The health, safety, and wellbeing of all pets in our care is of paramount importance. As a condition of using our services, all vaccinations and preventative healthcare treatments listed on our Registration Form must be kept fully up to date.

This includes, where applicable, the Kennel Cough vaccination, regular flea treatments, and routine worming treatments. Clients may be asked to provide evidence that these requirements have been met prior to the commencement of services.

As Kennel Cough is highly contagious, we are unable to accept any dog displaying symptoms of the condition or any dog whose required vaccinations are not current.

Unfortunately, we are unable to accept pets with a history of serious aggression, persistent escape behaviour, severe resource guarding, or any other behavioural issues that may compromise safety.

Should a Pet Sitter identify any undisclosed behavioural concerns that place people, animals, or property at risk, Pet Sanctuary reserves the right to suspend or terminate services with immediate effect.
