Plympton Vet Clinic Boarding Form
This is the Boarding Admission Form that is needed for every pet that is booked for boarding at our clinic. This form is filled in after you have made the initial booking for our Clinic and paid the 2 day deposit.
EVERY pet needs a separate Boarding Admission Form completed. This form should come back to us within 7 days of the boarding.

Why is an older pet clearance form needed?
For the safety and wellbeing of senior pets, we require an Older Pet Clearance Form for any pet over the age of 8 who is not a client of Plympton Vet Clinic.
Boarding can be more physically and emotionally demanding for older animals, as they may struggle with changes to routine, unfamiliar environments, or increased activity around other pets. Senior pets are also more prone to health issues, and the stress of boarding can sometimes worsen existing conditions. This form, completed by your veterinarian, confirms your pet is fit to board and provides us with essential medical information. This is a common requirement across many boarding facilities, and helps ensure we can provide safe, informed care during your pet’s stay.
What if my own vet will not give me this clearance form?
If your vet is unable to fill in this form or provide any other written clearance, you can make an appointment with one of our vet team prior to the boarding dates. Consultation fees will apply. Please contact our Team as soon as possible to make an appointment. We recommend you do this in advance of your pet's boarding dates and not on the day of boarding in the eventuality that your pet is deemed too unwell to board with us.
