What Pet Boarding Hygiene Really Looks Like (And Why It Matters)
You wouldn’t stay at a hotel with dirty sheets—so why should your pet? Cleanliness isn’t just a preference in pet boarding—it’s essential for health, safety, and comfort.
At The Tiny Toots, hygiene is non-negotiable. Here’s an inside look at how we keep things sparkling clean and disease-free, without using harsh chemicals or compromising coziness.
🪣 Clean Isn’t Just “Looks Clean”—It’s Science
Animals are sensitive to bacteria and viruses that can hide in fur, food bowls, or play areas. Poor hygiene can lead to:
- GI issues and parasites
- Skin infections
- Respiratory irritation
- Cross-contamination between species
We clean for health, not just for looks.
🧴 Our Daily Hygiene Routine
Every day, we:
- Clean all food and water bowls with pet-safe detergent
- Replace bedding, hay, litter
- Wipe down surfaces
- Vacuum hair and debris using HEPA-filter cleaners
- Do spot-checks throughout the day
🐶 Dog-Free = Cleaner Air & Surfaces
Let’s face it: dogs bring in a lot of drool, dander, and noise. Because we’re strictly dog-free, there’s:
- Less fur floating around
- Fewer allergens
- No smell contamination
It makes for a calmer, cleaner, more controlled environment for cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs.
👃 What Our Space Smells Like (Hint: Not a Pet Store)
We avoid strong chemical smells and only use:
- Pet-safe fragrance-free or lightly herbal cleaners
- Air purifiers with HEPA filters
- Natural ventilation systems
No ammonia. No bleach. No artificial sprays.
🐾 Clean AND Comfortable
We balance hygiene with coziness:
- Soft washable bedding
- Cleanable toys rotated regularly
- Spotless but not sterile spaces
You wouldn’t sleep on plastic—you shouldn’t expect your pet to either.
📝 Summary
Clean pets are happy pets—and clean facilities are safe ones.
