PET BOARDING FACILITIES REQUIRE IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM  YOU!

Bringing along the necessary information about your pet  saves time and assures acceptance, especially if it's the facility's first time caring for your pet.  Here are some things you may need to have proof of in making preparations.
