Hospital-Level Care When Your Pet Can’t Stay Anywhere Else
Some pets need more than what a traditional boarding facility or a pet sitter can safely provide. If your pet has a medical condition, is recovering from surgery, or requires close monitoring, our hospital offers medically supervised boarding in a fully staffed veterinary emergency setting.
This service is designed for pets who need professional medical oversight—not just a place to stay.
Who This Service Is For
Medically supervised boarding may be the right option if your pet:
- Has a chronic medical condition requiring close monitoring
- Is recovering from surgery or anesthesia
- Is prone to overheating, breathing difficulties, or sudden changes in condition
- Requires frequent medications or special care
- Would be unsafe or stressed in a traditional boarding environment
If you’re unsure whether your pet is a good candidate, our medical team is happy to discuss your pet’s needs with you.
What Makes This Different from Boarding
Your pet stays inside our veterinary hospital, in a special section of the ICU, not a kennel or private home.
During their stay, your pet receives:
- 24/7 veterinary supervision, including a veterinarian on site at all times
- Regular monitoring of vital signs as medically indicated
- Professional administration of medications and treatments
- Immediate medical attention if a problem arises
- A quiet, climate-controlled environment with indoor relief options
- Compassionate care from trained veterinary professionals
This is not a substitute for routine boarding—it is hospital-level care for pets who truly need it.
Peace of Mind for You
We understand how stressful it can be to leave a medically complicated pet behind. With medically supervised boarding, you can:
- Travel when necessary without burdening family or friends
- Know your pet is being cared for by a professional veterinary team
- Call any time for updates on your pet’s condition
- Drop off or pick up your pet at any time of day or night
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and medical needs are our priority.
Cost of Medically Supervised Boarding
The cost for medically supervised boarding is $147 per 24-hour period.
This fee reflects the level of medical oversight, continuous staffing, monitoring, and immediate access to veterinary care that only a hospital environment can provide. Additional medical treatments or diagnostics, if needed, are discussed with you in advance whenever possible.
Is This the Right Option for Your Pet?
Medically supervised boarding is intended for a small number of pets with special medical needs. Not every pet requires this level of care—and that’s okay.
