I was recommended him my girl's old vet in Queens who didn't do visits in Manhattan and I cannot begin to say how lucky we are to have found him. I have been to so many vets over the years with my fur babies, some who look at you like a checkbook, to the point of telling me "maybe you should go elsewhere" when her nerves got the best of her (I'm looking at you Animal Medical Center) and others who put the needs of the animal above all else. He not only put my Leia's needs front and center but his care and compassion for the pet's companions, I can't say we're owners, was above and beyond. He gave my girl five more good years of life. Dealt with all my stupid questions and emails with patience and care. And he was here to gently ease her on her way. Anyone who needs a vet to take care of their furbaby. Please reach out to him. You can not find better.

They make everything so easy for me -- they do both pick-up and drop-off (only $10 each way on weekdays and $30 on weekends!), which is huge when I'm working long or weird hours and can't get home in time. They also literally have everything I could ever need in one place: daycare, boarding, veterinary care, and grooming. Peach has boarded with them before and it went perfectly. And the grooming? They do it while she's already at daycare and then drop her off at home clean and fluffy, so I come home to a happy, tired, freshly groomed dog. It's the most convenient thing ever. The grooming prices are very reasonable and the quality of the grooming is the best she's had (and we've tried MANY groomers). They're incredibly responsive over text and email, which I appreciate when I'm at work and can't call. And one of my absolute favorite parts: the daily report card and photos of my dog every single day so I know exactly how she's doing. Plus they have a live webcam you can access from anywhere -- I check in on Peach from work all the time and it always makes my day. I truly can't recommend Strut Your Pup enough. They treat my dog like family and make my life as a busy dog mom so much easier.

Maybe the problem lies in their definition of a "walk" and mine. I asked that the daily 30 minute activity be a walk, which they charge $25.00 for. If my dog doesn't have at least one "walk" per day, his digestive system shuts down. I walk him 3 miles per day to keep him regular, but expected at least one walk, on leash, to minimize the affects on him. I also expected a stress response but when they sent me a picture of him on day 2, I knew he was in trouble. Joe, the GM, called me after I sent an email discussing my disappointment and we had a productive conversation, and I had decided not to do this review. But then Robin, the owner called, to justify that they did nothing wrong and actually tried to blame it on my dog. That changed it for me. I'm sure if you have a dog with no special needs that they are fine, but beware if you have a dog that isn't normal. Make sure you talk to Joe so he understands what you expect from the visit and you may have a better outcome than mine.

He is communicative, caring, and has a great bedside manner. It is clear he truly cares about his patients and their owners. He gave my dog his wellness checkup last year. On the other hand and unfortunately, unfortunately, there are absolutely NO good things I can say about Dr. Schoenhut. She didn't return calls on two occasions despite our reaching out multiple times and being told things like, "oh she'll call in in 30 mins;" "oh, she was supposed to return your call after lunch;"; "I'll remind her again in just a minute;" "She's currently in with another pet but she'll reach out before she leaves (which she didn't). It took three more calls the next day (with similar excuses) before she called after the practice had closed for the day. I had brought my dog in for a number of reasons because he had a lot of muscle and overall weight loss in a very short period of time, could no longer jump up onto even the couch, his face had become gaunt, and his face and body (particularly the former) had been turning gray very quickly. Based on his condition, I was pretty sure that he had cancer. I've attached two pictures. The first is what he looked like during his wellness exam with Dr. Nolan about 8-ish months before I came back. The second is what he looked like the month after the exam by Dr. Schoenhut. He wasn't quite as wasted away at the time she examined him, but it wasn't much better. After Dr. Schoenhut examined him, she ordered a number of tests. When the results came in, she started breezing through things without defining the medical terms. I had to stop her, asked her to break it all down, and what it all meant. I asked her to explain the results and just to be straight with me if it looked like it was cancer--particularly because of the way he looked. She was kind of vague, talking about how certain markers *might* indicate the presence of cancer, and then recommended other tests that could be performed--including something like bone-marrow extraction--that would have cost over (if I'm remembering correctly) about $3,000 to $3,500 if we wanted to be 100% certain. I later learned that one of the markers on my dog's original test was in the 9,000 range but normal was in the 300 range, and that plus another elevated marker, together with his physical condition as shown in the picture below were sufficient to diagnose the presence of cancer without the need for the other really expensive tests In both visits Dr. Schoenhut--unlike Dr. Nolan--made me feel like she was just rushing through the appointment to get onto the next appointment. Literally the worst vet experience I've ever had in the 21+ years I've been a dog owner. But for the fact that Dr. Nolan and the staff are so great, I'd have rated the business no higher than 2 stars. If you do choose this practice, make sure you ask for and get Dr. Nolan.

Called this place after doing an extensive search for a decently rated pet ER (not many around me). I am so thankful there is at least one, and they're open 'round the clock. Was placed in an examination room and was seen fairly quickly by a tech for vitals, followed by the vet (I swear I tried so hard to remember her name to give her a personal shout out but stress took away my memory). She was awesome. Thorough and caring. While nothing appeared to be an evident emergency, my cat was clearly suffering from something hurting him. Recommended course of action seemed slightly excessive, but this vet truly stepped up to help me out. I consented to an xray, which indicated constipation. Treatment included sub-q hydration, anti-nausea medication, and a laxative. Cat had never been poked and prodded so much in his life. But he was such a good boy, and thankfully never bit or scratched- just growled and hissed. I would have too, little buddy!! I truly, sincerely appreciate knowing my boy doesn't have any bowel obstruction or anything worse. Great relief that we'll manage with the laxative and hopefully he'll be good as new. Thank you to the Vet Tech and the assistant who were both so helpful and supportive (and whose names I also forgot). Great team. I really, really love that every staff member called my boy "friend" and treated him like their own.

***WARNING - DO NOT GO HERE WITH ANY EMERGENCIES***…read moreIncompetent, apathetic, PE-owned ER that will actually significantly increase the odds your pet dies. My 3-month-old cockapoo ate a thin thong. We were at VEG Flatiron within 10 minutes of ingestion. Only one other animal was in the facility, stable and being monitored. We were the only active case. What should have been a routine emetic-then-scope visit became a six-hour ordeal across two VEG locations. It took roughly an hour to get the first dose of apomorphine. Staff were audibly socializing and gossiping about parties rather than working. We paid upfront. When the first emetic failed, we waited another 40 minutes for a second dose, not for any clinical reason, just because nobody was prioritizing the case. When emesis failed, the vet recommended endoscopic retrieval. We agreed immediately and paid $6,000 upfront. We then waited over an hour to begin. When I asked about the delay, staff were socializing and the vet was on his phone. They were "waiting for someone to come help." When they finally induced anesthesia on a 3-month-old puppy and attempted the scope, the endoscope did not work. They kept him under while calling the manufacturer's support line on speakerphone in front of us, where the agent's first question was, verbatim: "Have you tried making sure the machine was on? That was the issue last time." That level of incompetence is truly hard to believe. They re-dosed anesthesia three times troubleshooting equipment that had failed before and that nobody had checked. They gave up and transferred us to VEG UES, promising the scope there was prepped and ready (It wasn't). They offered to cover the Uber (They didn't). At UES, the nurse re-weighed him and re-took his temperature, procedures just performed an hour earlier. We waited over another hour. When I asked the receiving vet whether VEG Flatiron had transferred his anesthesia drug history, critical information for safely re-inducing a puppy who had already been under that night, the answer was no. Nothing had been transferred between two locations of the same company on the same EMR. The vet said she would "get those records." After nearly two hours with a catheter still in my puppy's arm, I went to ask for an ETA. A nurse was rude to me. It was clear my asking the question is what prompted them to actually start prepping. They had not been working on it. When they finally induced him and started the scope, the second endoscope also did not work. The vet asked her tech if he had checked the machine beforehand. He said yes. He had not. Here is what saved my dog: the attending vet at VEG UES is genuinely skilled. She performed the retrieval without insufflation, improvising around equipment her team failed to verify, and got the underwear out because it was bright red and still in the stomach. She is the only competent person in this story. After retrieval, while my puppy was still under anesthesia, the team continued troubleshooting the broken scope, testing equipment on my dog's anesthesia time. Then their computer crashed. After ten minutes of watching them reboot their app while my puppy remained under, I told them to stop. We never got a complete gastric examination because insufflation never worked. We accepted that risk because it was lower than letting them keep him under any longer. My puppy is fine. This review is not about a bad outcome. It is about the fact that the outcome was almost catastrophic, and would have been if the foreign body had migrated past the pylorus during one of the many unjustified delays, at which point we would have been looking at emergency surgery on a 3-month-old with materially higher mortality risk. The pattern across both locations: two broken endoscopes in the same chain on the same night. Equipment not verified before induction of anesthesia, twice. No transfer of anesthesia records between sister locations. Staff socializing and gossiping about parties while a critical case waited. Three rounds of induction agents on a 3-month-old puppy for a procedure that was never properly completed. $6,000 collected upfront for a service that was never fully delivered. This is not bad luck. It is structural and intentional. VEG is a private-equity-owned chain selling consumer-friendly branding - but under the surface is hiring too few of the cheapest, most apathetic staff, and clearly not maintaining their equipment. This is Private Equity 101. Cut costs, raise prices, shove it down the consumer's throat. The positive reviews here are from people who came in with simple (often non ER) cases any clinic could handle. DO NOT GAMBLE WITH A REAL EMERGENCY. This is not my final action with this company, but I am warning anyone and everyone I can with an animal, to never go to this ER. They don't care and they will significantly increase the odds that your pet dies. We just got lucky.

On the morning of Wednesday January 7th our almost 20 year old cat Oreo passed at home after a long…read morebout of Kidney Failure. We knew that we wanted to have her cremated as we had done we other pets that had passed through the years. We had dealt with another crematory in the past through our vet(s) and were nt happy with the recent reviews that they'd been getting. After some research we came upon your crematory and were happy with what we were reading about other people's experiences. We called that morning and spoke to Marisol who was very sympathetic, informative, and respectful. She gave us an appointment right away. We drove to them in Secaucus from Brooklyn and when we arrived Marisol met us at the door. She and Mariah were very polite, understanding, and accommodating. They took our Oreo and placed her on a bed surrounded by flowers and gave us some time alone to say our goodbyes. Marisol then waked us through the cremation process and showed us where it would be done and guaranteed us that it would only be Oreo's ashes that we would be receiving. We were given the opportunity to be present for Oreo's cremation. Ultimately Oreo's ashes were returned to us in less than 2 hours and were were able to bring her back home with us same day. They made this sad morning easier to get through. Along with Oreo's ashes we received a beautiful wooden box to keep her in with an engraved brass pate attached, a certificate allowing us to travel with her ashes, a wooden beaded bracelet, her paw print in clay with 2 gems attached, a stand for her paw print, a rose that lights up, and a notebook with the Rainbow Bridge poem on the cover. We were overwhelmed by all that we were given and the wonderful service that we were provided by Marisol and Mariah. We highly recommend Pet Rest in Peace to any loving pet owner.

They gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye, and they did it in the most humble and comforting way possible.
