Compassionate, Experienced Pet Lovers. We're here when you need us!

For over 15 years, we have been serving the pets and families of our local area as well as remain active in community programs. We provide care for your pet as if they were our own, and ensure that they receive the highest quality care while you're away, whether that's for the day, the week or the month. 

This is not a job for us or a passing hobby. It is our career and how we support ourselves and families.  We love caring and connecting with animals and creating everlasting relationships.

It’s a tale (tail?) as old as time: girl has crazy Wall Street job, gets married, has a kid and moves to the ‘burbs.

Girl goes through an insane divorce and wants to change her life. Enter doggie daycare. 

What started as a simple marketing position in 2006 soon blossomed into a full general business management position, including learning dog behavior and training under master trainer Michael Gould, for the two original Hounds Town locations. 

After working for Hounds Town in that capacity for 6 years, Marianne decided to take the plunge and buy the Port Jeff location on January 3, 2012. In June of 2021, Marianne opted to go independent and thanks to some creative naming friends, All Aboard was born. As if all that wasn't enough, Marianne is also a recent breast cancer survivor and thriver! 

Degrees and other fanfare include a BA from LeMoyne College and an Animal Behaviorist graduate degree from the University of Washington. She is an active member of the Port Jefferson Rotary, sits on the Women’s Advisory for the Town of Brookhaven and is a member of Decisions. We have won numerous “Best of” awards and boast having both a vet tech and vet assistant on staff.

The team is headed up by Kayla, also our groomer extraordinaire. Emily is our most senior canine wrangler and can be found working most any shift. Then we have Nick, our very own "dog whisperer", who when not at All Aboard can be found hanging out with his own quad of four-leggers. We round it all out with Jennifer, Bri, Brianna, Saul, Aylin, Dillon, Justin, Cecilia and Brendon! You may occasionally see our seasonal help Ben, Paul & Aaron depending on the time of year and how crazy we are!

We are always prepared for any pet's needs and ensure that your pet will receive the best care and love. Their joy and care is our priority and we strive to provide a service we would want (and often utilize) our own pets to receive. 

A senior staff member or the owner is always onsite for any questions or concerns you have. 

We may not take ourselves seriously but we promise to always take your pets' needs and wants seriously!
