Help with this tool

Check the facility rules first

Boarding providers differ on vaccination records, medication packaging, food containers, bedding, toys, drop-off windows, and pickup authorization. Confirm the current rules before deciding what to pack.

Label each consumable

Use the pet's name, the date or meal, and the exact amount. Keep medication in original labeled packaging unless the facility gives different written instructions.

Pack a clear handoff, not a suitcase

Comfort items can help, but some facilities restrict loose toys or bedding. Bring what has been approved, plus enough food and medication for the stay and a reasonable reserve.
