Pet Boarding and Daycare
Austin Pet Boarding
Leaving your pet while you're away can make you and your pet unnecessarily anxious. At Hill Country Animal Hospital, we offer a convenient solution by providing boarding for cats or dogs. Comfortably housed at the hospital, each pet is given plenty of individual attention to help pass the days quickly until your return. If your dog is boarding, they will have the opportunity to play with our daycare groups, making their time here even more enjoyable.
Boarding reservations should be made prior to drop-off to ensure a spot for your pet. At check-in a staff member will ask for an emergency contact person, your pet's feeding instructions, health concerns, medication instructions, grooming options and any other special requirements you or your pet may have. This ensures the proper care of your pet during his/her visit.
Reservations
