All pets boarded at Ellie's Pet Hotel
must be free of any contagious ailments. For the protection of
all our guests we require proof of current vaccinations by a licensed
veterinarian.

Please
note: We have no way of knowing whether an incoming guest has
been exposed to an upper respiratory virus. An exposed animal
may take from 5 to 7 days to show any signs of illness. Pets can
contract these viruses on walks, in their own back yardsif a neighbor's
dog has it, or in the veterinarian's office-- anywhere they may
come in closecontact or airborne contact with other animals. Boarded
pets are susceptible to virus such as bordetella, pneumonitis,
etc. Even though all of our guests are vaccinated for these,
vaccines are only effective against some strains of upper respiratoryviruses
and not 100 percent effective against any. These illnesses are
usually limited to mild, cold-like symptoms. If you have concerns
about this, please discuss them with our staff.
