Kenny has been walking our dog for more than 4 years.  We could not be happier.  Kenny loves our dog, has improved her temperament with people and we feel confident every day that he will take good care of her.  Kenny is extremely responsive and is someone that we can count on.  If you live in Brooklyn Heights you soon recognize that Kenny is part of the fabric that makes this neighborhood so amazing to live in.  Could not recommend Kenny more highly to take care of your dog —  Andrew D, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny and his entire team are wonderful. Kenny helped my bulldog overcome her fear of strangers that made it difficult for us to have walkers in the past. He introduced her to the rest of his team and she quickly formed an attachment to Lola and Aaron. I have peace of mind knowing a trusted team is there to look after my pup! Highly recommend Kenny, Lola, and Aaron — Jaclyn L, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny has been walking my extremely nervous and socially anxious rescue pitbull for a few months now and I couldn’t be happier with his service - Kenny consistently goes above and beyond to make sure my dog is comfortable as possible during their time together. He is extremely responsive and always sends videos during his walks and a report once the walk is over. My dog barely trusts anyone, but he trusts Kenny so that means a lot!! :) — Taylor F, Downtown Brooklyn

Kenny is a gem!  He is very reliable and always willing to help out if he can.  My dogs love him because he is very gentle and friendly with them.  He sends pictures and videos while the dogs are on their walk. He has made my life a lot easier as I know that I can go away at any time and not worry about the dogs. PS he also feeds the cat! — Josephine L, Brooklyn Heights

My fiancé and I moved to Brooklyn Heights last year with a 6 month old puppy who had (still has) tons of energy...Kenny was incredibly professional from the moment we met him - he spent time getting to know our dog and made sure we understood how his business worked. As first time dog owners, we feel so lucky to have found Kenny. He sends us videos of our dog while he’s on his daily walk, ensures he has safe interaction with other pups in the neighborhood, and alerts us if he notices anything off in his behavior or activity. He has truly helped our dog mature from puppy to “toddler” - teaching him great leash habits and enforcing good behavior...Kenny is completely trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely cares about dogs. We know our pup is in good hands with him and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in the neighborhood! — Meghan M., Brooklyn Heights

Kenny has been walking my dog for several years now.  My dog was hit by a car when we first got her and she is a scared dog.  Kenny is the only person she feels comfortable with beside my husband, and we've tried many different people. Some days, I can't even get her out the door, but she will always go with Kenny, since she feels safe with him. Kenny is so reliable and is always so good about communicating letting me know all the details of the walks and any other info he thinks I might want/need.  He truly loves dogs and will do anything for them.  He even rescued a dog that was about to be put down for aggressive behavior.   If you want a reliable caring dog walker, he is your man!! — SooYoung C, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny is a true professional, and an expert on dogs.  He leash trained our dogs when they were puppies, and has been such a helpful guide through the training process... What sets Kenny apart, though, is how much he cares for the dogs. Our Ham and Lucille just love him so much, and they get so excited to spend time with him, and perk up whenever they hear his name. It has given us great peace of mind to have our pups with Kenny, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog walker. — Edward C, Brooklyn Heights

We feel so lucky that our dog is able to spend time with Kenny everyday for her daily walks. Choosing a dog walker has always been difficult - our dog is in end stage kidney failure, and we needed to find a walker who was not only compassionate, but patient and willing to take that extra step to help our dog at any time. Kenny not only fit the bill, but has exceeded our expectations. He is incredibly knowledgeable about medical issues and has given us great advice. He sends us videos of our dog on her walks with detailed updates. He has been incredibly flexible with our revolving schedules. We appreciate Kenny so much, and we’re so thankful Brooklyn Heights has such a great dog walker who cares so much about dogs :) — Danielle C, Brooklyn Heights

I met Kenny 3 years ago.  He is an excellent dog walker.  I have observed him on several occasions walking his clients dogs and he really takes excellent care of them.  He really knows how to control the dogs and they love him.  I have met several dog walkers in the past 25 years but I have never met anyone like Kenny. I highly recommend him to all my neighbors and friends. — Deborah B, Brooklyn Heights

We were fortunate enough to find Kenny after dealing with another dog walker in the neighborhood who insisted on walking our dog with 5-10 other dogs at the same time. Because of this, our dog was having accidents. In the four years since we switched to Kenny, we’ve never had an issue. He takes the extra time to make sure our dog gets what he needs. Kenny loves our little boy as much as we do. Whenever we run into him on the street, our dog runs over excited to see him. Kenny is very dependable, gives us updates every day, and always helps out when we’re in a bind. Kenny is also a really great guy who I’m thankful to call a friend. — Mary-Kate T, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny Albert is AMAZING...Our dogs are mad about him and so are we. He has such a loving and intuitive sense with animals and is organized, conscientious, responsive, and honest. As a resident of Brooklyn Heights, he's extremely familiar with the Heights as well as the surrounding neighborhoods. Kenny is a fixture in the community and has become like a family member to us. The dogs' safety and comfort is always paramount to him and we never felt anything but 110% confident when our boys were in his care. I can't recommend him highly enough! —Jamie K, Brooklyn Heights

I first met Kenny about a year and ah half ago while walking my dog in the park a half breed pit bull and box terrier named Phantom. He noticed that my phantom was aggressive to other dogs as they walked by so he introduced himself and gave me some pointers on how to manage his behavioral aggression. The info Kenny shared was invaluable in changing how Phantom engages with other dogs. I've since given Kenny the job of walking phantom as a result of my busy schedule and I've received remarkable results with Kenny as Phantom's handler. There are dog walkers and then there's Kenny, a cut above the rest. Thank you Kenny.  —Alvin L, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny has been walking my dog Arthur for several years now. He's incredibly knowledgable about dogs and dog training. Arthur used to get scared easily and bark at people on the street but since Kenny started walking him, this behavior has gotten much better...Besides me and my family, Kenny is Arthur's favorite person and when we see him around the neighborhood Arthur's whole body and tail start to wag and is beyond excited to see him. I always know Arthur is in great hands when he's with Kenny. Arthur and I can't recommend Kenny and his dog walking services enough. —Nate T, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny has been walking my dog for several years now and is extremely dependable and knowledgeable about dogs.  Kenny clearly loves his animals and my dog lights up when she sees Kenny! I would highly recommend him to any dog parent new to the neighborhood! — Michelle L., Brooklyn Heights

Kenny Albert is very personable and very compassionate. He loves animals as if they were all his own. My dog Piper cannot wait to see him.  I have always believed a dog is the best judge of a person’s character; their instincts reveal who is a really good person and who is not. In this regard, all of the dogs would give Kenny an A+. I highly recommend Kenny and know you will not be disappointed. — Betsy W., Brooklyn Heights

We have an anxious little rescue pup named Pickles, and we knew it would be a challenge getting her settled and acclimated to beepy, shouty, truck-filled city life.  Kenny jumped right in, and from day one has been an amazing partner to us, and to Pickles. I Honestly, after just a few months, I really can't imagine a better experience. — Max B., Boerum Hill

Kenny is conscientious, responsible, responsive (always responds quickly to texts, emails, or phone calls), and cares so much about the dogs—really takes time to get to know them, their personalities and preferences, etc. He's experienced with all kinds of dogs and is a longtime Brooklyn Heights resident, so he knows the neighborhood and all the good walking routes like the back of his hand.  He gets my unequivocal vote for best pet caregiver ever. — Jamie K., former Brooklyn Heights resident (and original customer!)

We have been working with Kenny for over a year now.  We are afraid our dog Snoopy loves him more than he loves us (perhaps something to do with the goodies he hands out) Kenny is very reliable, prompt, and conscientious.  He is a miracle worker for our occasional dog walking and boarding needs...Kenny is absolutely awesome either for short walks or longer overnight stays.  If my dog sees him anytime when I am walking him, he goes crazy trying to get to Kenny. He is extremely responsive.  He also cares about your dog and he will tell you if he sees anything wrong with her. Highly recommended.  - Koray & Connie Y, Brooklyn Heights

Kenny’s been walking my dog Eli now for about 6 months and I am so happy with his service! Eli is a shy and anxious dog around other people, but Kenny knew right from the beginning how to gain his trust and I’ve been so grateful for his tips and expertise. —Mary O, Cobble Hill
