Cat Boarding & Doggy Day Care
A calm, caring place for your cat or small dog while you’re away.
Leaving your furry friend can be stressful — for both of you. That’s why our boarding facilities are designed to feel secure, clean, and calm, with daily attention from experienced vet nurses who truly know cats and dogs. Whether it’s just for a weekend or a longer stay, you can relax knowing they’re safe and well looked after.
Why Choose Mosman Vet for Boarding?
Unlike more generalised pet boarding facilities, our accommodation is located within the veterinary hospital, with quiet, climate-controlled housing and a team that monitors your pet’s health and comfort every day. If anything goes wrong while you’re away, they’re already in the right place.
This is especially valuable for older cats, pets with medical needs, or anxious animals who don’t cope well with noise and disruption.
Services We Offer
We provide a full range of in-house diagnostics, allowing us to move quickly from assessment to action — often during a single visit.
Individual housing for cats in a calm, separate space away from dogs
Daily cleaning, litter changes and fresh food and water
Vet nurse monitoring and health checks
Administering of regular medication if needed
Comfortable bedding and temperature control
Updates if concerns arise during their stay
What to Bring
We provide all the essentials — but if your pet is particularly fussy, we recommend bringing familiar items from home.
Their own food (especially if they’re on a special diet)
A favourite blanket or toy for comfort
Written medication instructions if applicable
Their vaccination certificate (current F3 required)
Booking Requirements
We require all boarding cats to be fully vaccinated with an F3 vaccine. If your cat is due for a booster, we can arrange this prior to their stay. Space is limited, especially during holiday periods, so early booking is recommended.
