When you bring your pet to our hospital—whether for boarding, recovery, or extra care—there is a dedicated team working behind the scenes to make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Today, we want to shine a spotlight on a group that often goes unnoticed but is absolutely essential to everything we do: Our kennel staff.

More Than a Full-Service Kennel

Our hospital offers a full-service kennel, and the care your pets receive goes far beyond feeding and walking. Our kennel staff ensures that every animal is:

• Fed on schedule and given fresh water
• Walked, exercised, and comforted
• Kept clean, comfortable, and monitored closely
• Provided a calm, caring environment while away from home

They are often the first to notice subtle changes in appetite, behavior, or comfort—and they communicate those observations to our medical team to ensure your pet gets the attention they need.

The Backbone of Daily Operations

In addition to caring for your pets, our kennel team helps keep our entire hospital running smoothly. They:

• Keep our clinic clean and sanitized
• Manage laundry and bedding
• Wash windows and maintain common areas
• Pick up trash and maintain outdoor spaces
• And much more

Their work creates a safe, welcoming environment for patients, clients, and staff alike.

Showing Up—No Matter What

Our kennel staff works through holidays, weekends, severe weather, and even hurricanes to ensure that boarded and hospitalized pets are never alone or neglected. While many of us are home with our families, they are here—showing up with compassion, responsibility, and dedication.

Their commitment doesn’t pause when conditions are difficult. Your pets’ care always comes first.

A Message From Their Coworkers

To our kennel staff:
We are incredibly thankful for you. Your hard work, reliability, and genuine love for animals do not go unnoticed by your coworkers. You are a vital part of our hospital family, and we truly could not do this without you. Thank you for everything you do—day in and day out—to care for our patients and support our team.

Thank You to Our Clients

We also want to thank our clients for trusting us with your pets. Boarding an animal is an act of trust, and we are honored that you choose our hospital and our kennel team to care for them when you are away. Your support allows us to continue providing the high level of care your pets deserve.

With Gratitude

Our kennel staff may work behind the scenes, but their impact is felt in every wagging tail, every clean kennel, and every pet that goes home happy and healthy. We are proud to have such a dedicated team caring for your beloved companions.

From all of us—thank you for trusting us, and thank you to our kennel staff for being the heart that keeps our hospital running. 🐾
