Louis on his birthday
Mateo F.

Took my baby Louis for his birthday and I swear I've never seen him so happy before Carolina from the staff really took good care of my boy. Also Santiago in the front desk was always super nice and kept me posted on his process! Louis is coming back soon guys

I just brought my Maltese to HomeDoggy for the first time, and she looks absolutely beautiful after her grooming appointment! Her haircut is exactly what I asked for (puppy cut around the face and an inch off everywhere else). The man I dealt with was super responsive, communicative, and caring. They also did ask for vaccination records a week before the appointment so I'm not sure what the comment below was referring to. The appointment took 3 hours (8am drop off, text around 10:40 to tell me she would be ready in 20 mins, and then 11am pickup). This is very normal for groomers based on past experience at other salons. Overall super happy with my dog's grooming and will be coming back soon!

It's been a year since this awful groom and my dog's hair still has not grown back fully. The hair that has grown back is choppy and uneven. I'm so angry about this. Do NOT go here.

I wish I could rate this place lower (and I don't give bad reviews). The first time I came in, the cut was fine but the groomer had sprayed so much fragrance on her I had to put her in the tub immediately (which while I have sensitivities to fragrances, this had never happened before after a groom). The second time - oof. I can't believe. I asked for my 14 year old shih tzu to have a short puppy cut - less than half of the hair she had. They didn't listen - at all. And she came back with barely a trim and totally uneven - especially her face. I said, hey, this isn't what I asked for, this is way too long. Can you do like half or this? And they asked for me to return the next morning - which I did, gladly - and still tipped them when I paid. I just picked her up and I have never seen a shih tzu or really any dog cut like this. When I tried to talk to the owner, he brushed me off and said I wanted it shorter, so it was on me. This is not halfway between what it was - this is a straight up buzz cut - even on her face. And it's winter. When I tried to talk to the owner about it - he was flippant - and within half a block of leaving I decided no, this is ridiculous. Many moons ago I worked as a groomer at my family's vet hospital/grooming assistant, this is just the worst cut I've ever seen - so I went back and tried to ask for a refund and he literally closed the door on me because another customer was there. Dude, I've seen that you don't leave the door open and you don't wear masks - no way I'm coming inside. Moral of the story - the owner is a grade A jerk, who said at first he wouldn't refund me, but then said he would - so I guess we'll see - and who also took revenge on me and my dog (in winter) when I asked for it to be shorter. I would never trash a business, especially a small one, but this - unacceptable.

This picture I took that morning . Thank god I brought her in with a coat .

I made my appointment for Saturday morning for a face cut for pebbles. When I first came to the establishment I spoke to the owner and he suggested come twice a month once for face treatment . Only because her eyes get bad with discharge . He told me we would give her a face cut and shampoo for 40 plus tax and tip . Then the following two weeks we would give pebbles a full groom for the full price . I agreed to that . Since then it's never been what we spoke about. Actually since then I've never seen the owner after our discussion. Now I get charged 50 for face plus 15 for shampoo ?!! Plus tip . Should that not be included with the 50 ?! The bill came to , with tip comes out to 87 dollars for a face cut? Isn't that a going price for a basic groom?! I didn't say much about it. I was willing to move forward with this business any how. what got me furious wasn't the price . It was the fact that they brought me the wrong dog!!! instead of expressing to me.(ok sir ,I'm sorry for the confusion . I must of gotten them the dogs mixed up. Do you have a picture of her? )That Would of been the perfect response . insisted the response was . (No sir this is your dog) . I told him repeating over and over that's not my dog. Can you please get my dog! He kept insisting to me that's your dog . Mind you pebbles is 7 pounds and the dog they were giving me was over 15 pounds. I was getting more and more irate. Thinking if they are willing to release this dog to me, then what if they released pebbles to a client that didn't pay attention . Hardly unlikely but it's possible . They showed me a picture if a different dog. And said this is your dog . I told them for the tenth time that's not my dog !! So they went to another room and pulled another dog that wasn't mine . As well . Now 10 min go by and I'm thinking where is my dog ? They would not take my word . The groomer and the front desk , They both looked puzzled . I was now sweating and concerned. So still They kept trying to push a strange dog onto me. I explained in rage, I brought my dog to this place with a fall beige coat on . ( Thank god). They immediately went down stairs and gave me my dog. Unbelievable for 10 long mins I was Relieved !!!! As I was driving home shocked thinking they gave my dog to another customer. As they almost gave someone else's dogs to me . Almost home , I get a phone call from them thinking I'm going to get another response like . (We are awfully sorry for the confusion can we make it up to u? on your next visit and we will give you a free groom on us. Again we apologize for this mishaps .) that wasn't the response I got . I got this response instead . (Hello KEITH you didn't pay.) Demanding I come back and pay for the partial groom. I was told I didn't pay imagine how A palled I was for being accused of leaving an establishment without paying I'm no thief. Not only did they lose my dog , they insulted me insinuating I was a thief ?!! I explained to him that I paid for the partial groom . he insisted I didn't . Now I'm on the phone cross examining our payment process . I had to jog his memory and then he finally remembered . I've never been so insulted , stressed and angry , bringing my dog to a groomer before . It's been a highly anxious and disturbing morning. My dog is with me for 15 years and to think they gave her away was upsetting . I usually keep my t pebbles tag on her but when I groom her I tend to keep the collar with me. Not any more lol .. I don't think I will be doing business with you any longer because of this incident . You guys need a better system. Sent from my iPhone

I wish I can give them no stars. I went to them in the past and they messed up his haircut. But it was an easy fix. This time he went in looking like a fluffy schnauzer and came out looking like a Chihuahua. I asked for short body to the skin and a schnauzer face with short beard And straight across eyebrows instead of slanted. I feel that it makes them look very mean. And to boot they quoted me $100 prior on the website it says $100 and they want to charge me 115. This place also messed up his first appointment. I should've taken that as this place does not know what they're doing anymore. When all this stuff happen the owner couldn't even confront me. He had one of his workers. Will never go back do not suggest this place.

Downtown Brooklyn

The best dog walking company! When I adopted my dog, Cal, about 1 year ago, I had my mind set that…read morehe was going to be in day care while I was at work, but I didn't take into account that he might not get accepted, and to my surprise, despite how loving and sweet Cal is, he did not get accepted to day care due to the fact that his puppy energy was misunderstood by the other dogs. That said, Brooklyn Tails and Trails saved the day! In fact, as it turns out, I think the dog walking is better for Cal than what day care would be. Cal also loves getting walked twice a day by PJ, who is the best dog walker ever. I think he's more like a camp counselor for dogs. Cal always has a blast and loves walking with his friends, who are all just as sweet as he is. PJ also takes great pictures of Cal and his friends, and writes the most creative captions that really capture the moment. I also think the walking covers 2 needs; (1) Cal gets the exercise he needs, and (2) he gets to socialize with other dogs. Then, in between walks, he gets to nap in his own bed, in a serene environment, as opposed to being in a chaotic environment like day care.Cal has a little anxiety since he's a rescue, so having him walk with Brooklyn Tails and Trails is so much better for him. I also love having the peace of mind that Cal is safe while I'm at work, and being taken care of, as PJ comes to walk him twice a day. I highly recommend Brooklyn Tails and Trails, and if you live in DUMBO, you'll get to have PJ walk your dog. I've also met some of the other walkers, and they are all great, so no matter which neighborhood you live in, you'll have someone reliable walking your dog.

We could not have asked for a better pet sitter! Nellie went above and beyond with all of our crazy…read morerequests (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!

We've been taking our dog, Appa, to Acme for about 6 months and she absolutely adores the space…read more The staff are super caring and the space is huge with both back and front areas. Appa has had a handful of photo shoots to celebrate the holidays and her birthday. Plus Instagram posts throughout the day. You can really tell how much they love and care for the dogs. Similar to other doggie daycare spots they have a live camera to check in on your dog. They're pretty meticulous with dropping off your dog and it's so the dogs can all enjoy the ample space. We love bringing Appa here and highly recommend!

I took my dog Luna to Acme Dog Run for the first time two weeks ago for her trial and it was the…read morebest decision I've made! This was the first dog daycare I tried and I love it. When I first signed Luna up, I got a very useful email about the next steps which was a 3 hour trial that I needed to schedule. When I scheduled, I got another useful email with instructions on drop off and pick up. I love how organized everything is and there's no guessing with anything. There's also an app available where you can watch the live cameras if you're nervous about your dog's first day at daycare or anything. I'm so comfortable with having her at Acme Dog Run and love that I see updates on the app and even on Instagram. You have the option of keeping your dog there for a half day (5 hours or less) for $35 or a full day (5+ hours) for $46. If you're looking to give your dog some fun definitely give Acme Dog Run a try :)

We really cannot say enough great things about Zen Walker -- Matt. Pack walks with Zen Walker are…read moreTHE highlight of our dog - Jennifer's day. A tail has never wagged so furiously when Matt arrives.  We were introduced through Badass when he was our dog's foster.  Matt is the true dog whisperer - able to bring a group of dogs - even occasionally sassy dogs like ours - together for amazing, long walks. What he does is different than other dog walkers. He picks the dogs up in his car, drives them to Prospect Park and walks them for miles in a pack group around the park.  It is HOURS of dog fun!! Matt is a great communicator - sending us pics / videos every walk. Our dog stays with him when we go away on vacation - which is soooo relieving. Matt is super easy so to communicate with - and has really helped us understand our dog better. He is the best! So breaking it down... * Pack Walks -- great dog socializing * Long Walks -- amazing exercise for your pup * Daycare, Overnights & Vacations -- covered * Great communication -- videos, photos, poo + pee report with every walk  * Scheduling -- extremely flexible & reliable * Price -- really reasonable rates * Dog whispering for sassy dogs -- included Zen Walker is the best! We highly recommend!!!

Zen Walker beyond exceeds expectations and provides the best possible care / walking services out…read morethere! Matt is reliable, trustworthy, timely and passionate about his work. I used Matt for just about a year for dog walking services, 4-5 days a week plus overnights when I was out of town, and Matt consistently provided the best care possible to my pup. His attentive care and thoughtfulness ensures your dog will be in the best hands possible while you are away. I can't wait to one day move back to Park Slope so Bug can be walked by Matt again! Added plus, he drives around in an awesome puppy mobile, making the experience for the pups fun and iconic. His prices are also market / fair. Wish I could give 10 stars, thank you for everything you do, Matt!
