We've been long time customers of Prospect Bark (over ten years), and there's a reason for our loyalty: they take excellent care of our dog, are reliable, and are completely committed to our dog's wellbeing. Andrew walks our pup a couple times week and has stayed with her overnight when we have travelled. He sends regular updates with photos and videos and she adores him. She gets tons of belly rubs, treats, and attention, and we can relax, knowing that she is in great hands. read more

We adopted our puppy about a year ago. We were nervous first time dog owners and we don't know what we would have done without them. Any small bump in the road was met with a quick response and a solution. They always met or exceeded our needs even with my wife's and my busy and ever changing schedule. We recently moved out of Brooklyn and one of the things we will miss the most is them and especially our puppy's primary caretaker, Beth M., who was exceptional. You can tell she really loves dogs and we always felt safe leaving her with our baby. And we know our puppy will remember her with love and miss her more than even we will. read more

ProspectBArk! - Riesling - Dog Walkers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We used Prospect Bark for our cat when we went away and are thrilled to have them on our puppy raising team now with our new addition! Having a tiny new addition to the house is hard and for an overly protective pup mommy like myself, the Puppy Package is an absolute must! They not only provide help with potty training and basics but Chun-Soon has been there a few times to just talk me down after a rough puppy night! We love our puppy care giver, Duncan! He comes to walk and play with our new puppy two times a day and we could not be happier with the care he gives to our baby! It has got to the point that we absolutely live for his extremely detailed update texts after both his visits. It's so hard to leave our little one at home while we work but Duncan and the Prospect Bark team make it so much easier! Honestly, I can't recommend Prospect Bark enough for anyone with a new puppy and we will definitely continue to enjoy them beyond the puppy growing pains! We love Prospect Bark!!!!! read more

Happy client for the past 5 years! ProspectBark has taken great care of my little cat any time we've been away - easy to use portal, very helpful and kind customer service, extremely reliable, organized, and the sitters do great with our shy cat! I love getting a photo every day when I'm away to know she's happy and cared for. I strongly recommend this great service to anyone looking for pet care, have never had anything less than stellar experience in probably over 20 visits over the years! Thank you team at ProspectBark!! read more

Jen, from ProspectBark helped train my puppy from 8 weeks old. She was so helpful, gave me lots of useful tips and tricks, and even took me to Petco to help with puppy supples (this was my first dog so I needed some guidance!). My doodle is now well behaved and incredibly well trained thanks to Jen! read more

What can I say about their dog trainer, Jen!? She has the most incredible energy - every dog loves her, even the grumpy ones! She started working with our rescue dog, who was in a hoarding situation in the past, had no manners when it came to greeting other dogs and knew no commands. He is a completely different dog now. Jen understands dogs on a deep level, and is super knowledgeable about animal behavior. He now sits without asking for treats, he's started using calming signals to calm himself down in anxious situations. She also took the time to explain her tactics to me and help me learn how to continue training on my own until our next session. We know so much now, all thanks to Jen! read more

If you're looking for top notch service and care, look no further. We have used ProspectBArk for over 6 years with our yellow Labrador Retriever. We first contacted ProspectBArk when our pup was only 3 weeks old. Chun-Soon, Matt & Tim quickly made time to made a personal visit to meet us and answer all of our questions. We saw how accommodating and trustworthy they were and never looked back. Over the years, we have had several team members care for our pup but each have been with us for at least 1-2 years. Four years ago, we moved to a neighborhood that they didn't even service because the neighborhood didn't have many dogs. They found a way to service our new neighborhood and eventually grew the clientele in the area. We're so thankful because otherwise we would've been stuck using wag. Which we tried once but quickly learned that the walkers on wag are not consistent and a stranger will eventually have the keys to your home. In summary, ProspectBArk is great at what they do. They're loyal, trustworthy and simply wonderful human beings that care for our pets. read more

We've been using Prospect Bark for three years in two different neighborhoods (Financial District and Upper West Side) and have always appreciated Chun Soon's dedication to her clients and dog walking in general. The service is reliable and the walkers are lovely people. Would highly recommend! read more

ProspectBArk! has been such a help to us over the years. They have caring walkers who have all done a great job with our rescue pup, who has some quirks that can make walking her difficult at times. They're always patient and understanding. Also super east to pay bills, cancel or add walks online. read more

Catsitter assigned to me for 3 days of 2 daily visits did not send a message on the morning of his first visit. I contacted Prospectbark asking if the sitter had any problems getting into my apartment to feed my cats. Prospectbark responded they assumed the sitter had been able to get into my apartment to feed my cats, that the catsitter had lost his phone so he could not send any messages on WhatsApp, they hoped he would have his phone later that day, and that the sitter was communicating with ProspectBark by email whenever he was home. The sitter sent a quick message to me in WhatsApp after the evening visit but no pictures to confirm he was actually there. Isn't the whole point of sending pictures to assure that the sitter is actually there and the pets are being fed? Especially when there has been no communication as expected from the sitter? On the second day of the visits I was told one of the cats was vomiting foam. I know this happens when there is too much time between feedings and the cat is not getting enough food which is why I paid extra for visits before 10am and after 6 pm. I decided to cut my trip short and came home early. ProspectBark was kind enough not to charge me for the late cancellation of the last visit. read more

We've been lucky to have ProspectBArk! catsit for us since 2016. Their staff are extremely friendly, reliable and thorough. They really take good care of our cat and we always feel at ease when we travel or have to be away. We always receive updates every time there's a visit with pictures as well. Their online booking system is also really convenient and easy to use. We're so incredibly lucky to have found ProspectBArk and would recommend them to everyone! read more

The whole team at ProspectBArk! is phenomenal. We have been with them for about 5 years and they have always been there for our pup. They are reliable, friendly, and they go above and beyond for our animals. I would highly recommend them! read more

We have been loyal customers of Prospect Bark dogwalkers for a number of years now. They are incredibly flexible and really do a great job. We now have them walking our 2nd dog after our first passed away a few years ago. Both rescues with issues but not a problem for Prospect Bark. Highly recommend. read more

The BEST pet sitters!! We've used Prospect Bark for years, first for regular cat sitting and then for overnight stays as our sweet kitty got older and needed closer care and medication. The cat sitters are nothing less than amazing!! Every stay was like a mini spa vacation for my cat to be pampered and adored. The level of communication (including lots of photos!) and professionalism is exceptional. They make it so easy, working around my schedule for any logistics like keys or meeting a new sitter. And they are always available, even for major holidays. This is a woman-owned business and the owner is so engaged, caring, and community minded. Seriously, everything about this company is awesome and your pets will love them, too. read more

We used prospect bark for 5 years. They were always amazing. We took several trips over a week every year and every time our cats were very well taken care of. This year we left for a month on two occasions and each time our cats were very well cared for. Every day they would check in and send us photos of our cats. Some of the best pictures we have of our cats come from Jen and Rachel. I would highly recommended prospectbark for anyone who needs a pet sitter. read more

I originally found ProspectBArk through my brother. I was less nervous to try them out because my bother still continues to use their services and we treat our dogs like they are children. lol. I figured if he liked their service, I knew I would. I have used ProspectBark for a whole year now and they have been nothing but amazing. I love how i can make a last minute request and Dan is always available. My dog walker is Dan. He is so good with my dogs. My dogs are very shy with men and I originally wanted a female dog walker. But when Dan first met my pups he we was amazing with them, he took it slow and they fell in love with him. I love how Dan always takes a picture of my 2 dogs when he takes them out. It gives me peace that my children are be loved. lol read more

ProspectBark has been amazing!! We have been using their services for 6 months for our 2 year old golden retriever. Ben is amazing with our pup on his afternoon walks and sends pictures and updates every time! Diana stayed in our apartment when we left town for a couple of days and sent pictures, gave us multiple updates a day and was so nice and reassuring.The entire team is reliable and so accommodating!! I couldn't recommended this company enough! read more

We have been using ProspectBark's services regularly for over six months. Our regular walker, Alex, is absolutely amazing -- communicative, responsible, and really great with our weirdo greyhound, and set up a great buddy walk that our dog really looks forward to (she always tries to go in her buddy's building when we walk by!!!). Their systems are really easy to use once you get the hang of it, from scheduling regular appointments to one-offs, overnights in our apartment, etc. They have even accommodated a few emergency last-minute requests. Even when it's not our usual walker (very rare) the service is always professional and reliable. AND the pricing is really reasonable -- not cheap but fair. Can't recommend ProspectBark highly enough!! read more

ProspectBArk! saved me and my cats, Mila and Bodhi! I was going out of town for a wedding and the person I'd arranged to cat/house sit informed me a few days in that she couldn't do it anymore. I was far away and my cats were abandoned. I called up ProspectBark and they immediately went to my place to check on the cats. They took amazing care of them for the duration of my trip. Everyday I'd get photos and videos from Ana who managed to have immediate rapport with this shy pair. She'd send videos of them playing and eating treats along with daily shots of clean litter, full water fountain, wet food and dry food. And all of this for a very reasonable price. I won't hesitate to call them again. Thank you ProspectBArk! read more

ProspectBArk is great! Our catsitter Mindy is awesome--she always sends us plenty of photos of our little guys so that we know they're doing OK, and also gives them plenty of food and treats and playtime to lift their spirits while we're gone. We never have a worry when we know Mindy is looking after our cats, and our entire experience with ProspectBArk has been great. A++! read more

I've relied on friends and roommates to watch my cat Huxley when I was away in the past, but this holiday season I felt it was time to finally get a pet sitter so I would have comfort of mind when away. Through Yelp I found Prospect Bark, a wonderful local service. Becoming a new client was easy: you fill out the online form and then wait to hear back. The holidays are busy/popular times, so best to book early! Once my dates were set, I was introduced to my sitters via email and then we set up a time for them to come by apartment to meet my cat friend and see his routine. The two sitters arrived on time and asked lots of questions, and were so sweet to my kitty, I felt at ease right away! My favorite part of the pet sitting service is that they will text you pictures and videos of your feline (and I would guess canine) friends, so you know a visit took place and can see what they are up to. The visits took place anytime between 10am and 6pm, but you can schedule certain times if needed. Huxley was well loved and well fed while I was away, and I was able to relax and not stress about him being alone! I also found Prospect Bark to be super affordable, with a 30 minute visit (with no set time and no medicine administration) to be $18. I'm excited to have a pet sitter for future vacations! read more

Experiencing serious capacity issues for the last several months. Communications are stressful. Can no longer recommend.

I've been a ProspectBArk customer for 3 years now and they have consistently been so great, professional, reliable and friendly throughout this entire time. I am so happy with my walker, Dan, he is super caring, responsive and responsible. My dog loves going on his walks and gets so excited to see him every day. I have had in-home boarding services through them (with Dan as well) and again, super professional and reliable. No complaints at all. I would highly recommend ProspectBark to anyone! read more

I don't tend to leave reviews, but I just adore everything about Prospect Bark. They have taken care of my kitties for many years now. I often have to travel at very short notice and they have the most wonderful and attentive customer service. They're reliable and sweet, and I love getting photo updates from my sitter Lori. Never change! read more

My bunnies love prospect bark! The web portal is so convenient and clear, and the team group chat is the perfect method of communication. Bunnies are very delicate and fragile animals but I trust prospect bark. Francesca is incredibly thorough and does an amazing job every time! My husband jokes we should hire her even when we are home because she does such a great job. You can tell all of the staff truly care about animals. I always recommend prospect bark to my friends. I look forward to receiving daily updates while I'm on vacation. I truly could not be more satisfied and am so grateful such a service exists. The team really goes above and beyond. Thank you Francesca, Jen, and Chunsoon! read more

We've tried several dog daycares and Prospect Bark is a truly special place. Our dog Sunny loves going there. Not only do they have a gorgeous space for the dogs to play (indoor AND outdoor), the staff is fantastic, attentive, and so communicative. Each client has a dedicated WhatsApp chat and we never have to ask for photos and video of Sunny because the staff always sends them throughout the day. Our dog is our baby and there is no other daycare we trust her with the way we do with Prospect Bark. read more

We are pretty choosy about who we allow to care for our dogs. Prospect Bark has been amazing and reliable! Jen in Bay Ridge is fantastic with our pups. She has walked them for many months, sat with them overnight and trained them. She is also really good with our cat and our at can rather rude sometimes. Chun Soon is responsive to any questions or concerns. We reached out about a particular charge and the matter was addressed immediately without issue. We completely trust ProspectBArk! with our pups and absolutely recommend the service to others. read more

Thrilled we found ProspectBark and SPECIFICALLY Francesca who is such a hero! Our dog adores her AND she's been 1000% reliable during our erratic pandemic schedules. From the moment of meeting her, it was obvious she's so professional, it's such a reassurance when you hand over keys and your loved one! We've been customers for a few months now and only feel more confident each week and very grateful! read more

I don't normally leave reviews, but Prospect Bark has left me with no other options. Their billing system was wildly disorganized and their staff was, and is, incredibly rude. After sorting through a billing issue in 2015 related to being shorted on the time that my dogs were walked, they offered me a discount to pay in cash. I did so. Today - 5 years later! - they emailed me to say that they have no record of my cash payment and will be sending me to collections. Buyer Beware! If I could leave negative stars, I would. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. read more

I moved from Tucson, AZ to Brooklyn, NY in August. In AZ I used to go to the dog park daily and I also had a backyard. I didn't realize how poorly leash trained my dogs were until I moved to Brooklyn. When I first moved here my work schedule was really crazy and it didn't take me long to realize that my dogs needed more daily exercise than I was capable of giving. I read a bunch of different reviews and called Chunsoon on a Saturday. That Monday evening, Zachary and Lucy came over to meet Piper and Grayson. In the short 30 minutes that they were meeting my dogs, I think my dogs did every embarrassing misbehavior possible. I was sure that we would "fail" the interview....but I was more than over-joyed when Lucy started the next day! I love the daily update with pictures via text. I was shocked to find out that Lucy towel dries then after walks in the rain...she even brings her own towel. She showers them with attention, lots of dog kisses, and belly rubs. The best and biggest change that I have noticed since Lucy started walking them is their improved behavior when I am walking them. They are still a little crazy but definitely not nearly as nuts as they used to be. We love ProspectBArk and Piper and Grayson really LOVE Lucy! Thank you guys for giving me peace of mind when I am at work. read more

ProspectBArk! - Piper and Grayson ready for a walk with Lucy...wahoo! - Dog Walkers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

When my partner and I first decided to send our dog to daycare after moving to the neighborhood, we were worried about finding the perfect fit. ProspectBark has exceeded our expectations in every way...from the amazing staff that cares for our pup like their own, to the flexible and accommodating scheduling, we couldn't be happier! We love seeing all the pictures from the staff showing our girl having a great time playing with friends, going for walks and getting showered with belly rubs. I would definitely recommend this business to anyone looking for place that will treat their pet like part of their own family. read more

I love Prospect Bark and Honey! I am extremely protective over my kitties, Cheese and Ella and especially my little four pound chihuahua, Alvin. I usually work from home, so my pets are used to virtually constant care and attention. I used to be so nervous when I had to leave home for extended periods of time because I didn't trust anyone to take care of them like I do. Thanks to Honey, I don't have to feel anxious when I go out of town. You can tell that Honey genuinely loves animals and even sends little updates about your little schmoos. I trust that she will be at my place when she says she will and that she will spend time with my animals and make sure they are safe, cleaned up after and walked. I totally recommend her and and Prospect Bark. The 5 star reviews are well deserved! read more

The most reliable and easiest group of folks I have ever dealt with. Wife and I used them for cat sitting and dog sitting when we went away for vacation. 2 years later and they still impress us by going above and beyond. While we were on our honeymoon in Paris we realized we left a Lilly in the apartment after the wedding. Our amazing sitter Zach quickly went to our apartment and threw them out after we contacted him what was at 11:30pm his time. He kept a close eye on the cats and per our request he and the owner of Prospect Bark took the cats to a vet and sent us videos and updates. Prospect Bark is an amazing company made up of people who truly love animals and what they do. Best animal care in Brooklyn! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Prospect Bark. They're the first and only dog walking company I've ever used, and I'm pretty sure if I lived in the area again (and had the money for a regular dog walker) I would go right back to them. They first do a little orientation at your house, where one of the owners (in this case it was Matt) came with my dog walker (Liam) to meet my dog Matlock, get the rundown on the little oddities of my apartment, and get two copies of my keys (one is for the dog walker, and one is a backup for the owners, in case for any reason the dog walker can't make it). They even brought a toy for Matlock! I big green crescent moon, which is his favorite toy to this day. After each walk, I got a text saying what kind of "business" Matlock did, along with a picture. The pictures were all so great, I even gave them their own instagram (instagram.com/matlockonthecase). Liam has quite the eye! When I ended up moving on short notice, they were super understanding and even pro-rated me that month to accommodate. They are quickly expanding though, so if you're in Manhattan, there's still a good chance they have a dog walker for you! I love these guys and highly recommend them. P.S. When a friend of mine lost her dog (which was eventually found), I told Matt and he put the flyer up on their Facebook page. Thanks Matt! read more

Tina of Prospect BArk has a lot of fans here; I am just one of many. While we were in Paris, our cats knocked over a shelf, covering the kitchen floor in broken glass and food. Tina not only let us know, but cleaned it up and made sure the cats were ok. When we tried to pay Tina extra for her time, she said no. She is amazing - not only because she allowed me to come home to a clean kitchen, but because my spazzy kitties adore her. Thanks Prospect BArk! Thanks Superstar Tina! read more

The folks at Prospect Bark are great and so organized. My walker Tina is wonderful. I know my pup, Pig is in good hands with her. Here's why: She sends updates and photos after every walk, and is super responsive to my crazy dog-mom texts. She's so thoughtful. When Pig had a minor foot injury, Tina walked her solo and spent extra time keeping her company inside since she wasn't supposed to walk around in the snow for too long. She's never been late/forgotten to show up/lost my keys/lost my dog/etc. Only good things! She is a great photographer! The daily photos from their walks are always hilarious and brighten my afternoon. Pig absolutely adores her. read more

Prospect Bark has been doing cat sitting for me for a couple years. My cat is, frankly, kind of a jerk. Somehow, I get texts from the sitters every time they visit. He's either covered in a string, eating a treat (approved by me) out of their hands, or up and about instead of hiding on the bed, hissing. A+ right there. Then, we adopted a rescue dog and needed to enlist their services for afternoon weekday walks. They always text a picture and report on the business done on the walk. I have a crazy schedule and am a totally flakey canceler or last min booker of walks and they are always sweet and kind about it. If my regular walker can't make it, they always find someone else - and always ask if I want to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure my dog is cool with the new person that'll be coming to the house. They are always very quick to respond to anything you need. I love that they are able to do anything by email and text as well as calling me - I hate being on the phone. Super happy! read more

ProspectBArk! - Our walker understands that sometimes Digby just has to take his squeaky hippo on his walks too. They're just so sweet :) - Dog Walkers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

These folks rock! I've been using Prospect Bark for several years for my cat (The Cutest Cat In The World, obviously). They take such good care of her when I'm away, and even text me updates of how she's doing. I love coming home to find notes from the sitter of how she did while I was gone (which is to say, really well, because they took such good care of her). I recently moved from Brooklyn back to Manhattan, and Chun-Soon has found a sitter for me here, so I'm thrilled that TCCITW will be in good hands the next time I'm out of town. read more

I have been using PB for the past two years, and the PB team have literally been lifesavers for myself and my dog. You can count on a quick response for any email inquiry (seemingly round-the-clock), and Chun-Soon even called me from her Hawaiian vacation to make sure a gift certificate purchase had gone smoothly. Dan has been our consistent dog-walker, and takes great care of my dog. ProspectBArk! will send photos from every dog walk, so I can see firsthand that my dog is in good hands and having a blast. I highly recommend PB for their care, consistency, professionalism and loving care of my pet! read more

The most reliable and best service I've ever used for my dog. I've worked with a number of their dog walkers and sitters over the years and they are all amazing. They treat my dog like she's their own and I never doubt that she's in amazing hands. read more
