Pet Boarding While on Vacation: What to Know Before You Go | Snug Pet Resort

Planning a vacation? Great! But wait—what about your furry BFF? Cue the dramatic slow-motion scene where your dog stares at you with those “Don’t leave me!” eyes or your cat pretends not to care (but totally does).

We get it. Leaving your pet behind is tough. But it doesn’t have to feel like you’re abandoning them to a Lord of the Flies situation. That’s where we come in!

The Do’s and Don’ts of Leaving Your Pet While on Vacation

DO tour the facility.
Check out the vibe. Are the animals happy? Is it clean? Are there people actually interacting with the pets—or is it more “motel” than “resort”? At Snug, we offer full tours so you can meet our team and see where your pet will be snoozing, playing, and maybe even getting a pup cup.

DON’T assume all boarding is the same.
Big box boarding facilities can sometimes be more bark than bite. You want somewhere with personality—and a pulse after 6 PM. (Yep, we’re staffed 24/7 because accidents don’t care about office hours.)

DO ask about medical care.
We’re not just a resort—we’re also a state-of-the-art animal hospital. That means if your pet needs care, it’s right here. No panicked transport. No waiting. No worries. Bonus? We offer a health guarantee, so your pet’s well-being is top priority even while you’re sipping piña coladas on the beach.

DON’T forget your pet’s personality.
Does your dog love to play? Need a little alone time? Is your cat basically the CEO of their own company? We tailor their stay to fit them—playgroups, private time, cuddle sessions, or just the occasional “paw-dicure.”

DO check vaccine policies.
We take health and safety seriously, and that starts with prevention. All pets staying at Snug must be current on essential vaccinations. It’s one of the ways we ensure a healthy, happy environment for every tail-wagger and whisker-face in our care.
