The Pet Directory Awards have free entry for all businesses listed on the directory with a basic or premium listing. Any business not listed on the directory will be contacted and made aware of the nomination and given a chance to accept the nomination and proceed by listing their business under a basic listing. This is to ensure that each business meets the criteria we set for any business wanting to list on the directory, (Fully insured, qualified, trained and licenced where necessary for the services they offer).

For those businesses or staff nominating their own business if you haven't already please join the directory either under the basic or premium listing by following this link https://www.petdirectoryservices.co.uk/list-your-business

Free businesses do not undergo the checked like paid listings so are unable to enter unless upgrading to a paid listing

The Pet Directory Services Awards have been designed to celebrate the achievements and recognise professional pet businesses across the country, that have gone the extra mile and beyond the call of duty to assist customers.
