Food

Switching your pet's food causes them tummy upset. Therefore we need you to please bring in their food from home. We provide food and water bowls but you are welcome to bring your own from home. If you forget to bring food or you don't pack enough for their stay you will be charged a extra fee for us supplying their food. If your pick up date is questionable please pack extra food.

Toys / Personal Belongings

Boarding rates include toys, treats, bedding (non filled raised beds &/or fleece blankets) & multiple potty/playtimes in our outdoor fenced in play area. **With us providing the bedding for our guests we ask that you minimize the amount of extras you bring for your fur babies. We want to do everything possible to eliminate the possibilities of anyone bringing in outside illnesses/bugs.**
