Boarding your animals at your vet ’ s office is a great idea , even if you don ’ t do anything but board them . The best reason is if any medical emergencies come up while you are gone , your animals are in the best place possible for a good outcome because they are with a doctor familiar with them and their medical histories . Veterinarians ’ offices are under the review of the Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners and are subject to rules and regulations to ensure pet safety and good practices are being maintained . These are just a few suggestions of procedures you could have completed on your pets while you are away . You will want to work closely with your doctor for the best options for your animals .
Vaccinations — If your pets aren ’ t up to date with vaccinations , boarding is a great time to get those shots . The staff can also monitor your pet to make sure there aren ’ t any side effects or concerns . Vaccinations can be for rabies , puppy shot series for parvo , or even for heartworms or fleas and ticks . Talk to your vet to see what can be accomplished while you ’ re traveling .
Microchipping — Having your pets microchipped is a great idea in case they ever become lost or get out of your home or their enclosure . Many vets and animal shelters can read the chips and make sure your animals get returned to you .

Dental — There are a host of dental procedures from cleaning to extractions that can keep your pets healthy in the long term . Because many of them include anesthesia , boarding is a great time to get these procedures done and have them monitored by trained staff after the fact .
Spay and neutering — This is a must for all animals , unless your pet will be used for breeding . Many procedures require overnight stays , so when you are boarding them anyway , have this important surgery completed .
Grooming — Many vet offices offer
