No. Puppy boarding isn't a training program for teaching your puppy new training skills, so no minimum number of days is required. If you're interested in boarding with a training program that teaches foundations for basic manners, a board & train program is the appropriate service.

It varies. My boarding services often book up a few months in advance, but not always. Current availability for boarding stays is shown here. Assessments can only be scheduled on days I don't have a boarding guest.​​

Puppy boarding is for puppies who are 10-24 weeks old at the start of the boarding stay.

I only host one puppy at a time. This includes puppies from the same household.

Maybe. If your puppy is a little hesitant when meeting an unfamiliar person, but warms up after a couple minutes, puppy boarding might work out. We'll decide together if it's a good fit during the boarding assessment.​If your puppy is more fearful than that, puppy boarding might not be a good fit. I'll make a determination whether or not to proceed with a boarding assessment based on your request form submission. Please provide thorough responses to all questions in the request form.

The following is required for all puppies:Up-to-date on distemper and parvo vaccinations, as appropriate for the puppy's age.Up-to-date on rabies vaccination, if 16 weeks or older. Currently free of fleas and ticks, and taking a monthly flea and tick preventative medication.Currently free of worms, other internal parasites, and communicable diseases.​When booking the boarding assessment, you'll be required to upload a copy of up-to-date vaccination records and recent intestinal parasite screen with negative results (including giardia). You may be asked to perform an additional intestinal parasite screen shortly before the boarding stay.

Yes. We'll agree on the specific times as part of booking the stay. Drop-off and pick-up are appointments I need to make sure I reserve for you and don't conflict with other appointments. The earliest drop-off time is 8am. The latest pick-up time is 8pm. The total fee includes both the drop-off day and pick-up day.

Click on the "Request Puppy Boarding" button below to open the request form. Answer each question thoroughly and submit. This is the first step for all new clients. I'll review your submission and get in touch by email within 3 business days Monday through Friday. If we proceed, you'll receive a booking link for the assessment where you can view all scheduling availability in real-time. ​Don't forget to check your spam folder.

You may reschedule the boarding assessment by emailing me at least 7 days before the scheduled appointment. My availability for boarding assessments is often limited to a handful of days each month. This means that a rescheduled appointment may not be available for several weeks. If you notify me with less than 7 days advance notice, or aren't present at the scheduled time, the appointment is forfeited. All purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable.

At the time of booking, a 50% deposit payment is required to secure the specific days you book, and the remainder is due 7 days prior to the start of the stay. Once a booking is made, those days aren't available to others for boarding or board & train, and my availability for other services is affected as well. If you cancel the booking or wish to reschedule the days, these payments are forfeited. All purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable.
