Trust is a big issue when it comes to boarding your precious furry friends. After all, you are considering leaving a member of your family with some people you just met. When it comes time to part ways with him, are you going to have peace of mind? Here are a few things to look out for that might help.

1. Clean Front Room

[highlight align=”left, right, center” style=”default, different”]A clean entry way into the kennel is always a good minor indication that the staff take’s proper sanitation measures. Ask about how often kennels are cleaned and maintained. Sanitation is most crucial to help prevent the spread of disease and illness among dogs in overnight boarding and daycare. Sniff around and make sure they clean the place up regularly.[/highlight]

2. Friendly Staff

[highlight align=”left, right, center” style=”default, different”]Your first impression of the staff is also a good indicator of the kind of treatment you can expect for your dog during his stay. Staff should have a warm and inviting demeanor, but also professional. A willingness to address your questions and concerns in a professional manner is a minimum requirement. Remember, dog boarders have the best job in the world! This should be apparent from the get go![/highlight]

3. Vaccine Requirements
