Vaccination Requirements

Pets must be up to date on required vaccinations before they can tour or stay at our facility. For the protection of our visitors, staff and guests, vaccines must be current or administered two weeks prior to your pet’s stay. We require valid proof of vaccinations before your pet can come for a grooming appointment or stay at VCA DeLand Pet Resort. Remember, if you don't have a regular Veterinarian, VCA DeLand Animal Hospital or VCA Newman Deltona can vaccinate your pets, too. 

Did you know that pets can share a cold just like kids at school? But Vaccines, like Bordetella, protect dogs against one cold in particular; Canine Cough.

Some diseases are even Zoonotic, which means you can get them from your pets. Did you know that Rabies and Leptospirosis are both Zoonotic diseases? Well you can protect your family, two and four legged alike, just by vaccinating!

Vaccines go to work immediately, but the body can take weeks to build up enough anti-bodies to protect against any real exposure to illness. To maximize your pet’s protection it’s a good idea not to socialize them with other pets or expose them to high traffic facilities (such as the pet store, dog park, groomers, etc.) until after this 2-week incubation period.

We require the following vaccination protection for guests that wish to lodge with us:

       • For Canines: Distemper & Parvo, Bordetella, Rabies and Fecal Test
       • For Felines: FVRCP and Rabies

For guests visiting our grooming department, the above mentioned vaccines are required.

There are absolutely no breed restrictions for lodging. However, wolf-hybrids or other species mixed with dog or cat are not permitted.
