Safety policy

Required immunizations.

Every pet in our facility is up to date on core vaccines. It's how we keep the whole group safe.

Dogs

Required for all services

  • Rabies. Current per state law.
  • DHPP (distemper combo). Current.
  • Bordetella. Current, with most recent dose administered at least 7 days before your first stay or visit.

Recommended (not required)

  • Canine influenza (CIV). Recommended if your dog travels.
  • Leptospirosis. Recommended for outdoor and rural dogs.

Cats

Required for cat boarding

  • Rabies. Current per state law.
  • FVRCP. Current.
  • Outdoor cats need to be flea-free at drop-off.

How to submit records

Have your vet email vaccination records to support@ruffininn.com or fax them in. Most vets can also send them directly through their online portal — just give them our email address.

If you're switching from another boarding facility, we can usually pull records from them with your written permission. Call us if that's easier.
