Best dog walkers I've ever used. We've used other walkers living all over the NYC area and our experience with VIP has been far superior to any other service we've experienced. Some of my favorite things I want to mention:The App:Their app for scheduling/checking your walks is awesome. It has a user friendly interface and makes it easy to check on the status of your walks. The walkers (who are all great!) take a pic of your pup and their walking buddies and upload it to the app after each walk. Bottom line, its just easy. Schedule the upcoming week on your phone and forget about it. They take care of the rest. The Walkers:Each walker has been great. They have been nothing but reliable, extremely friendly, and send you updates via the app at the start and end of each walk letting you know what business was taken care of, how far they walked, etc. They'll also bring the pups to the dog park on some walks and let them get some energy out! Whenever our pup sees one of his walkers on the street when I'm walking with him, he always gets so excited to see them, which is a great sign!  Shoutout to John, Stephanie, Miriam, and Angelica! All are awesome. Availability and flexibility:VIP has always been EXTREMELY accommodating and flexible when it comes to our work/walk schedules. Working late? No problem, theyll schedule you an additional walk. Going on vacation? They do boarding as well. The owner, Andrea, is genuinely passionate about her business, and is a pleasure to deal with. I cannot say enough good things about her and the other Walkers. After dealing with many other walking companies around the NYC area, VIP has absolutely set a new bar for us. Not sure how else to end this review other than saying that if you live in the PI/WNY arena and you have a walking service other than VIP, you are absolutely missing out. More...

Besides the actual move, finding a new dog walker for your pup is probably one of the most stressful tasks. After a not so great experience with the first company I chose, I went back to do some more research and found Andrea. It's been fantastic so far and I couldn't be more relieved that Bowser is in such great care. Andrea and John are quick with responding, are super accommodating with Bowser, and I love getting daily photos/updates with the GPS showing where they've walked. We currently do the VIP monthly package ($350) for 30 minutes a day, but their walks have been much longer, usually an hour or so! Bowser definitely seems to be loving the walks with his buddies.

I am a very protective dog mom and I really did my research before choosing VIP Canine. Andrea took the time to answer every little question I had, reassured me of anything I was worried about and my puppies and I have been so happy with our decision since day 1! Andrea and her colleagues are lifesavers! I have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies and they love, love, love this team! And so do I! Andrea has bailed me out MANY times with last minute walk requests, last minute boarding and so much more. Each team member always takes time to pet and love my boys when they are picked up and dropped off, they dry them off when wet from rain and snow and they always check water levels before leaving. The daily reports are awesome, especially when I get pictures of the pups playing. I would recommend VIP Canine to anyone. I wish I found them sooner. Keep up the great work! You make it possible to be a working, single-dog-parent. Thank you VIP Canine!! We love you! More...

VIP Canine is an amazing family run business and it's been a life saver for me and my pup, Hari. Hari loves his walks with Miriam and his other dog friends. Miriam always sends detailed updates and pictures. When I am sitting at my desk stressed about the next deliverable, these pictures just make my day and give me so much peace of mind knowing Hari is in good hands. The owner, Andrea is super accommodating and so pleasant to work with and is prompt with communication!Ladies - You guys are lifesavers and thank you for everything you do! More...

The entire team at VIP Canine has been wonderful! We began working with Andrea a year and a half ago when we first got our puppy. She was available immediately to come meet us and our dog, was extremely thorough in explaining the services, gave us so many great tips, and was so flexible in meeting the needs of our puppy during cold winter months. We continued to use VIP for daily walks and occasional day long hiking trips. A year and a half later, we can attribute our dog's great behavior to the training sessions we did with Andrea, as well as the attentiveness of the walkers. They are caring, thorough, honest, and trustworthy. We would recommend them time and time again! More...

Otis' favorite person besides his family is Daniel, his dog walker since last year. The only time Otis gladly leaves my side is when Daniel comes to take him for his daily walk. Seriously my clingy dog absolutely LOVES and adores his VIP team. I can assure you as a long time customer that VIP Canine provides top of the line, personalized service. This is why I love supporting local small businesses because you really cant beat the customer service. Every interaction I've had with the owner Andrea has been personalized and Otis-focused and I appreciate her and her team so much. We have been doing the monthly VIP walks package which gives us other great discounts on services like training or boarding. All their walks are GPS tracked including information about whether he's peed or pooped and pictures of Otis on his walk with his friends. Actually, as I'm writing this Otis is at Andrea's for boarding as we are away from home this weekend. He always loves his time at Andrea's and I wouldn't feel comfortable with anybody else. Please give them a try, you won't regret it. More...

Andrea is a canine lifesaver. When we first got my mini schnauzer puppy, we had no idea where to start house and crate training. My puppy was 9 weeks old and wreaking havoc on our home and ruling the roost. Within 2 weeks of structure and guidance and private training sessions, she was completely house broken, crate trained and responding to basic commands. Andrea also taught my husband and me how to groom our puppy like a professional, which was not easy, and we are still mastering.  I am so grateful for Andrea and her knowledge and help through it all.

I've been using Andrea and her team for a couple years to board and groom my Maltese and Cockpoo. When it was time for me to get a dog walker I went to them. My babies loved their walks. During the warmer months they would take them to a dog park so when they came home they were nice and tired :). I trust them and know my babies are always having a great time. It's great to have a group I can go to with ALL my fur baby needs. I know I can ALWAYS rely on them and best of all my babies are happy when with them!!! More...

Ok this dog walking service is absolutely amazing!  Andrea has taken the time to get to know me and my dog quite well in a very short time.  Yesterday she went above and beyond and at the last minute came out in the snow (we were stuck in traffic for hours) and walked our Smiley.  She not only walks him but reinforces what our private dog trainer is teaching him/us.  She has a very good way with our dog and you can see how naturally and easily she knows her way around dogs.  She treats my dog as though it was her own!  The prices are reasonable and I am so glad to have her and her company right near my condo!

I haven't left a review for VIP Canine since I first move to the area over 5 years ago, so I thought it was time for an update/refresh.  After all this time (and growing competition in the area), I still choose them to take care of my big boy - a big, blind, now senior mastiff - and although they've grown as a business, their service and care has always maintained the highest standards and quality, which sometimes gets lost as companies grow.  Not VIP Canine!  I use VIP Canine for walks and boarding.  I know I can trust Andrea and John (owners) like family members, and their staff are reliable and trust-worthy as well.  They treat each individual pet with care and love, and they are also sensitive to those who are older and/or with special needs.  I have no worries or feelings of discomfort when my boy is in their care whether it be for 1 afternoon walk or 10 days.  Thank you, Andrea, John, and the entire VIP Canine staff.

VIP Canine is incredible. When I found myself in a sticky situation with my landlord and new rescue pup with severe separation anxiety, Andrea was right there to offer her board and train program. I gladly accepted her offer, and it was the best decision I ever made. In four short weeks, Andrea was able to make amazing strides with my dog, both with obedience training and his separation anxiety. She is truly the embodiment of professional and her 15+ years of experience in the dog training business is clear from the results she delivers. I would recommend VIP Canine to my family, friends, and anyone else looking for a trainer. Andrea rocks! You won't be disappointed . . . More...

I have only good things to say about Andrea and her team!  I have been with them for over 4 years.  They have always taken great care of my boxer boy Logan.  He's gotten older and now has to go out more often for potty breaks.  They were able to do two daily walks for him, and now that he's on medications that made the peeing more frequent, he goes to day care with them instead.  Andrea even got a ramp for their vehicle since my boy can't jump easily anymore.  She's always been very flexible with scheduling, which is great for someone like me who doesn't have a fixed weekly work schedule.  I highly recommend her and the team.  I don't know what I would have done without them these last few years!

We have used Andrea, John, and the VIP Canine team since we brought home our little pup. From the first day, Andrea was excellent. She went above and beyond to work with us on leash training, and teaching simple commands.  There is clear communication with everyone on the team via daily notes. They also post pictures to their social media (with owners approval) to show what the dogs are up to during the day. Her dog walks are generally longer than the time we pay for, because she wants all the dogs to socialize and get enough exercise. They are flexible and help us cover late hours if we get stuck at work and won't be home until late.  We also use them for grooming. They will pick up and drop off your dog if they are on their walking service and you would like them groomed. Our pup always looks and smells amazing, and I know she is getting treated with care during her haircut. I would highly recommend VIP Canine to anyone looking for dog walking services! More...

I highly recommend VIP Canine! We originally started using VIP Canine for grooming services, Andrea was the first to give our dog Charlie his now signature mohawk. She is a talented doggie stylist! Eventually we started using their dog walking service as her rates were more competitive than the company we had been using previously. Andrea's walkers show up on time, are very friendly, and take good care of Charlie. He gets walked with a few other dogs in the neighborhood so they are usually out for 30min - 1hr, which is great. We've also boarded Charlie with Andrea a few times and he seems to enjoy himself. Overall the VIP Canine team is professional, trustworthy, and they care about pets - a great local business! More...

VIP Canine is seriously the best dog walking service I could ask for. When I moved to Union City from Brooklyn I decided to get my French bulldog pup and Andrea and her whole team were with me from the beginning. I can't tell you what a stress reliever it has been to know that they come by during the day to care for my baby boy!I got my pup at just 3 months old, and within two weeks he was fully house trained and I attribute a lot of that to Andrea and her team of superhero dog walkers who came by initially twice a day to make sure my little pup could relieve himself. Now he only needs to be walked once a day, but I know that walk is something he has to look forward to everyday while I'm away at work. I work pretty long hours (typically leaving at 8:30AM and not getting home until 7:15) so it's great to know that someone is coming by to make sure my pup gets some exercise and relief. Andrea has also been great about responding right away about my last minute requests for someone to come by at night and feed him on those unexpected work nights where I'm staying late or need to go to an event. She's also walked my boyfriend's dog a few times when his pup has been staying with me for an extended period of time and it's been absolutely the most simple and easy process. Andrea really knows and understands dogs and always has great advice for nutrition and care of my boy. She just goes above and beyond! In the early weeks, my pup came down with a very serious virus, and she was super supportive during that time and very accommodating, making sure he went on solo walks since he couldn't be around other dogs and making sure he stayed hydrated while I was a nervous wreck away at work.I would HIGHLY recommend Andrea and her team at VIP Canine. I simply can't say enough great things about them and am so happy to have Andrea and her team as my little guy's besties during the day while I'm gone. Thanks so much VIP Canine!!!!!!! More...
