Medication
If your pet requires daily oral or topical medication, we will be happy to accommodate for a small fee. For the safety of your pet, all medications must be clearly labeled in their original packaging, and accompanied by documentation from your vet that includes dosage and possible side effects.
Administration fee is as follows: $2.50 for 1 administration, $5 for 2 or more.
Temperament
All pets must be friendly and okay with being handled. We do not accept aggressive pets. Any dog visiting our facility for the first time must pass a temperament test. Temperament tests take approximately two hours and must be scheduled in advance.
Why do we require temperament tests? They allow us to see your pet in action! During their time with us, we practice leashing/unleashing, placing and removing bowls, and see how they interact with our staff and other dogs. If they don’t get along with other dogs but love people, that’s okay! We understand some pups are just more particular about their friends, and temperament testing allows us to determine whether or not they are eligible for group play.
Temperament test fee: $10
Spay/Neuter
While we recommend that all pets are spayed and neutered for their health and safety, we will accept unaltered pets at an additional fee of $5 per night.
Check-in and Check-out times
You may check-in your pet before 2 PM during regular days and hours of operation. Check-out time is before 11 AM.
Though we are closed on Mondays, we offer an 11 AM regular check-out. If you are not on time to pick up your pet, an extra night’s fee will be charged and they will remain boarded until the next business day.
We are closed Sundays and all legal holidays. We do not offer pickup on those days.

If your dog wears a prong collar, we ask that you remove it prior to boarding.
