Ninon is a kind. lovely woman who we were lucky to have sit our dog and care for our home. Our home was very well cared for and our dog was very content. He was actively looking for Ninon after we had settled in. It is a great feeling coming home after a trip to see your pet and home have been so well cared for. Ninon left us the easy fixings for a salad which we really appreciated. We highly recommend Ninon, you will have a wonderful caregiver for your home and pet.
Sharboni and Olivier were absolutely outstanding. They were very responsive to messages, and very flexible and accommodating around timings for collecting keys / doing the handover. They left our home lovely and tidy, with clean sheets when I returned, which was greatly appreciated. Best of all, they took absolutely fantastic care of my cat! Loki is normally suspicious of men, but Olivier managed to charm him so much that he was sleeping on his lap within a few days! There were daily photos and updates, and they clearly put a lot of effort into keeping my energetic and mischievous cat entertained. I came home to a clean home and a happy, well-cared for cat - thank you so much!

My cats fell in love with Rebecca from the first moment she walked into our apartment. All three of kitties delighted in her playing and feeding them. She sent us morning and evening photos so punctually I set my clock by the text alert. She was amazing. The kitties had such a rapport with her and we had no concerns or guilt while on vacation.! She is a gifted kitty whisper.
I highly recommend Rebecca. She took excellent care of my two cats for over a week and they clearly looked forward to her visits. In addition, Rebecca sent daily updates, pictures and videos. She was even kind enough to take in my mail! I knew my cats were in excellent hands, which allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation.
Rebecca is a very responsible cat sitter. We’ve had her come feed our cat while we’re away during several trips we’ve taken recently. She comes in person a week before we leave to confirm when we want her to come, to get keys to our apartment, and to review any special needs. She’s great at communicating with us via text messages. Each time she visits she sends us a detailed summary of how our cat is doing, and includes photos and videos of our cat. We appreciate how she doesn’t just feed our cat, she plays with them, and even cleans their litter box! She makes us feel a lot better about leaving our cat alone when we’re travelling. Also Rebecca’s prices are very reasonable.
Rebecca took amazing care of our rabbits! She sent updates with pictures each visit, and really put our minds at ease on our trip. We have already booked her again! Highly recommend!
We’ve lived in the neighborhood for a while and struggled to find a reliable pet sitter until meeting Rebecca, who has done a fantastic job caring for my dog Penny. She is trustworthy and an excellent communicator who clearly loves animals. I appreciate how she sends periodic photos when we’re away so we always know when Penny is getting walked and fed. We’re so glad we met Rebecca, she’s saved us this summer and I highly recommend her!
Rebecca is great! I’ve booked her twice now to catsit and it’s been a positive experience each time. My cat is a really anxious guy and usually hides when there’s strangers around but he warmed up to Rebecca and actually hung out when she cat sat. A miracle in my book! Rebecca also gives great updates each day she cat sits along with photos/video. Very happy I found Rebecca’s pet sitting services :)
I cannot recommend Rebecca and her pet sitting services enough! I recently left my cat, Mulan, in her care for two weeks while I was on vacation and she did the most amazing job. Everyday she was timely for the drop-in visits and made sure I got detailed updates, photos and videos of Mulan. I felt super at ease knowing my furry friend was well taken care of and in great hands. She played with Mulan and brought toys to make sure she was actively engaged which I greatly appreciated. I 10/10 recommend Rebecca and her services and will certainly continue to use her moving forward!! Super commutative, reliable, friendly and will ensure your pet is given the best care in your absence. Don’t hesitate to use her!
Rebecca was very responsible, caring and easy to work with. She sent a pic or video every day I was away, and it was clear Smokey took to her easily. I would definitely hire her again.
Rebecca's cat-sitting service is amazing! She came once or twice a day, depending on the situation, to take care of my furry friend, and it was always excellent service. I highly recommend calling Rebecca when you are leaving for a trip because your cat will be in good hands. Besides, she always sends pictures and videos, which provide an additional level of security. With her, you don’t have to worry about your cat's comfort while you are away.
Rebecca took such amazing care of my handsome Jaques! I would definitely leave him in her care again. He’s usually a shy boy but he hopped right onto her lap. I’ve never seen him so happy to be babysat will be using for all my cat sitting needs.
I’ve been taking my dog oso for a couple of months now and he is so excited to go to daycare! He loves his time there and the instructors! Oso is a very active and happy dog while at daycare and I’m very happy I found this place! The instructors are constantly posting pictures of the day on instagram so I can see how oso is doing throughout the day. During pick up they give me some updates. I Recommend to anyone who’s looking for a doggy daycare for their Fur baby!
Our baby Cinnamon has been going to Bklyn Unleashed since June. She is 8 months old. She loves going to Doggie Daycare as we call it! The staff has been fantastic!! Have recommended it to few people (in fact 1 puppy has been going). Cinnamon comes home tired and happy! Best thing ever!!!!
Brooklyn unleashed is literally my dog’s second home! NOTHING exists when I park next to it in the morning to take him in. He runs to the door like there’s no tomorrow!! It makes me super happy to know that he’s so looking forward to being there, that he’s well taken care of when he’s not home and the love he shares for the staff and the dogs! Definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a piece of mind knowing that their fur baby is well taken care of and loved!
My dog Avery went for a temperament test and passed with flying colors. He spent half a day at the doggie daycare and enjoyed himself. Avery is shy but very friendly. He's a mix breed of Cattle and Pit bull so his size and features might look menacing but he's a sweetheart. I plan on bringing him back when I have errands in the city.
Great staff and facility! Will always recommend anyone looking to enroll their dog in daycare to Brooklyn Unleashed!
I started using Brooklyn Unleashed this school year for my 6 year old German Shepherd-Husky mix, Ripley. We always arrive at near opening time (7AM) and I pick him up 8-9 hours later. He is SOOOO excited to arrive and when I pick him up, I know he's had a long day of fun and play - he literally falls asleep on the car ride home. Great place and great for teachers since they open at 7AM! I drive 20 minutes out of my way each school day to take Ripley here and pick him up because I know he is having fun with all the doggies and doggie caregivers! We go daily, Monday-Friday but even if you just need a day or two, or to let your dog have some socialization time, Brooklyn Unleashed is five-star! Highly recommended!
Very happy with this place! The owner and staff are super nice and accommodating. Our dog loves spending time at BKUnleashed and is very well taken care of when there. She boarded for a week a few months ago, which went super smooth. We were able to see her chilling or playing with other dogs on Instagram feed. Definitely happy to have these guys in the neighborhood!
This is amazing place for our little baby. We travel a lot, but sometimes to have our baby dog is complicated. So we found this Day Care and I must say that our Baby Loved it So Much from the first day! So much care and love I never see Before. Very friendly Owner and lovely staff. Ones we forgot owe food and you know what - owner bought special food for our friend and even didn’t charge us. We are happy to have such a nice care of our boy in time when we are our of city.
Staff is nice and helpful, price is reasonable. My babies are very happy staying at here. You could communicate with staff via email or phone. They even post update on IG.
Our baby is always so happy and well taken care of here! The workers are great at communicating with us if there's any concern (she had a limp that I'd asked then to look out for and they were very watchful of her!) Instagram updates daily are super helpful and they're worth every penny!
I highly recommend Erica's Dog Sitting services. She took care of my two boy on several occasions and was great with them. Erica is very knowledgeable about dogs and cares for them as if they were her own. I love the fact that even before she agreed to take them in, there's a vetting session in which she gets to see first hand how your dog will act in her environment and you get to see her in action and ask questions too. My two boy absolutely love her and I won't go anywhere else. Her rates are very reasonable and for my long stays, she even includes a wash... What else could you ask for ❤️
Erica has been for us like a second mom to our Lara. She and her husband have taken care of our baby for the last two years, each time we leave town. Lara goes happily and cheerfully to he home and when we pick her up she has a “hard” time to choose to stay or go with us. We use Erica also for day sitting every so often to have Lara socialize with other dogs and she always goes and returns happy. We have no words to thank Erica for taking such a good care of Lara.
We left our boy Boomer with Erica for a week, and it was unbelievable. Boomer had such a great time, with lots of space to place and hangout. He was taken great care of by Erica. I would highly recommend anyone needing a dog sitter to reach out to Erica! We will certainly be bringing Bomer back next time we go away.
Traveling was always a stressful experience for me because I worried about my dogs constantly. Since I met Erica that’s no longer the case. I left my anxious 10 year old Pittie in her care and it was a wonderful experience. Sasha was able to socialize with other dogs and looked completely at home. Erica has a large house with a backyard and is steps from the beach. My dog had an amazing experience. I would never leave her anywhere else. Thank you Erica!
Erica is fantastic with her pups and very conscientious. We recently moved to the area and were nervous to find someone we felt comfortable with for our pup. He’s been to her house twice now and loves it. She has a great green yard for the dogs to play. She also has many comfortable areas in her home for the dogs to rest. She sends many photos and communicated consistently while we were away. I highly recommend her!
Erica was amazing to our pup! It’s hard to find someone you trust & I wouldn’t recommend anyone else, Erica is consistent & caring as well as making me feel comfortable by sending tons of photos and videos of my pup She is home now and exhausted I’m sure she had the best time ! Thank you!
Erica is a phenomenal dog sitter, with an extremely professional and deeply knowledgeable approach. I never have a single doubt about my dogs' safety or her ability to handle any situation that may occur. I've been using her for years, started off with my first dog and then added a second. I left them for three weeks with her during my wedding and honeymoon and the peace of mind I had knowing they were not only safe but having an absolute blast was invaluable. She sends tons of pictures and videos of them enjoying her beautiful property too. :) Very reasonably priced and easy scheduling process. I can't recommend her enough!
Erica is the best! My little guy shakes his entire body when we pull in! He has the best time there. The dogs that she watches are such friendly dogs. I highly recommend Erica for all your dog sitting needs! You will not be disappointed! The dogs can play inside or in the fenced in yard. Robin
Erika took care of dog for many years. After interviewing other people Erika stood out to be the best dog sitter. Her prices are fair, she’s always available and truly understands dogs. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog but her. My dog is my “dog child” and I know that leaving her with Erika she will be well taken care of.
The mere mention of Erica’s name gets our dog, Ellie excited. The same happens when we get our suitcase out to pack. Why? Because our dog LOVES going to Erica’s and knows she’ll have fun socializing with the other dogs and running around her LARGE back yard. Erica sends us photos and videos throughout the day and is a great communicator and flexible when our plans unexpectedly change. Thank you, Erica!
I take my little princess Mia for grooming regularly to woof lovers. Mary and Andrea are amazing. She is very restless when having her hair cut and they treat her with so much love and patience. Affordable price too!
From the moment I spoke to mary she was delightful and polite. My family and I had a last minute trip and mary was able to accommodate us with same day. My puppy lou is quite the handful and she had only good words about him. Also gave us updates and lots of pictures of him. He was very happy and well taken care of. We will most definitely be using woof lovers again.
They are the best. I couldn't be happier. It is very hard to find dog walking services and doggy day care in our district. I am so happy to have found them. My dog is thrilled too!!!
My dog had the best time here!! They sent me pictures which I was very appreciate of. 😊 Very nice people, you can tell they truly love the dogs. 💜💜💜 …
Really good place
Where do I begin with Prospect Bark and how incredibly amazing they are. Staff: the owner of Prospect Bark and her team are beyond the best. They love all of the dogs as if they were their own. They provide individual time, attention and love to every dog. They are so attentive from managing diets and allergies and any medicine to play time, etc. they send us videos and photos all day that are just the best. Environment: I would like to stay for a day at Prospect Bark it is so calming and relaxing. They have high ceilings, calming music, clean - very clear they are constantly cleaning because it smells lovely - and they have beds and toys for all dog sizes - including heated blankets in their front window during the winter and a big play space and pools in their yard. Boarding: our dog loves boarding at Prospect Bark. Their lower level is a combo of Murphy beds for free sleeping dogs and crates for dogs who need crate sleeping. They have staff who sat over with the dogs which is just the best. Care: everything from little personal hand-drawn pics of the dogs on the walls to “pupsicles” in the summer to Thanksgiving dinner and a holiday photo shoot, Prospect Bark is beyond like family to us and our dog. We love them and everything they do and have recommended them to many. They are exceptional! Beyond highly recommend!!
Prospect Bark is awesome!! If you love your dog you won’t board them anywhere else! I have searched many dog boarding places in Park Slope, and Prospect Bark is the absolute best by far! Chun-Soon and her daughter, Tina, Sheila and the whole staff! Outstanding! Where else does you dog get read bed time stories!! They always take the absolute best care of my dog when she is there. Can not recommend them enough!! 💕💕💕
Best doggie daycare, boarding, sitting and walking in Brooklyn! My wife and I have been using ProspectBArk! since our dog (now 8 years) was 3 months old. We've done daily walking (for several years before covid), in-home sitting, daycare while we moved, and most recently an 8-day staycation at their daycare/boarding facility while we were in Japan. They have never let us down and always do an amazing job – really setting our minds at ease when we have to be away from our sweet doggie. They provide plenty of photo updates, respond quickly, and the facility is absolutely top notch. Clean, comfortable, and run by people who truly love animals.
Wish I could give ProspectBark more than 5 stars! They are absolutely the best! Our dog Lola absolutely loves coming here for daycare and overnights. You can tell how much the staff truly cares about all of the dogs that come here. We get the cutest photos and videos throughout the day (they send so many throughout the day, and you can tell how much fun all of the dogs are having) so we never have to wonder how she is doing & they always make us smile. They set up pools for the dogs during the Summer, organize different activities, and make healthy treats for the dogs too. The space is also extremely clean! This is truly such an incredible place and we always trust them to watch our dog Lola - she really has a BLAST here! I can't recommend ProspectBark enough!
The team at ProsepctBARK is one of the most conscientious and caring group of animal care specialists we have ever encountered. From the early days of the business when they walked our bulldog puppy to the their sensitive and meticulous care for her late in life - this team loves animals and makes it their mission to provide amazing services. We now have two new puppies and two cats. ProspectBARK provide excellent in home and day care services for all of our animals. They are like family to us and our animals and always exhibit professional excellence. Creative (draw up dog days!) unique (summertime frozen treats) and deeply kind - our animals are in the very best hands with this wonderful team!
My dog and I LOVE ProspectBArk. I have never trusted a place more with my fur baby. I know she is in good hands, getting taken care of and having fun! The staff is super friendly and communicative. I love that I get picture and video updates throughout the day. And they even make homemade snacks for the pups. Can’t recommend this place enough!!
I cannot say enough good things about prospect bark. We send our dog to day care and board her, and she is treated with so much love and care. ProspectBark has also helped her become socialized well with dogs, and they’ve been so collaborative. We are so grateful to have found prospect bark.
ProspectBark is an incredible dog daycare. The staff is caring and competent. My wife and I leave our little baby Granger in their hands and know he’ll be loved and taken care of. I could not highly rec this business more. The staff is really wonderful. One specific highlight is the staff’s constant communication via photos and video which helps my wife and I feel even more comfortable when we are away knowing our precious baby is in living hands.
ProspectBArk goes above and beyond for pets and their humans! They have been kitty sitting for us for years when we go on vacation, and we have only ever had positive experiences. Sitters are always professional, communicative, and provide lots of updates and pictures. Our cat, Frasier, was recently diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, so we were nervous about leaving him alone when we had to go out of town. When we entered new care instructions into the portal, the owner was kind enough to call and collaborate on a special care plan for him. She even delivered a cat water fountain to our home to make sure Frasier didn't get dehydrated! We were so touched by the kindness and our sitter, Doug, was clearly mindful of our anxiety and made sure to give us the best updates. We feel really lucky to have the staff at ProspectBArk in Frasier's corner (and ours!).
I have used ProspectBArk's cat sitting service since 2016 whenever we go away on vacation or business trips and I've had nothing but excellent experiences! The sitters are trustworthy, kind, professional, and passionate about caring for my two cats, Poppy and Bandit. And, on top of this great care, we also get lots of cute photos and videos of the cats while we're on vacation. In particular, I want to shout out Jennifer Bernstein, our sitter of several years, for her incredible and attentive care. Our cats love her!
Fang is so wonderful. Our dog loved her time with Fang during the holidays. Fang is thoughtful and caring. She sends great updates and photos along the way. I would recommend Fang for anyone looking for a sitter...she is the best!
Fang is an amazing, kind, and patient dog lover. She has watched my dog a couple of times now and Fang has made me feel at ease each time. Fang took amazing care of my pup for about 3 weeks. She sent me daily photos and frequent updates on how Coffee was doing. I was able to fully enjoy my trip without worrying about my pup. It was also the longest time I’ve been away from her and I truly appreciate Fang for taking care of her so well. I highly highly recommend Fang!
We enjoyed a worry-free 12-day getaway while our Bruce the Chihuahua did the same — at Fang’s! This was our third time boarding with Fang, and as always, she took exceptionally good care of Bruce, giving him both the special attention, group gatherings, and the quiet downtime he sometimes needs. Fang is an exceptional, experienced, and caring sitter: Bruce trusts her and adores her, and we couldn’t be happier! Love the daily pics and reports too.
Fang is truly an angel. We’ve enjoyed countless vacations and getaways, knowing that our lil pomeranian is safe and happy as can be at Fang’s! She provides adorable photo updates every day and helps us keep our dog on her routine. Truly no idea what we’d do without Fang.
Fang is exceptional. She has been walking and boarding our dog for a few years now and we are always so happy to see our fur baby so well taken care of and by such an awesome human. Fang is thorough, attentive, caring, and also a funny and chill person to chat with - always a plus. We are so lucky we found Fang!
Fang took care of my dog Noah for about two days. She was wonderful. She was very quick to respond and sent frequent updates about Noah with high-quality pictures and videos. I always felt that Noah was very well taken care of. I'd highly recommend Fang and plan on contacting her again in the future!
Fang is simply the best. She is warm, kind, and a joy to work with. It is so comforting to know that someone as conscientious and dog-loving as Fang is taking care of our furbaby. Our dog, Nellie, loves her and so do we. I give Fang my strongest recommendation!!
Fang is literally the best dog sitter in the world. She’s the dog sitter for people who are anxious about their dogs and need lots of pictures and communication. Also just a lovely person!
I’m so lucky I found Fang, and I always feel like my pup Henri is well taken care of with her level of care and expertise (leash reactivity, ear infections, etc..). My dog always comes back happy and exhausted after his stays with her. Recommend, x1000
Highly highly recommended! She was professional every step of our dog's stay. This was our 4th time with her and we are really looking forward to keep working with her in the future.
