Woofs 'n Whiskers

For nearly 30 years, Woofs 'n Whiskers has been a trusted pet care facility and a steady part of Brooklyn life, caring for generations of pet owners in areas such as Red Hook, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, DUMBO, and surrounding neighborhoods. Beginning in the 1990s as a small, family-run dog-walking service, it has evolved into a full-service pet retreat that prioritizes care and its connection to the community. In 2004, the original location was transformed into a welcoming space for pet boarding, daycare, and grooming. Since that change, it has remained dedicated to its founding principles of comfort, trust, and transparency. With a team that has years of experience, we continue to provide a safe and enriching environment where pets can thrive, while owners feel confident in the care provided. Days at the facility are designed to support the well-being of each pet. With its flagship location on Coles Street and the new enrichment center on Warren Street, the spaces help pets remain active while maintaining calmness. The structure of the day is flexible, ensuring pets are neither overstimulated nor left without engagement, providing them with a balanced routine that offers security and ease. Each pet’s age, size, personality, and comfort level are carefully considered to place them in the appropriate playgroup. Whether a dog enjoys active play with others or prefers a quieter day, the team adjusts the experience to meet individual needs, allowing each animal to feel secure and respected during their stay. The opening of Woofs ’n Whiskers, Too! represents a shift toward mindful enrichment care. This renovated indoor space is designed to align with dogs’ instincts, transitioning away from constant high-energy play to incorporate sensory activities alongside time for rest. Dogs participate in activities that encourage exploration and curiosity, while also providing moments for calmness.
