Pet Boarding for a Fun and Safe Home Away from Home

Leaving your pet behind can be difficult, but choosing pet boarding connected to a veterinary hospital provides an added level of comfort, trust, and peace of mind. At Animal Medical Center of Cumming, we combine a safe, comfortable boarding environment with attentive care from a team that understands your pet’s health and individual needs.

Throughout your pet’s stay, our trained staff will monitor their appetite, behavior, comfort, and overall well-being. We can administer routine medications, if needed, and recognize subtle changes that may indicate a developing health concern. If an illness or emergency arises, our onsite veterinary team is available to assess the situation and provide prompt medical attention.

Whether your pet is staying for a single night or an extended visit, you can travel with confidence knowing they are receiving thoughtful care in a facility equipped to support both their comfort and health.

Pet Boarding FAQs

We want you to feel fully prepared and confident about your pet’s stay. Explore our frequently asked questions below to learn more about our boarding services, accommodations, requirements, and more.

  • Boarding Accommodations

    With our overnight boarding for cats and dogs, our Cumming veterinary team will treat your pet like our family and provide a home away from home while you are away.

    We provide complete general boarding services for all of our patients, and medical cat and dog boarding services with conditions standard boarding centers may not be equipped to accommodate.

  • Dog Boarding

    Each morning, the dogs venture outside to our outdoor run for fresh air before breakfast. While they are outside, their kennels are cleaned, disinfected, and stocked with fresh linens.

    Depending on their physical capacity and ability, we walk the dogs who stay with us on a regular schedule.

    Your dog will also be supervised throughout their stay with us, both during walks and while resting.

    Dinner is served in the evening, followed by one last walk before bedtime.

    TLC Playtime We offer a Group Play Package and One-on-One Time to ensure dogs are able to interact with our trained team members and other dogs depending on their needs, characteristics and abilities.

    Group Play During action-packed sessions, dogs can hone their social skills and interact with our trained team members, as well as other dogs. This type of play offers a much-needed outlet for high-energy dogs. Because we understand that not all dogs play the same, dogs will be placed in groups appropriate for their size, breed, age and demeanor.

    One-on-One Time If your dog doesn't socialize well with other dogs, they may enjoy some one-on-one time with our trained staff while gaining the benefits mentioned above. While activities will vary, rest assured that your dog will be under constant supervision by our trained team.

  • Cat Boarding

    Your cat will be fed according to your specifications and their requirements, to ensure their routine is the same as it is at home.

    Throughout the day, litter boxes are checked, cleaned, and disinfected.

    Additionally, we refresh linens and clean your kitty's room daily. Our cat boarding area is separated from the dog area to ensure your kitty feels relaxed and safe while they stay with us.

    We offer a One-on-One Time to ensure cats are able to interact with our trained team members to get some snuggles, play and pets into their time with us.
