Pet Boarding in Norfolk, VA

Pet Boarding at Dog & Cat Hospital

Your pet's comfort and well-being are our top priorities.

Our dedicated staff uses their knowledge of animal care to keep your pet healthy and happy during their stay.

We offer separate boarding facilities for cats and dogs so our feline friends can have a little peace and quiet during their stay.

Food will be provided for your pet during their stay, we feed a sensitive stomach dry diet in an attempt to avoid any stomach distress while away from home. If your pet requires a specialized diet due to health issues, please bring enough with your pet so that it can continue on the same diet for the duration of its stay.

Medications will be administered as directed. There is an additional charge for the daily administration of medications, injections, or special care.

If you would like for your pet to have a bath the day of pick up, please notify the receptionist when dropping off your pet. Bathing is done in the mornings (Monday-Friday) and is available for pets who are expected to be picked up after 12:00pm.

Why Board Your Pet at a Veterinary Practice?

Boarding your pet at a veterinary practice offers added peace of mind while you’re away. At Dog & Cat Hospital, your pet’s health and safety are always our top priorities.

• Medical oversight: All medications are administered by trained veterinary professionals. If your pet needs immediate medical attention, our veterinarians and medical team are onsite to respond quickly.
• Vaccinations handled in-house: If your pet requires updated vaccinations prior to boarding, we can take care of those needs before their stay. When possible, we recommend allowing two weeks between vaccination and boarding.
• Access to veterinary services: Wellness exams or other medical services can be scheduled during your pet’s stay if needed.
• Open communication: Our team is always happy to answer questions about our boarding facilities, policies, and your pet’s individual care plan.
