Pet Wellness
Examinations and bloodwork are recommended at least annually, but preferably semi-annually, which would be roughly the equivalent of a person being examined every 7 years.
Vaccinations
Vaccinations are recommended annually to help prevent severely debilitating and sometimes deadly diseases. Rabies vaccine includes registration with Jefferson or Orleans parish when applicable.
Boarding
The fully air-conditioned and heated boarding kennel houses pets 365 days a year. We will board dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, turtles, hamsters, gerbils, and fish. All dogs who stay for 3 nights are eligible to receive a bath before going home.
Spay & Neuter
Spaying and neutering are recommended at 6 months of age to help decrease the occurrence of many behavioral and medical problems.
Micro-chipping
Microchipping is a very reasonably priced form of permanent identification that can help in returning a lost pet to its home. Lifetime registration is included.
