Dog Boarding Checklist: Before, During and After Your Dog’s Stay

Key takeaways

  • Before: up-to-date vaccines, a daycare day first, food and medication packed; first stays arrive before 3 pm.
  • During: watch the daily updates and tell us early if plans change; boarding is charged per 24 hours.
  • After: tiredness and extra drinking are usually signs of fun; contact your vet if your dog stops eating or seems unwell.

Before check-in

  • Vaccines: rabies and core vaccines must be current — unvaccinated dogs can’t board or attend daycare with us.
  • Daycare first: first-timers and nervous dogs should visit for a day; some must complete a daycare assessment.
  • Food and medication: bring your dog’s usual food, with feeding amounts and medication times written down.
  • Documents: the original vet-stamped vaccination booklet and a copy of your ID or driver’s licence.
  • Habits: tell us what your dog fears, loves and any special needs.
  • Timing: first stays arrive before 3 pm; no check-ins 12:00–2:00 pm.

During the stay

  • Watch for daily photo and video updates on LINE.
  • Boarding is charged per 24 hours; extra time is charged as daycare, and over 12 extra hours counts as another night.
  • If plans change, tell us early and we’ll extend the stay.
  • Dogs not collected within 48 hours of the agreed time without contact are treated as abandoned and reported to the authorities.

Back home

  • Extra tired and sleepy: usually a sign of a fun stay.
  • Drinking more: common after a busy stay.
  • Excited or clingy for a bit: give them a day or two.
  • Not eating, vomiting, diarrhoea or seeming unwell for a while: contact your vet.
