Our Boarding Requirements:

Pet Health Requirements:

For the health and safety of our guests, boarded pets must be current in the following vaccinations and screenings. We reserve the right to refuse pets lacking proof of current vaccinations.

Canine Guests

  • Distemper/Parvo vaccination
  • Rabies vaccination
  • Bordetella vaccination
  • Canine Influenza Virus (CIV) vaccination
  • Monthly flea/tick prevention

Feline Guests

  • FVRCP vaccination
  • Rabies vaccination
  • Monthly flea/tick prevention

Important for you to know:

  • We accept pets younger than 4 months old; however, the animal must have completed their full vaccination series.
  • We offer boarding for a variety of species. Please call us to inquire.
  • We require that you maintain a monthly flea/tick prevention to protect the facility and other pet guests.
  • Food: We provide Science Diet Healthy Advantage, but you are welcome to provide your pet’s own food. If you are bringing your own food, please package food in individual zip-top bags as needed for the entire boarding time. Each bag needs to be labeled with the guest’s name and time of dining. Please do not bring giant food bags unless your pet is staying longer than two weeks.
  • SRVC requests that personal belongings such as toys, blankets, and bedding NOT be left for your pet. SRVC is not responsible for them becoming lost, broken, soiled, or damaged. Thank you for understanding. 
  • We will administer medications during your pets stay if required. Please bring enough of your pet’s medication to cover your stay. We require that you bring the medication labeled with the administration instructions.
  • Pets can be dropped off any time during our regular business hours: Monday–Friday 7:30 a.m.- 6:00 p.m., Saturday 8:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. Pets must be picked up on the last day of boarding by 2:30 p.m. or a charge will be incurred for that day.
  • We offer multiple discounts for pets sharing the same kennel. The first pet’s rate is the full price and the second pet is 50% off.
  • Our hospital is equipped with a commercial-grade generator. In the event of a power outage, our generator will run the entire facility including HVAC (heating and air system), lights, security system, and controlled entry.

Please Note: Your pets must be picked up by 2:30 p.m., or you will be charged for that day.

Board your pet and reduce travel stress and anxiety

You can reduce your travel stress and anxiety by boarding your dog or cat in our safe, clean, and comfortable environment. We offer a good solution for pets with special needs–health issues, medication, or special diet–as our boarding accommodations are near the vet’s office and our staff are professional and friendly. Additionally, our staff has the expertise to immediately spot it if your pet is sick or in distress. We do not believe pet boarding is, or should be, one-size-fits-all, so we individualize the care to your pet’s age, level of activity, etc. We take special requests (do tell us if your dog has traits in common with Houdini) and board both dogs and cats. You can trust us to give your pet the finest care and attention it requires.

Curious about our amenities and accommodations? For the safety of our team as a result of the Covid pandemic, we no longer offer in-person boarding facility tours. BUT, we have included a photo tour of our facility at the bottom of this page, and you are welcome to contact us to so we can answer all of your questions. 


Our facility is clean, comfortable, and designed to be the best place for your pet to stay while you are on the road.


Your pet’s care should not be a source of anxiety and uncertainty when travel already comes with its own stresses. Let SRVC take your pet’s health and safety off of your worry list! 

What Our Clients Say

C. Mayfield

I have seen a lot of changes since I have been a client at Shackleford Veterinarian Clinic since 1996. The best change of all was when Dr. Barron started. You will not find a better veterinarian or staff!

Tiffany Williams

SRVC answered all of my questions and even allowed me to come back after my appointment to update and add information to my pet's health certificate. I would highly recommend this vet to anyone. They go above and beyond expectation.

Ashley Hurst

I will forever be thankful that Dr. Barron was recommended by my neighbor! My pets have been treated at several different veterinary clinics, but no one

has ever compared to Dr. Barron. The front desk staff and vet techs could not be kinder!
