5 Ways to Know Your Dog or Cat is in the Best Boarding Facility – Getting organized for a trip is stressful enough without having to worry about how your cat or dog will do while you are away. If friends or family are unavailable, who can you trust to care for him or her? That’s where boarding facilities, or kennels, come in. But how do you know whether a particular kennel is a safe and comfortable place?
Here are five ways to know you are looking at the best boarding facility:
Cleanliness
When you toured the facility (they did offer you a tour, right?), was it clean? Take a look at the individual spots for the pets and the common areas.
Fencing
If you have an escape artist on your hand, you’ll want to make sure your pet actually stays in the watchful care of the kennel. Take a look at the fences. Are they in good repair? Are the fenced-in areas double-fenced? Even better!
Special Instructions
Does your dog or cat require special instructions for food or medicine? If so, how do the employees treat your requests? Do they listen carefully and write down your instructions so that all the employees know? Do they seem willing to serve your pet by giving them what they need, or do they treat your instructions like a big hassle?
Personal Touch
Do the employees seem happy to see your pet? If you are a return customer, do they remember your pet from one visit to the next?
Personal Space
The best facilities allow your pet many hours of outdoor access so that it has the freedom to spend its energy on its own timetable. They also have roomy pens or cages so that your pet has a comfortable place to rest.
When you are searching for a kennel, keep these five areas in mind. If these are all true of the kennel that you have chosen, your mind will be at ease, allowing you to focus entirely on your trip.
