By

Pet Central Hotel | Kennels & Cattery located in Sambourne, Warwickshire

As summer ends and Autumn begins we are looking forward to Christmas and with it booking in your pet. What do you need to do before booking for Christmas at Pet Central Hotel.

We have provided below the essentials you will need for your pets stay over the Christmas period:

When to book?
As Christmas is a busy time for us, we recommend you book in advance as space does become limited. As you make plans to visit friends and family don’t forget to book your pet in.

We recommend three months prior to the Christmas period to be sure of your pets space, although we do sometimes have availability for any last minute bookings. Availability can be limited especially around the main Christmas and New Years days.

When you make the booking, if you would like a Christmas lunch then please ask a member of staff and they will put your pet on the list for Dinner.


Christmas Dinners
As part of our Christmas service our staff offer to cook your pet a Christmas Dinner. This can be ordered when you drop off or in advance when you make your pets booking.

The Christmas dinner is cooked freshly by our staff and they will also post photos for you.

Social Media
At the festive time our customers want to visit family and friends you can still stay in touch with your pet via our social media outlets. We will still post photos over the main Christmas and New Year period for you.

We will also be able to respond to any messages you sent to us and communicate if required. Don’t worry you will be talking to one of our helpful staff member and not an AI bot. Don’t worry if you are not on social media we can also be contacted by telephone to catch up on your pets stay at Pet Central Hotel.

Daily Routine
Although it is Christmas, we still carry on with our normal daily routine of playtime and daily walks. If you are bringing any Christmas presents, please leave them a member of staff when you drop off. The only difference will be with our opening times changing around the main festive days.


Opening Times over the Festive Period
Although we stay open to our boarders we do close to customers to drop off and check in. We have listed them below for your convenience:

Opening times over Christmas:

Thursday the 24th of December 8:30 until 10am

Sunday the 27th of December Normal Hours

Charges over Christmas and New Year
Over the festive period our costs remain the same for daily boarding, we only do a double charge for the main three days once.

Vaccinations for the Festive Period
With the festive period vets do get busy and it is important to check your pet is fully vaccinated at least six weeks prior to boarding.

As a rule we ask for all our boarders to be vaccinated at least two weeks prior to boarding with us. If you are not sure please call us to discuss.

Medication
At Christmas vets will also have reduced working hours and it is important to order any medication in advance as it can take longer. As for us we will still administer all medication in line with your vets requirements.

Feeding
Although we can provide all food, there may be times when your pet is on a special diet and you will be providing it. At Christmas deliveries can be delayed and allow sufficient time for any food your pet may need.

Most of all please enjoy the festive period knowing your pet will be safe with us at Pet Central hotel. Happy Christmas to all of our customers and Pets.

Top 10 Tips for Kennelling your Dog

By

kennels Redditch Alcester BromsgroveWe’ve been offering dog kennelling facilities in the Redditch and surrounding Worcestershire area for over 10 years now.

During that time, we’ve picked up quite a lot of information about the best ways to prepare for dog kennelling, so here’s a few points to consider when you’re next looking for a kennels for your dog.

1. Do your research.
Make a shortlist of the kennels you’d like your dog to go to. This can be based on recommendations through word of mouth from other dog owners you know, or from your own online findings.  If you can, always visit the kennels prior to leaving your dog.  Here at Petcentralhotel, we’re more than happy to show people around to see the kind of facilities we have available.

2. What’s Important for your Dog?
Important considerations when you leave your pet anywhere are how they’re going to be treated. How often are they exercised? Can the kennels take care of any special requirements such as medication or dietary needs? How many staff are on hand to look after your dog, and how often are the kennels cleaned.

3.  Book Early!
All things considered, all kennels will be busy during traditional holiday periods.  Don’t leave it too late to book your dog into your favourite kennels.

4.  Vaccinations
It’s always worth ensuring your dogs vaccinations are up to date.  Mixing with other dogs as they will it always pays to be careful.  Consider talking to your vet about your dog having the kennel cough vaccine too for complete peace of mind.

5. First Night Nerves
If your dog has never been to a kennels before, consider a trial run beforehand to make sure he’s comfortable there.  We are more than happy to offer a day visit to make sure both you and your dog are happy with the arrangements for a longer term.

6. Worm and De-Flea!
Before you leave your dog with any boarding kennels make sure you worm him and give him a flea treatment.  This will reduce any opportunities for small irritations whilst he’s on his holiday whilst you’re away enjoying yours.

7.  Bedding
Most dog kennels will have bedding available, but it’s always worth checking.  In addition to any bedding supplied, it’s always a great idea to bring along a blanket or sheet with a familiar scent on it. This helps to reassure him and offer some comfort.

8.  Nice and Early
To help your dog settle into the kennels we always suggest to drop him off as early as possible. This gives your dog an opportunity to acclimatise himself to his new surroundings.  Leave quietly and quickly with as little fuss as you can, in order that you don’t transfer your nerves or excitement to him.

9.  Collection
When it’s time to collect him, try not to allow your dog to get too excited.  Of course, he’ll be over-excited to see you, but if you can remain calm, it helps us with the other boarders.

10.  Re-adjustment
After a stay in the kennels, it sometimes takes a dog a couple of days to re-adjust to being home and back around you.  Simply easing him into his normal routine will help, but be aware that unexplained behaviour does occasionally happen. It is nothing to worry about.

At Petcentralhotel, we pride ourselves on the customer service we offer to the boarders who come to stay with us – some of them time and time again.
