The focus of our Emergency Boarding Program is to provide assistance to pet parents who are hospitalized or recovering from a medical procedure. We can no longer offer assistance for homeless/housing issues due to the shortage of affordable housing in our area. If approved for emergency boarding, please note that we can only board dogs for 4 weeks maximum. If you cannot reclaim your animal during these time frames, please do not apply
