Boarding Frequently Asked Questions

Will my dog get time to play with other animals at the hospital?

For the safety of your pet and of others, open play times are not an option.  If your pet comes in for boarding with another furry member of your family, we will happily walk them together and give them time to enjoy each others company one-on-one. 

What do I bring for my pet?  

Other than bringing your furry family member, we simply ask that you just bring their own food and medication (if they take medications).  We do not leave any collars, harness', or leashes at the hospital and will return them to you at drop off of your pet.  Each pet coming into the hospital will have a personalized identification band specifically made for him/her.  If you do not bring your own food, no worries!  We have cat and dog food we will provide for your pet at no additional cost to you.  Please note that if your pet comes with daily medication, Medical Boarding charges will be incurred.  

What if I want to bring my own bed?  And toys?

If you feel more comfortable bringing your pets bedding they are accustomed to, we will happily offer it to them during their stay.  However, we do recommend leaving their special bedding and toys at home.  We have plenty of clean, fresh, plush bedding that is changed multiple times per day for your pets comfort.  Should your pet have an accident (it happens!), we would rather wash our linens and bedding than risk accidentally damaging their special bed during laundering.  For safety precaution, toys and/or bones are not left with pets in kennels. 

What is the cost of boarding?

Boarding pricing varies based on the species of your pet, size of your pet, and if your pet is receiving daily medications.  Please call the hospital directly at (631) 288-8535 to discuss current rates for boarding.
