Kennel & Boarding Teams
You Keep Them Safe. We Help You Save.
Kennel attendants and boarding facility staff are trusted with families' pets every single day. You manage feeding schedules, medication administration, exercise routines, and overnight care — often for dozens of animals at once. That level of responsibility deserves real support.
Tails Co-Op was built for the people who do the hands-on work in animal care. As a member, you get access to cooperative pricing on diagnostics, preventive care products, and professional resources — all at rates that actually make sense for your income.
What Kennel & Boarding Team Members Get
Smarty Tests Access — Order diagnostics like fecal panels, heartworm tests, and wellness bloodwork through our cooperative at member pricing. Ideal for facilities that handle intake health checks or monitor animals during extended stays.
Preventive Care Savings — Access cooperative pricing on flea/tick prevention, dewormers, and other routine care products your facility uses every day.
Circle Community — Connect with other boarding professionals, share facility management tips, discuss handling techniques, and learn from the network.
Professional Development — Resources on animal first aid, behavior recognition, safe handling, and facility best practices to help you provide even better care.
Why This Matters for Boarding Facilities
Most boarding facilities operate on tight margins. Between facility maintenance, staffing, insurance, and supplies, there's not much room for markup on care products. Tails Co-Op's cooperative model means you're buying alongside thousands of other animal care professionals — so everyone gets better pricing.
Whether you run a small home-based boarding operation or manage a large commercial kennel, membership gives your facility access to the same quality diagnostics and products used by veterinary clinics.
Who Can Join
Tails Co-Op membership is open to anyone working in a kennel, boarding, or pet daycare facility. This includes kennel attendants, facility managers, boarding operators, and daycare staff. No specific credential is required — just proof that you work in professional animal care.
