Paws Country Club

Paws Country Club provides dog boarding and dog daycare in New York, NY, from its facility at 301 West 113th Street in Upper Manhattan. The club takes small, medium, and large dogs, and someone is on site around the clock, so overnight guests are supervised at every hour. Reservations are made by phone at (212) 501-8700.

Services

• Overnight boarding that includes four 30-minute walks a day
• Doggie daycare with indoor play space
• Dog grooming
• Dog walking and in-home kitty care
• Pet pick-up, drop-off, and transportation

What sets it apart

Boarding here is built around walks rather than crate time. Every overnight stay includes four separate half-hour outings, which is a real difference for a high-energy dog stuck in a city apartment the rest of the year. The staff is bonded and insured. Handlers will also give medication on an owner's schedule, something that matters for senior dogs or any dog on a daily prescription. Owners who board or use daycare often can set up a membership plan and have it customized instead of paying visit by visit. Cat owners are covered too, though that care happens in the client's home rather than at the club.

Practical details

The office is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and closed Saturday and Sunday. Overnight rates run from $70 to $105 per night depending on the dog. Vaccination records are required before a stay. Booking is by phone rather than an online form, so plan on a call. The pick-up and drop-off service means a dog can be collected and brought back home, which helps in a neighborhood where plenty of owners do not keep a car. Paws Country Club also posts to Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube if you want a look at the place before calling.
