Why a website

An owner checking your business is trusting you with a pet they can't supervise.

They want to see what the accommodation actually looks like, whether you're licensed, and whether you can manage their pet's medication or diet. A site that answers all three clearly, rather than a phone number and an answerphone, is often the difference between a booking and a search for somewhere else.

01

An owner checks what the accommodation looks like

Photographs and a clear description of the runs, chalets or pens, rather than a vague promise of "comfortable boarding".

02

An owner checks your licence

Your local authority boarding licence, stated only where you hold one - never assumed or implied.

03

An owner checks whether you can manage medication or diet

Whatever additional care you offer, described exactly as your own policy.

04

They want a fast way to check availability

A simple enquiry route, rather than a form built for something else, catches the questions you'd otherwise lose after closing.

Getting found

An owner usually starts searching weeks before their holiday.

"dog boarding near me", "cattery Tewkesbury", "kennels that give medication" — searches made by owners planning ahead. Website + SEO is the ongoing work of being visible when they do.

  • Local searches, agreed with you. We pick the three searches that matter most to your business — say, "dog boarding Tewkesbury", "cattery near me" and "kennels with medication administration" — and work on them every month.
  • Google Business Profile. Set up and kept current, so you appear on the map with your opening times, your accommodation and a way to get in touch.
  • Reviews handled carefully. A simple way to gather genuine reviews from owners, shown as written and never used to imply a result we can't confirm.
  • Content that answers real questions. What the accommodation is like, how your licence works, and what to bring, written accurately for the owners asking.
  • A monthly report you can read. What moved and what we're doing about it — in your Client Platform, without the analytics jargon.

We never promise rankings or a number of new visitors. We do promise consistent, honest work on being found — and to show you exactly what we did.

Built for you

An owner needs to trust the accommodation before they trust the business, not read one generic pet-care template.

They're leaving a pet they can't check on, and a generic pet-care template that never actually shows the kennels makes that trust harder to earn. We don't.

Every PrimeStart website is designed from scratch and custom coded on WordPress in HTML and PHP — no page builders, no theme bought off a shelf with your logo dropped in. It's built around what your business actually offers: your accommodation, your care routine, and your own licence.

"An owner deciding where to leave their dog for two weeks wants to see the actual kennel, not a stock photo of a golden retriever on a lawn. Show them the real accommodation and the licence, and most of the hesitation goes away."

  • 1

    Never assumed together if you only offer one

    Described exactly as your business has them, never inflated to look bigger than it is.

  • 2

    Your local authority licence, shown only if you hold one

    Never assumed or implied on your behalf.

  • 3

    Exercise, medication, diet - told apart clearly

    Never one vague "comfortable boarding" line that leaves an owner guessing.

  • 4

    A link to your existing booking process

    Never a kennel-management system or online booking we build — a clear route to however you already take bookings.

Questions

What boarding kennels and catteries ask us.

The commercial questions, answered plainly. Anything else, ask us — a real person will call you back.

Not sure which plan?

Tell us how much of your bookings come from search versus returning customers, and we'll say honestly whether SEO is worth it for you yet.

Request a call
Can the site show our own boarding prices?
Yes - your own dog and cat boarding prices, shown exactly as you set them. We never invent a figure on your behalf.
Does the website include online booking or a kennel-management system?
No. We never build or promise an online booking system or kennel-management software as part of the standard plan. The site describes your accommodation and links to your business's own existing booking process - rather than replacing it.
Can the site mention our animal boarding licence?
Yes, but only where it's true. If you hold a local authority licence under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018, we state it exactly as issued, and never assume every kennel or cattery holds one.
Can the site describe our care routine?
Yes, described exactly as your business's own policy - exercise, feeding, medication administration, whatever applies. We never invent a service or imply a level of care your business doesn't actually provide.
How much does a website for a boarding kennel or cattery cost with PrimeStart?
Website is £99.99 a month for 12 months with no upfront design fee, or £899.91 paid upfront for the year (save 25%). Website + SEO is £349.99 a month in total, or £3,149.91 paid upfront for 12 months of Website and SEO. For new agreements, after the first 12 months the website continues automatically at £49.99 a month for hosting and aftercare, with no new minimum term, unless you give 30 days' notice; Website + SEO continues at £299.99 a month while SEO is still running. Existing customers keep the pricing in their own agreement.
Is the domain name included?
Yes. Your domain name is registered and managed as part of the plan, and if you already own one we will use it.
How quickly will I see a first draft?
We aim to have your first website draft ready within 5 working days once PrimeStart has everything needed and confirms your project is Ready to Build. Nothing is published until you have reviewed and approved it.
