Happy Tails Pup Experience

Happy Tails Pup Experience is a dog boarding and daycare club at 120 Duane Street in New York, where dogs play cage-free by day and sleep in private suites at night. Daycare, boarding, grooming, training, and veterinary consultation all run out of the same Tribeca building.

What the facility offers

Boarding comes two ways. Dogs can stay on site in furnished private suites, or go home with a staff host family through the premium in-home boarding option. Published nightly rates run $140 to $175, depending on which one an owner picks. Caregivers are on hand around the clock, so overnight guests are never left alone in the building.

• Private, furnished dog suites
• Themed play rooms and indoor play space
• Grooming and training on site
• On-site veterinary consultation
• Pickup and drop-off

What sets it apart

The place is built for more than drop-off and pickup. Owners get real-time live updates of their dog during the day, which matters to owners who spend the workday wondering. There is a dog café and retail store on the premises, and an event space used for parties and celebrations. Themed rooms and outdoor space give dogs a few different places to spend the day.
