For more than 130 years, Costikyan Carpet has defined excellence in the world of luxury flooring and textile care. Founded in 1886, the company stands as one of the only truly full-service carpet firms in the country — a distinction earned through generations of meticulous work and an unwavering commitment to quality.
Costikyan does far more than clean rugs. The company sells premium broadloom and custom carpets, installs wall-to-wall flooring, fabricates bespoke pieces, and restores antique and heirloom rugs. Its specialists clean and maintain carpets, fine area rugs, upholstery, marble, and natural stone. From sourcing and design consultation to fabrication, installation, and long-term care, Costikyan manages the full lifecycle of luxury surfaces.
Its client roster reflects that rare expertise. Costikyan works with many of the nation’s top interior designers and is among the most sought-after companies in the high-end superyacht industry, where precision and discretion are paramount. Its clients include celebrities, professional athletes, team owners, and leaders from across the Fortune 500. In residences and vessels where expectations are exacting, Costikyan’s reputation rests on trust.
Yet for all its prestige and longevity, the company’s legacy is not defined solely by luxury.
It is also defined by heart.
Through its philanthropic initiative, Costikyan Cares, Costikyan has partnered with Big Dog Ranch Rescue to create a program that removes barriers to adoption and gives deserving dogs a stronger start in their new homes.
A PROGRAM BUILT ON COMMITMENT
Costikyan Cares is not a symbolic sponsorship. It is a structured, ongoing commitment.
The company pays 100 percent of the adoption fee for every dog in its sponsored group. In addition, Costikyan provides one full year of dog food along with preventative flea, tick, and heartworm medication. By covering these essential first-year expenses, the program significantly reduces the financial burden many families face when adopting.
The impact is practical and immediate. Veterinary prevention alone can represent a meaningful annual cost. Food, particularly for large-breed dogs, adds up quickly. By eliminating these expenses during the first year, Costikyan Cares makes adoption more accessible while helping ensure that dogs transition into stable, well-supported homes.
Meredith Bruder, board member of Big Dog Ranch Rescue, explains why this kind of partnership is so impactful.
“When a respected, long-standing company steps forward in such a tangible way, it changes outcomes,” Bruder says. “Covering adoption fees and first-year essentials removes hesitation for many families. It allows people to focus on the connection with the dog rather than the cost. That support saves lives.”
For Lauree Simmons, CEO and founder of Big Dog Ranch Rescue, corporate partnerships are essential to sustainable rescue work.
Rescue doesn’t end when a dog is saved. Every dog that comes through our ranch requires medical care, vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, microchipping, preventative care, food, rehabilitation, and often lifesaving critical surgeries, Simmons says. “Partnerships like Costikyan Cares strengthen our mission and help set our adopters and our dogs up for long-term success. Together, we’re working to ensure every dog has the best possible chance at a forever home.”
A DIFFERENT KIND OF FULL SERVICE
Costikyan’s full-service philosophy has long set it apart in the flooring industry. Clients rely on the company not only to install beautiful materials, but to maintain and protect them for years to come. The relationship does not end after installation; it continues through cleaning, restoration, and ongoing stewardship.
Costikyan Cares reflects that same long-term mindset.
The company is not simply facilitating adoptions. It is investing in the success of those adoptions. By covering critical first-year expenses, Costikyan ensures that families and dogs have a stable foundation during the most important adjustment period.
That commitment mirrors the precision and responsibility that define the company’s work with designers, yacht builders, and high-profile homeowners. Excellence, in this case, is measured not by square footage or fiber quality, but by lives changed.
HOW THE COMMUNITY CAN PARTICIPATE
For readers inspired by this initiative, involvement is straightforward. Prospective adopters can visit the Costikyan Cares website to view the current roster of sponsored dogs. Those interested in meeting them can connect directly with Big Dog Ranch Rescue. Because adoption fees and first-year essentials are fully covered, families can focus on building a bond rather than calculating expenses. Supporters can also contribute to Big Dog Ranch Rescue through donations, volunteering, or fostering” efforts that expand the rescue capacity to save additional animals.
A LEGACY THAT REACHES FURTHER
Costikyan Carpet has spent more than a century preserving beauty inside some of the most remarkable homes and yachts in the world. It has earned the trust of designers, executives, athletes, and celebrities by delivering impeccable service and standing behind its work.
Through Costikyan Cares, it is extending that same reliability and integrity beyond luxury interiors and into the community.
In doing so, the company demonstrates that true legacy is not measured only by longevity or prestige. It is measured by impact.
By removing financial barriers, sponsoring designated dogs, and investing fully in their first year of care, Costikyan Cares is helping ensure that more families experience the joy of adoption — and that more dogs experience the stability of a permanent home.
That is craftsmanship of a different kind.
And it may be the company’s most meaningful work yet.
