I’ve been bringing my beagle, George, to Puppy University since May 2020. I work in New Jersey and live in New York, but even on my days off I will travel to NJ to bring George to Puppy University. I have tried daycares near where I live for days that I’m not in NJ and they were awful. This place cares about all the dogs and treats them like their own. George is always so happy when he gets to daycare and is nice and tired when I pick him up. The best part of this place is that they don’t just like put the dogs in a pen and leave them. The staff members engage with them all day! We love Puppy University so much! Also a note on the training: George had his training sessions here as a puppy. When anyone heard I was getting a beagle, they told me how terrible beagles are and that they are so difficult to train. George is so obedient and listens to all of his commands thanks to the trainers at Puppy University.

My little pup, Mango, has been going to Puppy U since November 2021 and I have to say that this place is literally the best doggy day care in all of Hudson County. The facility itself is clean, bright, and welcoming, the owners and all staff members are friendly, professional and super sweet to my little Mango. They have great seasonal activities for the pups, excellent grooming services, and some of the staff members offer boarding /dogsitting. Most importantly, I know my pup is in good hands and that he always comes home happy and tired. Thank you Puppy University for everything that you do. Mango and I love you guys! ❤🐶🤗

I love seeing my dog Kyro happy and excited coming to this place. Every time I would take him, he knows where to go. Run to the front door and wait to go in. I feel secure leaving him for half of the day knowing that he's being taken care of nice people. All of them are so very nice, friendly and professional!! Keep it up!!!

Puppy University has been so helpful in training my puppy. As a first time pet owner, they take the time to teach you and go step by step on what is needed to help your pooch be trained. Day care services are awesome, my puppy comes home tired and knocked out. 🐕🐶🐾

Frequently Asked Questions
A dog daycare or doggie daycare is place for your pup to spend the day while you are away. At daycare, your dog will get to meet new friends and engage in interactive activities, but more important, they will be well taken care of.
Prices for doggie daycare usually start at $45 and go up depending on the location. At our facility, day care starts at $30 for a half day (6 hours) and $45 for a full day. We do offer multiple day packages where you save on the daily rate.
In order to maintain a safe environment for all dogs that attend our doggie daycare, we require all dogs be current on the Rabies, DAPP (Distemper, Adenovirus, Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus), and Bordetella vaccinations.
At our facility, we require male dogs over 6 months be neutered. Female dogs do not have to be spayed, but they can not be present in the facility if they are experiencing their heat cycle.
We aim to provide a secure environment for all our furry guests. This helps maintain safety and minimize conflicts.
Doggy day care is a good way for energetic dogs to burn off some of that energy and shy dogs to come out of their shell. A good day care might teach your pup some good manners along the way.
All dogs must go through an evaluation with one our trainers to determine if your dog is a good fit.
Yes, we certainly do! In addition to our daycare services, we support your extended care needs with a top-tier dog boarding service. Our highest priority is your peace of mind: know that during your absence, your beloved pet will still enjoy the top-notch care, fun activities, and nurturing environment that our daycare services are known for, but round-the-clock.
