Pet boarding service in Kenya
Pet boarding with secure housing and recorded daily care
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional boarding pilot: a qualified, appropriately authorised operator accepts one pre-assessed adult dog from one household for two nights, after a trial introduction and professional premises review. Scope includes agreed feeding, rest, exercise, observations and owner updates. This is not a spare-room shortcut: secure housing, competent continuous staffing arrangements, infection controls and emergency veterinary access must exist before accepting the animal. Exclude sedation, medical treatment and mixing unfamiliar boarders without assessment.
