Although I purchased a few different items, I found everything I needed and more at Bushwick Bark. I must say, I was absolutely impressed by the cashiers/associates warm, friendly and attentive nature. She definitely helped me along the way, amongst others. Plus she even had so much patience to help me with my time there. She was great and recommended great items that I was looking for. I ended up buying a spray for my two felines that were scratching up my furniture, a catnip toy and 2 treats for my German sheperds. They were so eager to eat their treat, they smelled the treats as soon as I walked into the house. Bushwick Bark had a bit of everything needed for pets and they were even foster 2 of the cutest kittens ever. Definitely would recommend their services.
I used their self service dog wash service. Employees were very friendly and helpful. They provide towels, shampoo, conditioner, brush, a dryer and an apron to (help) keep you dry. There’s a bench and a leash that attached to the wall to use. Definitely will use again.
They did an amazing job grooming my dog Evie. I made an appointment for next month and will keep bringing her back to them. I recommend this place to all my friends.
The staff at Bushwick Bark is awesome! Super friendly and helpful. I brought my puppy in to get groomed for the first time ever, and he came back to me fluffy, all trimmed up and looking more handsome than ever!
Had no idea what time this place closed (was a couple minutes late) dog was excited to go in. But started walking away and whoever the girl was who ran to the door (in a walking boot no less) came to give my dog a treat.Super nice and unexpected.
They got my 155 lbs malamute in for a last minute grooming appointment and did not disappoint. This is easily the best quality grooming Ive seen in Brooklyn so far with a very reasonable price.
I have a 90lb German Shepherd/Husky mix, who is a nightmare to groom. Its usually over $120 to get him groomed in Brooklyn, and washing him at home is virtually impossible. Not only is it super affordable at Bushwick Bark, the staff is SUPER friendly and helpful. They include everything you need in the self service dog wash station, and they take care of clean up. I got the dog washed, a professional nail clipping, and a HUGE bone (cow femur?) in under an hour, for around $50. Unbeatable. Will DEFINITELY be back. Thank you!*Edit: Heres my dog next to a burrito, for scale. All white, grooming nightmare.
I was there for the self service dog wash. On that front its a big fail. You will invariably get yourself wet. To save my back I put him on that little bench - but immediately started to get water on my shoes. The other possibility would be to put him on the ground, sit on the bench - crouching down so I can reach him? - and, I dont know, put my feet up on the bench as well? How is this supposed to work?The employees had no idea either.They have warm water, a warm dryer, shampoo, towels, brushes etc. It was roughly $15.Otherwise: nice store, friendly employees. The single star is for the self service dog wash only.
The staff here were super friendly and helpful. The groomer was very accommodating and attentive to our dog. She was knowledgeable, gentle, and made our pup look like an adorable teddy bear. I will definitely return!
We are regulars at Bushwick Bark! Love this place! Owner are awesome and so are their products! Plus they are excellent to this community out here in Bushwick!
The self service dog wash closes at 7pm. I been coming here since October and have washed my dog around this time. If I knew that they close the dog wash at 7 PM I would’ve stopped by there earlier to avoid this. this is only disappointing because I took my dog out to get nice and dirty today because I knew I could wash him at 7pm. To avoid this in the future with new customers I highly advise that management makes it known to their customers either online or on the front door. Also, the hours posted on google is wrong
My dog has a double coat and she was shaved down completely (not supposed to be done with double coat dogs). I’m very upset at the service we received.
They did an amazing job on my pom terriers first groom! She’s a nervous rescue but was great for them. The whole staff is super sweet, and their prices were unbelievably reasonable! Yuna smells, looks, and feels great! They also have a wonderful selection of sweaters and supplies. Thank you!Update: Another groom, another amazing experience.Also, expert recommendation on what to feed my picky dog! She eats all her meals now. Thank you
Excellent service!! I used their self-serve grooming station, extremely convenient. The staff was friendly, and knowledgeable about food options. Highly recommended. Ill definitely be back
Theyre so friendly here! I had a bunch of issues getting my dogs vaccine papers and they were really patient and helpful. Then they still groomed my dog even after my appointment time due to my issue. I saw them interacting with a lot of customers while I was waiting and they were so sweet to all the dogs and seemed to be really knowledgeable about and connected to their customers. My dog came out looking super cute and soft and he was very happy. Usually after a groom hes a little upset the rest of the day but he was in really good spirits. I dont think Ill get him groomed anywhere else!
Took my dog Mylo in about 2 months ago and had an amazing experience. They were very sweet with him and the customer service was great.Mylo went in for a full groom and came out with the best haircut. They followed my instructions to the T.I will definitely be going back!The only downside is that it is ONLY cash. But, we should all support Small Businesses so why not?
Staff is so knowledge and friendly! They partner with local adoption organizations and provide beginner kits for new dog owners who adopt from those organizations. But Im sure if youre a new dog owner or youve adopted from an org that they dont partner with they be happy to point you in the right direction. Prices are pretty high but thats generally what you should expect at a store that isnt an enormous chain. They also do grooming!
I usually have no problems getting my dog groomed with them but this time I left extremely upset. I showed the groomer (Daniel) a photo of the shape I wanted and said he can cut as short as needed but maintain that shape. It’s the same conversation I’ve had previous groomers there and I he said he could do it. He did not communicate with me well and did whatever he wanted. I paid $75 for my dog to be completely, unevenly shaved, which I could’ve done myself for free. I’m very upset, and would honestly be willing travel farther and pay more for better service somewhere in the future. I’ve never had problems with their grooming service before but I won’t trust this current groomer with my dog again.
Hands down the best pet supply in Brooklyn. Helpful, attentive and animal-loving owner and staff who stock the store with an unbeatable variety of food and supplies. Passionate about animals, they are also involved in education, outreach and rescue which to me are the best kind of people to be running a pet supply business. Whenever Ive had an issue with a product, Dottie the owner has gone above and beyond to address with vendors to ensure quality control and customer satisfaction. Long live the Bushwick Bark family!
Bushwick Bark is a great little store. They have grooming in the back (although appointments are usually booked out at least a month in advance). They keep some basic dog and cat food/toys/supplies on hand. Slightly more expensive than buying online, but not bad considering its a local business! The best part about this small place is their self dog wash! They have a shower set up in the front with a sliding glass door that includes everything you would need to wash your dog. For only $14 they provide the hair brush, shampoo, conditioner, towels, apron, etc. to be able to wash your dog without making the mess in your own home. NOTE: when I went in last week, December 10, 2018, the self dog wash was out of service. I will try to make an edit when it is in use again.
The friendliest staff and super helpful. They always are super caring for my dog and help me find all the right products for him. Groomer there is very knowledgeable about different breeds needs and recommended the perfect brush for my fluffy dog.
I love this place. When I rescued my pup, I brought her here because a) the women who work there wanted to meet her after I had told them I was rescuing a dog a few days earlier, and b) she was a really picky eater at first. When I brought her in, the two women were super helpful and gave me a ton of samples to help her find something she liked. They let me open a can of food in-store to see if my dog would eat it, and gave me samples of raw food, too. I ended up buying Weruva canned food and Raw Dynamic frozen raw food because my dog ate them in-store and I knew she liked them. Super helpful and knowledgeable! I had no idea dogs could eat raw meat until they explained it and the benefits to me. My dog loves eating raw and its made her coat SO smooth and soft, and she absolutely gobbles it up.
Bushwick Bark has a very friendly staff, lots of great products, and sweet kittens for adoption! I really appreciate the services offered - nail trims, grooming, and bathing (including a self-serve dog bath). It also frequently hosts events and the staff always gives treats to good animals.
Picking my dog after a groom he was shaking like a leaf, got home and took a look at him and the poor guy had taken a bashing, 2 cuts on his body by his family jewels and one right on the end of the place that none wants a cut so no wonder.I phoned, explained and Megan kindly offered to pay any vets bills and refund my money. 6 weeks later and several phone calls and I received a check for just over half the vets bill and nothing more. They had deemed part of the vets bill unnecessary (They checked for an infection in case he had caught anything from the clippers !) and told me I refused a refund when I specifically requested one directly on the phone to Megan.So in conclusion they hid what they did, traumatized my dog for weeks, offered to refund me, ignore my calls for weeks, then accused me of lying and only refunded part of the vets bill they offered to pay whilst being mildly rude... Great job guys
I came here for the first time about a year ago and had an excellent experience. So I brought my dog back and the groomer was 2.5 hours late for the appointment and did a sloppy job on the haircut. I decided to look that over, since the first time was so great. Well when I called to make the appointment the person on the phone was so disrespectful that I decided not to follow through with the appointment. And I’ve never done that before. The phone conversation was befuddling because I did nothing to warrant any disrespect. Maybe I will try again in a few months and it will be better? Maybe the employees are unhappy there? I don’t know. I hope it was just another anomaly. Not sure if I will return or not.
Don’t waste your time here. Had made an appointment over the phone for a certain date and when the day came I was told it was for the following week. I was ok with that because people always make mistakes and that’s fine but then I came back the following week and I arrived 15 minutes late due to traffic. They told me my appointment was canceled because I wasn’t on time. I didn’t even receive a phone call to let me know someone else will take my place. Very unprofessional service. This place used to be better before with the previous employees. The current employees don’t even try to help you in any way. Will sadly have to find a new place after years of coming here with my 2 pets.
Daniel takes excellent care of our two dogs whenever we bring them in for grooming. One of our pups is high anxiety but Daniel handles him like a total pro and with excellent humor. We honestly dont know what we would do without him.In addition, everyone on the entire Bushwick Bark staff is warm and friendly and clearly true pet people. Our pups get treats as soon as we walk in, and even our scaredy-cat takes a break from whining to do a good sit for the super kind employees. Well be bringing our boys back to Bushwick Bark for as long as were in the neighborhood!
Such a wonderful shop. After only a couple visits they know my dog by name, and hes always so excited to visit! Excellent products, the best staff, and I love how they work with local rescues to help out street cats. Can I rate them more than 5 stars?
New pet store in the neighborhood. It is small but carries excellent brands of dog and cat food. I came here looking for Wellness brand canned cat food that my fussy cats love. The prices were not too much more expensive than what I pay at Petco but for the convenience its worth paying the few cents more. The woman working there was very pleasant and they have the cutest kittens for adoption.
Very nice store. Everyone that works there is always friendly and very helpful. My dog always pulls me in there after daycare so I can’t say no. They give her treats and even measured her for me when I needed a new harness.
Amazing pet store that sells good food for your dog or cat! I love coming here than any other place. I came in with my pup the other day and they showed her so much love! Staff is very friendly and welcoming
Went there today to cut my cat and dogs nails,very amazing customer service very sweet lady also.They handled my pets very nicely and I have to say was probably the best customer service I have ever received. You guys are great thank you for your services !
I just left the store and the vibes all around were very terrible, we did not get a greeting when we entered but others who came in behind us that did not have any melanin in their body receive greetings we went near the pet cage and the young lady who works in the store came over and made sure the cage was closed as if to say don’t touch it. I would not come to the store ever again and I would not tell anyone to come to the store ever again bad vibes all around if I could give it zero stars I would. PERIODT!
I love Bushwick Bark they are a pillar of the community and bring people together. They have everything your pooch will need from food, Torys and care items through to the coolest things in fashion.Also the staff are amazing!
My dog refuses to get in the shower at home. He steps in to the shower stall here without a problem though!
Wonderful little store! Dottie knows all of her customers by name and will get you any healthy dog food on the market. The store is small but immaculately cleaned and perfectly organized. Love it!
Love this place! They did an incredible job grooming our big husky, for less money and in less time than we thought it would take. Absolutely recommend.
Amazing customer service. The cashier was very friendly about working with me to figure out whether a dog coat would fit my little girl. Would definitely come again!
We took our cat in to have her nails trimmed. It was inexpensive and everyone working was very kind. Also, they have kittens there - definitely a plus.
Best pet shop in Bushwick! The people that work there are super friendly and knowledgeable, and they have a great selection of products. They also help giving a staging ground to adoption and rescue centers!
Bushwick Bark on Knickerbocker are the BEST! This is the only tag our fur babies wear. They last for many, many years. Great quality. Highly recommend. Every new baby we get they only wear Bushwick Bark on Knickerbocker
Dottie and her crew are the best!They are always helpful and knowledgeable and the store is jam-packed full of great stuff. Good brands and reasonable prices and if they dont have something they will order it for you.
I love bushwick bark. Dotty, the owner is the sweetest 0erson ever and her staff is the best. my pup is always so excited to go here!
This place is great. Cut my Bassets nails for 10 dollars. He doesnt like a lot of people however, he loves the people at Brooklyn Bark.
Excellent service and care for my pups. There is a groomer at the corner of my block but I still drive/take a cab to this place because they the do a great job.
I love this cute, tucked away place. Staff is top and I trust them 100% with my dog Bella. The price cannot be beat either. Cash only.
Small place but have a friendly staff. Very professional and informs people ahead of time if any changes with the grooming appointment. Love love this place.
Don’t bring your animal here. Sloppy, uncaring, unprofessional, and awful communication skills. These people don’t care about your pet.
I have been going to this place for the last two years to shave my cat. They are always doing a fantastic job, and the cat seems pretty relaxed and calm when I pick her up after!
Large eclectic selection of hard to find dog food. Friendly knowledgeable staff and open till 8pm.
Great pet store! Staff is lovely and always spoils my dachshund lol nail trimming is great and good price!
Super nice people over here. The dog wash is only good if you have a small dog. I was expecting a tub not a walk in shower where I get my feet wet
Great selection and the people who work here are always helpful and friendly. Plus they often have kittens for adoption so I can get a little kitten fix when I pop in!
My dog loves this little store he wants to get in every time we pass by. They know my dog since he was a puppy 🐶. I love this store.
We had such a great experience at Bushwick Bark! They were recommended by so many people to us for grooming and the end result was perfect! If you need a groomer, definitely come here - you wont regret it!
Love this place. They carry premium dog food and treats my Boston Terrier loves. And the best prices.
Great self-washing station!! The staff are so kind and helpful; their love of animals is palpable! Fantastic treats!!
So friendly. Great toys. And pup loves it there!!
Folks here are super nice, they stock high-quality cat food, and I love to saying hi to the kittens!
Amazing staff super friendly and helpful, excellent service! Our dog love the doggie wash.
I love Carolina shes the best groomer hands down! I hope I spelled her name right...the work she does on Bella never disappoints me
Super quaint small shop that clearly loves every animal that walks through their doors. Small business that supports small businesses. Great place.
Love this place so much!!! My dog been here twice and they take great care of him and groom him so nicely.
Great location! Good variety for both dogs and cats!
Definitely like this store & the coworkers. However certain things are too expensive & wayyy cheaper online or even at other pet stores
I go there every day why? Its a different kind of place mix group very safe friendly everyone will feel welcome very special
Everyone is very friendly and helpful. My two pups love gong shopping for new treats.
Warning for dog parents: My pup and I had a terrible experience at her last grooming appointment.Her vet trims her nails regularly with no problems. I also had taken her to Bushwick Bark once before and it seemed to go fine. This time though I could hear that she was in distress within minutes of the groomer bringing her into the back room. I waited to see if she would calm down but it got worse so I went back to see if I could calm her down. That was when I saw there was ANOTHER DOG back there in the grooming room, which is tiny and cramped. Seemed like the groomer’s pet. I was not informed or asked if it was ok there was another dog there. My dog is friendly but gets excited and sometimes stressed around unfamiliar dogs, particularly if she is on leash or otherwise restrained. I would NEVER have consented to letting her be put in restraints and handled by an unfamiliar person WITH ANOTHER DOG in that tiny room, and I am shocked that a “pet friendly” business like Bushwick Bark would think it was ok to do that.I will not be bringing her back. For some pet owners this may be the easiest or only grooming option, so I would just advise you to ask if there are another animals in the back room or insist on accompanying your pet during the visit.
Excellent job trimming and grooming my cavalier, he also seemed very comfortable and pleased
Best place to get your dog groomed. They treat my dog with care and are very kind.
Knowledgeable, warm and friendly staff. Thanks for keeping my pup hydrated while we’re out on errands.
Love it here they are great friendly they even stood late so I can get my dog nail clipped
When I posted this, they were the only store with flea medicine in the area.
Very friendly to the new guy. Loving service, willing to work with you to meet your needs.
The manager was so rude when my dog Chico got injured, please dont go here I cant believe they hurt animals and then treat you like its your fault !
Small but sweet local pet store. Lots of organic and healthy dog food and treats.
Very friendly staff, great products and a self dog wash station.
Dottie and her team are the best! They are accommodating and always help me find what I need.
Great staff. Small place, but they have everything!
Called to book an appointment and was told there next available appointment is in September.4 months for an appointment….?No thanks.
Really friendly. Good selection. Grooming is a little $$$.
I love it 😍 they shaved him perfectly and gave him a bow tie. Thanks bushwick bark!
Super friendly staff, and the store seemed very well stocked
The staff are friendly and my dog was happy thank again

I looooove bushwick bark. idk what it is but my partner and i just love going to a pet store and bushwick bark is great. the staff is usually so nice and they have a great selection of things.at this location they foster little kittens and we love going in to say hello, our hearts break every time :( but they are the cutestthey have a groomers that i haven’t tried so can’t speak on that but they also have a shower which you can pay to use for $14 which includes products to use to give your pup a bath!! it’s super convenient in case you don’t have a tub at home or are coming home from a messy park adventure 🤗really recommend 💓
Alert, yet laid-back. Always coming up with new ideas to educate about nutrition.
I left a one star review in April on Yelp. I called Bushwick Bark to complain about the affects of my dogs haircut provided by their groomers. The woman on the phone took down my contact information for the owner to call me and still has not called me.I have been going to the vet every other week for the past few weeks since he received his haircut at Bushwick Bark. I have visited a total of 5 vets. My dog is full bred Pomeranian and they shaved him down completely even though I demanded for them to leave at least half an inch of fur prior to his cut. One vet even suggested that it looked like he may have been burned from a razor from the cut...The vets confirmed this may be pre clipping alopecia, but this has also led to other issues now such as allergy. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEIR GROOMING SERVICES. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AS WELL!
Amazing at teeth cleaning
Small but cozy.. excellent customer service!!
Nice people, quality products, a neighborhood staple.
Ive been shopping here for years! 2 convenient locations in Bushwick plus theyre a great place to find a new fur baby to adopt!
Great pet shop! Friendly staff
I love all the pictures of the store even all the one the guy in it 😂😂
The best boutique pet supply store in Brooklyn!
Good haircut, friendly and helpful staff.
Always helpful and friendly, and good selection of products to keep a fussy kitten happy
Always kind great service i reccommend everybody to them.....
Cheaper prices than Amazon!!! Very friendly customer service.
Got my two kittens from here. Great, caring staff and the cats are wonderful.
The only spot my dog gets his hair done at.
Friendly staff and very helpful and knowledgeable
