Vitality Health Pets Dog Daycare Astoria

Best boarding place in town with spacious indoor and outdoor space, super clean.John and his staff are highly trained and passionate about what they do.My dogs love them.

This place is great - we bring our puppy @jodiebluestaffy to Vitality once a week for socializing sessions (yes, that is her instagram handle - no shame there am I right LOL). John and the rest of the crew are amazing and they take great care of our pup. She gets so excited when we pass by the store and always jumps at the chance to get her wiggly butt in there to see all her friends!

We’ve been bringing both our pups here for a couple months for daycare and it’s our favorite daycare ever! John and his staff as so professional while also being extremely friendly and make us feel right at home. The daycare area is clean and the dogs are always happy and tired out when they come home and it’s made a massive difference in their personalities. They have an outdoor area a well to let the dogs roam, and our pups never come home smelling “like dog”. They also send pictures of both pups for updates while they are at daycare! I would highly recommend anyone looking for a good, reliable place to trust with their pets!

We got two Dalmatian puppies from Georgia and we were looking for guidance and our first pick was Vitality Pets. Wanted to shop a little more and see what other schools offered and hands down Vitality pets was the best. First, Jon was able to sit down with us and discuss our puppies and what our goals were. He gave us a free consultation when he didn’t have to and no other puppy school or service had done that. Everyone wanted money up front. Second, the place has everything you need for your pet. Brand names, quality treats and food and not just for your pup but other animals as well. We decided to go with Vitality Pets because I genuinely feel he helps us train our puppies better. In reality he trains us first and then the puppies. Great facility, clean, awesome service and best dog trainer you can find.

I booked an initial session with the owner John. I feel that customers paying for a service and entrusting a stranger with their loved companion have every right to ask questions and be as thorough as possible so they can feel comfortable and confident they are in the right hands. When I started asked questions to hear more about the training style and philosophy since there wasn’t much info on the website, the owner became defensive and said that no trainers have information on their website (not true) and he never mentioned any training certifications.The training style is not positive reinforcement-based and uses prong collars, which I felt wasn’t the right fit for my small breed dog who has been responding really well to positive reinforcement training so far. I came ready to pay for this session so I did appreciate the advice John gave me for free, but overall it was a stressful and uncomfortable experience that left me feeling not great.

My sweet Pit mix/mutt Harper was rejected from other day cares because of her breed appearance but I am so glad for it because she loves day care here! We use it only incidentally but every time she comes home happy and a tired and when we go back she gets excited to be there. No better judges of character than dogs. Plus, they’re adorable and clearly love the dogs. Thank you!

Great store! My two pups love the raw food! Great selection of items for your pups and your kittens!! Garvin and John are great trainers who are helping us train our 5 month old and 9 month old puppies! I definitely recommend this store. My girlfriend and I drive from Inwood all the way to the store just to get food and train!

Just came for my first training lesson for my puppy who needs some obedience training because he needs some correcting. I learned so much today, the trainer is very professional and listens to your concerns. The k9 training Facility is very clean and huge! Not only does he teach your pup but also teaches you on how to correct your pet! I’m looking forward for the next lesson! :)

Do you love your dog? You need to get here. This is the place!!! What we found here is nothing but amazing. Katherine gave us excellent customer service. She was knowledgeable in many products and health topics. Best quality food for your pets and they have a large selection. Best prices in all of NYC. The self wash dog station is a unique concept that is convenient and actually fun!

David at Vitality Health is incredible! He has wonderful advice and insight for our furry friends. When I brought my kitten in for a bath he was patient, kind, and attentive even staying late to make sure my cat was as comfortable as possible throughout the process. He even taught me some grooming tips to try at home. We can’t thank you enough for your kindness and above and beyond care and service!! We will definitely be coming back!

Best day care/pet store in Astoria. My puppy gets so excited staying there. They have dedicated person who takes care of the dogs the entire day. The space is very large (indoor) and a large court yard outdoors. The care for our dogs like its their own. It gives me comfort knowing he is there, well taken care of and happy. The price is very affordable compering to other day care places in the area. The store is also very well stoked with verities of choices from food to care product etc.. Its a one stop pet shop for us!!! Oh, yes.. the staff is simply AMAZIN!!!

Love it! Super helpful and friendly staff, we had a great time

I love this place! Very clean & stocked with everything. The prices are fine & I buy favorite items that are on sale. The owner & staff are friendly, knowledgeable and caring. Best neighborhood pet place around!

Great place to get everything you need for your puppers (and cats too, but thats not my thing), including advice or a bath! Many well kniwn brands of dry food as well as freeze dried and raw options. Great people.

Wash your own dog section in back. You can use their products towels blow dryer brush everything with no pressure to buy anything. The dog even gets a biscuit and a handkerchief for free...

I love this place. They will order what you need, and the prices are comparable to online options (non-subscription). Friendly, personable staff.

I could not find a better place to take care of my dog ​​🐕 the employees are very friendly and take care of my pet as if it were their own

David and Katherine are very knowledgeable and friendly! Im glad I found this place. Its a pleasure doing business with them.

This place opens at 11am, not 10 like Google lists....except there’s a line of people waiting at 11:10am today because no one is inside the store. The employee isn’t here. So unprofessional, not a way to run a business. Been waiting in the cold for a half hour. Will never come here again.

Stopped by not knowing their services changed, the guy was stand offish and real rude- not welcoming in the slightest wouldn’t try to answer my questions and was quick to dismiss the conversation, do better next time.

Great place, very clean, kind and helpful staff.

Amazing people making phenomenal effort. Katherine help me out a lot

John is the best trainer around. Very professional!

Very expensive wanted to speak to the groomer but they said they did not have time they were having coffee and i should come back another time

Very Nice Shop with alot of nice brands, like TickledPet..

The staff was helpful answr all the questions and we got some cbd oil for calm our dog.

Open again, great food

Love this place really friendly and willing to help

This place is just wonderful. I stopped in by chance while running an errand in the neighborhood. I live in Brooklyn and I would absolutely drive 30 minutes to Astoria just to shop here. The clerk (owner?) was so kind, they had exactly what I needed (walnut shell cat litter and an assortment of canned goods for my jerky new cat), and the prices were even better than online (and I didnt have to wait 2 days just to have the package stolen off my stoop).Even if they were more expensive it would still be worth it just to shop local, but when theyre local AND nice AND cheaper its just a total no brainer...Citizens of Astoria, please support this great shop!

Small place nice selection of good quality food but no groomer
