Everytime we go in, Frankie gets a very warm welcome and, of course, a treat. We can't even walk past the shop anymore without him pulling me to the door. We've gotten everything from his collar and his halter to his toys and dog food here. Before making stops in here, I would probably just get most of my dog things from a big box store like PetSmart but I love that I get to shop local and support a great shop like this. The best part? The thing that reminded me to finallyyyyy write my rave review?? The owner got dressed up as Santa one chilly Saturday a week or so ago and took photos with the pups in Hoboken! It is every dog parents dream that they didn't know they had. They even printed out photos for free and put them in a cute little envelope for us to take home. It was so wonderful and hysterical and was just the cutest little way to start the day. They've always been a favorite shop but they just easily took the #1 stop.

On Day 5 of my vacation as I visited a very dear friend for the Christmas and New Year holidays, she decided to take me on a walking tour of Historic Downtown Jersey City, and our first stop was at Fussy Friends Pet Supply. Apparently, the fluffy black beast loved this place, so since he came along we had to stop in. Since it was Christmas Eve, I figured a treat or two for the little fella would be cool. I already knew he was a fan of the place, but would the same be said for me!? PURCHASE Kong Squeakair Tennis Ball ($3.99): He loved tennis balls especially ones that squeaked and he already destroyed the previous ones before his move to the east coast, so this was a no-brainer to buy as a gift. Here he was Christmas morning on my chest showing his approval of his new toy https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=PBgTVj5o1MldBroAsTKEfQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Spot Farms Chicken Training Stix ($7.99): My friend said this was one of his favorite treats, so into my basket it went. I wasn't aware of this brand, but he liked it which was all I needed to know. Chewy Stick ($1.99): This was a purchase by default because as we walked around the shop, he grabbed this from a tray and started chopping away; you bite you buy https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=0uNkvJ4hxWe1zGqsFpWigA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! SERVICE Greeted by a friendly young gentleman behind the counter, we merely planned to roam around until we checked out, so we barely needed his service. All was good. PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance) We walked, so this wasn't an issue. However, I didn't notice any private lots or structures but there appeared to be plenty of parking along the main drag of Newark Ave. and all surrounding streets - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A small store filled wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling with a plethora of pet products of both well-known and small brands placed on the floor and shelves. It was a bit cramped for my liking as they definitely maximized every inch of square footage. The burning incense was a nice touch. Decent natural lighting came through the large front windows and door while minimal electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs, but chillout music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=y1uNQPunyybbD-v4KPmkfQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Temperatures were in the 40s, so I was bundled-up from head-to-toe. Otherwise, this place was totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Fussy Friends Pet Supply was cool and a nice option for your pet needs, but I felt the product inventory and selection were a bit lagging probably due to the size of the store (they were completely out of the wet food he liked). In addition, I didn't know if they provided other services such as grooming, training, and the like. I guess I was more used to the major chains of Petco and PetSmart along with some of the places in my neighborhood back in my hipsterhood. The prices and service were fine. And, it was always a pleasure to support small local mom & pop businesses like this one https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=-ENMHXDhfu0oQcQWfSt0FQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $14.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip).

After we met some friends for lunch, on our walk back to my friend's place, Rasputin decided to direct us towards and eventually into Jersey City Heights' Fussy Friends Pet Supply Central Ave. location. I've been to their downtown Newark Ave. location and somehow had no idea this closer location existed even though I've walked by it numerous times. Pet stores in general were always fun places to go into especially if you had your furry family friend with you. On this first visit, would our furry fussy family friend come way with an assortment of pet supplies!? PURCHASE Kong Squirrel Squeaky Toy ($15.99): A completely impulse buy for my shared pandemic lil black beast. He had more than enough toys and hardly played with any except for a handful of them. He loved to chase squirrels in the park, on walks, and in the backyard, so I thought he'd get a kick out of this. Nope; he preferred the real thing - oh well! Nulo Freestyle Wet Food 5.5oz Can ($2.99 x3): This had become his favorite wet food brand, and it was recently his birthday, so I figured to spoil and treat him a bit. As expected, he lapped every bit of it up! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=HMWEryeSakVH8EvPyVnV0A SERVICE We only saw a lone friendly woman behind the register as she handled customers before it was our turn. Although we didn't have any intentions of buying anything, it was hard to deny the doggie. She easily and quickly rang us up, and we were off on our way - woof!

They also have many other specialty shrimp of all colors (neocaridina and more), and fancy guppies and betta, all healthy and vibrant. Worth a visit if you're an advanced aquarist.

This explains why i rarely go on a real vacation Whenever i have gone away i have been fortunate to have someone stay in my home with him. I moved back here 3 months ago and had a chance to go away last weekend BUT...what to do about my kid? I dont have a sitter yet and friends and family are too far away to stay over. Boarding him was NOT an Option. I found BCC and reached out to Dania. She was totally amazing! Came to the house to meet J - we went for a walk together so she could see what a brat he is and she told me about her company and the sitters who work for her. To say Dania LOVES animals is an understatement. U can tell how passionate she is about their well-being and you just know that she would never have anyone on her staff that she wouldn't trust to take care of her own kids. Mind you this was only 3days before i was hoping to go away. I asked if she would be able to accommodate and she didnt even blink! She set up meet and greets for me with a couple of her sitters and they were both awesome. Kimberly is the one who drew the short straw with J . I hope shes ok but i can report that She spoiled him more than i do! She even let him sleep with her and he IS a blanket hog Dania and Kimberley were super respectful of my home AND Dania's is the first sitter service i've had that provided me a copy of her insurance and DL as well as the girls'. I didnt even need to ask. Kimberley walked J in the am gave him breakfast returned for midday walk then back for dinner, walk and bedtime. She even fed my chatty cockatiel AND washed dishes WHAT??? Dania Kimberley and I were in contact through the weekend via text and Kimberley sent several pics of THE KING! BCC also offers daily walks which we will be using on days I need to be in the office. Payment is easy - Dania sends invoice and offers several ways to pay (we used Paypal). Now that i've found BCC im going to be taking more vacations!!! As for J? He keeps hinting that he cant wait until i go away again - hes staring at my suitcase as i write this review. Thanks Dania!!
