Boarding Services

ANIMALS WILL BE ADMITTED AND DISCHARGED ONLY
DURING THE FOLLOWING HOURS:
Monday – Friday: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Saturday: 8 a.m. to 12 noon

Boarding is not a part of veterinary medicine, but a service we are happy to offer to our clients so long as our facilities permit it.

Our hospital requires the following:

1. Animals may be admitted or discharged only during regular hospital hours. No boarders will be admitted or discharged on Sundays, holidays, or after the hospital is closed for the day.

2. For your pet’s protection, the following vaccinations are required:

a. Cats must have a current distemper/upper respiratory disease complex vaccination.
b. Dogs must be currently vaccinated foe distemper, parvovirus, and bordetella kennel cough.
c. Ferrets must be current on the canine distemper vaccine.
d. As per Illinois law, and for your pet’s and our staff’s protection, a current rabies vaccination is required of all.

3. All pets will be checked for fleas and ticks in your presence upon admittance. If fleas, flea dirt, or ticks are found, a flea/tick bath will be given and charged to your account. On the day of release, a complimentary bath will be given and your pet will be checked (with you) to assure that your pet is free of fleas, flea dirt and ticks. If any of these are found, a flea/tick bath will be provided at no charge before your pet goes home.

4. The boarding day is on a per night basis (as a motel).

5. Minimum rates per night:

$15.00 for a dog weighing up to approximately 25 pounds
$17.00 for a dog weighing approximately 25 – 60 pounds
$19.00 for a dog weighing over approximately 60 pounds
$13.00 for a cat
$13.00 for a ferret

For other species, please inquire at the reception desk.

6. Medications administered by our hospital staff will be $6.50 to $13.00 per day, depending upon the number and type of medications and ease of administration.

7. Boarding fees must be paid upon release of the pet. We accept cash, checks, Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express.

Our caring and proficient staff assures your pet of professional care and supervision.
Every precaution is taken to ensure the well-being of your pet. In the event of illness while boarding, we reserve the right to render necessary treatment and charges will be made accordingly.
