The Perfect Stay for Every Pup. Boarding That's Tailored to Them
Leaving your best friend behind can be stressful. For dog owners in New York City, finding reliable dog boarding near you can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be. At Lucky Dog, we’ve reimagined dog boarding in NYC. We moved beyond the one-size-fits-all kennel model to offer a range of professional boarding options to prioritize personalized care that perfectly suits your dog’s needs and gives you complete peace of mind.

Dog Boarding That's Right for Your Pet
We know that every dog has a unique personality. That’s why we offer three boarding and care options, so you can find the perfect fit and location for your best friend.
City Boarding Centers: Our dog boarding in Chelsea and Weehawken is a fun and social getaway. These centers offer supervised group play and safe dog boarding with comfortable overnight arrangements for a great night's rest.
Upstate Country Retreat: Give your dog a true vacation! Our exclusive upstate New York facility is a paradise for dogs who love to run, play, and explore. With 15 acres of securely fenced-in land, your dog can romp in the fresh air and enjoy the freedom of the countryside. To make it completely seamless, we have a dedicated shuttle service that safely transports your dog from NYC to our country retreat and back.
In-Your-Home Care: Is your pup most comfortable in their own space? For the ultimate peace of mind, one of our trusted and bonded caregivers can come to them. We offer overnight stays or drop-in visits, so that your dog's routine is completely undisturbed while you're away.
Our Process is Simple and Safe
The Consultation & Meet-and-Greet: Your peace of mind starts here. We require an initial meeting to get to know you and your dog. This ensures we are a perfect fit for their temperament and allows your dog to become familiar with their caregiver and environment.
Reserving Your Dates: Booking is easy and secure. Once you're an established client, you can request dates through our client portal. We’ll confirm the details, so you can plan your trip with confidence.
The Staycation Begins: During their stay, your dog will enjoy a full day of fun, including walks, supervised group play, meals served on their regular schedule, and plenty of downtime to relax. And of course, you'll receive your daily photo updates!
Packing for Their Perfect Stay
To help your dog feel comfortable and to ensure we have everything they need, we recommend packing a small bag with their essentials.
Food: Enough for their entire stay, plus a little extra, to keep their tummy happy.
Medications: Any necessary medication or supplements with clear instructions.
Leash & Harness: Their own properly fitted gear for walks.
Favorite Bed or Blanket (Optional): A familiar scent can be very comforting.
A Familiar Toy: One or two favorite toys to make them feel at home.
(Please make sure all items are clearly labeled with your dog's name.)
