Red Flags: What To Avoid

General dog boarding and franchise kennels have been around for years but something started to shift in the pet care community and raised the question:

“Is this as good as it gets?”

Thankfully, a line of trailblazers before us refused to accept the norm and instead normalized a better boarding option- Home Based Dog Boarding. In the pet care industry, advertisement is focused on appealing to the human instead of the biological needs/preferences of the species being cared for. If you want to provide your pup with the best boarding experience, watch for some of these red flags before booking their next overnight:

● Rubber or concrete rooms that lack stimulation

● A room filled with dogs with no ‘safe spaces’ or an area for them to self regulate

● No engaging objects/toys

● No natural elements

● No comfortable places or bedding for pups to relax on

● No noise control

● No behavioral coaching (during or outside of playgroups)
