What to Look for in a Boarding Facility

  • Staff-to-dog ratio during play and overnight supervision
  • Whether dogs sleep in individual runs, suites, or group rooms
  • Climate control and indoor/outdoor access
  • Emergency vet plan and 24/7 overnight staff
  • Webcam access so you can check in from your trip
  • Vaccine requirements — a good sign, not an inconvenience
