Dog Boarding

Countryside has an array of kennel options for your dog while vacationing with us. We have double indoor-outdoor runs, single indoor-outdoor runs, and a variety of kennel sizes. Would you like additional walks in the country with your dog? Just request additional leash walks upon admit. Does your pet need medication administered? Our guest care staff is trained to give oral, topical, and diabetic medication. Call 607-844-9188 today for availability and more information on our dog boarding services.

Cat Boarding

Our kitty condos are in a separate quiet, cozy area of the facility. We provide a lot of natural light for our cats to enjoy watching birds and relaxing. Countryside has double and single kitty condos for your purrfect feline. Our guest care staff is trained to give medication to our kitty friends as well. Call 607-844-9188 today for availability and more information on our cat boarding services.

Birds and Exotics Boarding

We know pets come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Our guest care staff is trained to care for a variety of pets. We will care for your birds, rabbits, ferrets, small mammals and pocket pets. Most exotic animals prefer to be in their own cage, so we recommend you bring your cage from home. Call 607-844-9188 today for availability and more information on our exotic pet boarding services.

Vaccine Requirements

All pets must have current vaccinations given by a veterinarian to stay at our boarding facility. If you don’t have time to update vaccines at your regular vet before the boarding stay, our doctor can provide a physical exam and vaccines upon arrival. Dogs are required to have Rabies, DHPP (distemper), and Bordetella; cats are required to have Rabies and FVRCP (distemper). 

Grooming

Does your pet need a spa day? While vacationing with us, your pet could have a luxurious bubble bath, blow dry, and brush out. Can’t trim nails at home? Request a paw-dicure with our guest care professionals. Call 607-844-9188 today for more information on our basic grooming services.
