Awful service and practices. We paid with one card and the store didn't take it. Then they made use a different card, then 5 minutes later the first card goes through. They didn't want to refund us. Very bad customer service... I'm going to be calling corporate for this. It wasn't a small amount either. Be careful…

Puedes encontrar un catálogo amplio de articulos para tu mascota, que cubre prácticamente cualquier necesidad (perros, gatos, aves, reptiles, peces y pequeños mamíferos). En mi caso yo buscaba un cono para mi gatito de 7 meses.

My two dogs came in for baths for the first time away from home. They behaved so well and showed no signs of anxiety! I was beyond pleased with how lovingly my dogs were treated! The price was reasonable for the amount of time and special treatment they received. It was so worth it that I will continue to take them in the future!

Response from the owner · 2 months ago

Hi Lilia, we're thrilled that your dogs felt comfortable during their first visit and that the care they received left a positive impression. Personalized attention for every pet is central to our mission. We can't wait to welcome you and your pups back!
