Board and train in New Jersey — FAQ

How many board and train programs are there in New Jersey?

This directory lists 117 board and train programs across 90 cities in New Jersey, including Toms River, Jersey City, Marlton. Listings are verified against each business's own website; the directory grows as new programs are added and confirmed.

How much does board and train cost in New Jersey?

Expect roughly $1,500–$6,000 for most New Jersey programs. Metro-area trainers and those keeping only a few dogs at a time charge more; rural kennel-based programs tend to be cheaper. Behavior modification for aggression or severe reactivity runs highest, often $4,000 and up for a four-to-six-week stay.

Is it worth traveling within New Jersey for a board and train?

Often, yes. Because your dog stays with the trainer, you only make the trip at drop-off and pick-up — so a two-hour drive to a trainer who specializes in your dog's specific problem usually beats a nearby generalist. The main reason to stay local is the follow-up lessons, which are easier to attend if the trainer is close.
