Doggie-Do & Playtime Too!

My westie, Molly, and I love it here. Molly comes for day care at least 2 times a week and practically pulls my arm out of the socket when we go up the block. Howie and Lou are very knowledgeable and it is clear that they care about their customers. I like that there are a limited number of dogs so they all get attention. We couldn’t be happier that we found this place!

I am crazy when it comes to my dog. So I am happy to give this great review. My observations are that the dogs are very well treated here and the owners are genuinely interested in ensuring the dog’s safety and happiness. If you are looking for peace of mind when you leave your dog for the day or to get groomed, I would highly recommend this place.

Howie and Lou are great as well as the rest of the staff! I started using them when my dog was a puppy… its a perfect place to let all her puppy juice out and socialize her at the same time.
I also use their grooming service… and although a bit pricey… when I used another less expensive place in the neighborhood… her cut wasnt as nice at all. I continue to use all their services… now a year later.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this place!!! I brought my golden-​doodle in after having her for only 2 weeks she was very matted from the puppy store. This place said they could help without shaving her down and it took them all day but she looks AMAZING! Such nice people, great atmosphere, treated my dog so great! I will never go anywhere else! So worth every penny! I am a very happy customer :)

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE! My husband and I have been bringing our pooch here for months and we can’t say enough good things. Lou and his wife and Howie make you feel comfortable right away. They treat your dog like family and for an over protecting pet owner – this is key! The grooming is great and quick and they let your dog play in daycare while you wait.
I’ve read through the reviews and am shocked at the negative comments. I’ve never had a single scratch on my dog. He loves going there and runs there when we are on the block!

I started coming here when I moved to the neighborhood and haven’t even thought to try anyplace else. They do a fantastic job with Zev and he always comes out happy and looking very handsome.
There’s a whole playroom that they invite the dogs to spend time in while they wait to be groomed, which is their doggie daycare space. I definitely recommend bringing your dog here. They’ll treat him like their own.

I have been taking my pug here for the past year and he LOVES it. The staff who take care of the dogs are caring and really love the dogs. They pay attention to what is going on in the room. The owners are also extremely nice and create a warm environment for the owners and their dogs. There is an outdoor play area in the back which is awesome during nice weather. My pug knows exactly where the door is and drags me down the street to get there! I cannot recommend Doggie Do enough. Your dog will be in great hands!

I can’t recommend Marina enough. She loves grooming and dogs more than anything and it’s clear they feel the same about her! She’s a wizard with clippers — any pup in her hands looks just amazing when she’s through! Our Spaniel is always perfect when we pick him up from Marina. Highly recommended!

A wonderful place to take your pooch! They are a marvelous place for all things Dog!!! Everyone who works there really respect and love dogs. An absolute must for me. And best of all is groomer Marina who is a wizard with a cut and grooming! My dog adores her and feels very comfy when he arrives and Marina takes him for his pampering! Feel absolutely at peace when taking your beloved pet there!!! I cannot give this place and Marina enough stars!!!

We absolutely love doggie-​do. This was our first time using a doggie daycare… and our dog loved it instantly! Amazing staff, great grooming, and the owners really care. They really treated our dog like he was their own. The only reason we are sad to be moving out of the neighborhood is because we’ll miss their amazing service. I will be recommending them to everyone we know.

After you pick up your dog or puppy, please try this at home: Lift your arm up as if you are about to strike and watch your dog’s reaction. If your dog reacts to your lifted arm by cowering and/​or flinching, that means your dog was abused.
I will not be taking my dog back to Doggie-​Do to be groomed.
I understand that some dogs are uncooperative and difficult to groom. If that is the case, they should have given up and called me to pick up my dog. Instead, I picked up my dog after 3 hours. I brought my dog home and noticed that my dog was behaving unusually. My dog appeared depressed and traumatized. After a few hours had passed since bringing her home from Doggie-​Do, I tried the lifted-​arm test and my dog cowered away.
Please be aware that the groomer at Doggie-​Do may abuse your dog.
NEVER AGAIN

Been taking my Cavalier here for the past few months. I went in because a neighbor had suggested their grooming services. Not only was I thrilled with the grooming (they have a solid value Basic Bath option) but I also discovered their excellent day care service.
The one thing that really stands out about their daycare is that they keep dedicated staff members inside the play areas who are interacting with them at all times it’s also nice that they have a little outdoor courtyard in the back so when the weather is nice the dogs get to roam outside. My dog and I sometimes bump into their staffers on the neighborhood streets and he attacks them with affection.
The management is fantastic as well. On one occasion, my wife and I ran late and they had our dog upfront hanging out with them 15 minutes after closing time. Very nice and accommodating.
They have a great intro pack too which is how I got hooked.

Doggie-​Do has just become one of my favorite places in the UES. Not only do they go above and beyond in caring for your pet, but they also make the owners feel like family. The customer service far exceeds any of the other businesses that I have tried for my puppy CoCo. I know that whether I have a question in regards to training my dog, feeding her the proper food, or general health questions that I can put full trust in the owners and staff of this establishment. They are extremely knowledgeable and treat every pet as their own.
My Shih Tzu is like a child to me, and Doggie-​Do allows me to rest assured knowing that she is being cared for in the best manner. I would recommend this business over any other pet associated establishment over and over again. The store is well-​kept, clean, and fully stocked with all your pet essentials. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and (as mentioned before) feels like family every time I go in.
Doggie Do can expect a loyal customer for years to come. Their grooming is exceptional, and their staff is unparalleled.

I recently participated with my Yorkie girls in a fab dog fashion show event at Doggie-​Do & Playtime Too, an upscale dog boutique and much more. The owner, Howie Binder, is a really nice guy, and his staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The place itself is clean and so cute and has an indoor park, too, and an outdoor area which will be great in warmer weather. I look forward to attending more events at this lovely venue.

I was very happy with my experience here. What stood out to me the most was the staff, and how they truly connected and cared for my pup (she spent the day at the daycare.) My dog tends to get stressed when I leave her; however when I picked her up at doggie-​do, she was happy and I could tell she had a great experience. Very satisfied with that! The grooming was also a very pleasant experience. They cut exactly how I asked and my pup did not seem upset as she normally does after grooming. Loved the place, atmosphere, the staff — and so did my dog!

I don’t understand, why all the negative reviews? I just picked my 14 month old pup up from getting groomed there for the first time. The men who work there are sweet and accommodating and the groomer was knowledgable and nice! My pup tends to get matted and they got all her tangles out without shaving her down. She came home happy and silky smooth. They even told me to drop by for a free brush out from time to time since I live in the hood. Added point… She smells amazing!

I bring my dog in once a week for doggy day care and he just loves it! Everyone there is so nice and friendly. And the best review of all! My dog runs into the store and all but leaps into their arms. He is always so happy to be there. I also like that they have a big window where you can watch the dogs play, it’s very open so you don’t feel like your letting someone take your dog into a back room where you don’t know how they are treated. You can see how they are treated and I’m very comfortable having my dog there

I have taken my dog to many places for grooming and daycare and this places is the best!!! The owners are wonderful and my dog loves to go there. He will climb the stairs when they are closed and he waits for me to open the door. I boarded him for 10 days and he still wanted to go back to play. He has never been groomed so well with no problems or complaints. I take him there at least once a week for exercise and playtime.

NO, NO, NO, NO! I was so excited when this place opened a block over from my apartment. I immediately made appointments for both of my dogs (1 for grooming, the other to cut his nails). They put my dogs in daycare for the day (for free, which is was the 1 positive). When I picked them up EVERY SINGLE nail was cut so short it was bleeding and my dog’s stomach (who got groomed) was all scratched and red. I brought my dogs back to show them what they did and they said cutting their nails until they were bleeding was normal (ummmm, no) and that my dogs stomach got scratched during daycare. To make matters worse, while the guy at the desk was nice about the who situation (even though he never owned up to wrong doing), the little italian guy who walks around was INCREDIBLY rude. Don’t bring your dogs here, I won’t.
