Harker's Barkers Dog Boarding Kennels is a small family run business, situated in beautiful open countryside on our farm near to Little Oakley situated roughly halfway between Kettering and Corby in Northamptonshire. We offer a caring, friendly environment and provide the best love and attention for any dog boarding with us.
All our kennels are newly built, self contained and constructed mainly of insulating blocks, built to the highest standards and all comply over and above current model licensing conditions. All our kennels are licensed regularly and inspected. Each kennel has 2 heaters which control the temperature in the day and also during the night.

Ideal paddocks for dogs that will get on their toes and do one! High fences are high enough even for a determined malinois. Only issue is that there is no warning of times that groups of nursery kids meander past. You tend to take difficult dogs to these places, mine is a rescue and has a bad reaction to new stuff, sure the kids didn't enjoy being barked at, I would have avoided these times if I'd known. Not a criticism, just an observation.

Our dogs always stay at Harkers Barkers because the friendly and attentive staff look after them and we know they will be safe. We have tried other kennels but they don’t compare to Harkers Barkers. The kennels are clean, the building has CCTV and staff work both daytime and overnight. There are plenty of exercise areas and dogs are walked twice… a day. Time is taken to discuss medical issues, medication, feeding and walking requirements beforehand and all dogs must be vaccinated including kennel cough. A few years ago, we went abroad on holiday and one of our dogs became ill. They
