    Rufus at his trial day
    Arielle S.

    I have a 4.5 month old Frenchie named Rufus who just had his boarding and daycare trial. We also had a different trial the previous week at another neighborhood doggie daycare. While that experience was good, the care and feedback I received from Arnold at NY Tails was a different level. When I picked him up and asked how it went, I got such a nice overview of his time spent there, and how he was with the other dogs. He even noticed silly personality quirks of his. And most importantly, Rufus seemed really happy when I picked him up! I totally understand why this place has a waitlist for daycare, the attention and love the pups get is unmatched! I can't wait until a spot opens up so Rufus can be a regular. Thanks for taking such good care of my little guy!

    Outdoor space, making new friends

    5 stars doesn't do this boarding justice! If I could give 10, I would. NY Tails is the best boarding/day care on the Upper East side. They are a small, "Mom and Pop" family feeling daycare (in the owner's apartment building) with an outdoor patio that you can't beat! I recommend this daycare to EVERYONE. Why? Easy booking, extremely friendly and engaging staff, kind owners, and they are ON TOP of their dogs. Once you join, you are invited for a Trial, and if passed, they set you up on a GroupMe Chat. Here they update you on vaccines/shot updates and it's where you can communicate 24/7 while your dog is in boarding. While there are no cameras on site, do not be concerned - they will send you updates on GroupMe of your pups playing with other dogs, videos, or napping. You can also follow their NYTAILS instagram account for Live updates-I love watching Brooklyn and Mocha (my pups) playing while Mom is outta town. I feel extremely safe leaving them here with such a loving, attentive staff.

    I've been using Bark Ave for a few months now and haven't been able to rave enough about it! They…read morego so above and beyond and really care about your furbaby. I always get super fast responses through email so I'm comfortable knowing that they're readily available in case of an emergency. In case Rusty chewed up anything (he's 7 months old, you know how it goes) they helped clean it up and were totally transparent about it! They even replen his water bowl, etc. My Rusty always looks forward to his daily small group walks and I rest easy at work knowing that he's in great hands. The rates are also incredible- the quality for the amazing price ($12 for a small group walk, $22 for private!!) is unbeatable. 10/10 stars isn't enough!!

    Used their services regularly for our rescue mutt for about a year (2021-22). At first, Carole the…read moremanager was very responsive and helpful over email and our dog seemed happy with the walker, Darrel. The service we agreed upon was for Darrel to walk our dog and then put out his food and fresh water for him before leaving. There were frequent problems-- small at first-- with following the instructions. Darrel would forget to refill the water dish or would not close the refrigerator after feeding the dog (the dog food is in there). Each time we communicated the problem to Carole, she would tell us she'd remind Darrel but the problems continued. Once or twice, Darrel left our apartment door unlocked after walking the dog and bringing him home (luckily nothing bad happened). The final straw was that Darrel forgot to feed the dog a couple of weeks ago. We reached out to Carole to address the issue, which to us represented an escalating pattern of inadequate care for our dog and disregard of our simple instructions. Her response was that she "didn't like the tone" of our email, said that feeding and not charging extra for it was "doing a favor"-- charging extra to feed the dog was never something that was mentioned to us AT ALL throughout the course of the year we were using their services-- and proceeded to say she would no longer work with us. No apology, no attempts to make things right-- just an unwillingness to take feedback and accept responsibility when something that jeopardized the well-being of our dog happened on their watch. We have moved on to another walking company and are much happier with their services and willingness to communicate. The only reason I gave 2 stars instead of zero is because these mistakes didn't happen every time our dog was walked and there were some weeks throughout the year where everything went according to plan. Would very much recommend against using this small business since they don't take responsibility for their mistakes, don't respond effectively to requests to correct them, and simply terminate their working relationship when you point out flaws in their service.
