Spaces available for small pets

We are now offering boarding for exotic pets.  Since space is currently limited, preference is given to existing clients.  Discounts are available for pets that stay with us longer than 7 days with additional discounts for pets that stay over 30 days.  If you'd like a health consultation for your pet and any medical care, we can do that during your pet's stay.  For pets we've never seen before, a health consultation and other requirements may be needed before boarding is approved (see below).

Standard boarding covers all the care your pet needs to stay healthy.  If you have have a special diet for your pet, please bring in sufficient to last their stay.

We offer the option of TLC time where pets are brought out for longer periods of one-on-one play time with our staff.

If your bird is on a seed-rich diet and you want to convert to Harrison's Organic Pelleted Diets, we can do that during your pet's stay with us for an additional charge.

If your pet needs to receive medicine during its stay, please bring in all prescriptions.  If your pet has an infectious disease, an additional fee is added since your pet will have to be kept separate from other pets in our care.
