Policies

To ensure the comfort and safety of our furry guests as well as our staff, we have outlined policies that must be adhered to by all guests of American Boarding Kennels.
Boarding times
Boarding charges begin on the day of drop off regardless of time. Pets picked up prior to 1pm are not charged for that day.
Late/Early Pick-Up/Drop-Off can be arranged for an additional fee.

Arrangements must be made in advance and are at the sole discretion of American Boarding Kennels.

We recommend that all pets remain on their current diet while boarding. Please bring just enough food for the stay in pre-packaged Ziploc bags per meal labeled with your pet’s name. If food is not provided, NutriSource Premium dog food will be provided at a charge of $2.50 per meal.

All prescription medications and supplements should be provided in their original containers. We will follow the instructions prescribed by the veterinarian.

Prescription medications should NOT be included/mixed in with prepackaged food. We will gladly administer any medication for a nominal charge of $1.00 per administration.

Peak times and Holiday boarding stays require a deposit of $60 per dog per reservation. Deposit is required at the time of reservation and is applied to your total upon check-out.

You do not have a confirmed reservation until your deposit is received.

There will be no refunds for cancellations during Holiday periods.

All pets must be in good general health to board and play at American Boarding Kennels. No pets exhibiting signs of serious illness, pets with contagious viruses or pets with any other potentially transferable diseases/sickness will be accepted.
We require veterinary proof of vaccinations current within one year on all dogs and cats.
  • Dogs: Rabies, DHLP, Parvo and Bordetella.
  • Cats: FVCRP, Rabies and Leukemia vaccinations.

Female dogs in season will be charged an additional $20.00 housekeeping fee and will be required to board individually.

Any dog entering the kennel with fleas and/or ticks will be charged a $50 bathing fee in addition to the cost of the bat and dip, which will be added to the boarding bill.

We highly recommend a bath and/or grooming before your pet departs from our kennel due to the amount of playtime everyone receives. Please inquire about our spa services.
Extremely dirty or matted dogs will be groomed before entering the kennel and the charge will be added to the boarding bill.
Dogs that are difficult to handle may incur an additional charge to be determined by the extra time to properly care for the dog.
American Boarding Kennels does not board aggressive dogs that are harmful to humans and reserves the right to remove a dog from our care that poses a threat to a human or dog.
For your convenience, we accept Visa, MasterCard, debit cards, cash and money orders. Fees may be paid upon drop-off or pickup.
Prices are subject to change without notice.
