The ARK Pet Oasis is a 4,000 S.F. animal reception center comprising 47 dog kennels, 12 cat kennels, 4 isolation kennels, and a secure cargo delivery area. The facility also features an enclosed outdoor relief area, grooming tub and drying table, laundry room, food prep/kitchenette, and veterinary triage station.

ARK-branded vans for safe and temperature-controlled transport of pets. With direct airside access, ARK Pet Oasis is a Customs Bonded Warehouse and Container Freight Station (“CFS”); it is authorized to receive and handle animals that have not yet cleared customs due to late arrivals or customs holds directly from the carrier. Floors and walls are covered with a bio-secure epoxy finish that enables thorough disinfection. The facility is serviced by a sophisticated HVAC system that provides 100% air exchange to 4 separate zones. The kennel areas are well-insulated to contain sound and reduce stress. Operations and bio-security protocols are overseen by The ARK at JFK’s Chief Medical Officer in conjunction with Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine.
