Pet boarding/training near Bronx

“Had to leave a review for KingSpat NYC! This was my baby Rossie's very first grooming, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations. She came out looking amazing and smelling like a $1,000 bill! 😍✨
Omg Josh was caring, professional, and made sure me and Rossie felt comfortable throughout the whole experience. You can tell they truly love what they do.
If you're looking for a place you can trust with your fur baby, this is the spot, y'all — 100% recommended! 🐾❤“

“Jay is incredible. I adopted Theo in November, and to say he has a lot of energy… understatement. Jay helped me build an amazing foundation with his training. He’s amazing while walking on a leash, never pulls. Within a few weeks we were able to be off leash at the beach. So happy with what we’ve learned. Thank you, Jay!!“

“Easy Wag is THE BEST place to take your dog in FiDi - hands down. Our dog Barney has been going here since they opened and he is in love with the place.

The staff are great - you can tell they all truly love dogs and the owner Richie is awesome - very knowledgeable… he knows what he is doing.

If you live in FiDi and need dog daycare, you should 100% go to Easy Wag.“

“I was bracing for exorbitant costs for a routine mature lady cat checkup. Dr Ball was really nice, patient, and reasonable. She is also a very good educator and I think all pet parents would benefit from all her helpful advice and care. The staff, as usual, were kind and friendly. I was quite pleased with the appointment. The experience made me want to come back and have Dr Ball keep taking care of Mochi to provide the best quality of life for the cat. Thank you!“

“This place is incredible. By far the best in the neighborhood for grooming, daycare (with dropoff/pickup!) and boarding.“

“I can’t put into words the great work done by Pawsies and the amazing staff that work there. Not only is the facility clean and safe for your furry friends the staff goes above and beyond to make sure they deliver great customer service they make sure to give the best experience for your furry friend’s. I won’t feel comfortable leaving my baby boy Kobe at any other facility. Highly recommended and thank you PAWSIES for all you do!“

“My dog had a multiple dental extractions . Doctor explained the procedure and put me at ease .
Everyone I spoke to was very professional and competent . I highly recommend this clinic“

“I took my pup Cooper for a haircut and was very pleased with the grooming. The appointment was easy to book, and the front desk was very quick and responsive over email. I had a couple of pointers for the grooming, and everything was done to my satisfaction.“

“Our dog was terrified of going to the groomer after some negative experiences at other groomers. Upon picking her up from Throw me a Bone, I have never seen her happier post grooming. Not only was she happy to see me, she was incredibly affectionate with the groomer—a clear sign they had treated her gently, kindly, and with love. 10/10 would recommend.“

“Joel and the team at CityTails are nothing short of incredible. They go above and beyond, and treat your dog like their own. I have a small rescue that is anxious and I've noticed such a positive difference since starting to send her to CityTails. She loves the team so much and can't wait to spend the day with her CityTails family.“

“Pupculture Tribeca has been a life saver for me and my dogs with separation anxiety. The employees there love dogs and are very flexible and friendly - I’ve been a few minutes late to pick up a few times and everyone is kind about it. They are reliable - open even during snow storms!! And have long hours to accommodate work schedules. The groomers also do a great job.“

“So happy with Vivi's services and attention to detail. You can tell within seconds of meeting her that she genuinely loves what she does and will do whatever is in the best interests of the animal. This was our first time bringing our cat to a groomer, and she was super helpful in answering all of our questions. He looks (and smells!) great, and we will certainly return in the future!“

“Writing this review for both myself and Lucca ( my fur child), we cannot thank Joseph with K9 Starr training enough. He not only brings a great vast understanding of dog's mindset, behavior, and progression, Joseph is patient, honest and very eager to solve any issues you bring him regarding your four-legged friend.

Lucca, my fur pal, is 6yr old 70 lbs rescue presented with severe reactivity and obedience issues that grew worse and worse with his age. Before training with Joseph, Lucca and I's walks would be bring us both a lot of anxiety not knowing if Lucca would completely loose his mind, barking with force and pulling in any dog's direction. The breaking point occurred in line at a coffee shop. Lucca saw a fellow dog in line and freaked out and in the process of reeling him back in/ calming him down - I broke my finger - then needing surgery.

Joseph broke down the training basics and obedience skills not only instructing and training Lucca, but myself , as a dog owner as well. With constant practice and communication with Joseph over our 3 training sessions, Lucca has 180 'ed his behavior. His obedience is at a level I honestly never thought I would ever reach with Lucca. Lucca and I walks have become more enjoyable and less stressful for the both of us. We have frequented the same coffee shop where the finger incident occurred- and Lucca is able to sit my side while I drink a large cup of coffee- totally calm and unreactive towards dog and people!! -Truly amazing!

As dog parents- of course we love our fur children unconditionally, but with this training and unlocked new Happier relationship with Lucca - we are able to enjoy our company together so much more as owner and best fur pal.

If you have a dog, that has any issue, I hope this review further encourages you to reach out to K9 Starr dog training.

“I have been using Pupculture since Rocco was a pup he’s now 1 years old . The day care is great for him to socialize and he is exhausted when he comes home from all the playing . Pupculture sends me pics and videos of him through the course of his time there and clearly he is having fun . He is also groomed there and Fatima is the best . He always comes home even more handsome than when I left him .“

“The Dog Institute is truly exceptional. From the moment I first spoke with Elizabeth, the owner, I knew we had found the right place to support us after bringing home our American Shepherd puppy, Ruby. In that very first phone conversation, Elizabeth could hear the uneasiness in my voice. I was feeling overwhelmed and stressed about doing everything right to raise our puppy well and give her a great life. Elizabeth immediately put me at ease with her calm, thoughtful approach and clear depth of experience.

Since then, The Dog Institute has been an incredible resource for us. Ruby attends Play & Train regularly, and it’s easily her favorite thing in the world. The staff are fantastic: friendly, attentive, and clearly very experienced with a wide range of dogs and personalities. It’s such a positive, well-run environment, and we always feel confident knowing Ruby is spending time with such a great group of people and dogs.

We also work with Elizabeth for Ruby’s 1:1 training sessions. Her knowledge and experience really shine in how clearly and effectively she teaches both dogs and their owners. The sessions are practical, approachable, and incredibly effective. Ruby soaked up her early lessons and quickly grew into a confident, well-behaved puppy thanks to Elizabeth’s guidance.

We feel so lucky to have found The Dog Institute and are incredibly grateful for Elizabeth and the entire team. We’re excited to continue working with them as Ruby grows.“

“Biscuit and baths at Yorkville Is Cooper’s favorite place. He loves Gianna and Ashley so much that in the mornings when I’m leaving the home and getting him into the car, he knows where he is going. Gianna shows so much love to Cooper and I’m sure that she is like that with all of the Dogs that she works with. In the mornings, when Cooper sees Ashley he goes crazy, wagging his tail and jumping. He is always happy to see her. That tells me that they show love and really care about all the dogs that they are responsible for throughout the day.
Thank you Gianna, Ashley, and the staff at biscuits and bath for what you do for Cooper and all the other dogs in your care. You are GREAT.“

“Very happy with the care & service we receive - long time customer and hope to continue working with Riverside for years to come!“

“My dog Winston loves daycare at Paws in Chelsea! He has separation anxiety and they make sure to make him comfortable while he adjusts after drop off. He comes home happy and tuckered out from all the fun play time :)“

“This vet is great been going there since my dog was 6 months, they are patent and very helpful!“

“The puppy socials were so great! We also were struggling with some fear/anxiety with our puppy and Suzanne and Melissa helped us solve the problem in just two private sessions. Highly recommend!“

“Honestly, this place is lovely. I have been to many vets over the years and I have never felt as safe as I do here. They do not shame- my cat is overweight and they remained focused on a plan, not on making me feel like a bad pet parent. Whats even crazier is that my cats do not fear the carrier. While they will cry in the car once they are in the vet office they are calm. They come home relaxed. I think about all the trauma my other cats had at previous vets and it honestly breaks my heart knowing this was an option the whole time. VCG are profoundly lovely and caring people.“

“Instinct is the best!!! My dog is a regular here and I’m so, so glad I found it when we first adopted him. He’s done the board and train program, daycare and he regularly boards here while we’re away. Everyone is so good with him, knowledgeable and so friendly. I love that they do small matched playgroups, and are experts in dog behavioral health it makes such a difference. I honestly think him attending regular daycare here through adolescence made such a difference in his development and sociability - something I would not have been able to do on my own. And my dog absolutely loves it here. Every time we get here he can’t WAIT to go in, he doesn’t even look back at me when I drop him off. I know he’s in great hands and I trust them completely whether I leave him there for the day or for longer periods. Couldn’t recommend it more!!“

“It was my first time at What’s Up Dog leaving my dogs for boarding while I give birth. I have been to many daycares and have never experienced such kindness and love from a daycare like What’s Up Dog. The staff is amazing and super understanding and accommodating! The boys were so happy and thrived, they sent us updates and were always on top of everything. I couldn’t imagine going into labor without the staff’s support and help. Honestly the best experience I’ve ever had from a daycare and they truly care and it shows. They also sent the boys home with bags of treats which was the sweetest thing ever! Shoutout to Kendall for just being the best and kindest person ever?“

“Wonderful small business that takes good care of my baby! I don’t go often because it’s a pain to get to DUMBO but I will go out of my way for a grooming“

“I just picked up Sally from her first visit to Puppy Tale Lodge. The staff was so nice and welcoming. She looks great! They did a wonderful fully grooming for her. I was very pleased with our/her first experience and we will definitely book her next visit!“

“Michael is an incredibly talented photographer with a great eye for detail and storytelling. The entire experience felt professional, relaxed, and enjoyable from start to finish. The photos turned out stunning — natural, creative, and beautifully edited. He made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured moments perfectly. Highly recommend .michaellevyphoto for anyone looking for high-quality photography and a great overall experience!”“
