"We keep Tails Wag Inn"
Reserve Early
Be sure to make your reservations early. We tend to book quickly during holidays, vacation times (such as Christmas, Spring Break, and July 4th), and during the summer months.. To schedule boarding, simply call ahead to make reservations or make a reservation online.
Preparing Your Pet
Don't overfeed your pet prior to boarding or going on a trip. This can result in an upset stomach since pets can become excited when they are leaving home or riding in a car.
If you pet suffers from "separation anxiety," you may consider short overnight stays at the pet resort prior to an extended stay.
As a rule, kittens adapt easily to boarding and exploring their new surroundings. Adult cats prefer to quietly "observe" daily happenings as they would in a window at home.
Your Separation Anxiety
Pets can sense your anxiety, so your being calm and comfortable helps them feel a sense of comfort. Try to relax and enjoy your getaway!
Remember, your pet is in good hands, is enjoying a new outing, and will probably receive as much or even more attention than they normally would at home!
Communication
Be sure to let us know any special needs or problems your pet may have, such as hearing loss, fear of thunder or fire works, excessive barking, allergies, aggression problems, etc. This ensures that we are able to provide the best care possible.
Make sure you know your travel and boarding dates. Let us know the day/date/time you intend to drop off your pet and the day/date/time you intend to pick up. Be sure to have contact numbers where you can be reached while away in case of an emergency or just for a question.
Health & Vaccination Records
We ask that you have your vet fax vaccination records to us at (503) 554-1542
prior to your arrival to speed up the check-in process.
Bedding & Toys
If your pet has special bedding, please bring it, but we ask that you provide bedding that can be laundered if needed. Bring special toys or anything else that will make your pet feel at home.
We've found, through experience, that certain toys can be hazardous to pets. We reserve the right to restrict any toys or treats that may harm your pet.
Medications
From our own experience we know there are times when a pet may need medication. Be sure to bring any special medicines your pet is currently taking along with dosing directions and any special instructions your vet may have provided.
Food
If your pet is on a special diet, please bring your own food and any special feeding instructions. Otherwise, we provide a high-quality, nutritionally balanced Diamond Brand dog food.
