Dog Boarding & Pet-Sitting
Quality over Quantity
Quality over Quantity
Quality over Quantity
Quality has always been one of our top priorities the past three decades - and we've achieved this goal, to keep us private, small, and focused on the customer's pets! Since we only take 4-5 dogs - we have more individual time to play and care for your pet! This isn't a facility where your dog spends 23hrs. locked up in a tiny cage and a cement pad .......... this is our home that the dogs get 24/7 access to, which includes a large yard, a pond, lots of trees, other pets, and most of all - they get more human interaction than any standard kennel!
Outstanding Care
Quality over Quantity
Quality over Quantity
With high quality comes exceptional animal care - and Michele & Drew provide the utmost in both medical & behavioral attention to your pets! They don't charge extra for shots or giving pills, and if need be, will make the most unique meals for your pets. They have watched numerous deaf, blind, and diabetic dogs over the past three decades! These pets are treated like one of their family members - since they are staying right in their home, with their family :-)
Flexibility
Quality over Quantity
Flexibility
We are super flexible when it comes to dropping-off or picking-up your pets! Contact us by email or thru Facebook to arrange the times! We do have a "Limo" service, where we can go to your home and pick-up your dog - making your life even simpler! We also have a Pet-sitting service for your cats, plants, and those non-social dogs. It's all about teamwork and communication! Contact us to inquire which programs are best for you and your pet!
Basic Rules & FYIs about your stay with us ...
Shots & Vaccinations:
All Dogs that stay at our home (Homestyle Boarding) must be current on all vaccinations. Your Veterinarian will be able to determine the best vaccination regiment for your specific pet, and we do not accept Owner-given vaccinations without a Veterinarian wellness-check & sign-off, prior to staying with us! Plus, all dogs must be on some form of flea control; e.g. topical (back of the neck), collar, ingested pill. This is every month, including Winter months too!
No Aggressive Dogs Allowed:
All Dogs that stay in our home (Homestyle Boarding), must be social & good with other animals & kids. Failure to disclose any obvious issues, up to and including aggression, will result in immediate removal from premises. You must have a back-up person or facility we can take any aggressive dogs too immediately! We have a zero tolerance for aggression!
Spayed & Neutering:
All Dogs (male & female) over the age of 1yr. old must be spayed/neutered to stay in our home. Plus, we are not held liable at Pet State University & Homestyle Boarding if an Owner doesn't disclose this (and/or lies, or has a Vet falsify a report), and their Pet winds up pregnant, or impregnating another dog! The Owners will be held 100% responsible for all Veterinarian costs, etc... associated w/this deception!
Deposits for New Dogs & Holidays/Summer:
All Pre-Boarders and reservations made more than 4-months out and/or during Holidays & Summer months, will require a 2-night deposit to secure the dates/reservations. These reservations are dependent upon receiving the deposit within 1 month (30-days) of putting in the reservation..... If no deposit is received in that timeframe, the reservation request will be cancelled & all the dates opened back up to the general public. The deposit is refundable up to 30-days before the first day of the boarding date. If the reservation is cancelled less than 30-days from drop-off, the deposit is forfeited.
** A 2-night Deposit is also required for any "new" dog reservation - for a dog that's never stayed with us before (stops people from "Cat-fishing" us).
Doggie Daycare & Boarding "No Show"/Cancellation Policy:
Doggie Daycare Reservations that are not used, and not cancelled (no contact from Owner, within 48hrs. of reserved Date), will be charged a full day of Doggie Daycare ($40), since this Daycare Slot went empty, and we have numerous Customers "waiting in line - on standby", and we could have filled the Daycare slot if known 2-days prior!
** This also goes for Overnight Boarding, if cancellation is less than 7-days from 1st Night, then one-night Boarding ($43) is charged, or added onto next visit. Again, if we have proper advanced notice, then we can call those on our "Stand-by/Waiting" Lists!

This is your pet, and we will do our best to follow all of your rules & systems, to keep the transitions as close to "normal" as we can! If you do bring treats, snacks, etc.... bring a few extras, for the other campers too :-)
