Why should you choose in home pet care for your pets instead of boarding?

The benefits of leaving your pet in his own familiar environment as opposed to boarding are numerous. The fact that you are checking into an option other than boarding for your pet is a sign that you have experienced some of the concerns we also are aware of. The most important benefit of in home care is that your pet is comfortable and secure. In home care eliminates the stress you and your pet feel when you leave them in a boarding facility.

Pets placed in kennels often experience:

Small, cramped cages

Loud, continuous barking and other unfamiliar noises

Exposure to illness

The commotion of other upset pets and numerous employees

Only two to three brief periods of time outdoors

Not enough one on one attention

Extra overnight stays due to drop off and pick up times

Increased anxiety, which may carry over to home behavior
