Pet boarding/training in Brooklyn

“Really happy with this service for my five-year-old, energetic dog. The meet and greet was simple and straightforward. I get a daily update with photos after each walk, which is nice to have. Would definitely recommend.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​“

“We could not have asked for a better pet sitter! Nellie went above and beyond with all of our crazy requests (and we had a lot ?). She sent me SO many pictures and videos throughout her visits, which made me feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was absolutely on point—super quick, clear, and thoughtful.

The best part? The night we came home, my two cats were literally sitting by the front door… waiting for HER. I was a tiny bit jealous (lol), but mostly just so happy knowing how loved and cared for they were. ? She truly treated them like her own.

If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and totally in tune with your pets, Nellie is your girl. We’re so grateful we found her!“

“Amazing experience and my girlfriend loved it food was amazing service was great da workers was nice“

“We took our dog Francine here many times over the years for self-serve baths and for nail trims. Staff is always friendly and professional, and they know who Fran is every time she walks through the door. Highly recommend Bark Slope for all your pet grooming needs!“

“I really have a very difficult dog. He's a puppy and he's huge and fully teenager. They are so great with him and he loves going there. Also they have a lot of space so he exercises enough and naps when he needs to.“

“it was great. I got to speak to the owner. He was amazing the employees were super sweet. It was a very smooth process and my dog has so much fun there. I would definitely recommend they’re very precaution and careful with their pups.“

“Opie's did such a fantastic job on my Sophie. Everyone always comment on how pretty she looks after she's been groomed there! In a very satisfied customer!“

“My dog Spider and I were lost before we found Dani at Urban K9. She's overcome reactivity to wheels AND been crate trained even after the rescue said it would never be possible thanks to the sturdy support and expertise from Dani. I'd highly and heartily recommend this for any doggo and their person who need more confidence navigating life together.“

“Simply the best - friendly, responsive, accommodating, and I think our dog loves Strutting Mutts more than he loves us!“

“I can’t express how much Hi-Bk is a part of our family. I have been sending our amazing dog Tik Tak for over 3 years and he is always happy to get to daycare. He is not a rambunctious dog, and I love that they have dogs by temperament, not size since all small dogs are not the same! Beyond anything about the day to day - hi bk alerted us of medical situation that Tik Tak was having which led to an early diagnosis for a very serious condition - they literally added years to his life, not sure what more you can ask for from doggy daycare!“

“These guys do a great job! We trust them with our pup and have had zero issues. Iris always loves her walks. Jason and team are easy to communicate with and provide a good service for a fair price. We have been with them for a couple years now and am so thankful we found them to trust our pets to. Highly recommended!“

“Love Red Hydrant for my mini-schnauzer. Owner Jeff is extremely kind and adaptable with dogs of all breeds and attuned to each dog’s specific needs. If you’re based in Brooklyn, there are so many daycare/boarding options and I’ve evaluated a few.

Red Hydrant makes the process of boarding painless and I always trust my dog will be in safe and caring hands when in their care.“

“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“

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

“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?“

“I made an account just to rave about this place Dr. Lutanskiy is amazing he helped my dog with his upset stomach, and his staff were so kind. Most importantly the prices were fair, and they were upfront about everything. An honest vet is rare in New York.“

“I have been using Pawsability for over a year now, and they are undoubtedly the best dog care facility I have used. They exceed expectations in every category, and go above and beyond to make sure both the kiddos and parents are taken care of, while operating as a non profit which directly impacts members of the local community. A great indicator of how excellent they are is the lack of employee turnover, which is often an issue with other facilities. Not only is the daycare great, but having the onsite grooming is a game changer. I am truly grateful that Carmela and I have Pawsability.“

“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.“

“Kramer’s daycare evaluation “audition” at 33 Bond was only a few hours, but he seemed to have a great time! He enjoyed meeting new friends and had lots of fun playing with them. As his hooman, it’s just as important that I feel good about leaving my boy in a new place and the staff made me feel comfortable and confident that he was in good hands. The space has a good vibe and although we don’t currently have a need for daily daycare, we look forward to returning as a recurring guest!“

“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.

- Nat & Lucca“

“We love GoDoG and highly recommend them for dog walking and boarding. They have been walking and taking care of our dog for 8 years, since he was a puppy. Our dog loves all the walkers and when he gets to board, and looks forward to every walk. Everyone is super nice and we have total trust in them. Our dog is a handful and GoDoG minimizes all anxiety. A great part of the community.“

“Working with Dominik has been a game-changer for our (almost) 1 year and a half Vizsla. As any Vizsla owner knows, they are incredibly high-energy and sensitive, which can make training a challenge. Dominik’s balanced, common-sense approach was exactly what we needed. He helped us establish clear boundaries and solid obedience while still respecting our pup’s unique personality. The transformation in his focus, recall, leash walking and manners is night and day. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly understands dog behavior (especially for high-drive breeds) we cannot recommend Dominik enough!“

“my girl looked so pretty and she smelled amazing and they kept her ponytail i cant wait to take her again 🥰“

“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!“

“Yana is amazing!!! Right from the start meeting my 1 year old Golden Retriever Cash they bonded great. She was able to educate me on so many things that would help me with him while she trained him. He’s perfect now! She also boarded him and he was a happy boy!“
