Our rates are based, not on how big or how small the dog is,
or how much space he takes up. Rather, it is based on our
exercise program.
If a dog is neutered and compatible with other dogs, most
are $22.50 per day. (Day care is $18.50 per day.) Unneutered
or incompatible dogs are $30.00 per day, as they have to be
exercised separately. All dogs are exercised so we do not board
dogs that cannot be handled. A few giants are $25.00 per day. We feed Pedigree Mealtime. However, we are glad
to feed your food. A second meal (morning if you supply it) is $2.50 extra, as are medications.
Cats are $15.00 per day per cat. Some quarters are roomy
enough for your 2 cats to share!
We also board mice, rats, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets,
cockatiels, and parakeets and an occasional iguana, turtle
or pot bellied pig, from $8.50 to $18.50! We do not board large parrots.
We accept cash or checks only for payment. We do not accept credit cards.
VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS
We are very conscientious about our vaccination
requirements, checking not only on recent vaccinations, but we also
ascertain that the animal has a history of vaccinations. Dogs need to
have a current rabies, bordatella, distemper, parvo, and optional corona yearly
boosters*. Puppies need to have had their complete series of at least 3 vaccinations through 4 months.
Because of this, we do not accept puppies under 4 months of age, but
suggest a neighbor, 4-H'er, or housesitter for that situation. Cats need
to have been tested for feline leukemia and received that vaccination plus
a booster. They also need distemper and upper respiratory annual boosters
plus a current rabies.
*Recently adopted shelter dogs need to have had a series of 2 (DA,2PP) vaccinations before being accepted for boarding.
Please Call to Make Reservations and for correct directions.
Since we are believe in personal service and are often outside with the animals,
it is quicker to reach us by phone. We return all messages the same business day.
