Overnight stays are completely cage free — pups cuddle up with each other, and with their human pack leader. Activities run throughout the stay, so every dog can move between play and downtime at their own pace.
Get started
Our group environment feeds each pup's playfulness and sense of adventure — and because every dog has their own character and tempo, we work with you to pick the enrichment and activities that actually suit yours.

DOGMA runs on transparency. Once your pup is checked in, log into the doggy camera from your portal — it’s the best show in town.
We hire for knowledge of dogs and love of them in equal measure. Our team reads each dog’s temperament and comfort level — and understanding discerning New York clients and their pups is DOGMA’s forte.
Our two-story facility has big windows so your dog can take in New York’s hustle. Staffers play with the pups and let dogs play with each other; toys come out in the morning.
Every pup gets a 10–15 minute relief walk — daycare dogs once a day, overnight boarders twice. You can also book 30-minute, 1-hour and 2-hour walks.
Afternoons are for sunbathing after a busy morning, with crates available for feedings and naps. Daily activities run throughout, because smart New York dogs need to be challenged and engaged — that’s what our Agility Play Groups and classes are for.
Your dog is sure to rub paws with some of the friendliest dogs in the neighborhood. Between agility playgroup and overnight boarding, they'll make new friends to bark about.
Your first time? Dogs, like children, engage with new humans and new dogs in their own way. On first and subsequent visits we monitor every introduction closely — especially any pup showing shyness or anxiety.

Lilly was a rescue that lacked confidence. She required a leash to complete the course. Her experience with agility made her a star! Each session includes specific challenges and you get individual feedback
Per Michael; She has been coming for a long time and I’d say that the first six months she did not want to do anything. No hurdles, no a-frames, did not take any treats..Now she runs the course without hesitation, even jumps the three combo hurdles which is a lot higher then herself, she is a small dog. Go Lilly
Jamie is the best! I have been going to her for 10 years with my Choo since 2 of her previous stores and she is absolutely the sweetest groomer you will find.

My 2 – year old dog Cashew loves Dogma! I always feel safe and comfortable leaving him for a week or weekend vacation here.
My 2 – year old dog Cashew loves Dogma! I always feel safe and comfortable leaving him for a week or weekend vacation here. He gets to attend long walks, agility playgroup and play as much as he wants with other dogs. I highly recommend Dogma for all dogs who need to get their energy out and have a safe environment to stay at while you are away. They even send updates of photos while you are away and you can schedule everything through an app, love it. He always runs towards the door with excitement when we arrive at dogma and leaves happier than ever. Best place ever for your dogs!
Our corgis, Bonnie & Clyde, have settled very well into Dogma. The staff are kind and patient with them.

Most pet parents can agree, trying a new daycare can be scary. We went to DOGMA to qualify for agility courses.
Most pet parents can agree, trying a new daycare can be scary. We went to DOGMA to qualify for agility courses. Leaving Dolce was easier knowing that the play areas have cameras and I could check how he was doing during the day. You could tell Dolce was treated with care upon returning and the goodie bag after a first successful day was a nice touch. Excited to come back and try agility!
I can sum what I love about Dogma very easily: my dog is thrilled to be there every time we show up and happy as a clam every time we walk home. What else is there?

Best dog daycare and boarding in NYC! Like many dog owners, one of the most stressful elements of traveling is providing for the wellbeing of my dog while I’m away.
Best dog daycare and boarding in NYC! Like many dog owners, one of the most stressful elements of traveling is providing for the wellbeing of my dog while I’m away. With Dogma, any time I leave town, it’s like Rocco is going on a vacation too. He always comes back so happy and exhausted from all the fun he had. The staff is so knowledgable, caring, and communicative. I am particularly grateful for the work Cynthia did with Rocco. When Rocco displayed aggression towards another dog, she worked with him through 4 personalized at-home sessions to help address the root cause of his stress and safely reintegrate him into playing with other dogs. Now, he socializes with confidence and makes friends easily. Five very well deserved stars!
They love your dog. Your dog loves them. That’s the deal.

Just picked up my Pom Wolfgang who is groomed by the master Shiro!! As a 35 year resident of Soho and a born and raised city person; he is by far the best!
Just picked up my Pom Wolfgang who is groomed by the master Shiro!! As a 35 year resident of Soho and a born and raised city person; he is by far the best! His lovely personality and his talent: outstanding! My dog doesn’t even turn around to say goodbye to me when I drop him off! I love the place physically. It has a very calm zen environment. I feel they know how wonderful Shiro is, and that makes me like them all the more. The place is clean, and if I ever had to leave my dog in daycare I would have no qualms about leaving him or her at Dogma. The staff are professional and friendly. They are the best‼️
