We are happy to offer boarding for our established clients and can board a variety of species. Due to limited space we require reservations in advance. In emergency situations or when a need arises without notice, we will work with our clients to ensure their pet(s) can be cared or offer alternative solutions if needed.
We require annual exams to maintain the veterinarian-client-patient relationship. This allows us to be sure we know your pet’s health status before staying with us. We also require vaccinations, as applicable, and specific testing to ensure your pet is protected and free of zoonotic diseases that could pose a threat to other boarders or our staff. All of our boarding patients are monitored by our trained and knowledgeable veterinary staff. We can medicate your pet(s) during their stay if needed and can monitor for any changes or concerns.
Our tanks, cages, foods, and other items may not be available for boarding use if there are hospitalized or sick patients that require accommodation. In order to ensure your pet(s) is comfortable while they are here, we need our clients to provide the items below for their pet’s stay with us. If there is a concern or something you cannot provide, please discuss this with us when scheduling your pet’s boarding stay. This will allow us an opportunity to work with you on recommendations or needs before your pet arrives to board with us. Our foremost concern is always the pet’s wellbeing and safety.
