Hoboken residents know that the Mile Square is one of the most dog-friendly areas in the Garden State. Just this morning, we rounded up over 50 dog-friendly businesses in town. To add to the local pet scene, a Hoboken-based dog grooming and pet care business is expanding its presence. Luv K9, which opened up on Washington Street just a few months back, will be opening a second Hoboken location at 614 Jefferson Street. Read on for what we know so far about Luv K9’s expansion in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Luv K9 is a dog grooming and pet care business that has had roots in the Mile Square since 2019. Per its website, the team is made up of Hoboken locals and pet owners that want to “change the approach of dog care in Hoboken, New Jersey.”
Luv K9 provides top-tier dog grooming, convenient pickup and drop-off services, and is appointment-only — with no walk-ins to ensure the safety and security of all pups. Its first dog grooming salon, Luv Kuts, opened up at 421 Washington Street in November 2024.
The spot also focuses on giving back to the community — since 2020, it has donated over 4,000 worth of dog kibble and other products to various dog shelters and rescues.
“At Luv K9 and Luv Kuts, we’re more than just a business; we’re your neighbors, a family, and a part of the Hoboken community. We live here. We work here. And we’re proud to call Hoboken home,” the website states.
