Boarding for Dogs, Cats, Birds and More

Having to board your pet away from the family home during an absence can be upsetting for both pet and owner. Before an extended boarding stay we recommend bringing your pet for a short day visit. A short boarding visit will help to accustom the pet to new people and surroundings without the pet becoming stressed. Accompanying the pet with familiar bedding and food and even your nightshirt may relieve anxiety of an extended boarding stay. Vaccinations, heartworm testing and a fecal examination as well as flea and tick prevention, may be recommended or required, by boarding facilities. Boarding your pet in a facility that has a veterinarian on staff is a big advantage. Vaccinations can be given on site, as well as providing reassurance for pet owner who have pets that have histories of medical problems. Checking the boarding facility and knowing it's a good fit for your pet's temperament and lifestyle is very important research should be done before you actually need the service. The comfort, health and safety of your beloved pet are our utmost concern during a boarding stay.
