Additional Information

Daycare Fee

A daycare fee will apply on pick-up day if pick-up is after 10 am.

Meals

We request that food be pre-bagged for each meal while your dog will be boarding. A $1 charge per meal will apply to any food brought that is not proportioned out by meal. Please do NOT bring food in its original bag, storage containers (plastic tubs/bins), or large bags as we have limited space. "House Meals" may be added as a per-meal feeding fee.

Tours

All guests entering for a tour must use hand sanitizer and wear a mask at all times while on the premises. Tours are preferred Monday-Friday between 10 am and 2 pm. Appointments are preferred during this time.

Peak Rates For Boarding Deposits for Holidays

A 50% deposit is required to hold all boarding reservations during the listed holidays. There is a 2-night minimum for all holiday reservations.

Any boarding cancellations with less than a 14-day notice will result in a charge of 50% of the total invoice for scheduled day care/boarding, and less than a 7-day notice the client will be responsible to pay the entire balance of the reservation. Early pick ups will still result in the full fees paid for the original reserved schedule. We request your understanding that holiday times are a peak service time for pet care and others may be turned away because of full booking.
