Dog and Cat Boarding in North Richland Hills

The boarding facility at Cornerstone Animal Hospital is closely supervised by our veterinary team. If your pet has any medical condition that requires care or encounters an emergency, our team is ready to respond quickly and effectively.

We’re committed to providing exceptional care for your pet during their stay. With a focus on comfort and safety, you can leave your pet with confidence and peace of mind. We offer Science Diet food for our guests, but pet parents are welcome to bring their pet’s own food and treats to avoid dietary issues.

Playtime and Daycare!

Your pet will have access to water, food or treats as per your instructions, soft bedding, and time outside in the backyard at least three times a day. Some playtime and lots of love are always part of the stay. If your pet needs extra attention or playtime, let us know during check-in. Baths and grooming can also be scheduled while boarding. If your pet has pre-existing medical needs, our experienced team is prepared to provide necessary care—just let us know in advance. Be sure to check our promotions page for discounts and special offers.

Cat Friendly Boarding

We are proud to offer a cat-friendly environment. Cats are housed in a completely separate area from dogs to ensure a stress-free and comfortable experience. Our facility accommodates feline guests for day stays or extended overnights.

Long-term Boarding

We offer long-term boarding depending on availability. To ensure the best experience for your pet, we require pre-payment of at least 50% of the estimated stay duration, a valid ID, and a credit/debit card on file.

Day Care

Need day care for a few hours or the entire day? We’re here to help. Your pet will enjoy a cozy space, personal attention, and playtime while in our care.

Unclaimed Pets

If a pet is not picked up as scheduled and we are unable to contact the pet parent, the pet may be considered abandoned. In such cases, Cornerstone Animal Hospital will follow applicable laws regarding abandoned pets. All associated boarding and service fees, including any legal costs, will remain the responsibility of the pet owner or their representative.
