Great care and expense goes
into the design of a boarding facility to make it
virtually escape proof.
Covered runs, cement floor and outside runs make it impossible to dig out.
Enough can't be said about social interaction. An idle mind isn't any better
for your pet than for a human.
The design of an indoor/outdoor kennel ensures your pet will be given
one-on-one care several times each day and get plenty of fresh air and
exercise.
We interact with the dogs
during the day, all day, every day, as well as during meal
and snack times.
Cats will
be given individual attention daily, too, giving
them time to get out to stretch their legs and play.
When bad weather is predicted or imminent we put the dogs indoors where it
is almost soundproof to mask thunder, wind or on some occasions, fireworks.
We always
are making sure our guests are safe and comfortable.
You'll have the peace of mind knowing that since we interact with our guests
so much during the day, any problems with illness or an injury will be
noticed
right away. Your pet's happiness and well-being is the most important thing
to us. We will be in a position to take immediate action if a problem
arises.
Pets left at home for many
hours may escape from and inexperienced 'dog sitter' and often run away
searching for their owner. A pet suffering from separation
anxiety could try to find their owner by digging out of their yard or if
inside, work out its frustration on your home's interior.
Lack of social interaction and boredom from spending almost all day alone
can be very stressful to a pet. How many times have we seen a dog destroy
something when it had nothing better to do? Amazingly, it's usually the
most
valued item in your possession. It's as if they took the time to
individually
appraise each thing in the house before choosing!
If your pet were to become sick or injured at home alone he/she may have to
wait for hours, possibly overnight before anyone notices, IF they notice at
all. The first few hours of an illness or after an injury occurrence is
often critical and could mean the difference between life and death.
If your dog is the least fearful during thunderstorms, left alone
during a thunderstorm with no one to comfort them can panic, causing
extreme distress and injury.
