PCSA – Pet Care Services Association (formerly ABKA)We fully support the PCSA - Pet Care Services Association (formerly ABKA or the American
Boarding Kennel Association), which requires participating boarding kennels to demonstrate their adherence to a comprehensive
set of operational standards. These standards include over 200 detailed requirements for boarding kennels and were developed
over many years by the PCSA, the international trade association for the owners and operators of commercial boarding kennels.
The standards reflect the views of kennel operators, veterinarians, pet owners, and humane organizations and thus represent
the "state of the art" in animal care and management. Boarding kennels accredited by the PCSA must submit
detailed information about their animal care procedures and business policies and submit to an on-site inspection. This program
offers pet owners the assurance that Accredited facilities have earned the PCSA "stamp of approval" by successfully
completing this comprehensive program.
