    AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!! Besides having the worst cut I've ever seen, the owner was absolutely horrible to work with after I noticed my dogs ears ALL cut up. He refused to acknowledge he did this (as if it just happened overnight). I saw another review stating the same thing, so it seems like it's a reoccurring pattern. For context, my dog was extremely matted. We have been traveling for the last 6 months and I did go too long without an appointment for her. I do acknowledge that it requires her to be shaved down, but NEVER should they let a dog go bleeding without informing the customer. I know mistakes happen, and gave him the chance to make it right, and he refused to take any blame. Absolutely horrible customer service. He's rude, a bad groomer, and not willing to understand his customers. Her ears were SO bloody and cut up. I've never seen anything like this. She has not been her usual happy self since the cut and is clearly traumatized from it. Do not make the same mistake I did and take your dog here. Anytime I've taken her to a groomer, they spend hours and hours on her, while he took 1.45 hours. He clearly just wants the money and does not care about anything else. I've never felt the need to write such a negative review, but want to save anyone else from taking their dog here. UPDATE: a week after her cut and constant shaking her head, I noticed this GIANT clump of fur in her ear... the amount of neglect during this cut is absurd.

    Woody loves his groomer!

    The best Groom our wheaten terrier "Woody" has ever had! Woody is a strong and sometimes difficult dog to groom. Master Groomer Michael was able to groom him perfectly! The appointment scheduling was super convenient, we called in the morning and our boy was finished by the afternoon! My favorite thing about the groomer is the way he treats the dogs. You can feel safe leaving your babies with him because he treats them so well. At the end of the groom our beautiful boy was so happy, clean and perfectly groomed. Woody's skin and coat is shining bright! Thank you Michael!!!

    WARNING - THE REVIEW WE READ ON HERE ABOUT PET PROMISE ENDED UP BEING B.S! As a store to get great treats, this is your spot! BUT I brought my 10 month old puppy in to be groomed and had a terrible experience. The owner told my wife 'he may need to shave him', when she came to pick him up he was shaved down to a zero. Our dog with amazing long hair was shaved down to a zero... Looking at a review from 8/26/2020 by someone named Shri made it seem like this would be handled differently. Shri mentions that he had patience, and it took a few hours... My experience was anything but that. It took an hour and half, at most and he just completely shaved him without letting us know he was going ahead with that. The communication was abysmal to say the least. My wife picked up our dog and when I went back to discuss with the owner what he had done he just kept bringing up that he cuts show dogs and wanted to show me pics on his phone of it. Again, my puppy is 10 months old, we're first time dog owners and we don't have a show dog or expect a drop off and pick up without communication (you are a groomer!) if you're going to completely shave our shelti-doodle. Needless to say we'll probably be going back to the groomer in Williamsburg that we've gone to (just moved to Dumbo this month), who at a lower price spends much more time, TLC and sends picture updates and doesn't just shave every inch of your dog to a zero.. WTF!

    Michael does a fantastic job grooming my cat, been going there for 5 years. Great that I can set appointment and have timely drop off and pick up. My cat is in good care.

    fresh cut!

    Mike is master groomer, very caring, and he has a special way of putting my cat at ease! Cat groomers are hard to find in the city (it's its own license and most places only do dogs!) -- Mike is worth the ride to Dumbo; definitely recommend!

    Mike did such an amazing job with my Pyrenees! He was recommended to me through people on Nextdoor app and I'm so glad they did! Well definitely be back!

    Michael was able to take all of the mats out of the fur of Leela everywhere. Honestly I don't think there are any other groomers here who would have the patience to do this kind of grooming. It took a few hours and was a bit pricy since I got a fully professional show grooming to take out every single mat individually, but it was well worth it. Leela was happier than ever with him and coming out of there she's so energetic. Glad I took here, he's a local guy working out of his own shop, but prolly better than any other groomers in ny

    I'm so glad they're still open during this difficult time. It was the first time I groom my Maltese puppy, so I have no idea what I want him to look like. Mike said he will choose it for me, and my puppy came out soooooo cuuuute. Would go there again for sure.

    Taken my dog to Pet Promise multiple times, and Mike always does an amazing and thorough job with her! She comes back fluffy and clean at an affordable price.

    I have been coming here for grooming for a year now. They are super acommodating and Mike does a greedy job with our two Bernedoodles!

    Lovely local spot. We get our Pomeranian's hair cut here and we always love it! Mike the groomer is so nice and get can even deal with our not-so-nice dog! He's one of the few people she'll let near her and we appreciate their caring handling of her.

    Best grooming place for cats
    Daniel F.

    Great place for grooming my cat and buying pet accessories! I called several other places in Brooklyn, in need of grooming my cat, but could not find any that would do the job. I also missed my first appointment with Sarah and David, but they were really kind about it and gave me another one right away. Honestly, to be located in Dumbo, it was very affordable too.

    New owner of Pet Promise
    Kiai K.

    Very happy that this co-owner of the Clark Street pet store in Brooklyn Heights has recently bought Pet Web Express. Since arriving two days ago, he has been making a list of items customers want along with their phone numbers. He also remembered me from a couple weeks ago, when he happened to be in the store when I came to ask for the 4th time if the old owner ordered the food I wanted. Sure enough, his other store had ordered the food and it was waiting for me to pick it up. Hours are extended, 9am to 9pm. So, no more lugging dog food from Manhattan after a late day at work. Lots of changes are planned including more stock and a pet boarding area.

    I feel Dumbo post pandemic is the Doodle capital of the world, you can't go two blocks without seeing some type of golden, Labra, or Bernedoodle.

    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.

    My RATING is ZERO STARS! The website won't let me put ZERO…read more My sweet dog Miles (a Bedlington Terrier) is not easy to groom and he is very scared of other dogs. Miles and my partner and I have been working with a wonderful dog behaviorist, Heidi, for over a year now. Heidi has helped Miles have a happier life. Heidi spent a while trying to help us find a good groomer for Miles. (The one groomer that Miles loved recently moved to Florida.) Heidi spoke with Ania for at least 20 minutes and I spoke with her for about 15 minutes, both of us explained the special needs of Miles. In particular, we explained that he is scared of grooming and scared of other dogs. We also had a preference for a groomer who was not a man, since Miles feels less comfortable with men. Both of us told Ania we were willing to wait until she returned from her vacation so she could groom Miles instead of her recommendation, Gabriel. Ania insisted that we use Gabriel, that he is very good with all dogs. Both Heidi and I complied with Ania's wishes based on her recommendation. She suggested we have the first appointment at 10am so no other dogs were present. We trusted Ania. Imagine our surprise when we arrived and there were four dogs in the shop at the same time as Miles!! Worse still Gabriel told us that he knew NOTHING about our special requests for Miles!! Apparently, Ania ignored everything Heidi and I discussed with her. Miles, Heidi and I left, never to return again. From the looks of a few reviews we are not the first to complain about Ania not listening to requests. Conclusion: if you have any special requests for your dog DON'T USE BFF PETWASH!!!
