Store
Tara R.

Loved this store. I made a stop in while in Boston to grab my dog a few treats. I always like to bring him stuff home when I go on a trip without him. The prices were pretty good and the selection was huge! We feed our dog raw and natural food so this store met all the requirements. The store employee was super friendly. I def would recommend this spot.

My pup eating the dried chicken treat from Polkadog Bakery

I'm obsessed with this doggy shop. As a dog owner, it is really difficult to find quality locally made but reasonably priced food and treats. Polkadog Bakery meets all of my doggy's needs. My dog is in love with the dried cod skins and dried chicken treats from here. If you bring back the plastic tube container the cod skins are in, you will receive 10% off your next order. When we came here my dog had high anxiety because we were in a new unfamiliar shop. She wasn't able to try out any of the treats! So the lady working there made her a sample treat bag. That way I could come back and buy whatever her favorites were. Such great service!! And they even make doggy birthday cakes!

chews galore

My little puppy Chauncey is in the chewing phase of his life (16 weeks) and I'm so glad that I found this store. It's offers a great natural options of chews galore. My first time in the store I tried out the fletcher stick and received a complimentary bag of chicken jerky. Chauncey loved both which brought back to polka dog to try other chews. The second time coming here I asked Christina for help and she was a gem. I purchased the no rawhide salmon chew per her suggestion. I'm sure Chauncey will love them. If you gave a dog I highly recommend to come here. Your dog will love you and you'll leave with an empty wallet! :)

If your dog is eating from Polka, they sure as hell are living the good life. Perfectly situated in South End, there is a quaint and adorable place that makes dogs really happy. There are birthday cakes, gigantic bones that are still covered in a little bit of meat, treats of all kinds and even a little section with a showcase of other snacks for your dog. Sure, the prices may be a bit high, but who else can make your day better with a quirky smile while their tongue sticks out? You will also find unique treats and play things that make typical pet stores seem below average. There are duck snacks, bully sticks (Do you know what that is? You should ask), deer antlers, 5 pound bones, dried pig snouts, and I will let you discover the rest. Also, the staff seems very friendly and because of that, the price is fully justified. Polka Dog Bakery is a human's version of Mike's Pasty or Modern. Wouldn't you be thrilled to come home to a box of cannolis?

Happy Barkday treat and two pupcakes
Emily C.

Very cute and shop in south end. Without any prior research I was expecting it to be a full blown bakery, and hoped to possibly buy a custom cake for my dog's 7th birthday. Unfortunately, their selection was smaller than what I was expecting. Although I did see about 4-5 varieties of prebaked dog treats (including pupcakes!), there were more regular treats than baked goodies. The baked treats were very hard. I have a 7lb Yorkshire terrier and he loved them, but it took him a few minutes of picking at it to finish eating. On the bright side, the ladies on shift were very nice and helpful even though I wasn't very needy. I will probably come back for other stuff or treats for a bigger dog.

Absolutely love this place. Large variety of homemade treats and toys. The people that work there are so kind and knowledgeable about dogs and what they should and shouldn't be eating based on the age / breed! They're super friendly and obviously love their job. Also, they always give free samples any time I've come. My favorite thing is to go to the Peters Park dog park and then stop by on our way home. Definitely recommend to all dog lovers.

D'Tails is an adorable little pet boutique- this review is for the location on Berkeley street…read more My small senior mutt comes to D'Tails for daycare during the week between 2 and 8 times per month. Originally, I selected them because of their convenient (for me) location, but I've become loyal to them for many other reasons. Let's go with three: 1. Flexibility. Daycare hours are pretty extensive (check their website for the most up to date information) - right now they are 7am-7pm. I usually find that the store is staffed before 7am, even. I like the flexibility of being able to drop in as needed and pick her up whenever is convenient for me on any given day. The cost of daycare (and any other purchases I make (just go right to my card on file. Easy! 2. Communication. Every day that I send my pup to daycare, I get text updates about what she's been up to, whether or not her potty break was "productive," and something nice like "have a great day!" 3. Kindness. After only a few visits, the staff quickly remembered my dog's name and they always welcome her (and me!) when I drop her off. I know that my dog is not without her quirks, but I've never heard anything but praise and love for her from the staff at D'Tails, which is just so sweet. They're all true animal lovers there who treat pets with compassion and pet owners with kindness. They are also a business that is very clear about their inclusivity- specifically very LGBTQ friendly. You can't put a price tag on all of that, but theirs is very reasonable! Again, check the website for the most up to date information but right now Daycare is $21-$36/day depending on the length of your pup's stay. Downstairs in the daycare space, there seems to be a setup for every type of dog. Crates for pups who like a comfy den-style nap, soft beds for rests, chairs for pups who want a great view of the rest, and floor space for playing. I also know that the staff is more than willing to cuddle with or hold your dog if that's what pup wants... like mine often does! The only constructive thing I could offer is that it does look pretty dingy down there, but I mean... it's a play room for dogs and it serves its purpose well! There are also lots of treats and goodies and adorable sweaters in the shop upstairs. Can't go wrong! I know that they also offer walking and grooming but I've not used those services. It feels so good to have a group of people- from Dawn the owner to the wonderful staff like Rachel, Kendra, Christiana, Mary and more - who I can trust to care for my beloved little mutt!

I had been looking for a trustworthy and good groomer for my little anxious Shih Tzu for months. I…read morewanted a place with a groomer that I could trust, in an environment that's not too overwhelming for my already anxious dog. I was so happy with the job that Melissa did. Really fantastic. I dropped him off first thing in the morning and he was ready within an hour which was perfect. I tried Dog Bulter in the past but after 4 hours they called me to say that my dog is being aggressive. That was news to me, but it turned out that they had 25 other dogs roaming around at the same time. That explained the behavior. They were nice but not suitable for my dog. So I'm happy that I can take my dog to D'tails where the grooming is done more on a one on one basis. I found it a little too pricy but my dog seemd to had a better experience so I'm ok with that.
