About these figures
They cover the 40 licensed boarding kennels and catteries in Staffordshire that we list from published council registers, of which 40 have a published star rating. In England, the council inspects each business and gives a rating from 1 to 5 (how the ratings work). Councils update their registers at different times, and a business's rating can change at re-inspection, so check with the business or the council for its current rating. Last updated 21 October 2026.
