Feeding, Medication & Routine Instructions Form

A boarding routine template — feeding, medication and daily routine set out per pet, so a stay keeps your pet’s normal rhythm.

Description

The secret to a settled boarder is keeping its days as normal as possible, and that starts with precise instructions. This form captures exactly how your pet is fed, medicated and looked after day to day, so staff follow your routine rather than a best guess. It gets into the detail that matters in a kennel: what and how much to feed and when, each medication with its dose and timing, exercise and company needs, and the comforts that help your pet settle in a strange place. For a pet on medication or a prescription diet, this form is the difference between a smooth stay and a worried one. Fill it in before every stay or keep it on file for a regular boarder. Free, brandable, and it means your pet’s routine travels with it.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Feeding, Medication & Routine Instructions Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What should boarding instructions include?

Feeding amounts and times, each medication with dose and timing, exercise and company needs, and the comforts that help your pet settle — everything staff need to keep your pet’s routine normal.

Why be precise about feeding and medication?

Because a change in diet or a missed dose can make a boarding pet unwell or anxious. Exact instructions mean your pet eats and is medicated exactly as it is at home.

Can I supply my pet's own food?

Usually yes, and it’s often recommended to avoid tummy upsets from a sudden change. Note it on the form and the kennel will store and serve it as instructed.

How is medication managed during a stay?

Staff follow the doses and timings you record here, and will confirm anything complex with you before drop-off. Clear instructions mean nothing is missed or guessed.

What if my pet needs extra company or quiet?

Note it — some pets want lots of fuss, others prefer calm. The form captures this so staff can give your pet the kind of attention that suits it.

Is the instructions form free?

Yes — free with a Fun Forms account, fully customisable, and ready to complete before each stay.
