Playground review: it's a super nice space and is designed for ages 2-12. There's a ton of different equipment for all abilities. However frustrating when older/larger kids are wreaking havoc and abusing the equipment while moms are talking with their backs turned away from the playground. Don't be those moms.

My child enjoyed every opportunity to meet animals in a relaxed and educational environment. They have a wonderful playground outside and is free. The animal tour is $10 / adult and $3 for kids. Worth every penny, my kid had never enjoyed animals until this trip. The outdoor animals are in excellent comfort and clean areas. We fed goats and pigs. Then we went inside and saw Guinea pigs, rabbits, and a lizard! Phenomenal educational opportunity!! You do need a reservation for the animal tours and they have summer camp so call Ahead to make sure it's available. Parking is in the lot.

First grooming experience…read more Never had a problem in the store; However, the grooming salon was a different experience. First, let me say, I have an 11 month old lab puppy--He is hyper and can be hard to deal with because he is always happy, playful but very strong. I chose a male groomer for this purpose and made PetSmart aware when making the appointment that he can be hard to control. Since I have bathed him at Pet Market, I know these people have restraints for strong dogs. While the groomer was okay when I talked with him at drop off, I did not have a good feeling when I left. The entire vibe was off in the room with everyone and I already knew I would not be back when I signed the paperwork. I went up the road to Chick-fil-A and waited with the phone beside me. The manager called an hour later and said they couldn't do a service, which was a relief to pick him up. The manager explained he was too hyper but was nice about it. I was also told me when I got there, my dog had lunged at a couple of other dogs, which is uncharacteristic of him since he is a lover not a fighter. He is still a dog nonetheless and I was not there. They did offer another appointment time when it was calmer for him when I picked him up. I declined. Overall, I just didn't get the impression many of these groomers cared for animals. The vibe was off for a reason and that's enough for me.

My pup's sanitary area/back legs/behind her ears was a disaster-despite my best efforts and regular brushing. Holly was late for our scheduled time BUT she made up for it. She spent at least two hours working on her. My girl looks like a new pup, smells beautiful, no more matting, and seemed to have a great time w Holly. Holly was friendly, professional, and I'm very happy with the experience. My Jolene looks and feels better, and that's what matters most. I think a lot of these negative reviews are due to lack of communication/scheduling. Which is understandable. By the time she showed up, I was no longer expecting her to come. Please take into consideration she is traveling all over the area, and often taking clients without knowing what state the dog is in, or how long it will take. English is (presumably) not her first language, but I am happy with the service overall, and I plan to schedule again.

But there was never a biopsy performed, I was never told what type of cancer he has, etc. THEN! When he needed a refill on his pain medication, I called no less than 4-5 times, leaving messages to get his medication before the weather set in (we had about 10" of snow). NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK. Ended up getting the medication from chewy.com because it was much cheaper (180/$60 vs 60/$50) but of course STILL needed the bloody prescription from SFA . Called several more times, leaving more messages, but still getting no reply. My poor baby is is now completely out of pain medication, and these people obviously just DO NOT CARE!! How and why would you even want to be a vet if you're so obviously comfortable with seeing ani in pain? Yes, they may be more affordable than some other places, but I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM!!!
