1. Animal Connection SF LLC hereinafter referred to as the “Animal Connection” agrees to exercise due and reasonable care to keep its premises sanitary, property enclosed, and pets well cared for.

2. The Animal Connection does not assume and shall not be held responsible for any liability with respect to the pets listed in this agreement, of any kind, character, or nature whatsoever, arising out of or from the boarding of this pet, or any damages which may occur from any other cause whatsoever, including loss by fire, theft, running away, illness, death, or injury to any other animal caused by the within named pet during the term of this contract, whether this pet is solely responsible for any and all acts of behavior of said pet at any time within the term and time of the contract. In no case shall the Animal Connection be in any way liable or responsible.

3. The owner of the named pet specifically represents that he/she is the sole owner of said animal and that the pet has not been exposed to any communicable disease within the last thirty days. The Animal Connection has the right to refuse any animals deemed “unhealthy”. 

4. If the pet becomes ill, the owner or contact person shall be notified at once. If the owner does not immediately inform the Animal Connection regarding measures to be taken or if the state of the pet’s health requires quick action, the right to call a veterinarian or to administer medicine or give advisable attention within the discretion shall be taken for granted by Animal Connection, and such expenses shall be promptly paid by owner.

5. No person is authorized by the Animal Connection to change or waive any of the terms or conditions of this contract and Animal Connection will not be bound by any changes therein whether oral or written. All terms and conditions of this agreement shall be binding on the heirs, administrators and assigns of the owner of the within named pet.

6. The Animal Connection is not responsible nor will be held liable for any veterinary expenses incurred on pet during or after the term of this contract.

7. Two pets in an enclosure: At the discretion of the Animal Connection, two pets boarded in the same enclosure may be separated into similar accommodations and the owner will be charged the appropriate rate. This could happen, for example, if the two pets are not getting along, are destroying bedding, or if entry to the enclosure is difficult with two pets in the same enclosure.

8. Older pets: When older pets are boarded they are subject to a great deal of stress because of removal from their normal home environment. This stress can cause latent (dormant) physical conditions (such as heart, liver and kidney disorders) to become active. This can result in illness or death of said pet.

9. Estimate of charges: Upon request, an estimate of charges can be provided. Events that can affect this estimate are: Pickup day(s) early/late, de-matting charges for grooming, vet expense, medicine expense, flea treatment, and other items which are usually discussed over the phone with either yourself or your emergency contact person. We attempt to provide an accurate estimate of total costs, but it is only an estimate.
