Tips:

We recommend early reservations…
during peak vacation times.  Availability during the holidays can be very limited, so take this into consideration when you plan your pet’s stay with us.  Reservations can be made by phone, text, requested by email or using the contact page on this site.
 
We also recommend that all dogs are appropriately protected from fleas, ticks, heartworm and other common parasites.  Monthly treatments with products such as Frontline, Nexguard and Heartguard are proven to be excellent preventative measures.
 
Prior to drop off…
you can save time by completing the required boarding contract and pet information documents (they can be found on the docs page of this site) and bringing the completed forms with you.  If you need to fill these forms in when you arrive it can take 10-15 minutes and we cannot board your pet unless they are completed, so please be aware of this when you are planning your drop-off day.  We will also happily accept email proof of vaccinations, but only ahead of drop-off.  No pet can be left with us without appropriate documentation.
 
At drop-off…
you should bring appropriate vaccination records, completed documents (see above), your pet’s food and treats, along with any other pet-specific items you’d like them to board with (toys, bedding etc.)  We will take good care of your pet’s possessions, but we cannot be held responsible for any damage the pet may inflict on them and they often get forgotten in the excitement of pick-up!
 
Settling in…
for your pet is important and to avoid undue stress you should plan to arrive well before our morning and evening closing periods so they can get used to the kennel routine as quickly as possible.
 
Say goodbye to your pet quickly…
to minimize stress (on both of you!)  You should be ready to say goodbye in the reception area and not when they are taken to their kennel.  You should be confident leaving your pet with us.  They will see your reaction and that will minimize stress as the confidence you show in the situation will transfer to them.
 
Let both of your breaks begin…
your pet is in safe and caring hands.
