We've been using Strutting Mutts for over 5 years--first with our beloved dog Toby, who received the absolute best care and loved his walks with Darnell and Cory. When we brought home our two new pups, choosing Strutting Mutts again was a no-brainer. Whether it's walks or overnight stays at their home, we always know our dogs are in the best hands. Cory, Paul, Darnell and the whole crew truly go above and beyond, and we're so grateful. Highly recommend Strutting Mutts to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional dog care in Brooklyn! read more

A HUGE shoutout to Paul & Cory for consistently taking care of kenzo when i travel. They have known Kenzo since he was a puppy & I can't thank them enough. Every time i travel i know he's in the best hands. Not to mention Kenzo loves them. Finding a place to leave your pup while traveling can be stressful but they make it so seamless! read more

We have been a part of the Strutting Mutts family for about a year now sending our dog Daisy to day-care and hiring the Strutting Mutts team for walks. We cannot thank Cory and the team enough for all the love and care they show Daisy. She can be an anxious dog or a super high energy dog depending on the situation, and she has always been so comfortable and happy at Strutting Mutts. We tried so many different dog walk and dog care services in Williamsburg and as "helicopter dog parents" Strutting Mutts is our favorite. The team listens to us and our needs and takes amazing care of Daisy. Truly I cannot say enough positive things about Strutting Mutts. read more

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! read more

Strutting Mutts - Dog Walkers Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

My dog needed social skills and get used to being around different dogs, as she is too attached to me. I started to drop her here about once a week to help her get socially comfortable, and it worked. She likes this place so much that each time we walk by, she pulls me to the door as she wants to get in. It really helped her to be more friendly and play with so many super cute dogs. I absolutely love this place. read more

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. read more

*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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

DONT GO. LIARS AND SCAMMERS. I dont know how they have such high ratings. The most unprofessional experience ive had with a dog groomer. THEY ALSO CHARGED ME $10 MORE THAN THE PRICE LISTED. First off, scheduling the simple nail trim was a nightmare. The person NEVER ANSWERED. Then when i finally scheduled, The groomer was at least 30 minutes late. (They told us this happens often. EXCUSE ME?!) I left my dog because i had to return to work and was already well over the time i told my coworkers i would be gone for BECAUSE THEY WERE LATE. Then when i hadnt heard back from them (for over an hour after i dropped my dog off) i finally decided to call them and the person i interacted with had left so no one could tell me if my dog was serviced. Then i called the groomer who never picked up!!! Then when they did call they claimed they tried to get in contact with me (which was a lie) and they had called the wrong number even though i has CALLED THEM SEVERAL TIMES So i had to go back and pick my dog up with no confirmation on whether my dog was serviced or not. Unprofessional, lazy, SCAMMERS, AND liars. read more

Just moved to Williamsburg and needed to find a groomer for my 1.5yo Bernedoodle. Gabby was excellent in every respect! Great communication, didn't make me feel rushed explaining how I wanted my dog groomed during drop-off, and a phenomenal final product. You can tell Gabby takes pride in her work! My dog was extra dirty so she gave him multiple baths, without increasing the price! Great pickup, too: helpful recommendations for the next visit and maintenance till then. So lucky to live near Strutting Mutts! read more

Omg had my dog groomed by GABBY.... She did a awesome job on my puppy...my puppy VORTEX had very matted hair and long claws...he came home looking amazing no more claws and smelled delicious.... Prompt attention when service and got a call when my puppy was done...kudos GAVBY thanks so much... you will be my forever groomer read more

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 read more

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! read more

Thank goodness for this place!! I've been in a pickle a few times with somebody watching my dog and Strutting Mutts has always come to my rescue! The pick up and drop off service saves my butt! And everyone who works there is so kind. I was so nervous for my dogs first time and they really made me feel so comfortable with the experience. I'm very grateful for their services. read more

We've been using Paul & Cory for just around a month now for our 9 month old puppy as we get ready to return for work. Already, we use them for dog walks and dog sitting on the weekend if we're not around. Using them has provided a huge relief and one less thing to worry about as we head back to offices. Paulie, our puppy, absolutely loves them and gets great exercise on his walks. The communication is outstanding and the detailed reports after each walk make everything seamless and easy. Would strongly recommend! read more

Strutting Mutts is hands down the best pet service. I cannot say enough good things about them. We started using Strutting Mutts after we adopted our sweet but very fearful dog. Paul & Destiny were so patient and kind to our pup after MANY months of our dog not allowing them to leash her. The team did everything in their power to make our dog comfortable with them. After about three months of daily work, Phoebe finally allowed Destiny to leash her to go on walks. The time, energy, and love that the team put into our dog is something I'll always be grateful for. If you're considering using Strutting Mutts, I would not hesitate. You're in for a real treat! read more

We had a last minute cancellation with a dog sitter so we're in a bit of a scramble to find an alternative option when we discovered Strutting Mutts. It was really easy to sign up and to reserve a spot for our pup each day, and he always seemed happy when we picked him up. The staff are very welcoming and attentive to the dogs. And we appreciate how there is a good amount of space for the dogs to play in. read more

Paul and Corey have been walking our dog and dog sitting for us since we brought our puppy home 2 years ago. They are extremely caring, reliable, and communicative. We sometimes joke that if we ever leave NYC we'll have to convince them to come with us because there's no one else that we trust as much with our pup. Also worth mentioning that our dog LOVES them and is always excited to see them. read more

Paul and Cory are amazing. So happy I found them. They've been walking and dog sitting for my pup Rudy since I got him and I couldn't be more thankful for the amazing treatment he's gotten. I feel so safe working long hospital hours with strutting mutts taking care of my pup. He absolutely loves them and every time I walk past their apartment he cries at their door and tries to go in their building so I know he's in good hands lol. Highly highly recommend !! Thanks for taking the best care of my pup! :) couldn't be happier with strutting mutts :) read more

If there was an option to give more than 5 stars, I would!!! Look NO FURTHER for excellent care of your pup. Dog loving entrepreneurs Paul and Cory go above and beyond, are super cautious during this pandemic, and have a team of wonderful walkers as well. I recently hurt my back and could barely move. Paul came over for an initial meet and greet with myself and my mutt, Yuki, to assess her needs and personality. Then Cory not only took her for long, nice walks, even if it was last minute, but made sure she had food and fresh water, brought me Gatorade, coconut water, Advil, or anything i needed at the store and even picked up my prescriptions for me! So when I say above and beyond, that is an understatement. Their kind nature with dogs and understanding of the pack mentality is incredible. Yuki was enthralled to see Cory every time he came to get her. With amazingly fair prices on top of all of this, Strutting Mutts is the way to go!!! read more

Our pup, Hazel, got a cut and groom and we had a great experience! I was a little nervous because it was Hazel's first big cut, but Gabby did a wonderful job. Have been so happy with everything at Strutting Mutts. read more

Great grooming. My dog came out clean, nicely deshedded, and smelling great. Price comparable to other local groomers. My only issue was with timing. They were very busy that day and didn't know how long it would be until he was ready, so I had to drop him off, stay nearby and pick him up 4 hours later. Sort of a wasted day. I would probably only come back if they could guarantee a narrower pick up window. read more

Strutting Mutts is exactly what you want in your dog walker and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are very communicative so you always know what's going on with your pooch pal. What I most appreciate is their innate love and care for the pups they walk (and dogs in general); they always treat our dog, Tina, as if she was their own dog. That sort of care and attention is really what makes Strutting Mutts an incomparable organization. Bonus note: they take bangin pictures of your dog while they're out strutting around, whenever I'm asked to show a picture of my dog I always use one that Paul has taken. Finally, I really appreciate the preparations and cautions they have taken to address concerns during this time of Covid-19. They have taken it to the next level and it really puts the mind at ease. Top notch service overall, the type of neighborly, personal dog walking that you're not going to find anywhere else. read more

I truly don't know what we would do without Strutting Mutts! We recently moved to Williamsburg and have two larger dogs (95lbs and 65lbs) that each have their quirks that can make it stressful as owners to trust them with dog walkers. I am sure other owners of leash reactive dogs can relate, but I can honestly say I don't worry at all when they are with Cory or Darnel! Our dogs love them, and I love the updates I get when they are picked up & dropped off, including the cutest reports about their walk & who they walked with. Our schedules can also be pretty inconsistent, but they always find a way to accommodate. Thanks for taking such good care of our boys, Strutting Mutts. We can't recommend them enough. read more

clearly no one here is very organized. I have entrusted strutting mutts with my dog for daycare and I guess fool my once shame on you, fool my twice shame on me. in the past week they have royally f'd up twice. The owner is a lovely person, but is always overwhelmed and stressed and clearly does not have a grasp on the amount of pets they are responsible for. After paying extra for my dog to be dropped off at home, he was just left inside the apartment, none of my instructions followed. He was without food and water for hours in the dark and got into some very dangerous things as he was not put in his crate like asked. After receiving an apology I needed there services the following week and made sure to tell everyone i could at the daycare how he needed to be put away. When I came home he was in pitch darkness and had thrown up everywhere. They clearly have gotten in over their head, and do not have the time or attention to offer any genuine care for our pets. read more
