I order the 2lb package every 2-3 months and it is always delivered extraordinarily quickly. I recently re-ordered, but when I received the credit card authorization, I realized I had accidentally ordered about 8 extra items. I immediately texted to ask to have the merchandise removed. I had barely finished closing my laptop when I received credit for what I had accidentally ordered. That is customer support at a level rarely seen! I now consider myself a lifelong customer.

The main guy helping customers was very knowledgeable and answered my numerous questions about setting up an aquarium with plants, invertebrates, and fish. As this was my purpose of visiting, I can't comment on the other animals and supplies they have, but they have a huge variety of fish, the vast majority of which seem to be doing well. Although the prices of the fish and plants are a bit higher than corporate ones, the fish are supposedly from a better source and healthier, and it's a local business. I got lots of product recommendations that I'll be buying later. I'd definitely recommend checking this place out for any of your aquarist needs!

I was looking to set up my aquarium with live plants, small fish, shrimp, and snails, so this…read morereview will mainly focus on that. I'd been to another Petco and pet store, and I was happy to find this location had the largest variety of plants, decor, shrimp, and snails. When I went, they didn't seem to have many guppies (at least I wasn't shown them), and they didn't have any endler guppies at all (healthier less inbred than regular guppies). I ended up getting a few different plants and so far they seem to be doing fine. The staff member/aquarist Grace was very knowledgeable and friendly. She patiently answered all my questions, and I could tell she was passionate about taking care of the fish and plants. I separately had placed an order online for pick up, and she forgot to include an item, but I managed to get a refund on the product. Overall, I think this place has many strengths in having a variety of aquarium and plant supplies, plenty of live plants and snails, different colored shrimp, and seemingly every other fish except endlers. The staff I interacted with were friendly and very helpful. I thought the place was as clean as it could be although there's definitely a strong pet smell. If you order pick up, double check all your items are there.

The staff there is so kind; they love Bennett and greet him so warmly every morning, and he cannot leave without saying goodbye to every employee before he leaves each afternoon. When Bennett gets groomed, his black fur shines, and he always has a seasonal bandana when he's done. Furthermore, the supplies sold in the store are so up to date in terms of current trends, and the treats and supplies are mostly raw or using minimal and pronounceable ingredients that are sustainably sourced.

I said I am sorry am I very early and she looked at her watch and said it's 10:07 - you'll need to wait a bit like I was there an hour early. I then asked how long until he will be ready and they said around 3-4 hours. I called to check on him after that time and they had no update on him. Then their phone lines were down so I went in and they let me know he was up next on the grooming table but didn't have an exact time. At 4 pm he was finally ready and they let me know they brought him out to go to the bathroom( plus for them but I'd hope so as he had been there awhile!) I got there as soon as I could and my dog looked upset. The groomer came out and said how she couldn't do my dog's face because he was biting and thrashing and I should look into anxiety meds for grooming. I have personally seen my dog groomed and been told by every groomer in the past that he is a joy to groom. He went to puppy training classes and is always a calm dog in these situations. I let them know it must be something they had done or triggered to make him react that way because I have never seen my dog bite, he's a very sweet boy. They also claimed he was in " bad shape" and shamed me for his hair yet he was given a bath and brushed by a professional a week before this groom. I went back in because I was so upset by this experience and the staff and they just continued to blame my dog. Regardless, for an upscale dog grooming establishment they should be able to accommodate dogs for this price. Horrible experience- I have not written a Yelp review in a long time but I needed to for this. $95 before tip for this and they didn't offer an apology or anything but just blamed my dog.

I had a very disappointing experience with this grooming service…read more I clearly provided instructions about the areas that were allowed to be trimmed on my dog Yeiko, and I specifically did NOT authorize shaving sensitive areas such as his belly or ears. Unfortunately, those instructions were not followed and the final result was extremely upsetting. Yeiko is not only my pet, he is my emotional support dog, and seeing him returned with areas shaved that I never approved has caused me significant stress and anxiety. As a pet owner, you trust professionals to handle your animal with care and to respect the instructions you provide. Although the company later acknowledged that the grooming did not meet their own finishing standards and offered a refund, the damage has already been done and I now have to wait for his coat to grow back. I also requested verification of the training or certification of the individual who performed the grooming, which is important when trusting someone with your pet's safety and care. Pet owners deserve transparency, professionalism, and respect for their instructions. Unfortunately, this experience did not reflect those standards.
