Our Philosophy

Illustration

At Under The Oaks, we think cats are just as important as the dogs.
Our cat house & suites ensure your cats needs are met, no matter their personality. From shy kitties, to outgoing social cats, we have accommodations to make them comfortable. Our cat house fills up fast and features two rooms with catio access. Every space is equipped with air conditioning and heating to ensure comfort year round. Rest easy knowing we have a backup generator incase of any power outages. All spaces also feature hardwired smoke detectors that are wired directly to our owners phones, and the fire department. They also have temperature sensors for remote monitoring to ensure rooms stay nice and cool.

Have questions? We have answers!

Clear explanations for our most commonly asked questions.

  • We require all cats to come with a breakaway clip collar that has ID containing at least the pets name and a contact number. If you don't have one, we will provide a rental collar for $2 per stay. We also require pets to be on flea prevention. If your pet is not on flea prevention, we will provide a natural flea spray for $2 per night.
    We highly recommend bringing your pets food, we have fridges and freezers to accommodate different diets. You can also bring non rawhide chews! Please leave bowls, bedding, scoops, and non clip collars at home. We provide these items for every stay.
    At the time of booking, we will also verify all vaccination records and any perceptions your pet may be on.

  • We require records from your vet showing FVRCP, FeLV and Rabies are current

  • We require a non-refundable $70 deposit per stay per pet, if you cancel your stay, your deposit will be forfeited. Other than that, you can cancel but we request at least three days notice so we can try to fill the suite. Emergencies happen and we completely understand this, but multiple last minute cancelations will result in a higher deposit or being unable to book. As a small business, we appreciate our customers respecting our time.

  • Our facility is surrounded by nature (we are Under The Oaks after all!) and flea preventative helps to keep fleas out of our facility. If your pet is not on a flea preventative, natural or traditional, we will add $2 per day for the application of an all natural flea spray called Wondercide.
    No matter what prevention method is used, it isn't guaranteed to keep your pet flea free, but it is the best way to try! All pets will be checked for fleas upon arrival, if we find any, a flea bath will be added at the customers expense to keep both their pet and all others as protected as we can.

  • We recommend enrichment because of how significantly it can benefit your pet! If we suggest something specific for your animal, it's because we've seen a behavior that intakes this activity will enhance not only their stay, but their overall wellbeing.
    If you want recommendations for at home activities, don't hesitate to reach out, it's one of Elsa's favorite things to do!

  • Rest assured, we'll figure something out. Most pups do well on our rotating selection of house feed. We charge $5 per night for this add on and generally recommend adding pumpkin or probiotics as well. If your pet is on a specialized diet, please reach out and we'll work with you to troubleshoot.

  • We unfortunately are not offering cat baths or grooms, but we are offering nail trims! You can learn more about this here

  • Yes! Please bring all medications your pet is currently on. We charge $3 per administration for medications (pills, drops, powders, etc) and $5 per administration for injections (insulin). We do require a letter from your vet stating why your pet is on certain medications in order to ensure it isn't for anything contagious. 

  • Of course! We want your pets feeding routine to mimic what they get at home as closely as possible. We have a fridge and freezer to accommodate anything from raw to canned food.

  • We have a $17 alternate drop off / pickup fee. Please contact us to arrange an alternate drop off or pickup time, we can accommodate most situations.

  • We charge in full at drop off for your stay. In the event of a date change when your pet is already in our care, we will still charge for those nights as we will be unable to fill the suite. If we are able to rebook your space, we are happy to refund those nights.
