The Canine Corner

I’ve been here several times and have been happy with the service. Everyone is nice and they seem to do a good job with my pup. I made an appt for a bath a few weeks ago. My dog got a little messy at the dog park a few days before so I ended up having to give her a bath myself but she still needed a nail clip and teeth cleaning. I emailed and confirmed she only needed a teeth cleaning and clip. All good. I get there and drop her off. I say I’ll wait since it should be quick. I also added one of the pig ears they sell to my order. 45 mins later I ask how much longer it should be. 5 minutes they say. 10 minutes later they bring out my dog… they’d given her a bath. When I told them I had only requested a clip and teeth cleaning they apologized … But then proceeded to charge me for everything. Including the bath which I had not asked for. Not a huge deal but they should have comped the bath or at least offered the teeth cleaning or pigs ear on the house due to their mistake. They had other clients there so I didn’t want to make a scene. I simply paid and left. Not cool.

The Canine Corner has been caring for my dog, a Belgian Malinois, since he was a young pup. It’s not always easy to find a place that is willing to take such a high drive breed. He it s now 8 months now and they still are happy to take him with open arms.
They even accommodated him when he had a laceration on his leg and my husband and I were going to be our of town for about a week and took him to his bandage changes at the vet.
I even utilize the daycare service from time to time and I have to say it really saves the day for me sometimes. With a high drive puppy like a Belgian he requires lots of attention and when you are sick in bed, stacked with work, or need to get that 20 mile run in for marathon training and can’t leave the naughty dog at home alone– and certainly won’t be in the mood to deal with him when you get home… daycare days are the perfect solution and he comes back tired and sleepy! If I could afford it I would use it more often. The Canine Corner is an invaluable resource and am so thankful I found them, and my dog definitely loves the place he does the «Butt wag» when walking inside.

We love Canine Corner! The staff is amazing– accommodating, caring, professional and so sweet with our dog Greta. The space is really nice, clean and well-​maintained. Greta goes to day care every other day so that she doesn’t get bored at home, but we have boarded her there several times as well. We also use The Peaceful Pack for walks and it’s so great that we can do walks, daycare, and boarding with the same folks. When Greta is at Canine Corner, we feel like she’s with her other family!

I highly recommend The Canine Corner. Our dog goes for half days during the week and we also board him occasionally. We’ve had excellent experience, and I know our dog has by his excitement to walk in each day. Staff are eager to help and most importantly, truly care about the dogs. So happy to have this in the neighborhood.

We are so happy to have found The Canine Corner! We have a very sweet 1 year old rescue pup who loves dogs and most people but has some anxieties and fears, which have affected her experiences at other daycares. She was kicked out of one daycare for constantly trying (and usually succeeding) to leap over all their barriers to escape, and another just made her shut down. She doesn’t go often — once or twice a week at most, but she really loves her days at Canine Corner! The staff have been so sweet to her, very patient and kind, and when I take her there she is always happy to go right in. She is super dog-​friendly, but at the other places she would be too nervous to relax and play with the dogs. The reports we would get were like hearing about a totally different dog — she doesn’t interact with dogs, doesn’t like to play. Here she plays just like she does with us a the dog park. We also have used their boarding service and it is fantastic. She was not kept in a crate at night (which she really hates, though they have them for dogs who prefer that), we took in her own bed, and they actually hand fed her when she wasn’t eating properly (common when she is excited or stressed). The boarding dogs and the dogs there for all day daycare get outside walks, they can nap when tired, and we got regular updates and pictures which showed how happy she was and how she was interacting with the other dogs. It was such a relief to know that she was in such great hands, having fun and not just shut down and waiting for us to come back.

My long-​coated rescue dog Holden is NOT an easy customer and Dominique consistently does an AMAZING job with him. I’ve brought him in with matted, uneven, filthy hair and he always come back looking and smelling great. I know he’s even nipped at Dominique sometimes, and she’s always so patient and understanding. It gives me tremendous peace of mind to know that Holden is in the best possible hands — we’ve tried many groomers before and no one has even been able to get such great results before.

It took me a while to post this review but I felt that I had to for the sake for the dogs and dog owners in the neighborhood. I took my dog here for the first time for a full service groom which includes ear cleaning, nail cutting etc. I dropped him off in the morning and picked him up in the afternoon. Everything seemed fine until I realized that my dog didn’t want to walk. I’m like that’s strange he usually isn’t that kind of dog to do that. I then look down and see that one of his nails on his paw was bleeding! I was so scared and worried for my dog! I’ve taken him to many different groomers many times and this has never happen before. I called up canine corner and I them advised of what was going on. The groomer that worked on my dog said that it was bleeding prior when she cut his nail but it had stopped? I told her why didn’t you inform me of this? She had nothing to say so I asked for management to call me. The manager called me right away and offered to have a vet stop by my house to make sure my dog was okay. The point of my story is that they purposely hid the fact that they hurt my dog instead of coming clean and telling me to be careful with his nail bc it was bleeding prior. The manager then offered my dog a free groom next time I go visit them. I would never take my dog here again. Please beware. I never post bad reviews but in this case I had no choice. I asked for a refund but they refused. So they hurt my dog, didn’t tell me about it then offered for me and my dog to come back to their grooming salon — sorry I’ll never be back again! I took pictures of his bleeding nail too. Poor guy my boy didn’t deserve that:(Now when I try bathing my dog he gets all nervous and scared:(Thanks a lot Canine Corner!

I brought my Yorkiepoo Dexter in for a grooming with Dominique (who also just so happens to be his dog walker). She did a great job! He was cut exactly how I asked and even had an adorable Halloween scarf on when I picked him up. I was running a bit late and they kept him in a doggy suite while he was waiting for me.
I also checked out the dogs in the daycare section and boy, they look super calm and happy. The space is immaculate (and that is saying a lot compared to other daycares in the neighborhood). Also, the service from the staff is great. They are bubbly on the phone and eager to please.
Dexter will be going back for sure!

So my dog has some serious dog aggression issues and he’s done OK at another highly rated boarding facility… but I was amazed at how well behaved he was under Canine Corner’s care. James Aquino is like a Jedi for dogs. I literally walked in with my dog expecting him to go berserk is the beginning before settling down… but I was blown away to see him be extremely calm around the other dogs. All of the dogs there were extremely calm and well behaved. Canine Corner definitely knows what they’re doing with dogs! I will be a regular customer w/​o any worries.

Stopped in on Sat afternoon and saw the guy in the room with dogs treating the dogs aggressively: pushing their heads down to the ground, poking them in their chest, and yes even kicked a dog in its side. I think the dogs were acting up a bit but his behavior was certainly not warranted or acceptable. I’ll be sure not to send my pup here, geez.

We love The Canine Corner! We use them regularly for daycare and boarding (my husband and I travel often for work), and our 1 year old lab mix is always THRILLED to go to The Canine Corner. He’s super sweet, but also young and energetic, and everyone is so kind to him while also reinforcing positive training. The staff is well-​trained and very communicative; the facilities are clean and professional; the dogs are carefully supervised at all times. Our dog loves to play and has made so many new friends at The Canine Corner, hound and human alike. Highly recommended!

Canine Corner is owned by the fine folks at The Peaceful Pack (Mark and James). I booked an appointment for my Sheltie Clemens to be groomed. I was so pleased with the entire experience. The groomer Dominique did a wonderful job. I am very fussy about my pup and I asked for a «show grooming» which is a very specific task with a Sheltie. Down to the most minute detail, Dominique made my dog look just like a show dog (he’s a rescue but of course is treated like royalty in my household). :-)
The price was reasonable and the overall experience very pleasant. I will be bringing my dog back for all his grooming needs. I also board him with James and he’s very well cared for.
BTW, while I was there, I could see the dogs that attend the doggy day care and extended stay boarding. There was always a person in the large, clean space with the dogs. And the dogs seemed to be having a good time.

This place is a dream for me. They are really nice and Knows how to take care of them.. They are really clean and so well organized. The owner is a dog trainer. And he came to my home and train me and my dog. She is doing amazing. Highly recommended.
Thanks god they open closed to my home. Love love love.

We found out about this place from a friend of a friend. It’s pretty new, which I think is why it doesn’t have reviews, and I’m not sure we would have found it – man are we glad we did!
Ditto is as happy as can be at Canine Corner. He’s a very social dog and always comes home exhausted from playing his little Havanese heart out. We’ve taken him for daycare three times and recently picked him up from his first overnight boarding stay, which we like to call «sleepaway camp.» He’s started to recognize the route to the place and pulls to get there faster. When we arrive he paws at the door, which we take as a very good sign that he’s pumped to be going.
The staff there are super friendly and helpful and very responsive by phone and email. Not only are they loving with the pets in their care, they’re also sensitive and patient with those pets’ neurotic parents. Therese was happy to email me photos of Ditto while we were away from him this weekend and to keep me posted about a problem he was having with his eye, which improved under their care. While other kennels leave dogs alone at night, relying on cameras to let them know if anything goes wrong, Canine Corner has someone with the dogs 24 – 7, so there’s always someone there if a pet gets sick or there’s some other emergency. During his boarding time Ditto also got a bath and a trim, and came home to us both looking and smelling fabulous.
Canine Corner also has some great treats. We love their hooves – or I should say, Ditto loves their hooves, and we love that we can eat dinner without having to defend it from the dog. We wish this place were in our neighborhood, but it’s worth the subway trip with dog in tow to know he’s someplace where he’s happy and safe.
