K9 Resort & Spa Offers Quality, Comfortable Dog Boarding

Dog owners who have to go out of town often feel anxious about leaving their pets at a pet boarding facility. However, a good facility understands the needs of dogs that are away from their owners and their homes and ensures they provide the extra love and attention these animals need. At K9 Resort & Spa in Escondido, CA, we make sure your dog is safe and well cared for while you’re away. 

What to Look for In A Quality Pet Boarding Facility

Pet owners want to find the best facility for their pets. Referrals are a good way to know if a boarding facility has high standards of care for their charges. But you should always visit the facility yourself.  Notice the general impression you get from the place. Is it well-lit and clean? Is it free of bad odors? Is sufficient staff on hand to care for the animals? Does the facility require vaccinations to prevent the transmission of disease? Is the facility secure, so that no animals can accidentally escape? Is there a standardized intake and release protocol in place? What does the facility do if a dog gets sick during its stay?

Preparing Your Dog for A Boarding Experience

Dog owners should make sure their pet is in good physical condition. A check-up at the veterinarian, along with updates to vaccinations, is recommended dog boarding begins. Label and package your dog’s food, so your dog won’t have to deal with an upset stomach from unfamiliar food. If your pet takes regular medication, make sure you have a sufficient amount and make sure it is clearly labeled. If your pet is particularly anxious, you may want to arrange an overnight stay at our boarding facility before your trip to familiarize your pet with the place and our staff.
