Please THOROUGHLY read through our boarding policies and reservation information prior to clicking submit. 

Reservations are necessary and space is limited. We recommend booking as far in advance as possible. Calls will be taken from 7:00 am - 6:00 pm M-F and Saturdays 8:00 am - 12:00 pm. If calls are received after hours, please leave a detailed voicemail and we will give you a prompt call the next business day.

 

If your pet's vaccination records are being transfered from another hospital, it is highly recommended that you verify your records have been received prior to dropping your pet off for boarding. If our hospital does not have records of current vaccinations at the time of drop-off, the patient will be vaccinated for required vaccinations at the owner's expense.

Dogs:

•  All dogs require proof of current Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, Bi-Valent Canine Influenza, *Bordetella (within the last 6 months). 
  • *While we do understand that some veterinarians only require the bordetella vaccine every 12 months, in an effort to minimize the risk of kennel cough occuring and/or spreading, we require the vaccine to be boostered every 6 months for patients staying in our facility.
• A negative fecal exam within the last 6 months. If your pet does not have one, our hospital will administer a fecal exam at the owner's expense.

Cats:

• All cats require proof of current Rabies and FVRCP vaccinations.
• A negative fecal exam within the last 6 months. If your pet does not have one, our hospital will administer a fecal exam at the owner's expense.

Please bring your pet's food in a sealed plastic bag(s) portioned per individual meal labeled with your contact information and any medications currently being taken by your pet in its original container.

If you would prefer your animal to eat our facility's food, please inform our EUVH team when booking your pet.

Diets Fed:

• Canine - Purina Pro Plan Prescription EN *dry kibble*

If your animal is not wanting to eat while in our care, we will contact you to ask permission to add our hospital's *wet diets to your animal's food to entice them to eat. (*This will be charged per can to your account. Each can will be dedicated only to your pet and will not be shared amongst other boarding animals).

 You are welcome to bring special treats. We do not accept any other personal belongings with exception to medically necessary items (with additional signed waiver). Items we do not accept including but not limited to: beds, blankets, and toys. We provide bedding to all of our borders unless told by the owner they cannot receive them.

We offer Kuranda cot beds, plush bedding and blankets.

Upon arrival, your pet will be checked for fleas and intestinal parasites (if no fecal examination has been performed within the last 6 months with negative results). If fleas are found, your pet will be given a mandatory Capstar at the owner's expense. If you do not have record of a negative fecal exam within the last 6 months, one will be done at the time of drop-off at the owner's expense.

If the results of a fecal exam are positive for intestinal parasites, an appropriate dewormer will be given to the pet at the owner's expense. We highly recommend and encourage the use of monthly flea/tick preventative as well as heartworm and intestinal parasite prevention. 

Bathing is also available at the owner's request and expense. If your dog has any pre-existing conditions or behaviors we should know about, please take this opportunity to inform the staff upon check-in.
