Dog & Cat Boarding | Aardvark Animal Hospital

Boarding

We offer boarding for dogs, cats, and many other pets. In the past we have cared for birds, hermit crabs, guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, and bearded dragons.
Our attentive staff will always go the extra mile to provide a safe environment that is comfortable and emotionally supportive of your pet’s needs. We know how important it is for you to be assured that while you are away, your pet is enjoying the best care in a secure environment. Our boarding areas are designed to make their stay away from home a fun experience. Our cat boarding area and dog boarding area are on separate sides of the hospital to keep your pet’s happy. We also keep classical music playing in the boarding areas.
