Be the person your dog thinks you are.

Kennels are thoroughly cleaned between dogs using veterinary grade disinfectant. This targets canine specific viruses/ bacteria such as Distemper, Parvo Virus and Bordetella, just to name a few. Floors are mopped and kennel walls are sprayed and wiped every. single. time. This disinfectant is used for all areas. 

Our indoor common area is cleaned nightly with a mop once all the daycare dogs are gone for the day and boarding dogs are put up for the night (or they play outside while it dries). A fan is used to circulate the air and help everything dry faster. Staff are required to wait until the floor is dry before they leave to ensure no dogs have a negative reaction to the cleaning products. 

The indoor play area is cleaned after every use using a mop. This ensures the area is prepped and ready for the next group of dogs to safely play!

Couches are sprayed nightly with a vinegar, dawn and water mixture to help keep them sanitary. Towels, blankets or sheets are draped over each couch and are changed as needed. This helps keep the couches in better condition and allows us to extend their life here at Animal House. Once couches reach the end of their life, they are disposed of and replaced. 

The biggest concern for our outdoor area is feces. Dog poop is picked up as soon as it hits the ground and we do a sweep of the yard at the end of every night to pick up any that were missed.  During the summer, pools and obstacles are sprayed down at the end of each day and fresh water is used as needed for the pools. 

For all our indoor areas, urine, feces or any other bodily fluid are immediately cleaned up. Water bowls for all areas are changed daily and fresh water is offered around the clock. Veterinary grade disinfectant is used to clean all areas.
