Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Boarding Provider

Follow these handy tips for hiring a private pet boarding provider perfect for ensuring your furry family member is safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

1. Check Their Experience

Ask how long they’ve been boarding pets and what kinds of animals they specialize in (dogs, cats, exotics).

Look for credentials in pet CPR/first aid, animal behavior, or relevant pet care associations.

3. Tour the Boarding Environment

Visit their home or facility to confirm it’s clean, safe, and pet-friendly with secure fencing, proper ventilation, and comfortable spaces.

4. Ask About Daily Care & Routine

Understand how often pets are fed, walked, played with, and allowed outside.

Find out if pets are supervised overnight, how often they’re checked on, and how many pets are boarded at once.

Confirm vaccination requirements, flea/tick prevention, emergency protocols, and how illness or injuries are handled.

7. Discuss Special Needs Care

Read testimonials or speak with past clients to verify reliability and quality of care.
