, customer testimonials, and vaccination policy information. Everything that makes a pet owner feel confident choosing you over the competition.

Our kennel websites start from £800 for a professional single-page site, £1,500 for a multi-page site with online booking, facility galleries, and £2,500+ for a fully bespoke build with automated updates and webcam integrations. All plans include a £40/month care plan covering hosting, security, backups, and ongoing support.
Most kennel websites are designed, built, and live within 14 days of design approval. The design phase typically takes 3–5 days, and development takes another 7–10 days.
Every Velo kennel website is built with on-page SEO as standard. For Professional and Premium plans, we also create dedicated service area pages targeting local searches and integrate with Google Business Profile.
We handle as much as possible. If you have photos of your your facilities, exercise areas, and animals in your care, that's ideal. If not, we can source professional imagery. We can write the copy for you based on a short conversation about your business.
No problem. We build your new site independently and only switch it over once you're completely happy. Your existing site stays live until the new one is ready.
Yes. Once the project is paid in full, you own the website design and all custom content. If you ever decide to leave the care plan, we'll help you migrate your site to your own hosting.
Pet owners planning holidays research kennels online. They're comparing facilities, reading reviews, and checking availability. Without a professional website showcasing your kennels and making booking easy, those bookings go to competitors.
A professional kennel website does more than just exist on the internet. It acts as a 24/7 salesperson for your boarding kennel, building trust with potential pet owners before they ever pick up the phone.
A great kennel website needs to do three things: rank in local search results, build immediate trust through council licensing details, facility photos, and genuine client testimonials, and make it effortless for pet owners to book boarding.
When someone searches for "dog kennels near me" or "dog boarding in [town]", Google decides which websites to show based on page speed, mobile responsiveness, relevant content, and Google Business Profile integration. Every Velo kennel website is built with these ranking factors in mind from the ground up.
pet owners need to trust you. Your website needs to communicate professionalism within seconds — Council licence details, facility photos and virtual tours, customer testimonials, and vaccination policy information, real photos, and clear descriptions of what you offer.
The single most important function of your kennel website is converting visitors into enquiries. Every page should have a clear call to action, a simple way to get in touch, and a visible phone number with click-to-call functionality. A pet owner looking for dog boarding shouldn't have to work to find how to reach you — it should be immediately obvious, especially on mobile where over 60% of searches happen.
We've seen hundreds of kennel websites, and the same problems appear again and again. Understanding these mistakes is the first step to making sure your website doesn't fall into the same traps.
At Velo, we build kennel websites that work. Every design decision is focused on generating more enquiries for your boarding kennel. We understand your industry and we know that a fast, locally optimised website is the most cost-effective marketing investment a kennel can make.
