ProspectBArk!

I reached out to ProspectBark and Chunsoon when I needed last-​minute assistance for the week. She was super responsive and accommodating even while working through a move. She scheduled everything very quickly and we were able to meet with the sitter for our area (Duncan) right away.
Duncan was great to work with and our new puppy seemed to really enjoy his company during the multiple visits during the day. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who may need a puppy-​sitter during the workday.

Prospect Bark has been doing cat sitting for me for a couple years. My cat is, frankly, kind of a jerk. Somehow, I get texts from the sitters every time they visit. He’s either covered in a string, eating a treat (approved by me) out of their hands, or up and about instead of hiding on the bed, hissing. A+ right there.
Then, we adopted a rescue dog and needed to enlist their services for afternoon weekday walks. They always text a picture and report on the business done on the walk. I have a crazy schedule and am a totally flakey canceler or last min booker of walks and they are always sweet and kind about it. If my regular walker can’t make it, they always find someone else — and always ask if I want to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure my dog is cool with the new person that’ll be coming to the house. They are always very quick to respond to anything you need. I love that they are able to do anything by email and text as well as calling me — I hate being on the phone.
Super happy!

Prospect Bark takes the time to find dog walkers who genuinely love dogs and go out of their way to make your pup happy. My dog is older and sometimes has to go on bed rest due to arthritis. When she was feeling better, her walker took her to the dog park and gave her 30 extra minutes free of charge. They are also careful to pay attention to your instructions like what your dog needs during bad weather, their diet, behavior issues, etc. It’s a huge weight off your shoulders when you know that your dog is having a good time while you’re at work. I highly recommend Prospect Bark.

We used Prospect Bark for our cat when we went away and are thrilled to have them on our puppy raising team now with our new addition! Having a tiny new addition to the house is hard and for an overly protective pup mommy like myself, the Puppy Package is an absolute must! They not only provide help with potty training and basics but Chun-​Soon has been there a few times to just talk me down after a rough puppy night!
We love our puppy care giver, Duncan! He comes to walk and play with our new puppy two times a day and we could not be happier with the care he gives to our baby! It has got to the point that we absolutely live for his extremely detailed update texts after both his visits. It’s so hard to leave our little one at home while we work but Duncan and the Prospect Bark team make it so much easier!
Honestly, I can’t recommend Prospect Bark enough for anyone with a new puppy and we will definitely continue to enjoy them beyond the puppy growing pains!
We love Prospect Bark!!!

Love them! Always efficient, friendly, available, reasonable and, most importantly… HONEST! You cannot go wrong with them! Even the little things such as leaving a toy for my pup as a welcome gift. Seriously, who does that?! I’m so glad we found them!

The most reliable and easiest group of folks I have ever dealt with. Wife and I used them for cat sitting and dog sitting when we went away for vacation. 2 years later and they still impress us by going above and beyond. While we were on our honeymoon in Paris we realized we left a Lilly in the apartment after the wedding. Our amazing sitter Zach quickly went to our apartment and threw them out after we contacted him what was at 11:30pm his time. He kept a close eye on the cats and per our request he and the owner of Prospect Bark took the cats to a vet and sent us videos and updates. Prospect Bark is an amazing company made up of people who truly love animals and what they do. Best animal care in Brooklyn!

We have two sweet kitties and had a tough time finding good pet sitters that we felt truly cared about them whenever we left town. We’d tried a few cat sitters who were inconsistent and often tardy to feed the cats. We were thrilled when Chun-​Soon sat for our cats a few weeks back. She was incredibly professional, communicative and most importantly, truly cared about our cats. She actually spent time and played with our cats, gave them love and affection, AND she sent us frequent updates, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. We came home to happy kitties who didn’t even seem to notice that we had been gone! We will definitely be calling her again for our next trip. Many many thanks, Prospect Bark!

Timothy cared for my cats for almost 3 weeks! Sent lots of updates which eased my mind. Came home to happy, eating, drinking, peeing, and pooing pets. Very important when you have male cats! ProspectBark is the best!!! Very grateful they exist and that they cover Bay Ridge.

I spent a bit of time and did my research in trying to find a good dog walker in our area of Brooklyn (Ditmas Park!) and when we eventually landed on ProspectBark I was thrilled! I met with Zach and Shaun a couple days later, and set up walks 3x a week in the mid-​afternoons. I can say we really lucked out with Shaun– he’s an amazingly compassionate, true dog-​lover and it was clear that Beau liked seeing him too! Their pricing is very reasonable, and you get a pic and an update after every walk– what an afternoon pick-​me-​up!
If you are in Brooklyn, and looking for a dog walker, I highly recommend ProspectBark, and especially Shaun as the best around!

I don’t usually write reviews, but ProspectBark! just deserved it. We got a new puppy and got a call on Sunday night from our regular dog walker that they could not accommodate the schedule we needed the very next day for taking care of our new pup the very first week he would be home alone.
I immediately called ProspectBark at 6pm and by the end of the evening was reassured they would be able to have someone there for two one hour visits the following day. The dog walker even showed up at 7:45am to meet with us and walk through the do’s and don’ts and most importantly meet our pup!
Thank you a million times over for your professionalism and ability to jump in and help!

This is the BEST dog walking service to use. Bar none. we have had a GREAT Experience with there service. they truly go above and beyond for us and our dogs. Tim is GREAT and caring animal lover. They are reasonably priced and outstanding with our dogs. We love them!!! you wont be sorry.” I promise… THE BEST SERVICE” out there for your pets needs. Highly recommend.*****

My husband and I have an amazingly adorable, sassy, hilarious, and well-​behaved shiba inu named Mandu. And while he’s usually an absolute joy (when he isn’t give me stink eye), he is notoriously wary of new people, and is quite picky about who he trusts. A month ago, I was in a bit of a pickle. My husband was about to go on tour, and with my 9 – 5 schedule, I needed someone to walk our shiba mid-​day. And, our usual dog walker, who has known Mandu since he was a puppy, let us know that she would no longer be able to work with our dog because of her schedule. I panicked, and scheduled consultations with several walkers and walking companies, but none were a fit for us or the pup.
Enter ProspectBark.
After my initial inquiry, where I probably provided too much information about Mandu like the anxious pup-​mom that I am, I received a prompt response from Zachary, the field manager, and we got started. I even got a sunny email from the company’s owner! It became clear from their communications that ProspectBark is well organized, and managed by smart and kind people. After a quick consultation, I could tell that Zachary and Mandu would get along just swimmingly. He was very kind, patient, and accommodating to both the dog and me.
I received text updates on Mandu’s one hour walks, and never felt nervous about the arrangement (which is unusual, since I’m normally a very anxious person). Best of all, I could tell that Mandu was both tired and happy after his walks. After a month of dog-​walker angst, I’m finally at ease. All this to say: If everyone at ProspectBark is like Zachary, then the company is the best.
Highly, highly recommended.

We cannot say enough good things about PropsectBArk! We started using their dog walker service while crate-​training our bulldog, Zeus, at age 5. We had rescued Zeus at age 4 and were reluctant to introduce someone new without being sure they’d take exceptional care of him. We absolutely love our dog walker Allison. She’s patient and has an excellent sense of humor, which can be super important for a stubborn, slow English bully who loves to eat stuff off of the street. She sends us fantastic texts/​photos of our guy on his walk. We really get the sense that she loves her job and loves our dog… which, as two proud dog parents feels great! (Who doesn’t love being told how awesome their dog is?!)
Moreover, the ProspectBArk! team is incredibly responsive and careful in coordinating care. They thoroughly interviewed us regarding Zeus’s needs and preferences. We feel like we have a great back-​up system should we need help in a pinch. I would highly recommend their services to anyone

Great service and very friendly staff! I am so happy with ProspectBARK! I had been working from home since I adopted my puppy last year, but recently started a new job that required me to find a walker. It was hard to be away from my little one every day, but after getting to know the staff and their procedures, I know he is in good hands. Lucy and Shaun are very responsible, friendly and attentive. And I can tell they really love what they do! Very happy.

Cannot recommend highly enough! These guys came through at the last minute when my usual kittysitter bailed on ¹²⁄₂₃ before a 10 day vacation. Then they really impressed me with sweet daily notes and photos of my hairy cat-​baby and a spotless house when I returned. I’ll never go back.

We adopted our puppy about a year ago. We were nervous first time dog owners and we don’t know what we would have done without them. Any small bump in the road was met with a quick response and a solution. They always met or exceeded our needs even with my wife’s and my busy and ever changing schedule.
We recently moved out of Brooklyn and one of the things we will miss the most is them and especially our puppy’s primary caretaker, Beth M., who was exceptional. You can tell she really loves dogs and we always felt safe leaving her with our baby. And we know our puppy will remember her with love and miss her more than even we will.

I moved from Tucson, AZ to Brooklyn, NY in August. In AZ I used to go to the dog park daily and I also had a backyard. I didn’t realize how poorly leash trained my dogs were until I moved to Brooklyn. When I first moved here my work schedule was really crazy and it didn’t take me long to realize that my dogs needed more daily exercise than I was capable of giving. I read a bunch of different reviews and called Chunsoon on a Saturday. That Monday evening, Zachary and Lucy came over to meet Piper and Grayson. In the short 30 minutes that they were meeting my dogs, I think my dogs did every embarrassing misbehavior possible. I was sure that we would «fail» the interview… but I was more than over-​joyed when Lucy started the next day!
I love the daily update with pictures via text. I was shocked to find out that Lucy towel dries then after walks in the rain… she even brings her own towel. She showers them with attention, lots of dog kisses, and belly rubs.
The best and biggest change that I have noticed since Lucy started walking them is their improved behavior when I am walking them. They are still a little crazy but definitely not nearly as nuts as they used to be.
We love ProspectBArk and Piper and Grayson really LOVE Lucy! Thank you guys for giving me peace of mind when I am at work.

I love Prospect Bark and Honey!
I am extremely protective over my kitties, Cheese and Ella and especially my little four pound chihuahua, Alvin. I usually work from home, so my pets are used to virtually constant care and attention. I used to be so nervous when I had to leave home for extended periods of time because I didn’t trust anyone to take care of them like I do. Thanks to Honey, I don’t have to feel anxious when I go out of town.
You can tell that Honey genuinely loves animals and even sends little updates about your little schmoos. I trust that she will be at my place when she says she will and that she will spend time with my animals and make sure they are safe, cleaned up after and walked. I totally recommend her and and Prospect Bark. The 5 star reviews are well deserved!

Tina of Prospect BArk has a lot of fans here; I am just one of many.
While we were in Paris, our cats knocked over a shelf, covering the kitchen floor in broken glass and food. Tina not only let us know, but cleaned it up and made sure the cats were ok. When we tried to pay Tina extra for her time, she said no. She is amazing — not only because she allowed me to come home to a clean kitchen, but because my spazzy kitties adore her.
Thanks Prospect BArk! Thanks Superstar Tina!

I have been with Prospect Bark for over a year and a half now. I have used three dog walkers, and all were excellent. Currently, Damian is walking my furry love, Almond. Damian sends me updates, including photos at times after each walk. I am completely at ease knowing that my dog is in good hands. It’s always a little strange thinking of someone keying into your apartment to walk your dog, but everyone I’ve worked with at Prospect Bark has the kind of energy that puts me and my high-​energy pup at ease. I highly recommend this dog-​walking service.
