    Acme is the best! My pup is a bit of a shy girl, and the team at Acme has been so great in getting her acclimated and helping her come out of her shell! Now, as soon as we turn on 6th street, she all but yanks me down the street to get to the door and can't wait to run inside! The team is so wonderful with the dogs - they are great about balancing active time with resting time, and are always tuned in to the pups to make sure everyone is happy and safe. I highly recommend Acme! Even though most of us are working from home and don't necessarily need day care right now, it's a great place for a little bit of socialization and fun for our pups! Also - they post the best photos/videos! Honestly, daycare price is worth it just for the end of day roundups. :)

    Acme is really the only place to take your dog for day care in Park Slope and Gowanus. They're amazing, good people that are fantastic with the dogs. Our boy Rory went for almost three years until we had to move. It was his safe space where he could chase tennis balls all day long. We'll miss sending him there.

    Acme Dog Run is the absolute best!! I have been sending my pup, Frankie, for a year now and could not recommend it enough. Frankie spends at least one day per week at Acme.. sometimes two when she's a lucky pup! Every time I drop her off, I know she will have a fun-filled day with her friends and she is being cared for by some awesome humans... gives me the ultimate peace of mind to go about my day. When we moved to Park Slope I wanted to find a daycare where Frankie could run around and burn her puppy energy. We took a few trips to the local dog park, but she was shy and intimidated by some of the larger dogs. It was more challenging than I expected to find someplace that was bigger than a store front... until I found Acme! Frankie was a total wallflower her first few times at Acme, but once she got used to being away from home and got comfortable, she became obsessed. The dogs have more than enough room to run around all day, wrestle, and chase tennis balls. The front area can be sectioned off from the back, which helps them to separate any pups that may need it and also for smooth pick-up/drop-off. The humans of Acme (Matt & Sara-Sun) are incredibly attentive and on top of everything going on, making sure that all of their furry friends have a fun and, most importantly, safe place to come play every day. They make sure all of the dogs are socialized through a trial period before they are able to fully enroll, and make sure the dogs are up to date on their vaccinations. They also have live camera feeds so you can check in on your buddy throughout the day. However, the best part of the day is every night when Acme's instagram posts a bunch of pictures/videos of your dog having the best day ever. I could not recommend Acme enough. If you and your pup have ever bumped into me and Frankie around the neighborhood, we probably have already sung Acme's praises.. but if not, definitely go check them out. They are the best doggy daycare in the game!

    We recently used Acme Dog Run for over night boarding when we went out of town for the weekend and I can not recommend them enough!! Unlike other places around town, Acme is 100% cage free and has a hugggee indoor space for pups to romp around in. I loved that I could check in on them any time of day with the 24 hour webcam and that they were always supervised no matter the hour. Thank you Acme for taking such good care of my girls and tiring them out - We will be back!

    We've been fans of ACME since shortly after they opened- we've used them for half- and full-day daycare as well as drop-in dog run/play time. They would be our top choice for local boarding as well, and we'll likely use them for overnights the next time a need arises. Why do we love them? 1. The space. This is what first caught our eye. While not as large as prospect park's meadows, obvs, it's larger than most fenced dog runs in brooklyn and probs manhattan as well. There is also a mezzanine with steps that the dogs use during particularly hearty romps. There are little separate pens when a partic dog needs a time-out to calm down (my own dog occasionally benefits when she gets a little hyper/hyper focused on play when other dogs want to take naps or chill). It's wide-open, with great visibility. It's clean and easy to keep clean. 2. The staff. The space caught our eye, but the staff is what sold us and keeps us coming back. Top f*cking notch, y'all. Welcoming, warm, and *great* with dogs. Even the best, most well-appointed facility would not be worth a dollar if the people who staff it don't care for dogs, don't understand dogs and how they play, or can't read the dynamic of escalating energy. The staff at ACME is *fantastic*. They really get to know each dog, and respond to each dog as an individual. I evaluate teachers as part of my job, and they remind me of great teachers-- they know when to roll with energy and when to nip it in the bud. They know when to play and when to be firm. They know when to be a friend and when to be a boss. And they know that what that looks like with any given dog might be different. Low turnover and consistent staffing means that at any given point, there is someone watching the dogs who really knows the personalities and quirks of all the regulars, knows when to step in and when to just let 'em wrassle. They're great w people, too ;-) -- i have a ton of respect for the staff here. I know it can be hard to trust your best friend to other people-- but we trust them, and feel fully confident recommending them to others b/c of the staff. 3. The dog-run option. Too cold out? Too hot? Too muddy? Cool- ACME is still perfectly comfortable and 100% mud-free. Play fetch w your pup and a group of lovable canine buddies at ACME instead! Tire them out for 2 hours and then go home, skip the bath, and go straight to chill mode! 4. Webcams & photos! To my knowledge, ACME is the only dog daycare/ boarding/ run in the vicinity that has 24/7 webcams for registered visitors AND stunning (/adorable / hilarious) dog photos every day. Want proof? Check their Instagram. You know how i said the staff loves dogs and really gets a sense of each dog's personality? It's true, and even the pictures they take show this. And the webcams are just fun (and probs helpful to dog owners who are new to separating from their dogs and would like to keep tabs or peek) There are lots of great options for dogs and their people in south brooklyn, i know, but for dogs with a lot of energy to burn, and for whom running and wrestling and games are necessary for good health, ACME is really the best in the area, as far as I'm concerned. Oh, also: rates are fair and parking is usually pretty decent, particularly on weekends and holidays when the adjacent businesses are closed. We love them and are pretty sure you will, too. See you there?

    I cannot say enough good things about ACME. I adopted my dog Ginks in September of 2020. We had a little bit of a rough adjustment period when he first arrived and I was nervous to even take him to a daycare facility bc he was so sensitive and scared around new people, dogs + places. We would go for 2+ hour walks everyday but he would still cry of boredom when he was alone with me - it was overwhelming. The employees at ACME helped him warm up + move at his own pace until he felt comfortable to socialize with other the other dogs. Since his first visit in November, he is a completely different pup. He is happy, confident, more relaxed at home, at the park, and around other people. It has honestly transformed his behavior and our relationship and I'm so grateful for all that they have done. Ginky now pulls on his leash whenever we're a few blocks away from ACME + howls with excitement as soon as he walks through the door, he loves it there. PLUS they post amazing videos + photos everyday, host Hearts & Bones foster picks ups, food drives, and other incredible events which really help build community. They're all around really good, authentic people and we love them!

    The absolute BEST place to bring your dog! I cannot imagine bringing my dog anywhere else - I also couldn't imagine trusting someone who isn't my family to watch my dog but Acme has my full trust. The staff is fully committed to making sure the dogs have both a safe and fun time. Best part? They have live cameras in their daycare! When I drop my dog off I eagerly wait for their Instagram posts because they are so adorable of the dogs playing. Even when my dog isn't there I love to see their instagrams. There is always at least two people with the dogs at all times, sometimes they even go the extra mile to separate the dogs into two rooms throughout the day to welcome new pups or separate the more active & anxious dogs. My dog comes home so SO happy and tired after a day at Acme! I can't recommend this place enough. I'm SO happy I found Acme. No matter where I live in Brooklyn or Manhattan, I'll always bring my dog here. (Side note: if you're an anxious dog owner like me, look no further. The staff here has been continuously amazing even with all of my anxiety of giving someone trust in my dog, thank you Acme!!)

    It's hard finding a shop that offers hand stripping especially at a decent price so I thought I hit…read morethe jackpot when I found this place, unfortunately I'm going to have to keep searching. I was very specific with my instructions. No clippers, full hand strip, trim only as needed. I provided reference photos of what I wanted and even offered to send a website link that had a detailed description of how to groom this breed (since it's not one many people have ever seen, let alone worked on) along with diagrams but the person I spoke to said it wouldn't be needed. Wearily, I took her word. What I got back was not what I was expecting and frankly, it doesn't look the best. My dog is not a schnauzer, but they seemed to have given him a schnauzer skirt for some reason. He's overtrimmed when the breed is meant to look rough and natural. Besides that, the handstrip job itself looks decent with very minimal balding so that's one of the positives. I'm just disappointed that my instructions and references weren't followed as closely, especially for the price I paid.

    I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction and to inform you that I will no longer be…read morereturning as a client. Despite specifically asking that my deceased dog not be mentioned, this boundary was disregarded. That alone was upsetting and unacceptable. In addition, over the past four years I have spent hundreds of dollars at your establishment, yet I have repeatedly experienced incomplete grooming services while still being charged the full amount each time. I also do not understand why it consistently takes four hours to groom a five-pound dog, particularly when details are routinely missed. Beyond the services themselves, there has been a persistent lack of acknowledgment and basic client consideration, which is disappointing given the length of time I've been coming to you (since 2019). I am generally a very easygoing person, but between the repeated boundary violations, the inconsistency in services provided, and the lack of accountability, I have lost all confidence in your business. I will not be returning.

It aligns perfectly with the kind of love and care that I give Tucci at home, which makes it easy to trust them and feel safe sending him there.

However, be prepared for a significant administrative burden and back and forth about vaccines and updated paperwork. Our dog has always been up to date on his vaccines, including the additional vaccines this place requires. But never have I had to spend so much time going back and forth uploading and re-uploading materials. And if something isn't updated? They send you a super long tutorial via WhatsApp that's 100% not helpful. This review was prompted by my most recent encounter in which we were adding a second dog to our account. Somehow a document from the first dog - who's been at the daycare for two years and whose paperwork was not touched when adding the second dog - came off the portal and the staff insisted I re-upload that as well. Obviously frustrating And any time I have offered feedback about the challenges with the portal, the staff fiercely defend the antiquated system and blame the customer. The joy of sending our dog here is thus diminished by the frustration with the paperwork and a faulty system.

Our dog Millie, has been going to hi-bk for over two years and has loved it since day one. I'm an anxious dog owner, and tend to over worry but I never do when Millie is at daycare because I always see how happy and well attended she is. Her tag starts wagging the second we mention she's going to daycare, and scratches the door to get in if the door isn't opened fast enough. She loves the staff, always takes a moment to say goodbye before heading home after greeting us, especially if it's Richmond at the desk. They have strong guidelines about vaccines, dog's health, temperament tests, crate testing for boarding, and more which always made me feel very confortable and assured that they're putting these procedures in place to keep HI-BK safe for all staff and dogs. The space is well kept and clean. It's obvious that everyone who works at HI-BK cares for the dogs so much, they are all so friendly and welcoming, and most importantly, they are so kind and well mannered with the dogs. Millie loves people's attention and she gets lots of love and attention. I wouldn't trust anyone with the care of Millie but I would always trust hi-bk to be a safe and welcoming space for Millie. Millie has been to HI-BK for daycare, boarding and grooming and I would recommend all three to anyone who's looking for a place for their pup.
