Rocco and Jezebel For Pets

Rocco and Jezebel is simply the best it gets. It is a family run business and they are knowledgeable, professional, charming and kind. Best of all, they really care about your pet and the community. They also go the extra mile in terms of service. Today we walked in to see if they had any last minute openings (on Christmas Eve!!) and even though they were really booked up they squeezed us in (and even gave our pet a free treat). I’m proud to have them in the neighborhood — support this local business you won’t regret it!

Kept my dog in a cage for a few hours and didn’t let me know. My dog is now terrified of going there. Also, they made me late for work and acted like I was an inconvenience. Understaffed. Never going back again. Going to cheeky dog or fidos retreat instead.

Rocco and Jezebel is a home away from home for our dog Brando. He’s often there for the weekend or just for a bath. When he’s not there — he’s trying to drag me across the street to go!
Plain and simple: they treat your pet as if it were there’s. Also the items in their shop are the cheapest in the neighborhood.

My dog loves these guys (for grooming and daycare) and pulls me into the store when we walk past. They’re always welcoming with a treat.

This place is awesome! The family who runs it are so sweet. They even remember my dog when I mention her name and describe her on the phone. I took my dog to another place in Brooklyn Heights and they gave her back to me shaved bald, shaking, scared, and with cotton stuck in her ear covered in blood. I took her here and she was terrified when I dropped her off. By the time I picked her up she was so excited she didn’t want to leave. I can’t believe how nice and patient they are. She comes out looking adorable and they even give her a little scarf to wear!

They did a fantastic job with our LhasaPoo puppy grooming her on several occasions. You have to call well ahead of time to book at appt but it’s well worth the wait. We’ve even spotted celebrities who take their pups there!
We also left her for boarding a couple of times and she loved it. When we brought her for a last groom before moving out of town, she ran to the boarding area because she wanted to play!

Andrea is as dedicated to pets, and their owners as anyone can possibly be. They are fabulous groomers, my little mutt looks like a proper Westminster candidate after each coiff. I’ve also found products here that are hard to find, and they’ve gone out of their way to help me on several occasions.

If only I could give 10 stars to Rocco and Jezebel for Pets, I would. They groomed my Shetland Sheepdog and my Persian (both rescues) and did a wonderful job. I’ve never been more pleased with the results.
I had specific requests for both animals and the groomers were very sensitive to my requests, which is literally the first time I’ve been to a groomer who actually did what I requested. I wanted my Sheltie to keep his «pants» which is such a beautiful (but hard to manage) aspect of his coat. All other groomers have just shaved his pants off but Andrea (owner of the business and person who groomed my pup) not only left his pants on :-) but brushed them out so that they are gorgeous. She also managed to brush out his undercoat from the winter (what a task!). I was told that «tumble weeds» of his undercoat were coming out! He’s shiny and gorgeous and looks like he has had a show dog grooming!
Another groomer gave my Persian a Lion’s Shave. She did an excellent job. She looks adorable.
When I came to pick up my furry family members, Andrea pointed out an issue she had discovered with my Persian: blotches on her skin and a lumpy mass on her tail. I appreciate that she noticed and told me: since Persians have skin issues, I now know to take her to the vet to find out what is going on.
Andrea also found a bald red spot on my dog’s back (such attention to detail!) and I explained that he had been attacked and bitten by another dog, which explains the bald patch. But she noticed and brought it to my attention!
I also want to mention that the lady who runs the front desk (Hillary) is great! The store is very busy and she multi-​tasks like a true pro!
I’ll be returning to Rocco and Jezebel for all future grooming of my beloved furry family members.

Amazing place great customer service big selection of merchandise warm friendly courteous staff definitely will be back

This is a friendly little pet-​supply store with decent prices; Olive usually drags me over here when we’re about to walk over the Brooklyn bridge.
They have competitive prices on pet foods; I needed to change my cats’ food recently – no grain, no chicken – and have been sampling different brands. I got a few cans of Weruva here the other day that my cats told me – as only cats can – was food of the gods. Turns out the price on them is about par with Whiskers in Manhattan, which probably has more buying power than this little hole-​in-​the-​wall shop.
I walked in with Olive the other day and said I [she] needed a martingale; somehow the one she had been wearing got misplaced. Well, they had a replacement, and it was only $ 10.
This is a great little store; I don’t mind being dragged here by Olive at all – and she always gets a cookie.

I was searching for a place to board our puppy for over two weeks and went here for a meet-​n-​greet/​interview. I liked the place, and they have a great selection of Fromm dog food. I’ve popped by a few times to pick up dog food and the woman who owns the store is really nice.
Well, we ended up finding friends to take care of our pup, so we didn’t go through with boarding her here.
Fast forward to a few months later, I needed a daycare solution. I made a call and unfortunately didn’t fill-​in any info when I had visited previously. They said they would call my vet to confirm that she’s up to date on her shots.
Dropping her off at 8:30am on a super rainy day was interesting. The staff member was less than friendly (though I’d chalk it up to being the first person through the door) and my pup had a mini freakout about being left there (she’s weird).
My other half picked her up later that evening and she was happy as a clam. I’d come back for daycare again.

Went today to get my Weims nails grinded and they did an excellent job! Really caring and knowledgeable people, Andrea gave me great tips to help out my dog.
And all their products are great, I trust whatever they recommend. So glad they are in my hood :)

We have been using Rocco and Jezebel for daycare and boarding for our hound since we rescued him in January. I can’t say enough positive things about their service or the people. Thanks to their recommendation, we’ve found a dog food that our picky boy will consistently eat. And I love how they give every pup a treat on the way out — our pup won’t walk home until he’s been indulged!
But most of all, our dog loves it there. If we let him lead the way on a walk, he walks us directly to R&J and won’t budge until we’ve gone in. (This has resulted in him not being allowed to lead the way after-​hours, since he’ll just sit there in front of their closed shop!) Can’t recommend them enough.

I have a 1 year old French Bulldog who means the world to me. In May 2014 I had to go away for 10 days. I was incredibly nervous about boarding my pup — she had never boarded before and had never slept away from home.
I thought about all of the options including getting someone to stay at my house or asking colleagues or friends to have her. In the end I steeled myself to board her because I thought that it would be good if she could get used to it and it wouldn’t put unfair pressure on friends because 10 days is a long time.
To test it out I left her at Rocco & Jezebel just for a day’s boarding. I was uneasy as I left her but when I returned I knew all would be well — they let me look at their TV monitor and I could see her lying in the middle of the floor, frog legged, looking very much at home.
That said, when we brought her to stay for ten days I was still very nervous about it all. I really needn’t have worried. On our second day away I received an email from Andrea with photos of our Frenchie and an update on which dogs she was making friends with. Throughout my trip away I received several more of these photos as well as videos of her playing — making full use of the sofas and the play area, running crazy and playing with other dogs.
But the best was yet to come — towards the end of my trip away I received a notice from Andrea saying that our little pup had come a little bit under the weather and so she had taken her home with her. Sure enough, our little Frenchie was sleeping on Andrea’s bed and having her food cooked by Andrea’s expert chef husband. They even called a vet to check that she was okay — she was fine.
I really can’t recommend Rocco & Jezebel highly enough. Lovely people who really care about the dogs in their care. I’d definitely take out little Frenchie back.

My dog hates being groomed but still loves Rocco & Jezebel. Go figure… they’re definitely doing something right. We can’t even walk past the storefront anymore because she drags us in. (Perils of a 100-​lb dog with a mind of her own…) We pick her up looking and smelling lovely with a cute little bandanna, too.
As far as boarding: my only extremely tiny and nitpicky complaint is that there isn’t a lot of flexibility with Sunday pickup. (11:30 or 4:30). Otherwise they’re very easy to work with and our dog loves it. She always has a blast hanging out with her friends. Have not used daycare but I think they hang out with the boarders so I assume everyone’s having a party together.
We did a TON of research when moving into BK Heights with our dog and couldn’t be happier with R&J and the whole team there, so hopefully this review saves you some time. (I could read and analyze Unilocal reviews for hours, personally, but your mileage may vary.)

I take both my dogs there and highly recommend it to anyone I meet. The grooming is always spot on, they smell clean but not like perfume like other groomers. I like that they are honest about what they can do with your dog (since not all dogs are easy to groom). The store also has an incredible selection of products and treats/​food. I think I could spend the whole time there shopping while my dog is getting groomed. Bottom line they will be my only groomer and the only place I will recommend!

Took my 9 month pomeranian (Darwin) this afternoon to Rocco and Jezebel’s for the the first time. Since we got there we were greeted with friendly staff… they also took time to meet Darwin so he won’t freak out. (Pomeranians can be somewhat unfriendly!). When I came back to pick him up I found him playing with the other dogs and the staff and it almost seemed like he didn’t want to leave! His coat looks amazing and I will definitely bring him back!

Love, love, love!
I work at a local vet clinic, and finally listened to my co-​worker who kept insisting that I needed to take my little guy here when I expressed my unhappiness with my (then) groomer. I wish I had listened sooner!
I was the first appointment of the day when I took my little guy in at 10. They told me it would probably be about 2 hours, but to call to make sure everything was done before I headed back over. I called around 11:45 and was told that he was being very feisty, so the groomer asked for more time. I had no problem with that – I know my little man can be fiery, and I want him to look his best, so if they needed all day I would have happily let them keep him.
I showed back up around 1 and he was done – and looked FABULOUS! Unfortunately he had freaked out when they turned the clippers on and they had to scissor cut him entirely, but they weren’t perturbed or upset by it. They even laughed as they told me the story about how he grabbed the comb from the groomer’s hand and flung it across the room in a mini temper-​tantrum.
Andrea and Hillary were both very patient with my numerous questions, and the entire vibe of the shop is pleasant and professional. I will definitely be taking my little man in for numerous more grooms there. They also have a fabulous selection of holistic pet food, toys, beds, clothes, bowls, litter – you name it, they probably have it. Definitely will be recommending many more people to go here!

I just got home from spending an hour and a half introducing my timid little dachshund to the daycare/​boarding space and the staff at Rocco & Jezebel. Andrea really takes her time to observe the temperament of your dog and gives it time to warm up and feel comfortable with the space before taking it on as a new family member.
I say that because it’s absolutely without a doubt true — these guys treat your pet like family. I’ve never seen so much genuine care and passion when it comes to this stuff, and it’s not a pretentious pampering of your pet, it’s straight up compassion and love for your pet. By the end of our visit, my dog even sat relatively calm as Andrea trimmed her nails — something I have NEVER seen before in the 8 years I’ve had her. I watched her as she came out of her timid little shell and wagged her tail, drank from the water bowl and even let out a few playful barks toward another dog.
We’re going away next weekend and I know my dog will be really well cared for. I’m even considering their daycare service now!
As a store, they carry unique items and healthy food and treats. I witnessed them greet every single person who walked in there by name — it’s a really great shop all around and it’s impossible to run out of good things to say about them. I’m so excited to have found them — definitely my new dog place!

Miracle workers. Honestly, I don’t know how these guys do what they do, but they’re amazing at it.
We’ve brought our 2-​year old wheaten terrier here a few times now and are more impressed with each experience. In all honesty, our angelic pup is a seemingly impossible pain to groom– super anxious, jumpy, etc. But they take their time with her (5 hours+!) and do an amazing job. I cannot recommend them enough.
I’ll never go anywhere else. (See before and after pictures of Jameson… unbelievable)
