Why Choose Palmer's Paws and Play

---

We offer our in-home dog boarding, doggie daycare, and drop-in cat sitting. 

Our prices vary depending on the service and your location. Please visit our pricing page or contact us for a quote.

For the safety of all pets in our care, dogs must be up to date on Rabies, Distemper/Parvo (DHPP), and Bordetella (kennel cough). Proof of vaccination is required before any boarding or daycare stay. 

Yes! We offer drop-in visits for cats only, keeping them comfortable in their own home with fresh food, water, litter care, and plenty of attention. 

Please bring you pet's food, treats,  any medications, and comfort items to help them feel at home. We provide bedding, toys, and plenty of love. While pet's toys are welcome, we can't guarantee they'll come back in one piece after playtime! 

If your dog is kennel trained, we recommend bringing it along. Kennels can provide extra comfort and a familiar, safe space for your pet.

We're a home-based environment with 24/7 care and minimal unsupervised time. Your pets are treated like family, not just boarded in a cage. 

Absolutely! We strongly encourage meet and greets so you and your pet feel comfortable before their first stay. 

We don't set a hard limit- the number of pets we host depends on their temperament and size. This way, we can make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and gets the right amount of attention. That may mean 4 dogs at a time, or 10, rest assured we never take on more pets than our home environment can safely handle. 

Yes, we request that all pets be spayed or neutered. The only exception is for puppies under one year old, as we understand they may not yet be ready for the procedure. This helps keep play safe and stress-free for all pets in our care.

Almost! While we are familiar with CPR and First Aid for pets, we are taking classes to be officially certified in these skills to give you peace of mind! 

Yes! We share our home with two dogs, Wilma and Wilbur, and two cats, Steve and Lucy. But don't worry- your pet will be loved and cared for just like they're part of our family. Not sure how your dog will do around cats? Our cats are very dog-friendly, and many pups surprise their owners during a meet and greet by adjusting quickly. We're happy to introduce everyone in a safe, relaxed way to make sure it's a good fit. 

We proudly offer discounts for First Responders, Military, and Teachers, as a thank you for all they do. Additionally, we have special offers that can be found on our social media, and discounts for boarding and drop-ins  exceeding one month.
