Woofs 'n Whiskers

For nearly 30 years, Woofs 'n Whiskers has been a trusted pet care facility and a steady part of Brooklyn, serving generations of pet owners in Red Hook, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, DUMBO, and nearby areas. It began in the 1990s as a small, family-run dog-walking service and grew into a full-service pet retreat centered on care and community commitment.

In 2004, the original location was transformed into a place for pet boarding, daycare, and grooming. Since then, it has remained committed to its values of comfort, trust, and transparency. Supported by a dedicated team with years of experience, it continues to provide a safe environment where pets thrive, and owners can feel confident in the care provided.

Each day at the facility is carefully planned and organized. The flagship location on Coles Street and the enrichment center on Warren Street are designed to help pets stay active while also having time to relax. The structure of the day allows for flexibility, ensuring pets are neither overstimulated nor left without activity, thereby creating a routine that helps them feel secure and at ease.

Each pet’s size, age, comfort level, and personality are taken into account when placing them in groups that match their specific needs. Whether a dog prefers active play or a calm day, the staff adjusts activities to ensure each pet feels respected and safe during their stay.

The addition of Woofs ’n Whiskers, Too! marked a step toward enrichment-focused care, considering the instincts of dogs. This renovated indoor space transitions away from all-day high-energy play and offers a mix of sensory activities and rest periods. Dogs experience activities that encourage exploration while also offering periods of quiet. Shuttle and drop-off services are available for owners seeking this type of focused care for their pets.

The team includes trained staff certified in pet first aid and CPR, with many having experience in animal behavior. They remain calm and observant, understanding how to support each pet’s needs while maintaining a safe environment. Clear and open communication with owners is a priority, offering updates on behavior and health throughout each pet’s stay.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the company continued to operate, recognizing the need for ongoing care for pets and their owners. A donation program was established to assist first responders and their families in covering daycare costs during challenging times. The company also collaborated with others to provide emergency shelter for pets when owners were hospitalized and expanded these efforts to assist domestic violence survivors by offering temporary care for their pets, allowing them to find safety.

The company values its role in the community, working with programs to provide job training and employment opportunities, including positions for individuals with developmental disabilities. Staff and leadership stay involved in local efforts, supporting adoption events and animal welfare programs that align with its mission.

Woofs N Whiskers views pet care as a responsibility to both pets and the people who care for them, providing clear updates and consistent care so owners always know how their pets are doing. Woofs N Whiskers remains dedicated to providing a safe place where pets feel secure and owners trust the care their companions receive.
