Are you going on vacation or leaving on a business trip?
Your pet deserves the best care and some fun, too!

First, consider where your pet would want to stay if he/she would tell you. The answer would probably be, “At home!”  where they are the happiest and most comfortable. 

If you are thinking of sending your pet to an overnight boarding kennel, consider that removing your pet from your home will cause undue stress on everyone!

There are unavoidable risks involved with kenneling your pet, no matter how many precautions are taken. They may seem like the cheaper alternative, but basic service won’t be enough to keep your pet happy and healthy. The boarding kennel with charge you an additional fee for extra time spent cuddling with your pet, medication administration and walks.

The difference in cost may surprise you!
