Proof of Vaccines - All pets boarding at Pet Paradise  must be up to date on the required inoculations. Proof of vaccines must be presented in the form of a receipt from the veterinary hospital or a travel health certificate. No other forms will be accepted. For best protection, updated vaccines should be done at least one week prior to boarding. Dogs must be current on Distemper (DHLPP), Rabies and Bordetella. Cats must be current on Distemper (FCP), and Rabies. We recommend that all pets are up to date on flea and tick prevention all year round.


Medication- Any prescriptions provided by the owner to be administered by the Kennel must be clearly marked with the medication name, strength, dosage, and prescribing veterinarian. Please do not put prescriptions in with food.

Food &Treats - We feed Pedigree Mealtime small crunchy bites. Canned food is available if needed. We have hard and soft treats available if needed. *If you bring your own food please have it pre-packaged in daily portions to assure we are feeding your exact amount.

Bedding - The kennel supplies all beds and bedding. If bedding is left, it will not be returned to you because of the volume of laundry we do each day. There is no way to keep track of individual pieces so we kindly ask that you leave these items at home.

Toys - All toys should be labeled with your pet’s name. We will do the best we can to return your pets toys at check out however, we cannot guarantee the return of toys as they sometimes get separated from the pet when cleaning out the kennels each day.

Bathing & Grooming - Any pet scheduled for either a bath and brush or a grooming may be done on their outdate. We request that you call the kennel to make sure your pet has been finished before you come to pick them up. We can set it up so we call you when your pet is ready for pick up. In the event you need to pick up 1st thing in the morning when we open, we can schedule the bath/groom for the night before.

Holiday & Peak Season Reservations - Holiday and peak season spots fill quickly. By the beginning of November we are usually booked for Thanksgiving and Christmas books up shortly after that. When kids are out of school, we book up quickly. The weekends book quickly in the summertime. If you have booked a space at holiday or peak season and need to cancel, please call, we will have people on our waiting list that will be grateful.
