Deposits & Cancellations

At Tucked Inn Kennels, we're all about offering a top-notch, exclusive experience for you and your furry friends. As a cozy and intimate boarding facility with limited space, we prioritize advanced reservations to ensure we can provide the best possible care for each of our guests. We do not offer walk-in services and all of our offerings are part of a complete package designed to make your pup's stay as enjoyable as possible.

For the comfort and security of all our guests, Tucked Inn Kennels is not open to the general public without a prior reservation. To ensure we can continue providing the best possible services and facilities, we have established the following policies regarding cancellations and changes to reservations.

At Tucked Inn Kennels, we require a non-refundable deposit to secure your reservation for either daycare or overnight stays. For overnight stays, the deposit will be 50% of the total cost*, while daycare visits must be paid in full in advance. Deposits must be received within 24 hours of booking approval and deposit request, otherwise the booking will be automatically cancelled. Once we receive your deposit, we'll send a confirmation email to the provided address within 24 hours, officially confirming your reservation.

We understand that plans can change, but please note that we don't offer refunds for cancellations. For multi-visit daycare packages, you'll have 90 days from the purchase date to use the credits. Any no-shows or cancellations received with less than 24 hours notice will result in losing one daycare credit. Frequent cancellations or no-shows may result in your dog being removed from our daycare program, and no refunds will be given for unused credits. For single visit daycare bookings, cancellations received more than 24 hours in advance will be credited to your account for future use within three months. However, cancellations received less than 24 hours before the visit, or no-shows, won't be refunded or credited.

If you need to cancel an overnight boarding reservation, please note that cancellations received less than 21 days before the arrival date will result in the forfeiture of the entire deposit. Further details are listed below.

Our grooming services are also reserved in advance with our exclusive partners, and cancellations or changes to grooming appointments made less than 24 hours prior to the start time will incur the full charge for the treatment.

Can any exceptions be made?

At Tucked Inn Kennels, we take each reservation seriously and carefully plan our staffing and resources based on the number of expected guests. This means that when you book a stay with us, we are dedicating resources specifically for your furry companion's comfort and well-being.

We understand that unexpected circumstances may arise and plans may change, but it's important to note that cancellations can impact our daily operations and the reservations of other guests. With that in mind, we have established the following policies to ensure the smooth running of our facilities and provide a positive experience for all of our guests:
