How to Save Money at Family Pet Boarding
Schedule Regular Vet Visits
One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.
Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions
Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.
Pet Insurance
Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask
Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:
Tell me about your experience with [pet type].
Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.
How do you handle emergencies?
You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.
How do you communicate with pet owners?
Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.
Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?
Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.
Do you have any questions for me about my pet?
This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.
Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?
Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

Brittany, Paige, and Marco have been amazing with my greyhound Shaker! As a new dog owner, I really appreciated how welcoming, kind, and flexible they were while helping him adjust. They clearly care about the dogs and create a comfortable, safe environment. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Our dog Ozzie hates grooming to the point that he gets very stressed and will bite. We heard good things about Jordyn and gave it a try. She is AMAZING!!! She has a way to keep our dog calm. Yes, for now we still give him a chill pill in advance and he is muzzled when grooming but the last visit she was able to get him all groomed and she noted he didn't seem stressed. We also love that if our dog is getting stressed she will stop and continue another day so it doesn't get to be a bad experience for the dog. We absolutely 💯 recommend her. See the before and after photos!

A great establishment for daycare & boarding services. The staff are so genuine, kind & caring! They really do enjoy working with the dogs, making sure the dogs have fun, and creating a relationship with them. Definitely recommend bringing your pup here!! 😊

We have a 2 year old St. Bernard who we board with family pet boarding every time we leave town. They have always done a great job with her. They have an option to let her play with other dogs which she loves and gets lots of exercise from. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of dog boarding services.

We have two Bernese Mountain Dogs, one of whom has THICK fur, it's almost impossible to brush through it. Jordan is hands down, the BEST groomer he has ever been to. We've tried them all. Somehow she is able to work through the dense fur, clean him, make him smell amazing, then brush him out so he's a light ball of fluff. We've never had these results at any groomer, any price. After 7 years we finally found our groomer! Jordan works magic.
