Loving care for your dog while you’re away

Looking to travel but don’t want your dog to stay in a kennel? We’re here for you.

We offer boarding to our clients’ dogs who partake in our group nature hikes or dog walks on a recurring, weekly basis or who travel often. Our guest dogs stay at our beautiful farm located on 190 acres of land in central Connecticut, where we have large rooms for the dogs to relax and sleep in, large fenced in potty and play areas, as well as 60+ acres of fenced in woods to romp in!

Schedule Boarding for Your Dog

What is Dog Boarding?

We help care for your dog while you’re away! Our boarding service includes pickup, drop-off (upon the day of your return), daily media posts, and regular updates via the Time To Pet software we use.

Your dog will be entertained, exercised, socialized, and well-loved while you’re away.

We offer our pickup service in the mornings and drop-off service in the early afternoons, six days a week to our client’s homes. (Every day except Sundays). Please send your dog with a labeled bag with their food, any instructions for feeding, treats, and a blanket if you’d like. Please do not send dog beds or crates :).

Dog hikes are required for each day of your dog’s boarding stay with us, including their pickup day and drop-off home day. If your dog is not able to hike every day due to age, soreness or injury, we will adapt to meet their needs by substituting in outdoor playtime and potty breaks in lieu of hikes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you pick up my dog if I’m not at home?
Most Active Dog clients provide us with one of the following: a hidden key location, an unlocked door or a garage code. Whatever you are most comfortable with.
How much fun will my dog have?
A ton of fun! Most of our client’s dogs can’t wait to jump into the van after they’ve gotten a couple of hikes under their belt. Some dogs even wait by the door each day waiting to go!

What if my dog is aggressive with other dogs or people?
We offer a dog training package that could help with this, but if your dog is aggressive with people or other dogs we cannot take them out on group hikes for liability reasons.
What is your cancellation policy?
We allow our clients to cancel services up until 7 PM the night before. If a service is canceled after this time frame, we charge a 50% cancellation fee.

If we show up to walk or hike a client’s dog and either cannot get into the house or the dog isn’t home, the event will be completed, the client will be notified of the reason their dog did not join us and the client will be charged in full.
