ABOUT US

Fairfield Kennels and Cattery was established with a simple mission: to provide kindness and professional care that puts your pet’s welfare above all else. Since 1981, the Poole family has welcomed thousands of dogs and cats into our "home away from home."

Set within 8 acres of rolling Shropshire countryside, our facilities are designed to offer both security and stimulation. We understand that leaving your pet can be a big step, which is why we maintain an open-door policy. You are welcome to visit and inspect our kennels and cattery during opening hours—no appointment necessary.

What People Are Saying ABOUT Us

“Once again a lovely stay for Alaska who thoroughly enjoyed herself. Staff are all amazing. So much good about this place, we travel from Swindon just to leave our dog in their care for her holidays. Can't recommend enough”

— Alex

“Our dog Bronson has stayed here on at least 3 occasions over the years. He stayed last week. The staff are brilliant. They ask all the questions you want them to ask to ensure your dog is given the best care. Bron came back happy, chilled, he clearly was well looked after and given enough fuss. We took him to a different kennel, and he was withdrawn, sullen and kept giving us the side eye - there was none of this when staying here.”

— Suzie

“Felt very reassured leaving my Staffy here while away for 3 nights. Kept me up to date with his progress during the stay and we reunited with a very happy boy when picking him up. All the staff were lovely and made sure everything was spot on.”

— Andrew
