K9dergarten - Jersey City, New Jersey

Great place! Our dog loves it, they have an outdoor area which is amazing. She’s always happy to go there and happy to see people who work there and it’s a good sign. She even made it to the honor board this month 🙂 We use their daycare and boarding services.

I have no words to describe how much K9 has meant to myself and my pup in the last month. On Christmas eve I fell down my stairs breaking my ankle, and we have been customers for daycare, and the occasional overnight @ K9, and my dog RUNS to the door, (SPRINTS)

Fast forward to Christmas eve, I had to find a place for my pup to go for 4 weeks, that i Trusted. And K9 was there for us in the most difficult times, from the front desk calling to check in occasionally, to Melissa personally making besties with my dog and sending me video's photos, and keeping me updated.

I don't know where we would have turned with you guys. We are so lucky you're just a walk away.

I hope this updates. I can not bring to words how well Kendal has done staffing k9. My dog is afraid of his own shadow. And THRIVES at K9. We are now over 3 year customers. And I still can’t walk down the plaza without my pup wanting to sprint to K9.

Thank god they
are in our neighborhood

We absolutely LOVE k9dergarten. We bring our dog here 2-3x/week and always know our dog is going to be well cared for and have a great time! The staff is really friendly and you can tell they genuinely love the dogs. I would definitely recommend K9!

K9 is awesome, their team, Kendal and Mark, everyone there is brilliant with pups.

We have been using their services for over 7 years now and we trust them with Bruno, for his short and long term stays. We've traveled out of country for emergencies, needing to leave him with them for over 2 weeks, and our boy was well taken care of. They are conscious of his allergies, care items, medicines, everything.

Even though we don't live in the area now, but we still bring Bruno around to K9, because we trust them with him.

My pup loves this place! We've been going here a few times a week for the last two months, and I'm so thankful K9dergarten exists to give my girl the most fun!

DO NOT send your dog here. The first time I used their services, they cut my dog's nails without permission and they cut way below the quick, causing one of his nails to bleed for hours (and no one said anything to me about this when I picked him up. I only noticed once we were back home). Most recently, my dog came home with mysterious, symmetrical sores on both sides of his mouth that no one could explain. He also limped all the way home and the entire day after I picked him up. Management has been "investigating" what could have happened while he was under their care for almost two weeks now and I still don't have an answer (other than: "Dogs are very creative about getting into trouble"). Oh, and they chose to cut his nails way below the quick again, despite a request to never cut his nails again.

TLDR: Your pets WILL NOT be safe here.

Sky at the front desk is rude every time I go in. I will never be back because of her. You want to feel welcomed when you walk in with you dog and front desk staff (sky) shouldn’t make you feel dumb,
And unwelcomed. She’s constantly rolling her eyes at customers, not just me. She needs to be fired.

I'm only not posting a 1-star because we did have several 'good' months here with our dog in the play group (we'd bring him 1-2x/week)... until he was attacked by another dog. The owner/staff told us that it wasn't our dog's fault and that the other dog was known to have behavior/aggression issues and kept separate from the group because of that but they were trying to assimilate her by bringing her into the group for half-hour increments. This is a major issue because it puts all of the other dogs in harm's way. We do not pay money for our dog to be in this position and on this day, he was attacked badly - pinned to the ground, bit all over, needing stitches on his belly and ear. They then kept our dog in a cage until we arrived. After that we never wanted to bring him back but still had sessions left on our package and K9 did not refund us for those. Horrible decision-making by the staff and completely unfair for the dogs who are safe and well-behaved and whose owners assume will be in a safe space.
