    I made an appointment for 11am for grooming. I brought my dogs vaccination records however his…read morerabies vaccination was not on the paper and I couldn't get my dog groomed. That is understandable so I left. After receiving the most current vaccination records, I returned around 12:30pm and encountered Bridgette. I explained the situation and provided her the records. As Bridgette was entering the information, I asked if my dog could be seen now or wait until 1:30pm (an appointment I made about 20 minutes prior). Bridgette said yes and to go get my pet from the car. Here's where the situation turned from great to worse. Bridgette was no longer at the desk and I waited in line for more than 10 minutes to get checked in. As the associates (male stylist with piercings in his right eyebrow and right ear) and female stylist Lo was figuring things out, Lo stated loudly that I would have to wait because I was late. I informed Lo that I was not late as Bridgette approved me to come in early for my 1:30pm appointment. I informed Lo unless she knows the situation, she should not try to embarrass me with her loud comment. About 45 minutes after dropping my dog off, I received a text informing me my dog was ready. I thought that was quick but I turned around and went back. I was met by the stylist with the piercing and he asked "what can I do for you ". I informed him that I received a text stating my dog was ready. He looked and said that was a mistake. No apologies or remorse just that was a mistake. I demanded my dog as this service and experience has been the absolute worst! The stylist never apologized even after retrieving my dog. I've looked at the reviews of this particular location and see the common complaint: RUDENESS!

    I haven't returned to this location after how rude the groomer was, + they did my boyfriends dog…read morewrong :\ i understand dogs are nervous and move a lot during a haircut but cmon, you're literally TRAINED for stuff like this and you're being paid for this service... do better. my dog was shaved too close to the skin in certain areas and i know it happens but it was just so much this time. despite the cut, the service was weird. my boyfriend and i were running around 10 minutes late to our appointment. when we arrived our groomer said "you didn't think to call and say you were gonna be late?" and my boyfriend thought she was like trying to have playful banter and he's like "haha yeah sorry about that it's my first time here i was having trouble getting here" and she says "yeah but if you're gonna be late to something don't you think you should call" and we didn't say anything cause we were so confused like??? i completely understand that we were late and take full responsibility for that, but there's a better way to address things without speaking to us that way and with such a tone in her voice. it was very condescending. i told my boyfriend we shouldn't go back there and that if we did we'd have to ask for a different groomer.

I arrived at 6:55am and got out of my car at 6:59. No one answered the doorbell, an employee showed up but couldn't enter since the manager had not yet arrived, there was also another employee in her car waiting... long story short one employee call the manager at 7:26. He answered his phone and said he'd be another 25 minutes, which was completely unacceptable! Therefore, since the manager was an hour late, I had to leave because I had other plans. I found another groomer for my dog and I was very happy with the results.

    My pup has been groomed here over a year and I've always been pleased. I took Cairo in today and…read morehis cut was so botched. I explained that he did have some matting. The groomer, Edith, felt through his fur and said it wasn't bad. I told here there was matting on one ear and he would need to be cut shorter on his ears. She felt it and agreed. I received a call that Cairo was ready for pick up, at that time I was informed that Cairo wouldn't allow the clippers near his face. No worries, they told me that before. When I arrived to pick up, I was greeted by another groomer. All the groomers were grooming dogs, including Edith that groomed Cairo. Normally, she greets me upon pick up. This time she kept grooming and the other groomer stopped grooming the dog she was with. Edith never even looked up. I didn't recognize my dog. I can understand having to cut a dog low, due to matting but I would still expect it to be even. He was botched and his tear stains and fur under his eyes was untouched. When he's gotten a wash the tear stains lighten some. It looked as if she just took the clippers to him, carelessly. I don't normally complain but this was horrible.

To top it off, they are beyond reasonable. I needed 10 gold fish for my son's birthday party (Sesame Street Theme). I needed the 10 fish bagged separately lol. The owner has a bit of dry humor and is somewhat of a jokester. In saying that, when I told the guy I needed them bagged separately he was totally against it. However, he bagged them separately and said he would charge me extra for the bag which totaled out to be an extra $.20 (yes, twenty cents lol). I also purchased food and my bill came out to be under $4. I can tell you now that Petsmart and Petco are much more expensive than this local store.

    I work from home and have been clipping my own dog's nails for four straight years, so I don't…read moreparticularly need most of the services at Bark Place. However, I got this dog sweater from this location and thought maybe my dog would wear it once or twice for pics but never again. (I'm not a huge fan of dogs wearing clothes, but I had to admit a noticeable difference with my short-haired dog not shivering during winter months while wearing two separate coats. So I backed down on making fun of dog coats. My two larger, furrier dogs in prior years never needed manmade coats.) But this sweater is turning into a Linus blanket situation. I tried putting on a "Christmas" dog coat that matched her red Xmas collar (I love festive dog collars!!!), but it was white and getting dirty too quickly. I took it off to handwash it and put the Bark Place pink sweater on my dog solely for one walk, and she's been running away ever since when I try to take it off at night. At one point, she slid under one of the bar stools in my dining room, around the corner, ran into my bedroom and into her crate, flopping down sideways. Even if you don't need anything else in Bark Place, take note of the dog clothes. A bunch of my relatives crochet and knit, so I already knew the dog sweater was solid quality but expected it to wear. It still looks brand new, and my dog is glued to it. When I take it off to bathe her or what I *think* is comfier to sleep at night, she growls and leaps for it. I think a pink sweater and a red bow collar clash, but she couldn't care less about me being the fashion police. I'm tickled by how much she likes THIS particular sweater but has never ever been this into any other dog clothes gift (that I usually return) in four straight years. Don't sleep on the dog sweaters, I guess, unless you're my own dog who will turn over sideways so she CAN sleep in hers.

    Working at BarkPlace on/off since 2013. I love to see these pups and their different personalities…read moreevery day... a job anyone could dream of!

    Very compassionate staff. The go above and beyond to care for all the precious animals in their careread more

    After my dog's passing.... I had alot of food, treats and other care products left over…read more So, I went to this shelter location and dropped off the food/treats there. This facility (62 S Wabash) is an intake location. If have questions about animals they are willing to help. So, if you find a lost animal or you can't simply take care of your pet due to a variety of reasons.... You can simply drop the animal to this location and they will try to reunite the lost animal; network with the various animal organizations and/or contact the veterinarian for it's well being.. The staff are very nice, friendly to me and the animals inside. This location has a unique history dealing with a variety of animals. Since this location looks old from the outside, however it's what goes on in the inside that counts. If I had extra money on the side, I would love to give the building a face lift (rehab) because it really needs it. The animals will be temporarily given shelter, food, water, treats, walks, etc. Until the next step (reuniting with their owners, being transferred to an animal location and/or shelter). It smells a little bit and I don't think the smell will ever go away due to it's long-life-legacy of giving care for the animals.
