Boarding One Day or Long-Term

Boarding guests may arrive between 7:30 AM and 6:00 PM Monday through Friday and 8:00 AM to 12:00 noon Saturday.

Our fees are by the night, just like a hotel β€” not by the day, like many other boarding and pet lodging facilities. We feed Hill's Science Diet and Prescription Diets, and if your pet has special dietary needs, let us know. If an owner chooses, he can bring in a different food for his pet, which we will gladly use.

Why Board Your Pet With Us?

  1. We love your pets like they are our own!
  2. We are a veterinary hospital, so if your pet needs medical attention, he/she can get it while you are away.
  3. We have staff hired and trained specifically to work with our boarding guests.
  4. Boarding reservations are easy to make β€” call (816) 741-8338, stop in, or submit the Boarding Request for Service and Directions Form.
  5. We offer climate-controlled indoor boarding.
  6. Our standard fee includes 2 daily individual leash "hand walkings" inside a secured, fenced-in area where your pet is on a leash and the only pet with the attendant.
  7. Each pet has their own boarding space or run so their food and water intake can be monitored and any sign of illness is caught immediately.
  8. We have pets who stay with us for a day, and pets who stay for months while their owners are out of the country.
  9. We have strict rules regarding vaccinations, worming, and flea and tick control for the safety of your pets, our staff, and your family.
  10. We can provide other services while your pet is boarding β€” from vaccinations to nail trims to spay/neuter surgeries to teeth cleanings.
  11. Dogs are given a special "boarding guest bath" before they leave β€” bathed and brushed (15 minutes included) at a greatly reduced price.
  12. Dogs are sent home on a hospital leash with a seasonally appropriate bandana, and cats can have a bandana too!
  13. And the main reason you should let your pet be "our guest" is because we give them LOTS OF TLC!
