These guys really care about dogs! We were so worried about leaving our pup for the first time because he's a rescue. We are certainly over-attached. What a relief after 7 days away from our beloved K-9 to find him so well cared for. Thank you Strutting Mutts!

Saying goodbye to our dog upon drop off - they have a great window for pups that like to people watch.

We love Strutting Mutts and highly recommend them! Their staff is kind, personable, and attentive to both owners and their pets. Paul, the owner, is especially communicative and lovely. They've been flexible through some flight delays that resulted in a later pick up time - which just saves additional stress when travels don't go as planned. The indoor play area is large with sections for all levels of play and dog sizes. They also get out a few times a day for neighborhood walks :) We've moved away from Williamsburg and still commute to bring P to see her pals at Strutting Mutts- she loves it that much.

My Tibetan Terrier mix had a fantastic haircut from Gabby! Body was neat and trimmed, paws were perfectly round, face was symmetrical and smooth. Highly recommended!

The text messages where I question her and she denied cutting him then stopped responding to my texts.

*THIS REVIEW IS FOR GABBY THE GROOMER* I am updating my review because after trying Gabbys services for the 3rd time I am 100% done and feel so sad for my dog because I trusted him in her hands. As stated in my previous review, my dog was red on his groin area but gabby assured me it was because he was allergic to the blade. My dog was groomed twice before Gabby and even though they did a horrible job with his haircut, he was never red in that area. The second time gabby groomed my dog she left him again with even more red spots all over his groin area and some of them even looked like my dog was zeeked. Again, i brought it up to her attention and she brushed it off to him being allergic to the blade and that she was going to have to just use the scissors. Fast forward to this Monday April 18th, 2022. Gabby let me know that she is grooming at her apartment because there are unsafe wires that the Owner of Strutting Mutts refuses to cover and she does not want the dogs to get electrocuted. I did not believe that a daycare for dogs would have unsafe wires so I called the business and confirmed that she was still affiliated with them just incase. I made an appointment for 04/19/22. Gabby picked my dog up around 12:30pm but did not call me until 6:30pm to ask me what cut I would like even though I sent her the picture. My dog was not ready until almost midnight! I now think she was stalling for my dogs wound to stop bleeding. Gabby does not charge the prices that are advertised. She said it's $10 more then charged me $40 extra ontop of that because she said my dog was matted. I've taken him to her 3xs in 5months. There's no way he was matted, yet she charged me $150! When I returned from work the next day (which happened to be his 1st bday), I noticed he was cut near his privates and had fluid coming out of it. I quickly sent her a picture and asked what happened to my dog. Of course she said it was his rash and that I already knew that happenes. She completely denied him being cut and never responded to the text messages where I questioned what happened to my dog during her care. I reached out to Paul (the owner) and he was apologetic and did not hesitate to give me a refund. However, I am not sure why he still affiliates himself with her if from what I've seen on the reviews, this has happened before. This is completely unacceptable! I've attached pictures and the text messages as my proof.

I got my pup groomed by Gabby yesterday! He's a shy rescue that we've had for a year and we were nervous to have him with a groomer but Gabby took care of him well! it took around an hour and a half for a deluxe treatment. gabby was very accommodating and kind about his nervousness and was super relaxed about dealing with a dog that isn't as used to humans! He came back smelling great, even his breath was nice! His fur was soft and smelled wonderful. I would give 5 stars but he was still shedding quite a bit afterward, I'm sure it's just a one time issue and I'll be sure to come again and update the review if the issue doesn't happen next time. grooming's a little pricey but great for being in the neighborhood of Williamsburg! Would recommend!

We had our dog groomed by Gabby and it was FANTASTIC!! We have a 70 pound labradoodle. When we dropped him off he had long hair that was matted in certain spots and he was badly in need of a bath. We have very specific (and probably unclear) instructions on how we wanted him to look and he came out looking just as requested and even better! He looks like he's going out on a date! He is also so happy and comfortable in his new look. Highly recommend.

This is a review for the new groomer, Gabby. This woman absolutely mutilated my dog. She took a razor and cut his whole underbelly, privates and butt included. Not to mention his trim is super irregular and there are tufts everywhere. When I texted her about it, instead of apologizing she said "put some baby powder on it." My dog is finally returning to his usual self almost a whole week after the groom. His cuts literally scabbed and are still there, he was so traumatized he did not play for four days. I went to a different pet store/groomer to buy an antibiotic ointment to make sure his cuts didn't get infected and they were AMAZED at how horribly Gabby cut and treated my dog. The owners of strutting mutts were receptive and very apologetic. They refunded me everything and even paid for his ointment. When they spoke to gabby they told me she realized she cut my dog and "forgot" to mention it which is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. They also told me they were eliminating gabby because of this experience. Given the 2 reviews (although positive) she has gotten this week, it's evident this was a lie. Although they took accountability for her poor job I do not like getting lied to and am leaving this review so that more dogs do not get cut and hurt. Take your animal somewhere else! This was by far the worst and most expensive groom we've ever gotten. Not worth the trauma.

About a year and a half ago my boyfriend Chris had just moved in with me with his two big dogs-a pit bull and a pit boxer mix. Chris got sick and I had to take him to the emergency room and I was in a panic since I knew I couldn't walk these two alone. I reached out to several dog walkers on Yelp and Paul is the one who answered immediately. I was frankly, a bit hysterical and he was so sweet and accommodating. When I met him he picked up the dogs so effortlessly and even took them to stay over. It was a huge help and relief. Since that time Paul and Cory have become our regular dog walkers and I cannot recommend them enough. These are not the easiest dogs. They are both over 70 lbs and can't be walked with other dogs. Cory takes amazing pictures of the dogs on each walk and gives wonderfully detailed reports. Our dogs love these guys. They're the best!

He took our little Guy to a pumpkin craving

A great crew! Paul watched our 5 month old puppy for an in-house stay and it was very short notice but they were very timely and sent so many photo updates! Will totally rebook. We also, took him to get a grooming with Gaby and she was so patient and took her time with our hyper puppy. Even gave him a little bow tie. Completely satisfied

Gabby gave our mini bernedoodle a very cute haircut! He came back smelling nice and clean. I'm happy he was able to keep some of his length, which can be hard with doodles because they get tangled. We'll be coming again!

Had a great experience here, our Sheepadoodle has a very high maintenance coat and they took the time to make sure it was perfect.

Happy with the service here. We have a 60 pound Sheepadoodle with a difficult coat and they took the time to groom him perfectly.

Happy Matilda after a Strutting Mutts walk!

Love these guys. As close to feeling like a friend or family member is walking Matilda (but with way more professionalism)! After a less than ideal experience with another dog walking company that shall go unnamed, can't express enough how much better I feel with this team. Their communication is prompt and honest and hilarious. Great folks who really love all their pooch charges - you can tell, and it makes all the difference. Tens tens tens across the board!

See all

He was absolutely amazing with my dog and never failed to treat Malia like a true queen. Her cut was always perfection and he would love when I text him photos. I called today to book a grooming appointment and the gentleman who answered said grooming services are suspended our groomer died. Cold callused and without empathy or compassion. Of course if I was absolutely shocked devastated and so hurt to hear this. Peter our beloved Peter has died suddenly and this is how we were told. When I shared that we as customers should have received an email as we all loved Peter the response was it's on Instagram have a nice day! Shame on Buddy's for this. Shame on you for now valuing the heart of your customers and the legacy of Peter. We will move on and find a new place to go but Peter is irreplaceable in our hearts. How this was handled tells me this is no longer a place for me and my family. RIP Peter. Update: See image after providing feedback on how I received the news I noted above which by the way was a note in beautiful message that said (how I found out was in poor taste) I then received this horrible message from the manager in my IG DMs.

Our Labradoodle (the one in the middle of the photo, smiling) came back calm and well cared for, which says a lot. Overall, a solid and reliable place for dog boarding or daycare in Brooklyn.

My older dog sleeps in the sun and relaxes all day while my younger guy runs laps inside (they even take him in a quiet room to nap when he's exhausted but still wants to play). They also have great events for the dogs like foam parties, getting them on citi field etc where you get to meet your pups friends and be part of a community!

We won't book any travel plans without booking Vanessa first. Vanessa and her staff at Happy Pups are reliable, caring, conscientious, and attentive to our pups' needs.
