Pet Boarding

Pet Boarding Has Moved to Our Sister Location

Academy Pet Hospital is pleased to continue offering our clients a trusted option for pet boarding through our sister practice, Cross Creek Animal Hospital. Our boarding services have transitioned to Cross Creek, where dogs and cats can receive attentive care and comfortable accommodations while their families are away.

Academy Pet Hospital remains here for your pet’s veterinary care. 

Moving boarding to our sister location allows our team to focus on your pet’s medical needs while keeping convenient boarding available within our extended veterinary family.

New Location, Same Loving Care

If your pet previously boarded with us at Academy Pet Hospital, future stays will now take place at our sister practice, Cross Creek Animal Hospital. Located less than 10 minutes away, Cross Creek’s boarding facility was recently renovated with comfort in mind, creating a cozy, thoughtfully designed environment where pets can relax while you are away.

Check out where your pet will be staying: Take a virtual tour of Cross Creek’s boarding facility. 

You can also contact the Cross Creek  team to schedule an in-person tour of the boarding facility.   

We know your pet will receive plenty of love and attention, and will be in excellent hands.

What to Expect at Cross Creek

As Academy Pet Hospital’s sister practice, Cross Creek shares our commitment to attentive, compassionate care. You can feel confident knowing your pet will receive the same level of care and attention you have come to expect from our veterinary family. Veterinary support is also nearby if a medical concern arises during your pet’s stay.

Cross Creek offers individual housing, fresh water and clean bedding, along with daily exercise, activity and individual attention from the boarding team.

Daycare is included with boarding when appropriate and may include outdoor time, supervised group play, one-on-one attention, enrichment and time to rest and recharge. Group play is based on what is safest and most appropriate for each pet.

Our goal is to make the transition as seamless as possible for you and your pet.

For Academy boarding clients:

  • New temperament tests are not required

  • Your pet can continue receiving veterinary care at Academy Pet Hospital

Lacey, my cat, was very nervous about being at the vet and so was I because I wasn’t sure how she was going to act but Alex was so nice and welcoming. She made Lacey feel safe while she was here to get her check up !

I recently started bring my Penelope (my 6 yr old chihuahua mix) to Academy pet hospital. She has received dental care and vaccines. I’m very happy with the service. Everyone is friendly and helpful and services she may benefit from but are never pushy. Pricing is reasonable. I’m glad we made we decided to give them a try.
