Dog Sitters in Long Beach, NY

Owners Lauren and Jimmy create a warm, safe, and super fun environment for our fur babies! Their amazing staff are always super attentive, kind, and loving to the pups (and to us humans)! Hands down, bringing our once anxious rescue puppy, Ruby to Hounds Town Island Park was the best decision we made since adopting her 2.5 years ago! Thanks to all of the excellent care!!!!!!

Brought my pup Sophie for her first day. was impressed by how clean the facility was. The staff all seemed to really love working with dogs. Excited to bring Soph back!

Best dog daycare on Long Island! Huge yard and big spacious playrooms giving the dogs tons of space to let them be dogs! My dogs love it, I bring them all the time

If you care about your dog at all, do not trust their place and their employees’ incompetence. We took our dog here for only the second time for day care and they gave her to the wrong family - which they didn’t even realize until my husband came to pick up our dog 90 min later. They also kept my husband in the dark for 30 min and told him nothing. Apparently they take the dogs’ collars off for “safety” to play so your dog is there with no identification, and this is nowhere in their disclosures. Also, they clearly don’t ask for ID to give your dog back bc they allegedly sent her home with a random dog walker who didn’t know what dog they were picking up. Owner was more concerned with her reputation than that my dog was sent to the wrong house and was missing from their control for over 2.5 hours. I will be pursuing the matter with corporate. UPDATE: The owner of Houndstown Island Park continues to gaslight us in their response below instead of apologizing, again. Also, their response is untruthful as my dog was unaccounted for over 2 hours until we tried to pick her up and she wasn't there. Then staff had to check cameras to find her.

Hounds town is great. My dog , Arthur , always has a great time and is well taken care of. We send Arthur to hounds town for just a day of fun and for boarding when away on vacations. I trust them and always know my dog is in good hands.

Desi loves Hounds Town. Spends many a vacay there while his mom is away. He runs to the door the minute he realizes where we are. Best place for pups! Highly recommend!!! Edited July 2024. Two years later and Desi still loves going to Hounds Town. They are the best!

TERRIBLE experience!! This place is just a MEATPACKING. Left my dog for 6 days. everything is a mystery in this place they don’t show you the installation at all. I trusted them and left my dog there. For 4 days I was calling to check on my dog and they refused to give me any detail of how he was doing or even send a single phone. For a sec I thought my dog was dead. The staff was rude the whole time for no reason like they were picking on me. never again!

I’ve been sending my dog here for the past four years. Each overnight stay and each daytime stay have been great. The crew at Island Park are great and always so accommodating. They have helped me out in emergency situations. I’ve already scheduled a weeklong stay for my pup when we go on vacation. I would recommend Houndstown Island Park to everyone with a cherished pup!

We leave our lovable dog, Mate, at Hounds Town IP every time we are out of town. They always take very good care of him and he is always in good hands when he is with the Island Park crew! Pictures are posted almost every time that we leave on vacation and it’s wonderful to get photo updates every time we are away from him! Highly recommend them!!!

A wonderful place for your dog. Daycare... Overnight... Vacation... They are great for all. They match up your dog with others for playgroups & not just by size but by personality... My girl is more on the bigger side but prefers groups with smaller dogs. The people of Hounds Town recognized this without me telling them. You see the dogs coming in for the day happy to be there & leaving with smiles on their faces. This is the kind of place where you can relax knowing your precious pup is being well taken care of...

Derek has been caring for our dogs for over five years. He provides outstanding service, is reliable, and cares for our fur baby like he was his own. I wish there were more than five stars to give!

Derek is the best! I’ve never trusted anyone besides family to walk my giant Great Dane and was hesitant in beginning. Derek and Moose had an instant connection that put my stress at ease! Now Moose gets excited every time Derek comes over and I have peace of mind having someone so reliable. Highly recommend!

I can't say enough amazing things about Derek and his crew at Beach Buds! When we send our dog there I am confident that he is safe, and having so much fun! He loves playing with all the dogs, and napping with them as well. Derek and his crew ensure that all dogs that come in get along well with all the dogs, which makes us feel so good to send our dog there. They offer a variety of packages to fit your needs and Pick up and drop off options which i use often! They also sell yummy treats, toys and gear! He also offers dog walking services which I know are awesome as well. Definitely worth checking out for your pup!!

The Staff is Amazing they interact with the dogs, Ally picks up at times and brings home my dog. She’s a sweetheart then there’s Lilly she’s loves the dogs and they love her. Then there’s Scott, him and Lilly work together one in the morning in in the afternoon. In my book they are 3 A+ Staff

Great doggy daycare if you live in the area (even if you don’t and need a beach day!) you can always count on beach buds! The owner Derek is very reliable and you can trust that your dog or puppy will be in great hands! Need pick up or drop off in the area? No problem, Derek will try to accommodate you. They will also feed your dog, if needed. My dog loves it at beach buds and comes home happy and exhausted. Clean facility with a great staff, it’s the best place to bring your pooch when you are busy at work or need of a little R&R! 5 stars!

My dog loves beach buds! Derek and his team help me out so much. I am able to go to work for extended hours knowing my dog is safe and well taken care of. I usually don't get out of work until after they are closed so Derek brings my dog home for me so that I don't have to worry. He was even able to help us with our engagement photos so we could have our dog in a few of the pictures. A very valuable business in long beach

They took amazing care of my dog. Lots of one on one attention and updates to my cell during the day. They even groomed him! Stefanie was super sweet and went above and beyond! This was my dog’s first time being left with someone else and he seemed to do great with them. Happy at pick up :) It was super easy to book online just two business days in advance as well which I needed for a last minute trip. Easy to email vaccination records as well.

I can only say/write the best things about Beach Buds Doggy Daycare. Our dog, June, a 1 yo Duck Toller was a 2-3 times a week visitor for over a year (we are now living in Hawaii). She would become very excited when I asked her if she wanted to go to daycare and see Derek. Derek and his staff are friendly, professional, trustworthy and care deeply about the dogs. They offer so many services. I used pick up which was great when I had to go to work very early. I also used dog walking and knew that my dog and home would be safe. I only wish that I could find a dog daycare as special as Beach Buds in Hawaii! We already miss everyone there :-(

My dog Penny started going to Beach Buds right around the time they opened the daycare and we LOVE it! I have peace of mind all day that she's well taken care of and safe and she has the best time playing with all her little friends. Derek and the staff are all wonderful and I know Penny loves them because she jumps out of my arms most mornings because she can't wait to get inside. I highly recommend beach buds to everyone!

Beach Buds is awesome and reliable. I've been using them a few days a week for the past couple years I can can always count on them to take good care of my pup. Sometimes my work schedule causes me to cancel/reschedule walks, and they have always been very accommodating and only ask for 24 hours notice (at the latest). Alyson and Derek are the best and I get notes on every single walk in the their easy to use portal to know how my dog did that day. Highly recommend.

I don’t often go away on vacation but when I do I struggle to find someone to look over my baby doggo whom I consider my life! Lol. I am a little skeptical about boarding faculties and would rather give my baby to someone who is trustworthy and reliable. I came across DeeDee through a friend and honestly, all my worries went away! DeeDee was super professional, patient with my little demogorgon and provided lots of tips and advice that I will most definitely be using on my 1 year old mischievous Beagle. Her and I communicated daily & she provided me with pictures and videos of my baby doggo being a wonderful boy. Oh and he got lots and lots of treats and had a blast with the other doggo’s that he prob forgot about me haha. This is the first but it most definitely won’t be the last time I utilize DeeDee’s services. 100% recommend!

I absolutely love this business my dog is macho the rottwilder and he is a regular here Are you worried leaving your baby with a sitter? Maybe they wont be looked after with the same love and affection they get at home Cant go out on a family vacation because your furbaby might be a little much? Stop right there this is the place for you she treats my baby as her own all my anxiety is gone awesome communication and very reliable no need to keep looking for a sitter SHES RIGHT HERE 😂 🤪💕

Left Onyx with DeeDee while I was in Hawaii. Best groom he has had all year! He came back energetic and without weird behaviors so no complaints here!

Dee is the best! She's reliable & accomodating. We have three cane corsos and because of her skill, patience and knowledge, she's the only boarding kennel well use. Checking in/out, meet & greets are super efficient. In general Dee just puts your worries at ease when you need to travel and have no choice but to board your pet. Dee sent us pics and videos during their stay and the dogs had a lot of recreation time which I know they loved being large breeds. When we picked up our dogs after 8 days they were happy, healthy & well taken care of. We look forward to working with you again Dee! Thank you!

Khadijah’s advice on potty training worked IMMEDIATELY! She taught me how to crate train my 4 month old pug, who was on his way back where he came from, in just a few hours 😅. Thank you so much Dee Dee’s corner! 10/10 would highly recommend! …

We don’t often trust people with our dogs while we are away, not sure if what they say on paper matches their actual services as far as treating the dogs as we were if we were home… Khadija, and the “Deedees Pet Retreat” team made us feel like we were still at home with our pups. Sending us photos checking in everytime they are. Layla our oldest often gets separation anxiety when we go on trips but the pictures Khadija sent us allowed us to rest easy knowing our doggies were in good hands. We highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking for not just a pet sitter but someone who will treat your dogs like their your own. Anytime we need our pups to be safe and cared for we will always be using “Deedee’s pet Retreat” thank you for your service and love to our babies.

Dee Dee’s Corner was amazing!! Our puppy felt so at home and was treated superb by Dee Dee and her team! I highly recommend if you are searching for an easy, honest, safe and fun retreat for your dog!

I had to go away for 2 weeks and found Dee Dee's Pet Retreat literally at the last minute. 2 minutes into speaking with the owner Khadija, I felt comfortable leaving my dogs for an extended period of time. Very kind, professional, and welcoming. I was also very surprised too see how clean and spacious the area where the dogs are kept was. Very good service and would highly recommend.

Dee Dee is amazing. She’s has come to our home and given us amazing tools and techniques to begin training our 3 month old puppy. She has a wealth of knowledge, is patient, professional and kind. Most importantly she gets the job done. I would highly recommend her to anyone e looking for dog training.

Dee Dee's corner did an amazing job caring for my dog while my family was out of town for a couple of days. When we came to pick her up see looked very happy and healthy! She even seemed sad to leave. The communication with the owner is punctual, we also recieved updates while we were away. I have been working with Dee Dee's corner for about 2 years and would reccomend her to anyone who's looking for a friendly and loving environment for their pet. 5 stars for sure!

I love Cedarhurst Park!!!

Beds Bones and Biscuits is such a special place. I have a rescue who is very shy and nervous in new situations. The staff at Beds Bones and Biscuits took the time to ensure they could meet my dogs needs and keep her comfortable. My dog absolutely loves staying there. The staff is so kind and truly understands the unique needs of all dogs. I highly recommend Beds Bones and Biscuits for all your dog lodging needs! 💖

Beds, Bones & Biscuits were referred to me by a friend and we couldn’t be more happy with our decision! We had a lot of trouble trying to find the right fit for our precious girl and at our meet and greet we knew we found the right place for our girl “ Vegas.” Tena & Adam have the perfect set up right in their own home. The care, attention to detail, follow up texts, messages, photos, professionalism and the love they have for their job and their furry clients are just a few shining examples of their superior work ethic. We were gone for almost 2 weeks and we could enjoy our trip knowing they were there taking care of our dog. There is a thorough meet & greet before they take the job and everything is covered to insure the best quality care will be given to your pets and I assure you it is given ! Not only are your pets given the best of care, but also your pets will leave very happy ! All I can say is WOW ! We were totally impressed ! We need never to look for any other pet sitter with all Tena & Adam have to offer. We are very grateful to have found the very best !!! Everything was “ Pawsome” Five stars plus….. - Bridgette H.

Adam and Tena were amazing! We were nervous about leaving our pup for 11 days but they quickly made us feel comfortable by keeping us updated with texts and so many pictures. Our pup had the time of his life and will be missing his friends. Highly recommend !

The owners here really care for and take care of your pets as if they were their own. They listen to the individual way you care for your pet and will do their best to simulate that experience in their home. My 2 dogs loved their stay here and are always eager to go back. I can leave them here with no worries at all and know they are having a great time in a secure environment. This is a perfect place to provide socialization for your dog and is like a second home for them when you need to board them. Highly recommend! So happy to have found them!

Leaving review from my husband’s account as mine is not working. Tina and Adam are amazing! I have a bad experience with other day care, where my baby was traumatized mentally and physically, so I know how it feels like. My dog is totally happy with this place. And most importantly, I know that he is safe. Thank you so very much and see you soon! Lily

If you need a reliable place to watch your dogs while on vacation, this is the place. Beds, bones and biscuits took great care of my super anxious dog. We were given updates daily along with pics and videos. After a day my dog who is usually scared when not around us, looked like she was having a blast! Adam and Tena are super reliable, kind and down to earth. We will only use them from now on.

We recently brought our two dogs to Beds Bones and Biscuits for the first time. It was also an extended stay. We could not have been more pleased with how everything turned out. Tena set us at ease when we dropped them off as we were a bit nervous leaving our pups behind. She was very reassuring and explained how everything would work. While we were away she sent us updates and photos. Our dogs always looked so happy and looked to be engaged with the other dogs. They came home just as we had dropped the off. I would recommend Beds Bones and Biscuits to my friends who have dogs as I found this business to be very satisfying. Thank you Tena and everyone else.

I’ve been taking my dog here whenever I go on vacation for years. Tena always communicates and gives me daily updates on how my dog is doing. I would receive videos and pictures as well. Thank you Beds, Bones, and Biscuits for keeping my dog safe and happy! I highly recommend!

Tena and Adam have a great set up! Our dog Scarlett is very comfortable there! I feel like I have friends watching her. I 100% recommend Beds, Bones and Biscuits. 5+ stars.

Adam, his staff, and family are some of the most incredible people we've ever met. We used to go to Petsmart and our dogs were never the same when they left. So when we had an up and coming trip we really did our research before deciding where to send the boys next. Thankfully Adam came to the rescue and got back to us just in time! The dogs had an amazing time, Adam even sent us daily photos of them playing. I really love that the dogs are always out playing or out at bed time and only crated if they're training or its requested. He took a lot of time to ask about their medications and eating habits, you could just tell he really cares for the pups and its not "just a job." Its very reassuring when you're away for a long time to know they're in great hands. We will absolutely be sending Chance and Jax back for a long weekend or just his day camp!! Thanks again!

I use to come here but loyal customers with multiple dogs don’t mean anything to them! Early appointments don’t mean anything either first appointments and I was still getting my dogs after 3pm! The price always changed every visit! I go to Bones,Bath , and beyond now ! They’re awesome.. always have appointments, do a great job , and give my dog back in an hour and a half ! I’m a 3 strikes and you’re out kind of person!

Great staff! Love the service! They are awesome, my dog always looks so handsome after their grooming!

Best pet care and grooming and they truly get to know your dogs and their personalities and welcome them like old family members each time

Loyalty means nothing to this "family business". I missed a grooming appointment because of an emergency (why else would someone miss an appointment that they confirmed three times for?) When I called back to reschedule, I hear the groomer yell in the back with the nastiest attitude "She'll have to wait EIGHT WEEKS for her next appointment!" The kind man on the phone was smart enough to instantly put me on hold. He gets back on saying 'oh it's going to be tough to get an appointment blah blah blah' to which I respond listen if I'm going to have to wait weeks and weeks then forget it. He says he'll call back, okay. They called me the *next day* which just tells me they waited until the offended groomer was gone and asked the other one who worked the next day who said yes. Too late. I really trusted you guys and liked all the people who worked there and this whole interaction was really unfortunate, but if you treat people disrespectfully there will be something said. So congratulations to that nasty groomer - you just lost a customer that came about every 3 weeks, tipped 20% every single time (even though she would cut corners and not do a good job in general but I overlooked it because I understand being overworked) and never missed an appointment until this literal emergency. And lastly @TheBarrieInn please do not respond I literally don't care about what you have to say lol

My mini-poodle Brandy has been a customer of The Barrie Inn since she was 5 months old. She is now almost 12. My Dog absolutely loves going & this great place has the BEST for boarding & grooming. I have tried a few other places to save money but nothing compares to the Great Owners & Staff!

I had a trip planned prior to getting my Jack a 6 month old medium golden doodle. A lady I met in my doctors office recommended the barrie inn for training and the fido fitness club. While looking into that they mentioned they do boarding. Just picked my Jack up from his own vacation. He is pooped out from all the play and fun. They followed my feeding regimen including his special breakfast apple and learned all his quirkiness. I highly recommend the barrie inn to anyone who wants a place that loves and cares for their babies

Called to make an appointment for my dog. At first seemed nice. Then when they told me they don’t have anything available. I asked if they can give her a bath? They told me Friday at 10am. The women on the phone asked me for her name. As I gave her my dogs name I mentioned “ she’s been there before”. When she looked up my dogs name she started interrogating me why I haven’t been there over a year. She seemed so mad that I wasn’t there overly a year and told me ya I’m sorry we don’t have anything available. What changed? You had no idea who I was and was able to give me a time and day when she can come. To then tell me there is no availability. She was yelling at me and being rude. After the response I have just gotten that they are not available for another 3-6weeks. I have been told that if I bring my dog in next week she can be seen. I have brought a lot of business to this place for many years. It’s hard to have a conversation with someone yelling at you. I have been to many dog places. And this one I know I won’t be coming back anymore. I tried to be calm. And asked her why she is doing this? And she said bye and hung up. I have been there before with many dogs. If that is how you treat a paying customer then it’s fine I won’t come anymore. Just disgusting how you treat people over the phone.

Desiree, Chase, Marc and the team took such great care of my puppy. He stayed at the "Inn" for four days and made lots of new friends. I highly recommend the Barrie Inn and will definitely take Duke Ellington there again.

Amazing pet hotel. It's a 5 star retreat for our fur babies. The groomers also are outstanding. Very flexible, understanding. The facility is inpeccably clean always. You can see your babies from TV cameras within the entryway. And the price is just right. Yeshuah loves you and your soul is priceless!

Love this place and everyone who works here! The team here is fantastic and have been a life saver for our family surviving two puppies at once. Now 7 yrs old and still loving every visit. Whether it's doggie day care, boarding or grooming, the team here are the ones you can rely on to provide top tier care for your fur family. Thanks Barrie Inn /Fido Fitness team!

We have been using this company for over 5 years for three of our dogs. They have amazing availability and they are extremely understanding and flexible with our family’s constantly changing schedule. Our dog Journey got very sick with cancer and was on chemotherapy for about a year. Knowing that she had walkers who loved and cared for her was such a relief during these difficult times. I cannot recommend their services more!

In home pet service came highly recommended by my neighbors. Robyn and Taylor are always quick with their responses. The walkers that we've had are Rianne and Donna. They are puntual, reliable and truly cares for my dog's well-being. I love that they created a notebook to fill with updates of each walk. They've also been incredibly accomodating to our short notice requests, which has been a lifesaver on busy days. It gives me a peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands.

I highly recommend In Home Pet Service for anyone needing reliable and caring pet care. They have consistently taken excellent care of my two pups whenever needed. The dog walkers are friendly and genuinely love my dogs, which is evident in the way they interact with them. They go above and beyond by not only walking them but also playing with them, giving them belly rubs, ensuring they have fresh water, and providing treats. It's such a relief to know my pups are in good hands with In Home Pet Service.

We are so happy we found In Home Pet Services. Robyn and the team are always so prompt to respond and courteous to our needs from the start. Every dog walker has been professional, kind and reliable which is so important for us. We are comfortable knowing our dog is in great hands. We would recommend using them to all of our friends and neighbors!

I’ve been using Robyn and her dog walking service for many years. They are always reliable, friendly and flexible when I need to make changes in the schedule even at the last minute. One of my dogs is a rescue and wary of strangers. He was easily won over. I appreciate the walkers a lot. They are kind, professional and their experience w animals shines through in the work they do.

After three days and two nights away, I returned home to my wonderful, happy dogs. It is great to know I can now have a little vacay without the worry of finding quality, caring dog care. Thank you In Home!

Robin and company are 5 star service. I have been with them for over 10 years, and they have done a great job caring for my dog and occasionally Clyde our cat. Last year our elderly dog had gone blind and they take great care. I have great confidence if you choose their service you will not be disappointed. I cannot say enough of in home pet services.

We’ve been using In Home Pet Services for several months. We have two dogs: chocolate lab and jack Russell terrier mix. The chocolate lab was not a problem at all walker was able to take him out on a first visit. The jack russell girl took several visits and a lot of patience. Now we are getting help from pet walker even on feeding of both dogs:) while we are in hospital. For short getaways where we cannot take the dogs we will use In Home Pet Services to day sit two our dogs. Lastly the service is very flexible and reliable. Glad we’ve found this gem in our neighbourhood.

In Home Pet services is amazing. I have used them for maybe close to 10 years. I love the way they write a small note of the walk for the day. My dog is always excited and ready to go. They are also super accommodating and responsive when you send them a mail. I have only had a positive experience.

We have used In Home Pet Services since our dog was a puppy, and have had a great experience with them. Robyn is very responsive and flexible, and has always fit us into the schedule - even for last minute visits. After our visits we always get a detailed report of how our dog did & we look forward to coming home from work and reading them! Robyn also will share photos of our dog with us, it’s great to see how she’s doing with our walker! We would definitely recommend Robyn and her team, our dog loves her walker so much it relives any stress we have about leaving her home while we go to work.
