More Than a Place to Stay

Boarding and daycare routines are designed around safety, enrichment, and each pet’s individual needs. Dogs can participate in play and activity, while cats stay in a quieter area away from dog boarding. Our veterinary team is available within the clinic setting to support pets who need medication or additional attention during their stay.

Enrichment

Dog daycare and boarding include engaging activities and nature walks that add movement and variety to the day.

Separate Suites

Cats stay in a quiet, dedicated area away from dogs to help reduce unnecessary noise and stimulation.

Preparing for Your Pet’s Stay

Contact the clinic early to discuss dates, accommodations, feeding, medications, behavior, mobility, and any medical concerns. Bring the requested records and clearly labeled food or medication according to the clinic’s instructions. If your pet needs vaccines or an examination before boarding, schedule wellness and preventive care with enough time to complete the requirements, as vaccines must be administered at least 14 days prior to your pet’s stay.

Pets taking ongoing prescriptions may benefit from planning refills through the clinic’s pharmacy and prescription services before drop-off. Share changes in appetite, coughing, vomiting, diarrhea, or other health concerns before bringing your pet into the facility.

Bathing and Supportive Grooming Options

In-house bathing helps pets return home feeling clean and comfortable.

We offer in-house baths and blowouts to help your dog or cat return home clean, fresh, and comfortable.

For pets with severe matting, high anxiety, advanced age, or underlying health conditions, we also offer sedated medical grooming. Our veterinary team will evaluate your pet to determine if gentle sedation is a safe, stress-free option for their specific needs.

Note: We focus on hygiene and health-focused care rather than full professional styling or haircut services.
