Kerrina's Canine Care in short

Kerrina's Canine Care is a small Telford family business pairing home boarding with weekday walks between morning and mid-afternoon. The headline credential is a Telford and Wrekin home-boarding licence with the highest council star rating, sitting beside day-care qualifications and first aid certification. Insurance and DBS checks are stated. Walking runs five days a week between morning and mid-afternoon, which covers part-day needs for owners who work flexible hours. The base is on Trinity Road in Telford, serving local owners rather than the wider Shropshire patch.

Boarding and walking are designed as one arrangement: licensed home boarding with day care beside it, and weekday walks that keep the same people on the lead. The home-boarding licence with the highest council star rating sits beside day-care qualifications, first aid certification, and stated insurance with DBS checks. Walking hours run to mid-afternoon rather than evenings, which fits part-day cover over full-day routines.

The customer evidence is warm rather than spotless: a high headline just short of perfect over a modest base, Google-only in the held record. That profile fits a small family business with steady local clients rather than high turnover. The licence and qualifications stand as the firmer part of the record beside the review count.

Reviews are warm but few: 4.6 from 16 Google ratings, with no other platform scores in the record we hold. Our view is that Kerrina's Canine Care suits owners who want licensed boarding with walks attached from genuinely hands-on people. What counts against it is the missing price list and the modest size of the review base.

Questions about Kerrina's Canine Care

Is Kerrina's Canine Care any good?

On the evidence, yes for boarding-plus-walks: it sits fourth in our Telford dog walkers table with 4.6 from 16 Google reviews, and pairs weekday walks with licensed home boarding. The highest council star rating and day-care qualifications are concrete. The gaps are prices and history. Ask for walk and boarding rates at enquiry.

Is Kerrina's Canine Care registered with a trade scheme?

Dog walking needs no mandatory registration, but home boarding does, and Kerrina's states a Telford and Wrekin home-boarding licence, BTWAWL022, with a 5-star council rating on the business's own website. Day-care qualifications, first aid certification and DBS checks are stated beside it. Ask for the licence number and check it with the council before booking.

What does Kerrina's Canine Care charge?

It publishes no prices for walks, boarding or day care. Send your dates and needs for an exact quote, and ask what a weekday walk and an overnight stay each cost. Confirm the price, the hours covered and the cancellation terms before you agree anything. Ask how weekday walks are priced beside overnight stays, and whether day-care days carry their own rate.

Where does Kerrina's Canine Care work?

The business is based on Trinity Road in Telford and serves Telford owners, with walking running five days a week between morning and mid-afternoon. Day care and boarding run from the same family base. Send your postcode and dates with the enquiry to confirm the round covers you and your walking needs.

How is Kerrina's Canine Care ranked?

It ranks fourth of the ten dog walkers in our September round, picked for owners wanting licensed home boarding with weekday walks. The licence and qualifications carry it into fourth. Fourth of ten reflects the licence and qualifications set against the missing prices and small review base. Read the full review and its sources, then ask for rates for your dates.

What do the reviews say about Kerrina's Canine Care?

The held record shows 4.6 from 16 Google reviews, seen 4 September 2026, with no other platform scores beside them. That is a warm but small-base picture from steady local clients. Sixteen reviews is a modest base, so read each one and go in with questions ready, then ask for the rates that the headline does not show.

How does Kerrina's Canine Care compare with the other Telford dog walkers?

It sits fourth of ten, between Shropshire Canine Enrichment and Haydens Home Dog Boarding. The licensed boarding with the highest council star rating is what sets it apart; the modest review base is shared ground with both neighbours. Compare the full table, then match the pick to your boarding needs.
