RUNNING PAWS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST IN THE DOG BUSINESS
by Stargirl100
February 27, 2009
Running Paws is the greatest doggie daycare in New York State not just NYC. As an owner of 5 dogs I can say that I did more of my share of research for Doggie Daycares. My hounds have been to a few daycares over the years. Running Paws is by far the absolute best. The staff is courteous, friendly, caring and very loving towards the dogs. Their facility is amazing and my dogs love it. I live in Bronx, NY and travel 20 miles in traffic just to get my dogs to the best doggie daycare around. Running Paws is AMAZING!!!!
- Pros: THE DOGS ARE ALWAYS SUPERVISED
- Cons: None
Not that Expensive!

I read a few reviews that say Running Paws is expensive. They aren't any more expensive than other day care and boarding places. I have been to 2 other dog daycares and I can say from experience that I spend less at Running Paws than I did anywhere else. They have no membership fee and the setting is ideal for any good dog.
- Pros: Great staff!
- Cons: none!
Exceptional Care

I can't express how good this place is. The key selling point for me was that they do not allow aggressive dogs. We all have heard some horror stories about day cares, but the manager knew every dog in there and really did everything he could to ease my mind (ask my husband... that isn't easy to do!). Being able to watch my dog play through their glass wall was great! I would recommend this place to any dog owner looking for day care!
- Pros: Staff and service
- Cons: None!
Absolute Best Grooming

The groomer at Running Paws was Chloe's first groomer (at a different salon) and I was elated to have found him again. Chloe greeted Jim like a long, lost uncle! Jim not only provides the absolute best grooming, but also, he is gentle and caring . . . the consummate professional! As we walked out of the salon, a tourist stopped to take Chloe?s photo . . .
The perfect place for my puppy

I was trying to get the perfect place for Pookie to get her first grooming and my boyfriend told my about running paws, I checked the reviews and I realized that was the only place that had great reviews and 5 stars.
So I decided to take her, and what can I say? Everything was great, the customer service was wonderful and the way that they treated Pookie was awesome.....I'm really happy with the service that they offer...
Great Place!

Loved it, great place to send your dog overnight or just for the day! Staff is friendly and kind. They love animals. Great place to socialize your dog!
Friendly, Considerate Staff & Groomer

I took my puppy here for his first grooming and was informed he had to be shaved because of matting (a common problem). I was upset when I heard this, but the staff was extremely considerate and let me take the time to think about what was best for my puppy. They were patient and my puppy got a wonderful haircut, he looked great and he pranced around for hours after the cut - he was so happy! He even wanted to stay and play after the grooming session. I definitely recommend it.
- Pros: Great staff, quick service, experienced and professional groomer.
- Cons: May be hard to get an appt.
Absolutely THE BEST!

We've used Running Paws for 2 years and LOVE them. Our little dog is always happy to see his runner (they hire great people), and he comes home from his sessions well-exercised and content. I'd recommend Running Paws to anyone with an energetic, active dog.
- Pros: great staff
- Cons: expensive

I have only tried this day care, but they are very good. The staff is very delightful. My dog likes it too and thats all that matters.
They're the best!

My 7 month old puppy loves Running Paws. The staff is so honest. They will tell you exactly what your dog has been up to. That makes me feel very comfortable leaving my puppy there. They notice the littlest scratches on my dog and let me know if the dog has any loose stools. The care they give my baby is outstanding. Second to none!
- Pros: Clean and friendly
- Cons: A little pricey
