Walkertown Veterinary Hospital is the perfect place for your dogs or cats to stay while you’re on vacation, traveling away from home, or for a quiet place away from a houseful of guests.
Our highly trained staff are experts at taking care of your pet’s special needs. We know what it’s like to leave a member of the family, so we make sure they feel like it’s home. And if there are anything unexpected arises, rest assured that our veterinary staff is ready to quickly get involved.
Boarding Amenities in Walkertown
For our canine guests:
Each dog will have their own comfortable run to rest in during the day. Dogs that are from the same family will have a larger space, with a door in the middle that can separate them for mealtimes.
Each dog goes on 4 leashed walks per day in our fenced dog run. We always encourage food to be brought from home, but if not, we provide wet food and dry food to our boarders.
We also offer additional one on one playtimes, nail trims, anal gland expressions and baths.
For our feline guests:
A completely separate from dogs, sound proof space is provided for our cats.
Each cat will have their own comfortable condo with one side dedicated to a litter box and the other side for a cat bed and food.
Each cat will have a rotation in our playroom during their stay. It is a much larger room with a cat tree, plenty of toys, and a large window for them to lounge in.
We always encourage cat owner’s to bring food from home (since cats can be finicky), but if not, we provide wet food and dry food for our boarding cats. We also offer additional one on one playtimes and nail trims for cats.
All pets are monitored closely day for appetite, elimination, and overall well being closely by the kennel staff. We will keep in close contact with owners if we have any concerns. We also have rounds with a doctor each morning (with the exception of Sunday mornings) to check in with them about anyone we have concerns about.
