Vaccinations

To safeguard the health and well-being of all our guests, all dog campers must have current rabies, DHLPP and bordetella vaccinations. All cat campers must have current FVRCP and rabies. We need to see proof of these vaccinations before boarding. By North Carolina State law, Companion Camp cannot board pets that are not fully vaccinated. Further, all pets must be free of fleas, ticks, and worms before visiting.

Although Companion Camp maintains a sanitary facility, in a camp setting our campers do encounter nature's insects. For their protection, we require that our campers be treated with a comprehensive insect repellent such as Frontline Plus or Advantix.
