Boarding Requirements
When registering pets for boarding & grooming, it is the responsibility of the pet owner to bring current vaccination papers with them. To insure that your pet's vaccinations are current, we strongly suggest that you refer to the papers that you received from your veterinarian, or call your veterinarian for that information. To save time when you are checking your pet in, you may fax, mail, or drop off that information in advance. If your pet's vaccinations are not in compliance with our policy, your pet will not be able to board with us. The required vaccinations are in the best interest of your pet's health.
DOG/CANINE VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS
We require proof of DHLPP, rabies (if the dog is over 4 months old), and bordetella. Bordetella prevents against canine cough and is not a routine vaccination, so you must ask your veterinarian specifically to administer it. This vaccination must be given no later than 72 hours prior to your dog's boarding with us.
CAT/FELINE VACCINATION REQUIREMENTSWe require proof of feline distemper and rabies and that the cat does not carry the feline leukemia virus. We realize that some veterinarians do not give a rabies vaccination if it is totally a house cat; however we will not accept cats without rabies vaccinations for boarding because we need to offer that protection for the safety of employees.
These papers will be kept on file, but it is the responsibility of the pet owner to furnish us with the latest vaccination record.

We aim to keep our facility a safe place; in the grooming area along with the boarders.
Reservations are required.
Cancellations with less than 24 hours notice will be charged full fees.
