Simple Drop-Off, Professional Care

We keep overstimulation in check with a balanced routine that includes active time and quiet periods. You’ll receive video updates so you can see how they’re doing, and our staff monitors their health and behavior around the clock.

Dog Boarding Camp Long Island

What Your Dog Gets During Their Stay

Your dog’s boarding experience includes structured daily exercise, supervised playtime with compatible dogs, and individual attention from our experienced staff. We handle dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments—including those that need extra care or have specific behavioral needs.

Brightwaters dog owners choose us because we understand Long Island’s active lifestyle. Whether you’re taking a weekend trip to the Hamptons or a longer vacation, your dog gets the same level of professional care that’s made us one of the top dog training companies on Long Island.

Our facility features clean indoor and outdoor spaces designed for safety and comfort. Unlike overcrowded daycare facilities that can stress dogs out, we maintain structured groups and provide quiet time to prevent overstimulation.

Crate training helps create a safe and secure space for your dog, promoting relaxation and comfort when you're not home, aiding in housebreaking and reducing anxiety
You only need to bring your dog’s food and any medication they require. We provide everything else—crates, bowls, blankets, and toys are all included. This makes drop-off simple and ensures your dog has clean, safe equipment during their stay. Just pack enough food for the entire stay in clearly labeled portions, and bring any medications with clear instructions. If your dog has specific dietary needs or takes supplements, let us know during booking so our staff can follow their routine exactly.
Our staff includes professional dog trainers who work with behavioral issues every day. We can handle dogs with anxiety, reactivity, or other behavioral challenges that might make boarding difficult elsewhere. When you book, we’ll discuss your dog’s specific needs and temperament. Our trainers know how to create a calm environment for anxious dogs and can manage reactive dogs safely around others. We keep detailed notes on each dog’s behavior and adjust their routine as needed. Many dogs who struggle at other facilities do well with us because of our training background and structured approach.
Yes, we send video updates throughout your dog’s stay so you can see how they’re doing. These aren’t just quick photos—you’ll get actual footage of your dog playing, exercising, or relaxing. We know how much you miss your dog when you’re away, and these updates help you enjoy your trip without worrying. Our staff also keeps detailed notes on eating, sleeping, and behavior patterns. If anything unusual comes up or if your dog needs extra attention, we’ll contact you immediately. Most of the time, though, the videos show happy, tired dogs who are getting exactly what they need.
Absolutely. Our training background means we understand how important proper grouping is for safety and comfort. Dogs are grouped based on size, energy level, and play style—not just thrown together. We evaluate each dog when they arrive and adjust groups as needed throughout their stay. Some dogs prefer one-on-one attention with staff rather than group play, and we accommodate that too. Our structured approach prevents the overstimulation that happens at many boarding facilities. Dogs get appropriate exercise and socialization without becoming overwhelmed or stressed.
We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for holidays and summer vacation periods when demand is highest. Popular dates like Christmas week or Fourth of July weekend often fill up months ahead. For regular weekend trips, a few weeks’ notice is usually sufficient. However, we can sometimes accommodate last-minute bookings if space is available. Early booking also gives us more time to discuss your dog’s specific needs and ensure we’re fully prepared for their stay. This is especially important for dogs with medical needs or behavioral considerations.
