Safe, supervised care for your pet while you're away - with plenty of attention, play, and comfort.

Boarding: Safe, Comfortable Care When You’re Away

Whether you're traveling, working long hours, or just need a safe place for your pet to stay during the day, our boarding services offer peace of mind and loving supervision. Your pet will be treated like family in a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment—so you can be worry-free while you're away.

What’s Included in Boarding?

Our veterinary-supervised boarding facility is designed to keep pets safe, healthy, and comfortable. We provide:

  • Individual, climate-controlled accommodations

  • Soft bedding and clean sleeping areas

  • Scheduled feedings and fresh water

  • Daily wellness checks by trained staff

  • Medication administration if needed

  • Optional medical oversight for pets with health needs

We welcome both dogs and cats, and we’ll tailor your pet’s stay based on their personality, activity level, and special needs.

Why Choose Us?

Unlike traditional kennels, our facility is connected to a veterinary hospital, so you have the added reassurance of on-site medical care if your pet needs it. We pride ourselves on:

  • Clean, secure, and low-stress accommodations

  • Experienced staff trained in pet safety and behavior

  • Flexible options for short- or long-term stays

We’re also happy to accommodate special diets, mobility needs, or anxiety concerns—just let us know in advance.

What to Bring

When boarding, we recommend bringing:

  • Your pet’s regular food (to avoid stomach upset)

  • Any medications or supplements

  • A favorite toy or small blanket (optional)

All pets must be current on vaccinations and parasite prevention. If your pet needs an update, we can take care of that before their stay.


Whether it’s for a few hours or several days, you can trust us to care for your pet like one of our own—with plenty of attention, comfort, and love.

🐾 Looking to keep your pet healthy and happy? Visit us—we’re here to support every step of the way.
