Tips for Dog Boarders When Planning Summer Vacation

Doggo Boarding Tips for Your Summer Vacation

We are thrilled to announce that we are fully booked for some of the summer months. Spring and summer are popular times when many families take vacations, and often, it may not be cost-effective or enjoyable for your dog to accompany you.

Book Early, Relax Later

By making your reservations in advance, you can enjoy peace of mind later on.

Summer is one of our busiest seasons, and space fills up quickly—especially around holidays like Memorial Day and July 4th. By booking in advance, you ensure your pup has a spot and can choose upgrades like Bark-A-Ritas, Kongs, and extra cuddle time.

Pro Dog Boarding Tips for Summer Vacation Plans

Booking at least three weeks in advance is ideal.

What to Pack for Dog Boarding

We provide a comfy bed, bowls, and all the love your dog needs. However, if your pup has special needs, here’s what you might want to bring:

  1. – Pre-portioned food (label each bag with the meal type and your dog’s name)
  2. – Medications with clear instructions
  3. – A favorite toy or blanket for comfort
  4. – Special treats, especially for those with dietary restrictions
  5. -Doggie Chew – Toy Kongs stuffed with peanut butter
  6. Please leave anything irreplaceable at home—we want to avoid any unfortunate chewing incidents!

 

Let our team know what your dog loves best, and we’ll be happy to tailor their experience.

Ease Separation Anxiety When Dog Boarding

New environments can be challenging for some pups. Here are some tips to help your dog settle in:

  1. -Try a One-Night Trial: A few short visits before a longer stay can help build familiarity.
  2. – Stick to Routine: This is key, maintaining consistent feeding and medication schedules can reduce stress.
  3. – Dog breeder tip – Pack a Scent from Home: A t-shirt or blanket that smells like you can be surprisingly comforting.

Last-Minute Checklist
