Founded
in 1978, by Gertie Dieleman, the Animal Care Centre was originally
developed to provide Animal Control and Licensing for area Townships.
In 1992, our Kennel was built to accommodate Boarding and Grooming
services.
We
are located west of London, Ontario in the heart of Middlesex
county. (Map) Ours is the only government
inspected Boarding Kennel in Middlesex county. Our trained and
experienced staff are prepared to handle all of your pet Boarding
and Grooming requirements.
At the Animal
Care Centre, we believe that all healthy and sociable animals
should have a loving and clean environment until a suitable
home is found. Our
state of the art facility is home to one of the largest pet
Adoption Centres in the area.

companionship to many of our guests. If you like animals and
would like to help out, please give Gertie a call.
