My puppy Pluto began spending a day-a a-week at Wiggly Pupps when he was 4 months old. Having just been to another doggy daycare where he was quite unhappy, I was so delighted to see how excited he was to jump into the day care and into Jasmine’s (the caregiver) arms. The place is adorable. It is being constantly cleaned, smells fantastic, the dogs are clearly happy. In fact, last time I went to pick Pluto up, he wanted to run back to the daycare. What a relief. Paul is very responsive, supportive, clear and patient with concerns about Pluto. Thank Wiggly Pups.
We wanted to find our neighborhood groomer and potentially daycare spot for our young puppy, but we were very disappointed. We dropped our dog off at the location, which is a swelteringly hot, loud basement. A woman at the front desk took our dog in, stating that the groomer hadn’t arrived but that we could text him with our desired look and specifications. I sent a text, to no response. We were pleased that Wiggly Pups gave us a heads up on when to pick our dog so that she wouldn’t be waiting in a loud kennel for hours. When we picked her up, however, it was clear that the groomer has little grooming experience and even less with handling a puppy. The staff told us that in their care, our dog had escaped their gates, which was scary to hear as a new dog owner who was looking for a trustworthy place to leave their pup for the first time. When I brought her home and really looked her square in the face, her face hair / whiskers were completely uneven and her paws had not even been trimmed so as to clean up her long hair. We brought her back to have her face hair righted. As we get there, Wiggly Pups had so many devices running that all the lights went out, leaving us in the dark with our young puppy in a business new to us. When she came out the second time, I said that it still looked very uneven, to which the groomer replied that it is very hard to get even because “she is a puppy and moves the whole time. Would you like me to take her out here and show you how hard it is to cut her hair?”. I also noticed this morning that she was nicked by the razor as well (see pics). At this point my faith in this business having past “wiggly pup” experience (as the name states!) was gone. Not worth a 130 dollar service.
WE ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR WIGGLY PUPS! We just moved to the city, and we were so happy to find Wiggly Pups for our puppy to go to for some daycare. I emailed Paul and set up our doggy "temperament check" date, and once we passed that, we were all set to drop in whenever we wanted! We've taken our dog to Wiggly Pups a few times (with me peeping on the livestream!); we always enjoy the daily pictures of our pup playing, and the staff are great! Then, we went on a trip out of town for a week (for a family wedding), and our NYC dog babysitter we had lined up bailed on us halfway through the week (obviously causing quite a bit of panic on my end!). We needed someone to care for our dog over the long weekend, ASAP--I called Paul in a tizzy, and Henry came to the rescue! Our dog stayed at Wiggly Pups during the day, and Henry cared for him during the evenings and weekend! Henry took excellent care of our dog--sending us daily picture updates, even giving him a bath when they got caught in the rain! We'd recommend Wiggly Pups to anyone looking for great care for their dog, as well as looking to support a small business with a great staff :)
We love Wiggly Pups! The nicest staff and my puppy is so excited to go every day. Everyone there is so accommodating and takes time to speak with me about how my puppy is doing and always offer guidance. 10/10 recommend :)
My dog, Ellie, has separation anxiety, so I needed to find a place where she’d be comfortable and have sufficient human interaction. After trying several daycares throughout Manhattan, I was ready to give up. Most places had multiple rooms where the staff would watch the dogs from either a window or a camera, only going in to clean on occasion. And anytime I’d ask how she did, I’d get a canned “she did great!” (as if I hadn’t watched her cower in a corner all day on their video stream) So, when a behavioral trainer had told me to check out Wiggly Pups, I didn’t have high hopes, but I decided to reach out anyways. The owner, Paul, spent over an hour on the phone with me answering my questions, explaining the Wiggly Pups culture, and assuring me that the dogs are never left alone. I was hesitant, because it sounded too good to be true, but somehow, it has turned out to be even better than I could have imagined! We have now been loyal Wiggly Pups clients for the past 4 months and I could not be more grateful to them. The incredible staff (shoutout to Josh and Jaz whose praises can’t be sung loud enough) not only continue to meet Ellie’s needs, but they also report back to me with descriptions that actually sound like my dog! I cannot recommend Wiggly Pups more highly - the individualized attention that they give to their dogs is unmatched by other (and oftentimes more expensive!) daycares in NYC.
Wiggly Pups is the best! My 5 month old frenchie just loves going there. The staff and the owners are beyond attentive. They give me updates through the day and send me adorable photos. They are so easy to get in contact with and very knowledgeable about raising a dog. I recommend Wiggly Pups to everyone! Leaving your puppy is hard, but it makes it so much easier when the team is so trustworthy and really cares about the well-being of your pup. 10/10 spot! Couldn't be more thankful to have found such a great place!
