Additionally, the temperature and humidity may be slightly different than your home, and your pet may get excited and bark at other pets which can result in sore throats, tonsillitis and/or tracheobronchitis, so please understand that these problems can occur beyond the control of the facility. Our facility is air conditioned in the summer and heated in the winter and dogs are walked by our caring kennel technicians at least 3-4 times daily.

12. In order to provide the best service for you and your pet we ask that you please call and inform us if your pick-up day changes in any way.
