Planning tools
Seven free tools use the real 2026 rate sheet, holiday windows and vaccine rules to help you plan a stay in a few minutes. Numbers are estimates, and the kennel confirms every reservation.
Planning tools
Boarding involves a handful of small decisions: which kennel size, whether a holiday deposit applies, whether your pet's shots will last, and what to pack. Each tool answers one of them and nothing more.
What each tool does
The stay cost estimator turns your dates, pets and kennel class into an estimate. The holiday deposit checker tells you whether your drop-off falls near a major holiday. The vaccine readiness checker lists what to sort out before drop-off. The packing list prints on one page.
The kennel class finder matches a dog's size to Economy, Business or First Class. The bath price finder reads the 2024 bath chart. The first-stay planner builds a countdown from your drop-off date.
How accurate they are
The tools apply the 2026 rate sheet as printed. They cannot see the reservation calendar, and they cannot know about discounts that depend on a conversation, so every result ends with a prompt to call 707-678-6600 or send a booking request.
Which tool first?
If you are new, start with the first-stay planner. If you already have dates, the cost estimator and the deposit checker take about a minute each.
