People don't leave their dog with strangers. They research. They check Google, read reviews, look at photos of the facilities, and judge whether this is somewhere their pet will be safe and happy. If your website doesn't show them that, or if you don't have one at all, they'll book with the kennel down the road that does. It doesn't matter how good your facilities are if nobody can see them.
I'm Laurence, and I build websites for kennels, catteries, dog groomers, dog walkers, pet sitters, doggy daycares, and veterinary practices. Hand-coded, fast, designed for phones first. Because most people searching "kennels near me" are doing it from their phone while planning a holiday.
Pet owners are protective. They want to see your facilities before they book. Clean kennels, outdoor space, happy animals. Your website needs proper photos of the actual place, not stock images of golden retrievers. I build sites with clean galleries that load fast and look sharp on every screen. Your facilities, your setup, your real animals in your real space.
Beyond photos, people want to know your pricing, your availability, your vaccination requirements, and what's included. A clear, well-organised website answers all of that before they call. Which means the people who do call are already sold and just need to book.
I set up the Google Business Profile for Qualco Kennels, helping them get properly visible in local search for kennel and cattery queries in their area. Getting the basics right on Google is the foundation, and a proper website takes it further.
You're in the middle of feeding time, or out walking six dogs, and the phone rings. Someone wants to know your rates for a fortnight over Christmas, or whether you take cats as well as dogs. I build AI chatbots that handle those enquiries on your website instantly. Trained on your actual pricing, availability, requirements, and services. The customer gets an answer straight away, and you don't miss the booking. From £199 setup, £20 a month.
A hand-coded website starts at £499 one-off. If you'd rather spread the cost, fully managed sites start from £30 a month, which includes hosting, SSL, support and updates whenever your pricing or services change. Nothing upfront on the monthly option.
I also set up business email on your own domain from £8 a month, and run local SEO campaigns so your business shows up when pet owners in your area are searching. £199 setup, £20 a month.
If pet owners can't find you online, they can't book with you. Let's sort that out.
