Pet Boarding FAQs

Is Veterinary Supervision Provided During Boarding?

Our veterinarian is on-site and oversees all care during your pet’s stay. This is particularly important for pets with medical needs or chronic conditions. Having access to a veterinarian near you provides peace of mind and allows us to act quickly in the event of a health concern. Our clinic is well-prepared to handle routine care and unexpected issues while your pet is boarding.

How Should I Prepare My Pet for Boarding?

Before boarding, we recommend bringing your pet for a wellness check and making sure vaccinations are up to date. You can also bring familiar items from home, such as a favorite blanket or toy, to help reduce stress. If your pet is on medication, our team will follow instructions carefully and keep records of all treatments. Preparing ahead of time helps your pet settle in more comfortably.

What If My Pet Has Special Needs?

We accommodate pets with dietary restrictions, medication schedules, and specific behavioral needs. Whether your dog requires a specific feeding plan or your cat needs daily medication, we will follow your instructions closely. Our clinic is trained to provide pet boarding for animals that require extra attention, ensuring their health and comfort throughout their stay. Communication with our team before check-in is encouraged.

How Is Dog and Cat Boarding Different?

Dog boarding typically includes outdoor walks, playtime, and social interaction, while cat boarding focuses on calm, quiet surroundings. Dogs are housed in individual kennels with room to move, and we give them multiple chances each day to stretch their legs. Cats are provided with cozy, low-stress enclosures away from canine activity. Each species receives care tailored to their comfort and behavior.

What Makes Our Boarding Facility Stand Out?

At Dessau Veterinary Clinic, pet boarding is managed with the same level of care we provide during regular veterinary visits. Our team is experienced in observing behavior, addressing stress, and recognizing early signs of illness. With a veterinarian supervising each stay, your pet benefits from both comfort and expert oversight. This level of attention sets us apart from standard boarding options.

  • "Dr. Campbell and all her coworkers are awesome! Mary remembers how each of my cats react when they come in to visit and even though they are very scared her and Dr. Campbell do everything they can to make it go as smoothly as possible for them. Even if I move out of the Dessau area I will continue to bring my cats here!"
