A Spacious Country Escape Just Outside Chatham-Kent

​

While your local options might be limited to tight indoor facilities or crowded city spaces, Barknacres Kennel offers five acres of secure, fully fenced country air. We are proud to be the trusted home-away-from-home for pet parents throughout the Chatham-Kent municipality.

Many of our regular clients live or work in:

• Chatham

• Ridgetown

• Thamesville

• Blenheim

• London, ON

Our location makes us a convenient drop-off point whether you are commuting down the highway, heading out for a weekend trip, or looking for a spacious environment where your dog can truly run and play.

​

We treat your family like our family. Our rural boarding facility stands out from standard urban kennels by offering:

• Five Acres of Play space: Plenty of room for high-energy play, structured daycare socializing, and quiet country strolls.

• Climate-Controlled Comfort: Safe, clean, and perfectly temperature-regulated indoor accommodations to keep your pet comfortable in any season.

• Experienced On-Site Care: A dedicated team providing personalized attention, medication administration, and regular updates to give you peace of mind.

We want you to have peace of mind leaving your family with us, and have a 24/7 livestream in suites. Daily picture and video updates are also provided.

​

We are located approximately 30 minutes from both Chatham and London, with all paved roads accessible just 5 minutes off the highway.
We suggest you take Exit #117 through Highgate.
