Regardless of how much you love your family dog, there will be a time when you have to leave him behind when you go away on vacation. There are places where pets are not allowed and Fido will have to stay at home. When this is the case, pet boarding is the right option.
Before deciding on which pet boarding facility is suitable for your dog, take a tour of different boarding facilities to see which ones are the best. Keep in mind that your dog might feel anxious staying in a new place so it is always good to bring your dog along for an initial visit prior to leaving him there when you go away. The pet boarding staff should have a kind and loving attitude towards your pet. Make sure they have a comfortable environment for your dog, like a bed so that your dog can take a peaceful nap. Do ask about the play time as your pup is sure to love playing with the other dogs at the facility. During play time with other dogs, they should be supervised to reduce risk of injury and keep them well-behaved.
Personal Attention Is a Must
Some pets require exercise, some require walks and some require rest. Make sure that you inform the pet boarding staff about your dog’s eating habits, walking time, his interests and his fears. This way your pup will get personal attention and the staff members are sure to make him feel as comfortable as possible while at the pet boarding facility.
Additional Pet Boarding Company Services
Not only do you want the pet boarding company to look after your pet 24/7 while you are gone but many pet owners will also appreciate the additional services which many pet boarding companies offer. Services such as pet grooming and dog training enable the pet owner to have these needs met while their pup is at the pet boarding facility. Quite often you will find that these additional services are reasonable in price and readily available overall.
A pet boarding facility gives your dog a safe place to stay until you return from your business trip or vacation.
