Cat Boarding · Chantilly, VA

Cat boarding in Chantilly, VA —
their own space, their own pace.

Cats have their own way of doing things. They need quiet, privacy, and care that's built around who they actually are. At Nova Pets Health Center, cats board in their own dedicated room — private condos, daily enrichment, and a veterinarian on-site if anything comes up. Family-owned since 2001.

What cat owners say about boarding at Nova Pets.

★★★★★

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Keisha! She is truly one in a million. I recently boarded my kitten and was very nervous about leaving her, but she went above and beyond to make the experience stress free for both of us. She took the absolute best care of my kitten, treating her with so much love, patience, and genuine kindness. What stood out most was how thoughtful and reassuring she was — anytime I asked for updates, she would happily send me pictures and videos daily, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her sweet, bubbly personality made every interaction such a joy, and it's clear she really cares about the animals as if they were her own.”

Where your cat will stay

Their own room.
Their own condo.
A space built for cats.

Our cat boarding area is a dedicated, cat-only space designed around how cats actually prefer to live. Quiet, calm, with natural light and plenty of space to move around or curl up.

Each cat stays in their own private condo with a cozy blanket, litter box, and food and water bowls. Condos have individual air filtration so the air stays clean and fresh throughout their stay. The room itself is calm and low-stress — a retreat, not a kennel.

Most cat boarding facilities are not attached to a veterinary practice. At Nova Pets, Dr. Masood and his team are on-site during business hours. If your cat develops a health concern during their stay, we don't call you and tell you to find a vet — we handle it here.

Daily care

We follow your cat's lead —
not a fixed schedule.

Some cats want attention and play. Others want to be left alone to nap in their condo and observe the world from a safe distance. We pay attention to who your cat is and care for them accordingly.

Feeding on your schedule
We follow your specific feeding instructions — the right food, the right amount, at the right times. Bring your cat's regular food to keep their diet consistent and avoid stomach upset.
Play & enrichment for social cats
Cats who enjoy interaction get supervised playtime in our enclosed cat room — climbing stairs, chasing wands, and getting plenty of attention from our staff. Daily enrichment that's actually tailored to what your cat enjoys.
Quiet space for shy cats
If your cat prefers solitude, we respect that completely. They'll have their private condo, their routine, and staff who check in without forcing interaction.
Medication management
If your cat takes medication, our team administers it on schedule. Our veterinary background means we're comfortable with complex medication protocols.
Updates when you want them
Our team is available if you want to check in. We know leaving your cat can be stressful — we'd rather you feel at ease than wonder how they're doing.
