It is our goal to keep your pet safe. If we find that your pet is breaking off parts of a toy or tearing apart a towel, blanket, or bed we will remove it and return it to you upon your return. Priority Boarding is not responsible for any items brought by the owner for boarding.

Medication While Boarding: We feel that it is vital to continue medications prescribed by your veterinarian. We can, at your request, administer medications as directed. Service fees apply for any injections or more than 2 oral or topically administrations per day.

Check-out: If you are returning via the airport, you will need to confirm your arrival with a text when you land. If you are not traveling by air, please text your planned dismissal time 1 hour prior to pick-up. This allows the staff to walk your pet, gather their belongings and review charges prior to your arrival. We look forward to a fast and easy dismissal so that you can get home quickly.

Food Policy: We feel that it is vital that your pet receive the same amount and type of food that he/she eats at home while boarding. Please bring individual meals in zip-lock bags labelled with date and time for feeding or cans with instructions. By abiding by this request, we will be better able to determine if your pet is eating well while boarding.  If you forget your pet’s food at home, we will provide a high-quality food while boarding.

Daily food cost start at $2.00/meal. If you fail to bring your pet’s regular food, your pet will be at risk to illness from an abrupt food change. Any food allergies must be noted in the medical alert area of this registration.

Grooming Policy: In the event that you admit your pet with matts, fleas, ticks, or a dirty coat we will groom him/her prior to allowing access to the boarding suites. Grooming and parasite treatment fees apply.

Illness Upon Entry: We will not accept a pet for boarding that is obviously ill or suffering in pain. Other problems that will not allow pet into the facility boarding:

• Coughing
• Severe lameness 
• Bleeding
• Vomiting/diarrhea
• Advanced sign of age
• Evidence of a large mass/tumor or other conditions of illness

If you have no ability to take your pet to your veterinarian prior to boarding, we do have a concierge fee for transporting your pet to a full- service veterinary facility at your expense. Also, we can professionally evaluate your pet clinically and make recommendations for further diagnostics and/or therapy. Owner agrees to pay all fees associated with this level of care.

Illness After Entry: If your pet becomes ill while boarding our staff will notify Dr. Buzzetti and he will assess the condition. You will be notified prior to any diagnostics or therapy being given. Service fees apply.

Emergency Care: In the event your pet becomes ill or is injured you agree to have our staff provide medical care and/or transport your pet to a facility of our choosing for appropriate medical/surgical care. We will attempt to contact you or your emergency contact backup.  You agree to reimburse Priority Boarding for all expenses incurred and service fees that apply. In the unlikely event of your pet’s demise, we will notify you immediately and take him/her to a facility for holding until you return.

Grounds for Dismissal: From time to time there may be a dog or cat that rejects being in the boarding environment. For this reason, we retain the ability to deny further boarding or daycare at the discretion of the facility owners and management.

Neutering Policy: New science has proven that it is better to allow a large breed dog to remain intact until 18 months of age for better bone development and to decrease a variety of orthopedic issues. With that said, we allow intact male dogs that are not aggressive and intact females to board only in specific Luxury or Sanctuary suites. There may be additional charges in either case.

Home Harmless Clause: \Owner\ is responsible for the actions/behaviors of their pets at all times while at the facility and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Priority Boarding and Daycare and its employees, owners, and guests for all claims of injury, expense, costs, or damages caused by the action or conduct of all potentially involved in the care of \Pet name\ while at Priority Boarding and Daycare.
