If you’re getting ready to enjoy a vacation, isn’t it worth it to make sure your pets can enjoy their time away from home, too? Pet parents will find that a trustworthy pet boarding facility and staff, like that at Perry Animal Hospital, can provide great peace of mind. And there are also many things you can do before your trip to make sure your dog or cat achieves the height of comfort.

After years of service in the local community, the experts at Perry Animal Hospital have learned many tips and tricks to make boarding more enjoyable for you and your furry friend:

Communicate All Your Pet’s Special Needs

From feeding instructions to medication needs, many pets have a special care routine that keeps them healthy and happy. Before your trip, let the facility know all the special care needs your dog or cat may have.

Keep it Personal

New animals, new people, new spaces — staying in a kennel can be overwhelming for some cats and dogs that haven’t done it before. Fortunately, having a little piece of home, like a favorite chew toy or blanket, can help your pets be at ease once you drop them off.

Familiarize Yourself

As a veterinary clinic that also offers pet boarding and grooming services, Perry Animal Hospital can quickly become a comfortable and familiar spot for pets. If your kennel of choice just offers boarding services, call ahead to see if they offer tours for you and your pet. These visits not only give you a chance to check out the features, but it also gives your animal time to get acquainted with their temporary new home.

Make A Calm Exit          

Pets tend to mirror the behaviors of their owners, which is why it’s crucial to make a calm and clean exit when dropping them off for boarding. While saying goodbye before a trip can be a little emotional, knowing you have a team of trustworthy animal experts on hand can make it all that easier to leave with peace of mind.
