Pet Boarding in West Fork, AR

Many pet owners struggle to find a boarding facility they can trust to watch their pets while they’re out of town. At Smithers Animal Hospital, we offer limited boarding for pet parents who prefer to have veterinary supervision during their pet’s stay.

Canine Boarding

Each pet is kenneled in a size-appropriate run or kennel, and housemates can stay together upon request. Each pet is fed according to their normal routine (free fed, once or twice daily). We take several trips outside to our enclosed yard each day for potty time and enrichment.

Please bring any of your pet’s routine medications, food and instructions with you; they will be given as instructed.

Feline Boarding

Each cat is housed in a kitty condo, and housemates can stay together upon request. Each condo is complete with a perch and a hidey hole for those who prefer a bit more privacy.

Please bring any of your pet’s routine medications, food and instructions with you; they will be given as instructed.

What We Provide

We provide bedding, enrichment toys and EN (gastrointestinal) blend food. While not required, you’re welcome to bring food, a blanket or bed and toys from home to make the stay a bit more comfortable.*

*Items may become damaged or lost during your pet’s boarding stay.

Boarding Requirements

Core vaccinations are required to be up to date prior to boarding, or they will be administered at the time of drop-off. If your pet is not healthy enough for vaccines and has been medically cleared, no vaccinations are required. We do not board kittens or puppies without full vaccinations unless prior arrangements have been made and approved by a veterinarian.

  • Canine: DA2LPP, rabies and Bordetella vaccines
  • Feline: FVRCP, FeLV and rabies vaccines

Heartworm, flea and tick prevention is not required but is heavily suggested.

If our boarding is full, please contact Canine Corner to book.
