A Home Away From Home
We understand that it can be stressful to have to leave your pet behind if you need to go out of town — especially when they are recovering from a procedure or surgery, or if they are ill. At Bear Creek Veterinary Hospital, our team wants to help ease your worries.

Dog & Cat Boarding: A Typical Day
Dogs
Every morning, the dogs head outside for an outdoor run to enjoy some fresh air before eating breakfast. Kennels are cleaned, disinfected, and stocked with fresh linens while they are outside.
Dogs who are physically able will be walked by our staff on a regular basis.
Your dog will be supervised throughout their entire stay with us — both during walks and while they are resting. Dinner is served in the evening before the dogs are taken on a final walk before they go to bed.
Cats
Your cat will be fed according to your specifications and their requirements to make sure their routine mimics their time at home as closely as possible.
The kitties receive daily one-n-one interaction (if they want it), including pets, snuggles, and play. Litter boxes are checked, disinfected, and cleaned periodically during the day.
We also refresh linens and clean your cat's room daily. Our cat boarding area is separated from the dog area to ensure your kitty feels safe and relaxed during their time with us.
