Overnight Boarding Trials Required for cats & dogs

We look forward to hosting your pet! Before they stay with us, please make sure to book an overnight boarding trial Monday - Thursday drop off at 9AM pick up at 9AM next business day. After a successful trial, you may begin to book any of our services (Trials are a paid service). 

 

What do we look for on their overnight boarding trial?

​

Dog Boarding:

We have discovered that our overnight buddies need their resting time as they do not get to go home and rest. It is important for their health that they get to rest throughout the day as they get plenty of exercise here. Your pet will be kenneled at night so they get their own space and it keeps all pets safe during their stay. We have crates of all sizes to accommodate small to large breeds. All kennels have access to water & food and a quiet place for them to nap as instrumental music is played through the day/night.

 

If your dog is not crate trained, do not worry. After their evaluation we will be discuss next steps with you based on how they do. Many dogs that are not crate trained do well in the crate as they are tired at the end of day and personal space is needed. Please note if your pet suffers from separation anxiety a human does not sleep in the same room as them. 

 

Lastly, our sleeping area(s) are monitored by home cameras and employees sleep at the home at all times.
