Frequently Asked Questions, Pet Boarding in Taylorville, IL

Why do we charge for Sundays?

Even though our facility is closed on Sundays, we still provide a checkout time as a courtesy to our clients. We understand how excited pet owners want to get to their furry children. Our staff begins nurturing the pet guests at 8 a.m. and again in the late afternoon, so before you arrive at our checkout time we have let them run around outside twice, fed them twice, and cleaned their kennel areas and bedding as needed. These are the services that you are being charged for when your pet stays until Sunday at 4:30 p.m.

Can my pet board for a long period of time?

At our facility, boarding is indefinite. If your pet is staying over 30 days, we must have a credit card on file to be charged for when those 30 days are up and every 30 days after that.

Can all my pets stay together in the same run?

We can allow pets with the same owners to stay together in the same run, as space allows. If you want them in separate runs, we like to still put them in the pins side by side so they are familiar to their furry neighbor. The price for pets to be in the same pins or not does not change.

Are we allowed to bring our pet’s bedding and/or toys?

You’re welcome to bring one or two toys from home for your pet’s stay. However, we do not accept bedding or blankets from home. Our clinic provides clean, comfortable bedding for all pets. If you bring toys, please label each item with your last name using permanent marker. While we do our best to return all belongings, items can occasionally be misplaced during play or laundry. If you prefer, we also have toys available to help keep your pet entertained.

Can I bring my pet’s food?

Yes! We highly recommend that you bring your pet’s food (especially if they are on a special diet) because pets can have a sensitive digestive system when there is a sudden change to their diet, which can lead to loose stool and discomfort. However, if you do not want to bring your own food or you forget, we keep food in stock and there is a $5 charge per day. Also, feel free to bring treats.

Do the kennels have heating and cooling?

Our facility is air-conditioned during the summer and heated in the winter to make our guests feel as comfortable as possible. We maintain a safe, climate-controlled environment year-round so your pets can relax and feel at home, no matter the weather.

What if my pet requires medication to be administered?

Our staff is well equipped to administer any kind of medication (oral and injectable) to all patients. Please provide us with a schedule for when the medications are to be given and any tips or tricks you may use for administration to make it as stress-free as possible for both your pet and our staff. There is a $15 medication administration fee that is a flat fee, regardless of the length of the stay.
