FAQs All our guests live inside our home and become part of our family. They will be warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There is plenty of space for the dogs to play inside and outside, and we will cater to their eating and sleeping habits. Yes. There will be a $5 a day surcharge during holiday peak time as shown below:
A deposit is required for any Holiday boarding reservation. This will ensure your dog will have a place to stay while you are traveling or on vacation. The deposit is deducted from your dogs stay when you pick him/her up. Yes, we will administer your dog’s medication. Please bring the medication in the original prescription bottle. Please see our medication permission form.
Yes. If you pet is staying with us more than 10 days, 10% off regular daily rate will apply beginning on the 11th day.
We specialize in boarding small dogs. We may watch a medium size dog with evaluation and if they have a low energy level.
Yes. We have an outdoor play area which is fenced in.
We do not provide any pick-up or drop-off services, at this time.
No. Your dog will be playing all day (inside and outside) thus getting plenty of exercise.
No. We have plenty of room in our ranch style home, and we have part of the yard fenced in. Your dog will live with our dogs and play together just like they would do at home.
Our boarding rates are here. We have a discount for a second dog. The daily rate is based on 10 a.m. to 10 a.m. stay. This flat rate includes everything your dog will need and want. It includes playtime, feedings, medications, and any other special needs your dog may have.
You will be required to complete the following forms: Boarding Service Agreement, Veterinarian Release, Dog Boarding Information Sheet, and Medication Permission slip (if needed). These forms can be found under the Forms tab. You will also need to bring proof of vaccinations.
During bad weather we will not take your dog out. If potty breaks are needed, we will wait until there is a lull in the weather, if it is raining or snowing.
We take cash or check. Payment is expected before services are rendered. If paying by check and the check is returned, there will be a $25.00 fee.
Our drop-off and pick up times are as follows:
We understand you want to see your dog as soon as you get back so we will be as flexible as we can.
The pre-visit will provide us the opportunity to evaluate your dog. As this is a private home, it is important for the health and safety of all concerned that dogs do not have aggressive tendencies, show excessive shyness, become toy possessive, display an overly territorial nature, or become stressed in new situations. We will also review all forms and proof of vaccinations. Your dog will also meet our dogs.
We require 48 hours notice for boarding reservations. Cancellations made less then 48 hours will incur a $25.00 cancellation fee.
We ask that you bring a sufficient supply of your own dog food. Along with the food, please bring your dog’s favorite treats. If your dog eats ‘people’ food, no reason to have a concern. You may bring pre-cooked meals in individual freezer bags. Our goal is to keep your dog on a normal eating routine. We encourage you to bring any favorite toys, blanket, pillow and bed. These items will make your dog’s stay more comfortable and familiar.
We require rabies and distemper.
You will be asked to complete a Veterinarian Release form. You will be giving your consent for us to properly care for your dog in an emergency. You will provide us with an emergency contact as well as the veterinarian of your choice. If for any reason your dog will need medical attention, we will contact the veterinarian of your choice and follow proper instructions for transporting your dog. You will be called immediately. If we are unable to contact your veterinarian, we will take your dog to the nearest animal hospital. All charges incurred will be the responsibility of the dog’s owner. Your dog will go potty outside in the fenced-in area. If your dog has accidents at home and uses Wee Wee pads, we ask that you bring a supply.
Your dog will sleep in our home wherever they are the happiest. If they are use to sleeping in a crate, we ask that you bring it. Each dog has their own preference, and we will accommodate them including sleeping with us in our king size bed. For the protection of all the dogs that board with us, we ask that your dog be on a flea and tick protection program. This will avoid any outbreak of fleas and ticks.
Dogs that are not spayed or neutered can exhibit behavior that we do not tolerate. Problems such as marking, dogs in heat, aggressiveness, territorial actions, etc. make this a risk to other dogs that we cannot permit.
Yes, but we require the puppy be at least four months old. This will ensure the puppy has been appropriately vaccinated.
We will not call you unless there is an emergency. However, please feel free to call any time to check on your dog.

“Yorkie loved your yard and sleeping on the couch with your Bichons, who were so friendly and calm with him. I will recommend Paws for The Night to my friends who spend their vacations worrying about their pets! The peace of mind you provide helped us really enjoy being away. Thank you from us and Yorkie!!”
