Every employee I spoke to was excessively rude and disrespectful towards me and the other customers whether it be over the phone or in person. Very rude. I spoke before to them about her needing to be bathed, trimmed nails, and hair on paw pads, and sanitary. They proceeded to not do any of those things besides bathe her. They must've not brushed her because after her appointment I had to brush her for 20+ minutes to get all of the shed! Her nails are only cut at the very tips..paw pad hairs are overgrown still but now splotchily cut...this place is not worth the money. Don't go here!

My husband and I travel a decent amount and need a good cat sitter for our little ones. They are both older cats and one requires medication twice a day in his mouth. I was nervous when I moved here that we wouldn't find someone who would be able to accommodate his needs but I couldn't have been more pleased with how Creature Comforts made sure he would get the proper care. They require that you meet your assigned pet sitter before your first visit which I think is very smart and helps all parties feel comfortable. My kitties felt comfortable right away with our cat sitter which put me at ease. Our cat sitter went above and beyond and even brought in our mail and refilled our Britta water filter. I had not asked her to do these things but I thought it was a very nice touch. The house was left clean and it looked like the litter had been kept up with very well. My favorite part is the daily updates we would get. Each visit (twice a day), we would get pictures and a little note from our cat sitter via the website/app saying how our cats did that visit. This allowed me to see how my cats were doing throughout the days we were gone and gave me even more confidence in the company. Our cats seemed happy and well taken care of and I am excited to continue using creature comfort's for future trips. Very professional.

I thought as a company Creature Comforts of Columbia was incredibly unprofessional and…read moreirresponsible with my animals. Some forceable motions were used while my dog was on the leash and this stems from improper training, along with no direction from the top. Along with this, if you were to work for Creature Comforts DO NOT expect quality management. Workers here are 1) disrespected 2) unequally compensated 3) and "cogs in the machine" to the owner, signifying a Theory X Pessimistic management style. Again, I would not recommend using or working for Creature Comforts of Columbia.

He and his wife have retired, and unfortunately it's just not the same. We took one of our dogs in due to a huge lump on her back leg that had me concerned. The new doctor looked at the lump, suggested that it was impossible to know what it was w/o surgery. Scheduled surgery, went home. I looked at the lump again, checked her all over - which the doc had not done! She's got similar smaller lumps all over, she's not bothered by them, nor is she bothered by the new big lump. I decided they were all fatty tumors which are fairly common and benign, I have similar lumps myself. We're also medical people, so we reassured ourselves! These don't require surgery, so i canceled hers. More than a year later she's still a healthy frisky 14 y/o senior. I think the doctor should've checked her thoroughly, would've recognized that she had several lumps and they were fatty tumors; shouldn't have suggested surgery as first and only option. Not sure what we'll do for the dogs vets next time, but we have been to Hortons' w/our cats.

There is nothing easy or simple about caring for homeless animals, but I can only thank the…read morevolunteers of the Central Missouri Humane Society for keeping my little girl alive long enough for us to meet. When I first decided to adopt a cat, I looked at their website to preview the kitties they had available for adoption, and one stood out: she was named Oreo for her all black coat with a single patch of white above her eyebrow. I saw her picture and the description saying she was special for having survived despite her heart condition, and thought, that's really sweet, but NO WAY! When I visited to meet the cats they had available, a volunteer told me, have you met Oreo, she's very sweet? And I took her into the one-on-one room just to make the volunteer feel good, having no intention of considering her. 10 minutes later I told the volunteers in the cat room Oreo was going home with me, and they both gasped. As I found out later, she had been there for a year and a half, despite having a heart condition in a kill shelter, and had charmed the staff into keeping her alive in the small chance she would find a home. Fast forward 13 years, and me and Oreo (who I call Thebe) have been together through thick and thin in the best of times, and the worst of times. I was there for her when she had her heart surgery to repair a PDA, when she was diagnosed with fluted, and then diabetes, and she was there for me when I was unemployed for a year and a half after finishing my masters degree... then 2 years after my PhD, and having to accept jobs I could have done just as effectively after high school. And now when I'm entering another period of unemployment, I know she'll be there for me again when I'm at my worst. Always brightening my day with her strange loping walk and chainsmoker meow, and her purr sessions that would melt the coldest heart. For the volunteers and employees of the Central Missouri Humane Society, I can only extend my most heartfelt thank you. Are things perfect there? No! But the job they do literally saves lives, both animal and human. On your darkest days, remember that. You can help bring two lives together who would only be lesser had they never met. And since I'm horribly unemployed again, and rent is the only expense that isn't a luxury, I can only gift this ridiculous picture of Thebe (Oreo) after her heart surgery. She charmed the vet students into demanding she go home early because she couldn't be bothered to be nice to anyone else on her worst day. She says "go away humAn" from her new home in California.
