Boarding
Any NEW PATIENT (even if it is a client we have seen before) will be required to have a boarding consult exam with the doctor prior to boarding.
Veterinarian supervised boarding – safe, convenient, and affordable
We are pet lovers, too, so we know the anxiety you feel when you have to board your dog or cat. Boarding at Autumn Trails Veterinary Center gives you peace of mind knowing your loved one is in good hands. We treat your pets as if they were our own.
As a veterinary center:
-
Our veterinarian oversees all boarded animals.
If there is any change in the pet’s health, appetite or behavior it will be noticed immediately. If your pet has special medical needs, you can rest assured that only trained veterinary professionals will be caring for them. -
We know the importance of keeping pets active.
We will ensure a fun, stress free and healthy experience for your pet during their stay. -
Drop-offs and pickups can be done anytime during our regular hours, 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., 7 days a week.
The only days we will not have drop-offs or pickups are Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. (We will have staff on premises to care for the animals, but will not be open for business.) -
Safety is our top priority.
Our boarding requirements (please see below) ensure our boarders stay healthy, and they keep our facility disease and parasite free. We even treat our play yard for fleas, ticks and mosquitoes.
Our Boarding Requirements
Dogs need to be active in order to stay fit and mentally healthy. Our facility includes a fenced play area for plenty of outdoor exercise and socializing. Our boarded dogs enjoy 10 to 15 minutes of off leash playtime in our fenced yard four times per day. Unless instructed, each dog is taken out alone to ensure safety.
Our indoor, climate-controlled kennels have one area for sleeping and a joining run for eating and playing. We supply beds and blankets. Unfortunately, we do not accept bedding from home in order to prevent pests such as fleas from being brought into the facility. You are encouraged to bring toys, treats, and food. If you do not bring in food, we can supply ours which is, Hills Science Diet Canine Adult Formula.
Canine Boarding Prices:
- Any Weight: $45 per nightÂ
If the dog needs us to administer oral, ear, eye, or skin medications, there is an additional charge of $7 per night. If the dog needs to be given injections, there is an additional charge of $11 per night.
Canine Boarding Requirements:
Must be up to date on their rabies vaccine, DA2PP (distemper) vaccine, bordetella vaccine, influenza vaccine, fecal test and must have a flea and tick preventative applied within 30 days. Â
Due to the constant interaction with the staff members we request that the dogs are well socialized and not aggressive towards other dogs or humans. This policy helps create a less stressful kennel experience for our canine friends and keeps our staff safe. We reserve the right to deny boarding for this behavior.Â
Drop Off and Pick-up Times:
Drop off and pick-up times are between 9:30 am and 7:00 pm. We are close for drop offs and pickups on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.
Â
Cats who vacation with us enjoy a two-room loft, with plenty of room to eat, sleep, play and relieve themselves. Our cat condos are separate from our canine boarders to reduce stress. Â
We use Feliway pheromones to reduce the stress among our feline friends. We encourage you to bring items from home such as toys, beds, treats and food.
Requirements for feline boarders: Must be up-to-date on their rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, fecal test and must have a flea and tick preventative applied within 30 days.Â
