About Wolfie’s Place

Wolfie's Place works from 74 Jackie Robinson Pkwy and describes its purpose as creating happy and confident animals throughout NYC. What it provides is training, in-home Brooklyn boarding for dogs, cat sitting and bird care.

The training

One-on-one, positive, reward-based training, published at $75 per one-hour session. The stated aim is to work with the owner to get owner and dog into a happy, healthy relationship – which is a modest and accurate description of what an hourly private session can do.

In-home boarding, and why it interacts with the training

Boarding here is in a home rather than a kennel, with the stated benefit that the dog spends the stay with a gentle and confident pack, getting exercise and attention. For a dog who needs socialization more than obedience drills, time with settled dogs is itself the intervention. Overnight boarding is $65 a night, puppies $75, with a discounted day-boarding rate of $40 for overnight customers who need extra hours. Daily updates come by text or email.

The rest of the rate card

Pick-up and drop-off is $15 each way in Brooklyn and Queens and $25 in Manhattan, with a $15 charge for after-hours movements and no pickups before 8am. Baths are $10 using a hypoallergenic shampoo. Cat sitting is $24 a visit covering feeding, brushing, litter and play, with published supplements for additional cats and out-of-area travel. Bird boarding is $22 a night in Brooklyn only, and requires a recent health certificate from a vet – a detail that suggests the operation is careful about what it takes in.

Who runs it

The owner is named as Diana on the cat-care page. The site also publishes veterinarian interviews and an NYC resources section alongside its own services.
