Homefields Kennels and Cattery

A family-run retreat in Barrow-on-Trent built on a lifelong love for animals.

Family-Run & Proudly Dedicated

Homefields Kennels and Cattery is run by a dedicated, local mother-and-daughter team who share a deep, lifelong passion for animal welfare.

We know firsthand that pets are cherished family members. When you trust us with their care, they truly become a part of our family, too. We put absolute pride, love, and tireless energy into looking after every dog and cat that stays with us, treating them with the same affection and attention we give our own pets.

Because leaving a beloved pet can feel daunting, we have designed our entire experience to offer a warm, stress-free environment. At Homefields Kennels and Cattery, we focus entirely on making sure your pets are so happy and comfortable that they enjoy their holiday just as much as you enjoy yours.

Our 4 year old Jackapoo ozzy stayed here for the first time for 4 dsys. He was clearly well looked after, came home clean and happy.

Best kennels in the area by far. The staff are lovely and really care about the dogs. Great facilities and our two Spaniels have no reservations or reticence whenever we take them. 5* in our opinion.

Our sprocker spaniel Oswald has stayed here many times over the past four years and seems to really like it - he drags me in with a waggy tail every time we go there, and can't wait to say hi to the staff. The kennels are lovely and clean with plenty of surrounding secure paddocks for the dogs to explore, and the staff are very friendly and obviously dog lovers.

Our dog seems to have had a great time, extremely well looked after & very happy when we collected her. She'll be back. Many thanks.

Our Bernese and Boxer have spent their weekend holiday here, and they both loved it, came back home, and the pair of them are shattered. Stayed together in one of the big kennels and with a massive fully enclosed play field, they can run around during their daily outings. We've already booked for our holiday next year. My advice is to book early.

Superb, Lovely, friendly I could go on and on. We have been using Homefields for what must be 18 years or more and always been totally relaxed when away, knowing our dogs have gone from our home to their second home or on holidays or weekend breaks themselves. Never been an issue and always excited to go. Thanks guys you are Fab 🥂
