It took 1.5 yards of concrete for the dog kennel slab below (10' x 10'). That would be 57 80lb bags of Quikrete to mix if you used bags. Maybe a slab 1/2 that size would be worth using bags but not this size. Some concrete companies will charge you a small load charge if the total yardage is under 5 yards of concrete.
Sometimes, it is not even a black mark on the kennels cleanliness, but an indictment of their concrete.

However, many kennels do not seal their concrete, leading to a painstaking and tiresome cleaning process every time an animal has an accident.

Between cement and pavers, I like pavers better. Pavers are usually angled to allow run off, and are easy to hose down, but urine can be absorbed and leave some lasting scent. The area can be treated with a concrete sealer, but this also makes the floor slippery. Regarding the artificial turf, it's definitely important that it is made for dogs.
I agree that a solid concrete floor would be more sanitary for the dogs. If you want to use the pavers some options are: 1) Cut 1 x 1.25" squares out of an extra paver and put them in the gaps. 2) Use a paver system without gaps. 3) Fill the gaps with mortar - you could even dye it to match or contrast with the paver color.

A kennel with a concrete pad provides a safe and long-lasting place for your dogs.. A kennel in your backyard can provide a convenient place to keep your dog outdoors.

A concrete pad, properly poured, makes a solid foundation for a dog kennel.
8 x 16 pavers. I used the 8 x 16 pavers for floors in 3 (5 x 15 runs) for right at 200-250. These pavers cost 47 cents each at home depot. Make sure you level the area under them well or they crack.
