Heading into the busier season...

A reiteration

​

1. Staff will be wearing masks at all times.
2. Guests are required to wear masks while in the facility. (Please bring your own, we have a limited supply)
3. Doors will be open and fans will be circulating and exhausting air. Please plan to secure your pet as if you were outside.
4. If possible please try to limit 1 person per 1 pet. If it's slow this does not apply, We know sometimes it's best to have help. We have occupancy limits we must meet in order to remain open. There's no limit how many dogs each person brings.
5. Due to occupancy limits and disinfecting time you may need to wait outside the facility for your turn. Though I don’t anticipate this being an issue.

6.  Please use hand sanitizer before and after using the BathHouse or touching items in the market.
7. We no longer have NAIL TRIMS. 

8. NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY

These guidelines are in place until further notice for all of us to stay healthy while sharing space in the BathHouse.

 

UPDATE May 13

WE WILL RE-OPEN FRIDAY MAY 15th. The case numbers in the state appear to be on the decline and I believe a big reason for that is due to measures that individuals are taking. Hand washing, surface disinfecting, and masks are crucial to stopping the spread. We need to be able to open and remain open, so...
RE-OPEN GUIDELINES:
1. Staff will be wearing masks at all times.
2. Guests are requested to wear masks while in the facility. (Please bring your own, we do not have any PPE to distribute)
3. Doors will be open and fans will be circulating and exhausting air. Please plan to secure your pet as if you were outside.
4. If possible please try to limit 1 person per 1 pet. If it's slow this does not apply, We know sometimes it's best to have help. We have occupancy limits we must meet in order to remain open. There's no limit how many dogs each person brings.
5. Due to occupancy limits and disinfecting time you may need to wait outside the facility for your turn. Though I don’t anticipate this being an issue.
6. Staff will disinfect hand-touched surfaces after each use of bathing and drying station.
7. We no longer have NAIL TRIMS. Allison is doing mobile nail trims for the next couple of weeks and you can contact her directly. squibbstrimming@gmail.com

8. NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY

These guidelines are in place until further notice for all of us to stay healthy while sharing space in the BathHouse.

CritterTown will be closed for the mandated 30 days period 3/25-4/24, beginning tomorrow...though we hold out hope for sooner. We are confident with the added measures we have taken over the past several weeks to keep you all and ourselves healthy and will now also heed the warnings of Health Officials and follow the Governor's order to close. Our intention is to be a part of the solution and we will see you on the other side of this crisis. Thank you all for the support. We will see you SOON! I'm here until 7 this evening.

​

1. The disinfectant product we have always used does kill Corona viruses, as well as bacteria and fungus.

2. The cleaning routine we have always had in place has been augmented where it comes to hand touched surfaces.

3. To prevent air stagnation, multiple ventilation fans are in place so it may get a little chilly and it is noisy.

4. If you have ANY questions or concerns Please reach out to me.
