What the day looks like

Playgroups are matched by size and play style rather than by whoever happens to be in the building that day. Every dog attending daycare or boarding gets a private cabin for nap time, meals, and overnight stays. The setup is aimed at dogs who need a break from steady play, with quiet time built into the middle of the day. The cabins measure 6 feet by 4 feet, and each one comes with a comfy cot. Owners are welcome to send personal items, bedding, and safe toys or bones along.

Practical details

The Bloomfield facility is open 6:30 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Friday and 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Saturday, and it is closed Sunday. Booking is handled by phone at 860-461-1116. Vaccinations are required before a dog stays. Published rates run $20 to $45 per night. With 40 cabins, space is finite, so calling ahead for holidays and busy summer weeks makes sense.
