Lodging
Mineral Wells Veterinary Clinic offers boarding as a convenience for our clients.
The boarding facilities here at Mineral Wells Veterinary Clinic offer both excellent pet care and comfort. All rooms are climate controlled. The cat lodgings are separated from the dog kennel to minimize anxiety for the kitties. Your pet and his/her fellow lodgers must be current on their vaccinations and fecal exams to prevent and protect against exposure to infectious diseases. Runs and cages are cleaned daily, and cats are provided with fresh litter and litter pans daily. Boarding pets are given a bath only at the owner's request, and are charged for this service.
Lodging (boarding) drop-offs and pickups are done during regular office hours only!
CHECK-IN & CHECK-OUT times are like those of a hotel - you pay for the first night, and all additional nights. Check-in time is 5:00 pm Monday through Friday. Check-out time is 9:30 am Monday through Friday. If your pet is picked up after 9:30 am, you will be charged a boarding fee for that day.
REQUIRED VACCINES AND PROCEDURES (note: these vaccines must either be given here, or written proof of vaccination by a veterinarian must be provided at the time your pet is checked in. Home vaccinations are NOT accepted. If not done before check-in, the required vaccines/tests will be done here, and you will be billed for them.)
