About Gowanus

Doggy daycare in Gowanus, what it actually looks like

Gowanus is the rapidly-changing industrial-loft neighborhood between Park Slope and Carroll Gardens, anchored by the Gowanus Canal (a Superfund site under cleanup) and the recent wave of luxury condo developments along 3rd and 4th avenues. Mix of warehouses, converted lofts, and newer family-tower inventory.

Gowanus sitters skew younger and creative-industry with substantial loft and condo inventory. The breed mix tilts toward rescue-heavy with a strong Lab and Pit-mix presence. Brooklyn Bridge Park is a 15-min walk; Prospect Park 10-min east. Pricing mid-range Brooklyn.
