Question 1

My pet is going to board for several days. What do I need to bring?

Accepted Answer

We ask that you bring their food and bedding. Please bring an extra day worth of food and medication in case your travel plans change. You may also bring toys or treats that will stay in their crates. We supply the crates and bowls.  Please label everything you bring for your dog.

Question 2

What if my pet becomes ill at Ultimutt?

Accepted Answer

We will try to use your veterinarian if your pet is feeling under the weather. If that is not available, we will call you to see what you would like us to do. If you are not reachable, we will treat your dog as our own and ensure they get medical attention.

Question 3

What's the boarding schedule for my dog?

Accepted Answer

We offer daycare Monday - Thursday that is included in the boarding price. We come in early to let the boarders have some extra loving and to go out to potty. The daycare dogs start coming in about 7:00 am. We are inside/outside (depending on the weather) all morning playing. At lunch, we put the boarders and daycare dogs up for lunch in their individual crates. We give them a couple hours to eat, rest, and digest their food. They are out the rest of the afternoon playing with their friends. The boarders get put up about 5:00 pm and fed dinner. We close at 6:00 pm and are back before bedtime for another potty break and a bed time treat. On weekends we are here multiple times a day for a couple hours each time so they aren't in their crates very much.

Question 4

I have different sized dogs that are boarding. Do big dogs cost more?

Accepted Answer

No, it is the full price per night per dog for boarding no matter what the size of the dog is.

Question 5

Why does my dog seem sluggish and/or grumpy after daycare or boarding?

Accepted Answer

If your dog is not used to a lot of activity or exercise, he or she may be tired and have sore joints and muscles, just like a person who overdoes a workout after a long period of inactivity. Exercise is one of the benefits of doggie daycare, so you will notice the soreness is only temporary.
