The Hamster Lodge™ is NYC’s premier boutique homestay for your little furry friend!

​

We board at our Lower East Side lodge and offer house visits across NYC and New Jersey — because some pets are simply happiest at home.

​

With a limited number of guests at any time, we provide cozy, climate-controlled accommodations for hamsters, rabbits, gerbils, guinea pigs, chinchillas and other small exotic pets. Each guest enjoys a comfortable space designed for exploration, play, and relaxation.

​

We take a holistic approach to pet care, prioritizing your pet's physical, emotional, and environmental well-being. From personalized enrichment activities to gentle handling and stress-free environments, we ensure every guest receives the attention and comfort they deserve.

​

As a founder-led boutique, we are deeply passionate about small animal care and continuously invest in education and training to offer the best experience possible.

​

Spaces fill up quickly — we recommend booking 1–2 months in advance.

​

Thank you for trusting us with your furry family member!

​

Sincerely, 

Stella & The Hamster Lodge™ Team
