Dog daycare · Staten Island
Four dogs.
That is the whole day.
Not a room full of dogs taking turns to be noticed. Four, every day, with the same people who groom them. Your dog has a place that is theirs, and we know them by the end of the first week.
$95 a day for your first three months
Why four
A small room is not
a smaller version of a big one.
It is a different thing entirely. Four dogs can be matched to each other. Four dogs can be watched properly rather than counted. Four dogs means the quiet one is not spending the day avoiding everybody.
It also means we cannot take everyone, and we would rather say that plainly than pretend otherwise. Places are held by enrollment, and when the four are taken, they are taken.
The day
What your dog actually does
- A full day, always. We do not run half days, so nobody is collected mid-afternoon and unsettles the room
- Structured play in small matched groups, with real rest between
- Supervised the whole time by the people who groom here, not by a camera
- Quiet space for any dog who wants it, and every dog wants it eventually
- A note at pick-up on how the day went, honestly, including the days it went badly
- Grooming on the same visit if you want it, without a second trip across the island
How it starts
An assessment day first, always
Tell us about your dog
Age, temperament, how they are with other dogs, what they find hard. The honest version is more useful to us than the flattering one.
An assessment day
One full day with us, charged at the day rate, so we can see how your dog settles and you can see how we work. Some dogs are happier at home, and we will tell you so.
Enrollment
If it suits your dog, we agree which days are yours and hold them. Vaccination records and the care agreements are handled before the first day.
What it costs
Two numbers, both of them now
Daycare is $95 a day for your first three months, then $125 a day.
We print the second number because you would ask for it anyway, and because an introductory rate that hides what comes next is not an introduction, it is a trap. Both figures are in the enrollment policy you sign before the first day.
Full days only. Nothing else is added at pick-up.
Is there a place free?
Four a day means the answer is sometimes no, and we would rather tell you that on the phone than leave you wondering.
