A Home Away From Home
We know it's stressful to leave your pet while you're away. We're here to help put your mind at ease. Crossroads Animal Clinic offers a spacious boarding facility which is the perfect place for your dog or cat to stay when you're out of town.
We provide complete general boarding services for all of our patients, and medical boarding services for pets with conditions standard boarding centers may not be equipped to accommodate.
Kindly be informed that reservations are a prerequisite for boarding. We kindly request that you contact us for any requests or inquiries you may have.
Boarding: A Typical Day
Dogs
When your pet stays with us, he or she receives frequent walks and play time at additional costs, as well as lots of tender loving care from our specially trained staff. Their kennels are cleaned, disinfected, and stocked with fresh linens daily.
Your dog will also have supervision throughout their entire stay with us – both during walks and while they rest. In the evening, dinner is served, and then we have one last walk before bedtime.
Medical Boarding
Your pet will be supervised by our expert veterinarians and nurses, who will administer medications and watch over them closely. Any required medications will be administered to your pet on the same schedule they are used to at home.

How should I prepare for my pet's stay?
All boarding guests must have up-to-date vaccinations, including vaccinations against kennel cough within the last six months. Pets visiting Crossroads Animal Clinic must also be flea-free. If your pet is not current with his or her vaccinations, we can vaccinate him or her at an additional charge.
Each animal is different. To prepare for your pet's stay with us, we'll take the following steps to ensure that we can meet their unique needs.
Step 1: Contact us to get started
Call us to book, and to discuss details about your pet and your boarding needs. A member of our team will be happy to coordinate your booking.
Please note that, due to the nature of our accommodations, we do not accept unaltered dogs. Pets must be up to date with all vaccinations and free of fleas and ticks to stay at our facility.
Step 2: Book a trial stay
We want to be absolutely sure that we are a good fit for your pet before an extended stay. The trial stay consists of a full day of daycare where we can take the time to assess your pet's temperament and make sure they fit in with the pack.
Step 3: Set your pet up for success
On the day you drop your pet off with us, there are a few steps you can take to help reduce any stress your pet may feel.
Spend some extra time with your pet beforehand, and make sure they get some vigorous exercise so that they are feeling calm. When you arrive at our facility, stay calm, cheerful and confident during the separation.
