On Broadway near the 46th Street R/M
train station sits Vitality Health Pets, or the
nirvana for your furry companion. The cozy
shop teems with healthy, affordable food
choices for animals; cute and squeaky toys;
and grooming supplies. The shop supplies
dry, wet and raw food and lets any animal
owner use the self-wash station for their pet.
“Vitality Health Pets fits very well in our
neighborhood for many reasons,” owner
John Sierros said. “With the closing of all Petlands
recently, there are barely any tangible
stores that you can walk in and buy anything
from toys to food. Everything is online! You
don’t know how products look or feel. Basically
it’s blind shopping. We provide a real
experience.”
The business may have just opened up
nine months ago, but it has everything you
need for your canine and cats. All of the
employees are also well-versed in anything
four-legged.
“I have five dogs myself and the manager
Catherine has one and our secondin
command David has two. We are animal
people. My background is training
working dogs and obedience training. I
own Vitality Market across the street and
always wanted to open up a pet shop to
fill the gap there is in the industry,” Sierros
said.
After a long day of walking and sniffing
through the neighborhood and playing
in one of western Queens’ lovely parks,
any pup would love to get a nice bath,
courtesy of Sierros and his staff, and a
yummy organic treat at the end of the
day.
