BOARDING
Bedding and toys from home are now welcome into our facility once again!
We know that leaving your loved canine at a boarding facility with strangers can be a scary experience for both you and your pet. However, we make every animal feel cared for by giving them plenty of love, attention, exercise, and any reasonable additional accommodations that you ask of us.
We would like for Christopher Robin's to be your pet's second family! A place where they feel comfortable and at home.
OVERVIEW
Christopher Robin’s has 31 spacious suites.
Dogs boarding overnight may join group social play to stay exercised, socialized, and happy with no extra fee!
Dogs will receive lots of love and attention from the Christopher Robin’s staff.
Responsible and dependable staff to care for every dog during their stay.
Soothing music to help dogs relax and reduce anxiety.
2 potty breaks (early am, late pm) and 3 social plays throughout the day! (2 social plays on Saturday and Sunday).
Attention New Customers: If you feel your dog has any fearful tendencies or might give our staff trouble if we are trying to put a slip lead on and guide them places, please schedule a day of daycare so we can assess how your dog does with our staff. Dogs who activity avoid us can be difficult to bring in from the yard and maybe unable to board with us for that reason. This usually involves fear aggression, which can be dangerous for our staff members. If the situation warrants, we may contact you to pick up your dog.
Vaccine Requirements
Vaccination Documentation:
All vaccination records must be emailed, customer uploaded or faxed to Christopher Robin’s Pet Care prior to drop off.
All vaccination requirements must be up to date:
Rabies
DHPP/DHLPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvo)
Bordetella (“kennel cough” vaccination) Note: We require this to be done every 6 months. We allow for an additional two month grace period, meaning we would allow reservations if the bordetella is within 8 months. If it has been longer than 8 months, please update this at least two weeks before your reservation start date.
Please Note: Your dog will always have some level of risk of picking up an upper respiratory infection if he/she is in contact with other dogs in boarding or grooming facilities that are symptomatic, even without direct contact and even being up to date on the bordetella vaccine.
What to bring
Medication:
If your dog needs any medications, supplements, or has any other special needs, please notify Christopher Robin’s prior to drop off.
Any medication or supplements must include instructions for dosage.
Food:
Christopher Robin’s strongly encourages clients to bring in their own pet food. We know how sensitive a dog's stomach can be to changes in diet.
There are a couple options when considering how to pack your dog’s food for their stay. You can individually package each meal into baggies and label AM and PM if there is a difference in meals. We save these baggies so you can reuse them if you’d like. This might be helpful in portioning out the correct amount needed for the stay. You may also store dry food in 1 gallon zip lock bags, and let us know the quantity for each meal at drop off. Should you choose to not bring food or run out of food, Christopher Robin’s will supply premium grade food. Each pet will receive the appropriate amount per meal based on size, and age. Additional charges will apply for supplied food ($1.50/cup for dog food) ($3/cup for home cooked meal) *Note: We only give home cooked meals if your dog is not eating anything else. We do not keep these ingredients on hand as this rarely happens and requires a special trip to the store.
Toys and Bedding:
Toys and bedding are now able to come into the facility. If you believe a bed and toy or two from home would make for a better boarding stay you are welcome to bring them with you. If you would rather leave the bedding and toys at home, we have beds we can provide and toys available during play time.
Dogs:
All guests must be free of any contagious conditions. If your dog was at another facility where they could have been exposed to something please notify us when making a reservation. If your dog is new to the family (purchased, adopted or rescued) they must be in the household for at least two weeks before coming into the facility for daycare or boarding.
