There is no "check-out" or "check-in" time. Pets are charged for the day they "check-in", but not for the day they "check-out". There is a minimum 3-day boarding charge in July, August and on holidays.  Pets that are picked up prior to their reserved depart date will be charged for one extra day.  To avoid this charge please notify the Golden Bone at least one day prior to checkout.
A $25 non-refundable deposit may be required for holidays and July and August boarding.
Owner must have written proof that all inoculations are current or have been received prior to boarding at The Golden Bone. These include rabies, parvo, distemper and Bordetella for dogs and rabies and distemper for cats.

We serve all Iams dry pet food products. You are welcome to bring your own food.
"CHECKING IN" - Boarding can be a very exciting and pleasant experience for your pet. It can also be stressful. To eliminate as much of this stress as possible we recommend that you make your check in as short as possible. If you are stressed, your pet will be also.
"CHECKING OUT" - Expect your pet to take a day or two to get back to normal. It is not unusual for your pet's pooping, peeing, eating, and drinking habits to be a little off the mark. Also, do not be surprised if your pet is tired when he or she gets home. Most pets are very active at The Golden Bone!
The Golden Bone does not accept any bedding from home.  Clean bedding is provided daily for your pet.  We do this because it keeps our resort cleaner and allows us to spend more time with the pets.  You may request either a hammock  bed or a lambskin mat or a combination of both.
You are welcome to bring in a few toys for your pet, but toys will not be returned at check out.
