Gotta Go Dog Walking is, without a doubt, the best dog walking service in Brooklyn. We lived in Bay Ridge and had the pleasure of working with Bareket for several years -- and she was nothing short of amazing with our two boys, Max and Auggie. Bareket has a true gift with animals and treats every dog like family. She consistently went above and beyond, showing up rain or shine -- even in unbearable heat -- always with a warm smile and genuine excitement to see our dogs. Often, she'd take them on longer walks than required simply because she loves what she does. What really set Bareket apart was her incredible flexibility. She was always willing to accommodate our ever-changing schedule, often stepping in at the last minute when work got hectic. Her reliability and kindness gave us so much peace of mind. We recently relocated from Brooklyn to Boston, and without question, one of the hardest goodbyes was parting with Bareket. Her care, dedication, and connection with our dogs were unmatched. I don't just recommend Gotta Go Dog Walking -- I truly believe you're lucky if you get the chance to have Bareket in your dog's life. read more

My dachshund/collie/terrier mix Tucker before meeting Baraket was struggling with both separation anxiety and accidental bathroom incidents while I would be in the city at work. Basically being home alone all day was tough on the guy.... After meeting Baraket and beginning daily walks with her, his spirit totally changed. I could immediately see when I got home from work that he was happy and relaxed - he felt exercised and that he'd gotten attention. It made a world of difference in my life and his. I recommend Gotta Go Dog Walking to the highest degree. The communication, care, epic photos of the pooches, and general positivity towards Tucker's well being, especially as a senior, has been one of the best parts about relocating to this part of Brooklyn. I super recommend contacting Baraket to set up a meet and great to begin what will absolutely improve your dogs daily life and your experience as a pet parent. Thanks Baraket for always going above and beyond for Tucker and being the best! read more

She takes such attention to detail and is always in communication - she sends videos and pix each day. 10 out pf 10!!!! Highly recommend !! read more

If you're looking for a dog walker in Bay Ridge, you've found the best one. Bareket has all of the qualities you would want in your dog walker. She's knowledgeable, kind, patient, reliable and communicative, and most importantly she loves dogs! Bareket has walked my dog, Nori, a few times per week for nearly a year. From day one, I knew she was the right walker for my dog because of how patient she was during our meet and greet. Before I adopted her, my dog was a stray for about a year, and as a result, she can be scared around new people and is often skittish around loud noises (perfect dog for NYC, right?). None of this fazed Bareket. During our initial meet and greet, Nori was a bit suspicious, but did eventually come and sit by Bareket, and before long she was comfortable playing with her. Now, Nori gets more excited to see Bareket than she does for probably any other person on the planet. Bareket sends updates, pictures and videos after each walk. She keeps me in the loop if something has stressed Nori out (which is often), and has provided me with invaluable training tips and recommendations for taking care of Nori. Bareket offers reasonable rates for daily walks, and typically keeps Nori out for longer than I pay for (thanks, Bareket!). In addition to walks, Bareket also offers pet-sitting, which I have not used, but it's nice to know that the service is available. As a former dog walker myself, I know it can be stressful to hire a new person to take care of your beloved pet, especially when that person will be entering your home and interacting with your dog when you're not around. However, Bareket's kind and thoughtful nature, love of dogs, and respect for the people around her made our decision to hire her easy. I've stuck with Bareket for nearly a year now, and will continue to work with her as long as she is available! read more

If you have even the slightest hesitation about hiring a dog walker, you can be 100% confident that Bareket will take care of your pup with as much love and care as possible. I've never met anyone who takes the safety of my dog (and all the others in her pack) so seriously. She is reliable, flexible about scheduling and my dog gets crazy happy when she shows up to get her. That tells me everything I need to know! Couldn't recommend her more highly! read more

If I can rate Bareket 6 stars I would. This is the first time I've hire a dog walker since, I don't trust people with my baby Tara. We went on vacation for 9 days and I gave my keys to my house to Bareket to walk my dog. I've left instructions to walk Tara and make sure her 2 water bowls was filled when she came back and to have my dog's paws wipes with doggy wipes when she gets back from the walk. Bareket has sent me pics daily reassuring me how happy Tara's doing. It made my vacation that much more enjoyable. I've recommended her to my other friends and all had wonderful experience with Bareket. I would hire her again! We love Bareket and already planning another vacation. read more

We have the best dog walker! In. The. World. I could go on and on about why we have the best dog walker in the world, so I will...for a bit. Bareket has been walking our three dogs for over two years. We have a medium male mix, a big pittie princess and a grumpy terrier. They are our monsters and we love them dearly. It was important that we find someone who did the dog thing full-time, understood dogs - you know...the person who gets on with dogs just as well as they do with humans...or even better with dogs - and first and foremost was smart, safe, reliable and loyal. Bareket has demonstrated all these qualities throughout our two-year relationship. She is a great informer and a friend to us and the pack. Most important bits... Bareket has walked our dogs 700+ hours over the last two years. She's never been late and there's never been an issue. Ever. I can't say that about any of the many other walkers we've had over the last 20+ years. We now use a fantastic vet thanks to Bareket's suggestion. She gives us all the updates we need and more. Our dogs LOVE Bareket, she loves our dogs and she doesn't irritate me...surprisingly important! When you're checking Bareket's references - we'll be here ready to tell you we have the best dog walker in the world. read more

Love Bereket- she treats my pup as if he was her own. She always goes above and beyond - my work schedule can be very sporadic and she tries her best to accommodate even if it's last minute. In the scenario I have to be out the whole day, not only will she take him on walks but she makes sure he has water and food when picking him up. She also takes the cutest pics so I can have an update. I recommended her 10/10. Not only will your dog love her but you will too! read more

We've been lucky enough to have some great dog walkers for our three year old mutt Harper, but with Bareket we hit the jackpot. She is more than a great dog walker who likes pups and making some extra pocket money. She PASSIONATE about animals of all kinds and takes care of your pet like they are her own. She makes recommendations for products she thinks will help (this is how we improved Harpers leash behavior) and always checks with you before offering her own treats to your pet. When boarding, she'll send pictures and updates once in a while but won't bother you. She's also trained in basic animal rescue skills so you can rest assured that in an emergency she knows what to do. What a wonderful peace of mind not many walkers can give you. Amazing quality of care! Worth every dollar! read more

After having my son I was in need of a trusting person to walk our little Chihuahua, who is like another baby to our family. I came across Gotta Go Dog Walking and met with Bareket who was lovely, caring an attentive towards Chippy. She has been a true lifesaver during these winter months when I can't get out as much with the baby. Chippy is always so happy when he is back from his walks and overall Bareket is trusting, genuine and very kind hearted. Anyone in need of a dog walker should definitely work with Bareket so you have peace of mind and a happy dog! read more

My dog is 16 and has a particular personality at his age. He fell in love with Bareket immediately and a mutual love affair was born. At his age and carriage, he's got some special needs like being carried down the steps for a shorter walk, and Bareket made it happen in a special way that made me comfortable. Dexter (dachshund) always was happy when I came home from work and I always knew the reason why. Logistically, Bareket is flexible, timely, and generally amazing. read more

Bareket was my savior when moving to a PLG. My dog Milo became immediately attached and it was clear the care and patience B takes with all their clients and pets. Always flexible and kind and willing to make it work! Milo always came back happy and ready to sleep at the end of walks and was always excited and waiting for B to knock on the door. Would highly highly recommend for anyone looking for a dog walker in south Brooklyn! read more

Bareket is everything you could ever ask for in a pet sitter and more. Bareket is a true professional with a heart of gold. She took such great care of my persnickety elderly cat while I was away. She even made sure that I was home as planned to make sure my cat was not alone. It's always a bit delicate to entrust someone new with your beloved fur-child and your home. I feel like I hit the jackpot in having the good fortune of having Bareket come into our lives. I recommend Barekat 200%!!! read more

Absolutely wonderful dog walker! I have two little pouches who love each other but aren't great with other dogs, so she always worked with me to arrange time for solo walks. Recommended a local vet and was always so attentive and caring! We've been so so lucky to connect with Bareket, I've always known I can trust her with my dogs and that they're safe and happy spending time with her! read more

Bareket has been my dog Olive's bestie/walker for the past 3 years. It has been amazing having her support with walks, daycare and overnight stays. I know that when my dog is with her she is so well taken care of and I am so grateful. She really loves animals so much and it shows. Olive loves her so much that she doesn't usually want to leave after a sleepover. We are so sad to move neighborhoods because she can't come with us. Bareket, thank you for a great 3 years! read more

I would give 10 stars here if I could. Our dog Goose instantly loved Bareket and gets so excited whenever she comes over. He cannot wait for their walks together. Bareket is incredibly organized. She's a great communicator, is precise about timing, sends daily updates about the walks and is responsive to our changing schedules. I cannot imagine a better suited or more trustworthy person to care for our pup. I feel so grateful that we found her! read more

My large English yellow lab fell in love last weekend...with the owner of GottaGo Dog Walks in Portland, Oregon. She is capable, intelligent, beautiful, and very knowledgeable about dogs! Do yourself a favor and hire her to walk your dog, or treat him to an overnight or a long weekend. My dog was there three nights and was clearly NOT missing me one bit! She sent images every day that were so much fun.....will return again, for sure.... read more

Bareket has been walking my dog, Brix, since we moved to the neighborhood 2 years ago. Brix was a puppy then, so Bareket has been able to see her grow up and be integral in helping her learn to walk and behave on the leash. It's been such a relief to me to have such a reliable person I can count on to take care of my baby. My job is all over the place, and Bareket is super flexible when it comes to being able to pick up Brix. Highly recommend! read more

Her compassion and love for animals is obvious and she has been an objective and supportive ear during this difficult time. I highly recommend her services. read more
