West Orange, NJ · Family-run
Ink & Tails
We're Doug and Luiz. We look after a small number of dogs at a time in our own home in West Orange — daycare during the day, overnight boarding when you travel, a fully fenced yard, and your dog's routine followed the way you wrote it down.
- Small groups
- A few guests at a time, on purpose.
- Fenced yard
- Secure, gated outdoor space.
- Two of us home
- More eyes, more hands, all day.
What daycare and boarding include
Daycare runs on your drop-off and pickup times, with yard breaks, play, rest and feeding or medication given exactly as you describe. Boarding keeps the same food and schedule your dog has at home, with a sleeping setup matched to their preference and a crate available for dogs who like one.
Every new guest starts with a meet & greet before their first stay. Rates depend on the service and dates — ask us and we'll tell you straight. Full service details.
More about our home and us
It's a house, not a kennel: a fenced yard behind two gates, quiet rooms for dogs who want their own space, and our senior French Bulldog Gus, who mostly supervises from the couch. We keep the guest list short so nobody gets lost in a crowd. Our home · Contact us
