    Frequently asked questions

    Is my pet boarded in a kennel or a home in Fort Worth?

    Neither — VetterCare boarding means your pet stays in your veterinary professional's own home, not a kennel or cage/run. It's a comfortable, family environment with one-on-one attention, instead of being one of many dogs in a facility.

    How is this different from a traditional boarding kennel?

    Traditional kennels house multiple pets and are staffed by kennel attendants. VetterCare pairs your pet one-on-one with an experienced, background-checked veterinary professional in their own home, so there's individual attention and someone trained to notice health or stress issues early.

    Can my pet's medication and feeding schedule be kept the same while boarding?

    Yes — your veterinary professional follows your pet's normal routine and medication schedule exactly, so nothing changes just because you're away.

    Will I get updates while my pet is boarding?

    Yes. Your veterinary professional sends photo updates while you're away, so you know how your pet is settling in.

    What if my pet has anxiety or gets stressed easily?

    Because your veterinary professional is trained to recognize stress and behavioral signs, they can adjust — extra reassurance, a calmer pace, whatever your pet needs — in a way a general kennel attendant typically isn't trained to.

    Do you require proof of vaccination before boarding?

    For everyone's safety and comfort, we typically ask for proof of vaccination before boarding. That said, we understand pets come to us in all kinds of circumstances, and we're happy to talk through your pet's specific situation directly — reach out and we'll figure out the right path together.

    Which parts of Fort Worth do you serve?

    Our veterinary professionals live in North Fort Worth and East Fort Worth, with more nearby in White Settlement, Forest Hill, North Richland Hills, Azle, and Burleson. Not sure we cover your street? Call (214) 509-6200 or start a booking and we'll let you know.

    Is boarding in a veterinary professional's home available in Fort Worth?

    Yes. Availability depends on each veterinary professional's schedule, so start a booking to see who's open for your dates.
