Paws and Claws offers doggie daycare, short term and long term boarding stays, and cat care services for your special pet.

The first requirement consists of a Consultation with you and your pet. Consultations are by appointment only and typically take 30-45 minutes. At that time, you will be given paperwork to be completed and returned on your pets first stay. We will also need a current copy of your pets immunization records, including Bordella (kennel cough shot), and an indication of whether your pet is fixed. We do take puppies, but require that by 6-7 months of age they are fixed.

The only time that clients are allowed in the play yard are at the consultation. We have found that it is too much on the “pack” to have visitors in and out throughout the day. When dropping off your pet, please be sure to make your exit timely, so the dogs can begin their day promptly. Expect pick up to be 5-10 minutes so we can discuss your pets stay and any issues, injuries or events that occurred. The dogs at Paws and Claws are our Top Priority. We are committed to providing you, and especially your beloved pet,  a Wonderful Experience!
