LAS VEGAS, March 13, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- St. Francis Animal Hospital, which is located on Eastern Avenue in Las Vegas, Nevada, is raising awareness about its pet boarding services. However, Dr. Drake and his team want local residents to know that these services are limited to regular clients of the clinic. That's because the Las Vegas veterinarian strives to provide personal care and attention to all pets and their owners. "By only boarding pets with whom we are familiar, we can ensure that the pet receives optimal care--and that they get along well with others who may be boarding here," he added.
In addition to being a regular client, a pet must be in good health and be up to date with vaccinations to be boarded at St. Francis Animal Hospital. These latter two restrictions are common across virtually all pet boarding facilities to protect the health of cats, dogs and other pets. Even pets with minor illnesses must be turned down because they could inadvertently cause weaker animals to fall ill, and the consequences can be disastrous. "We don't want people to worry about a thing after leaving their pets in our care," said Dr. Drake. "When pets board with us, their owners enjoy exceptional peace of mind."
Dr. Drake, his licensed veterinarian technician Carolann and the rest of the team assist whenever a pet is boarded at the facility. Since the team is already familiar with a pet when it boards there, they know its temperament and other traits. This makes it much easier for the team to properly care for the pet, whether it's a cat or a dog. Pet owners appreciate the personalized level of care that they and their pets receive when boarding at the facility. "Pet owners frequently state how relieved they are to have a safe, friendly, familiar place to board their pets," said Dr. Drake. "It is a great alternative to choosing a boarding facility at random."
Because St. Francis Animal Hospital only boards pets that are regular clients, they don't accept strays or one-time boarders. Since it is a full-service animal hospital, the clinic also provides a wide array of veterinary services, including preventative pet care, pet dental care, vaccinations, surgery, geriatric care, weight control services and microchipping. The clinic doesn't advertise its boarding services widely specifically due to the fact that they are reserved for regular clients only. "To avoid confusion, we tend to keep our boarding services somewhat low-key," said the veterinarian. "However, we encourage existing clients to take advantage of them, as long as their pets are fully vaccinated and healthy."
St. Francis Animal Hospital is located on Eastern Avenue in Las Vegas and provides a complete lineup of veterinarian services. For more information, or to schedule an appointment, area residents can call the clinic at 702-384-6161.
