Spiffy Kitty Cat Grooming

Linda was great with my two kittens. She is very patient and worked gently with them. It was my kitties first time bathing and were a little afraid of water and blow dry, but Linda did a great job!

This is my first ever Unilocal review. That said, Linda is amazing. My boyfriend and I have used her once to clip our extremely nervous and skittish cat’s nails. It took a little time to get a hold of Max, but once that was done, Linda worked quickly and gently. My boyfriend and I are moving in a few weeks and plan to call Linda to help put Max in his carrier to make this stressful process as painless for everyone as possible. We don’t know how to thank her enough, but hoping a stellar Unilocal review helps get the message across!

Bottom line: I think Linda walks on water. I contacted Linda to set up regular grooming for our 20 year old cat, Albert. He was frail and not in the best of health and needed some help. Linda turned out to be a godsend. She is skillful, kind, reliable, and professional. She was ever so gentle and compassionate with Albert– it is obvious she loves cats. She kept his fur looking good, clipped his nails, and cleaned his ears and eyes for him. She gave him a warm bath bringing her special equipment with her and handling him ever so expertly. She even thoughtfully brought a cat toy for our other kitty so she would not feel ignored. There were a myriad small things Linda did to make Albert’s grooming sessions comfortable for him. She always explajned what she was doing and was even kind enough to provide me with guidance when I sent her anxious emails about Albert’s health. Linda was good for me as well as for Albert. Albert died today, after a long and rich life, and I could not think of a better way to honor him than to write about the person who did so much for him at the end of his life. Your cat would be fortunate indeed to have Linda care for him or her.

Recently my partner and I became proud parents of two siberian kittens. Linda of Spiffy Kitty came over to clip their nails and describe all the services she can provide. Linda’s warmth and confidence helped our one ‘shy’ kitten to be okay with the necessary handling ! Our other bold kitty unfortunately had an accident 6 weeks ago leaving her in a cast and 4 broken toes… Linda came in and helped us take care of her beautifully over these past 6 weeks like a perfect part time nanny ! She is incredibly responsible, caring, and trustworthy ! She is teaching us how to weekly groom these fuzzy girls and has great recommendations for their care. She is worth her weight in gold… and her prices for NYC house calls are very reasonable ! Take advantage you won’t regret it !!

Words cannot describe what the incredibly professional and compassionate services provided by Linda at Spiffy Kitty House Call Grooming and Cat sitting have done for my life — and the life of my cat! I am a first time cat parent, having adopted my Belle, abandoned on the Jersey shore a week before Hurricaine Sandy hit. How a dear traumatized cat is now becoming a sweet gentle Park Avenue kitty has been a joy to watch unfold. And I attribute the vast majority of her progress to Linda. Linda has been an invaluable educational resourse for me as well as literally making it possible
for me to give a home to my wonderful cat. I’m in Boston most weekends and Linda comes for Fri Sat Sun cat sitting sessions which include everything you can think of and more, from feeding, grooming, litter box maintenance, playing, and cuddling.
Whenever I schedule a mid week appointment, initially for education and training for ME, Linda is ALWAYS precisely prompt, incredibly skilled and experienced with all aspects of cat care — including nail trimming of a cat who at first was terrified because of her history — Linda was masterful in how she handled Belle for the safety and health of all. Linda is also completely trustworthy. She visits my apartment regularly for cat sitting when I’m out of town, and everything is left pristine and she is most gracious to the staff of the building. And most importantly for me, she calms my nerves by sending an email, photo and often video vignette of how the days session went and any concerns (dietary, behavioral, etc) noted.
I have tremendous gratitude and respect for Linda and I hope that Belle, her Auntie Linda and I will have a long relationship. Needless to say, my recommendation for Linda and her services is of the highest caliber imaginable.
