Overnight or Day Boarding

We welcome dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles and birds of all sizes! Please read on for requirements so your pet can have the best stay possible.

We are a small facility with limited staff which enables us to accommodate many special needs.

We do not, however, have the capacity to accomodate dogs that we cannot physically interact with.  For the safety of our staff, please be forthright about your pet's past and present needs and behaviors. 

Day Boarding

Not a part of our daycare program or perhaps you need to be away for the day for an appointments or special event?  Locals and travelers in need of a daytime-only care can make a half or full day 'Day Boarding' reservations. If you would like us to include your dog in our playgroup pack, we can do an evaluation same day and, if appropriate, they can join in group play for an additional $13. We also offer solo play with staff for the same rate for dogs who would do best one on one.  Drop off is as early as 7:30am and pick up as late as 6:30pm.

Overnight Boarding

Overnight boarding drop-off is between 4-6pm. Pick-up is anywhere between 7:30am -6:30pm.  If you need to drop off before 4pm, talk to staff and as long as there is room we can accomodate for a day-fee. Drop off from 7:30am-12pm incurs $27 day fee. Drop off from 12pm-4pm incurs a $20 day fee. If you drop off past 4pm there is no charge for the day.

 Food: Please do not include measuring cups or bowls. We have plenty here at KVBGD. All food should be pre-portioned and labeled in small ziploc bags. If your dog is here for an extended stay, we allow larger containers properly labeled. If your dog eats supplements (NOT PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS) please include them with the food. If for some reason they can not be added i.e liquids we can disperse them as a medication for a fee.

 We prefer to use our bedding, blankets and toys as we know they works well in our washer and dryer and don't get mixed up with other's belongings when we clean them.  If you would like to bring some items from home, items allowed are: 1 bed, 1 blanket, and a few toys. Please label the bed with the dog’s name using a sharpie. Please be prepared for items that will not fit in our machines to go home potentially soiled. 

For our canine companions the day starts promptly at 7am with breakfast and time outside. They have several opportunities for  time in the yard throughout the day alternating with the playgroups and dogs requiring solo playtime. Speak with our staff about adding on group or solo-play if your pet would like more excitement in their day. After our Daycare Program friends have left for the day, dinner is served, the pups get one more chance out in the yard, we pick a good radio station for the night and everyone gets a little treat in bed at 7pm.

For our feline companions the day starts with breakfast served in bed, followed by a day full of lounging in the sun. Playtime and socialization are provided throughout the day. Dinner is served at 5pm and we say goodnight at 7pm!

Boarding is a high risk environment - our priority is keeping all dogs and cats at our facility safe. To maintain safety, we require the following vaccines:

All canine visitors must have up-to-date Rabies and Distemper vaccines.  We also require the Kennel Cough vaccination administered within 6 months of their stay.  All 3 must be given 3 days in advance of your dog's visit to ensure protection. 

All feline visitors must have up-to-date rabies and distemper (RCP) vaccines administered at least 3 days in advance of their stay. 

Does your pet require extra care, like medications or a visit to a clinic? For an additional fee, medications can be administered and pets can brought to Kedron Valley Veterinary Clinic.

Medications must be in original containers.

Medications administration: $3 per dose

Concierge Veterinary Visit: $44 per visit
