Your dog deserves the very best care, from the products you buy to the services you choose. At Dan’s Pet Care, we’re here to help with a complete range of pet care services. Whether you need help with walking, doggy daycare, pet sitting, or training, we’ve got you covered.

As we approach the fall and winter months, your dog could probably use a little extra TLC. The right grooming techniques can help them stand up to the harsh, cold weather and stay comfortable in the snow and ice. At Dan’s Pet Care, we offer grooming services that are personalized to your dog’s unique needs.

Winter is the perfect time to plan a vacation — families are celebrating the holidays together, kids are home from school, and it’s cold here on Long Island. Long Island winters can be beautiful, but sometimes you just need to escape to a warmer climate for a while.

About 5% of Americans experience seasonal affective disorder during the fall and winter months. This condition might have an amusing acronym (SAD), but its effects are serious. Symptoms include a loss of interest in daily activities, trouble with eating a healthy diet, and an overwhelming sense of sadness that makes it difficult to function.

Fall on Long Island tends to be crisp, cool and vibrant. Whether you’re taking your dog on long walks in the country or strolling down a city street, they’ll look especially photogenic in their very own sweater. Sweaters aren’t just for looks — they can help provide comfort and insulation, too.

The end of the year is a great time to plan trips. The weather is getting colder, and you might be thinking of escaping to a warmer climate. There are also plenty of holidays to celebrate and memories to make while kids are home from school and college.

For many of us, December is a time for holiday gatherings, special events, and adventures out in the snow. Here on Long Island, there are plenty of seasonal displays and festivities to help say goodbye to the old year and welcome in the new.

At Dan’s Pet Care, we’re grateful for everything our furry friends add to our lives. Dogs add joy, laughter, love, loyalty and warmth to their owner’s days. It’s often said, but it really is true: we just don’t deserve dogs. As we enter the Thanksgiving season, why not take some time to stop and reflect on how much your dog means to you?

Nothing says Thanksgiving like turkey, gravy and cranberry sauce. Cranberries are nutritional powerhouses for humans, since they’re packed full of vitamin C, fiber, and anthocyanins. They even contain a substance called D-mannose that can support urinary tract health.

At Dan’s Pet Care, our team members love taking our dogs out and about. We wish the whole world was built to be dog-friendly — but that’s just not the case. While there are many pet-friendly activities you can enjoy on Long Island this fall, there are a few activities that might not be the best choice for your dog.

During spring and summer, getting out in the sunshine with your dog comes naturally to many owners. But as we head towards the winter months, it’s easy to fall into familiar habits that keep us indoors too often. This November, why not mix things up a little and get out of the house for an event that caters to dog lovers?

Thanksgiving dinner is a special time to gather with family, friends, and the pets we love. It’s also a time to eat classic dishes and fill up on pie, turkey and special casseroles. While your dog might be excited about the smells coming from the kitchen, it’s important to stay vigilant to protect them from holiday hazards.

As fall arrives on Long Island, we’re getting ready to rake leaves, bake some pumpkin pies, and go to football games again. But the Dan’s Pet Care team is also setting lots of reminders to “fall back” for daylight savings time. On November 5, 2023, it will once again be time to set our clocks back one hour. So, here’s your reminder!

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on everything good in your life — including your cat! Cats love the smell of turkey in the oven, but they shouldn’t actually share in most of the human food you’ve prepared. Small bones can pose choking hazards, and many additives in your Thanksgiving recipes can be harmful to your cat.

On average, our dog's’ lifespans are much shorter than ours. Depending on size and genetic tendencies, dogs typically live between 10 and 13 years. As owners, we want our pets to live as long as possible — and there’s a lot we can do to make that happen.

Fall is beautiful on Long Island — the trees are turning red, orange, yellow and brown, and the birds are flying overhead to their winter homes. This is the perfect time of year to take your dog on long, scenic walks down city streets or quiet walking trails. The Dan’s Pet Care team will be enjoying the cooler weather along with our clients this fall.

At Dan’s Pet Care, we think every pet deserves treats. This fall, we’re looking forward to caramel apples, apple cider, and apple picking. Long Island is home to some of the best apple orchards around, and nothing tastes quite as good as an apple you picked yourself. While you’re harvesting apples this fall, don’t forget to pick some to share with your dog!
