    Our dog loves this place. She used to be apprehensive when we first started coming here but now she is used to Gryffindore.

    What a great place! I can't tell you in the many years of having pets and taking them to play/board how nice it is here. Finally, my pets matter and I'm not treated like an inconvenience. So many places I've been to before Griffindore I felt treated like a number and looked at as a money pit. Several times (at another place) I literally felt one of my dogs was returned to me as the bait dog. Full of pee, poo on the feet and was skipped her meal and food returned. The dog was so dehydrated, as well. Glad I found a place that treats pet and owner with respect. Thanks so much!

    Great place to board your dog. Great location and great hours. The owner is really great and I know my dog is safe there.

    This location is much better than the Morrow location. I still don't think Petsmart is as good as…read moreother pet stores, but they have definitely improved over the years. I like the in store pick up for online orders, but I wish they had a pick up location somewhere. Often times the only people up front are the cashiers and I either have to wait in line or wait for an associate to come. The sales are decent and most Saturday's they have pet adoption so you can check out the furry friends. They do dog training here and grooming. I've only groomed my dog a couple of times. I don't like that I can't see the wash/bath and the blow dry. If you're going to have glass windows to show the grooming, why not make the whole place visible? It's a little suspect. Customer service is decent, the manager is nice, the forklift driver who works early mornings is also very nice. Huge store with lots of different items in stock!

    I had one of the WORST experiences ever at PetSmart. I brought my dog in for a simple grooming…read moresession, and they completely shaved him BALD without asking or explaining anything. He looked traumatized, and I was furious. It's like they have no clue how to handle pets professionally. The staff was rude and dismissive, and clearly didn't care about customer service at all. When I tried to get answers, they acted like I was bothering them. Zero accountability, zero professionalism. The grooming area and store itself were dirty and disorganized. It didn't feel safe or clean enough for animals, let alone people. Honestly, I wouldn't trust them with a stuffed animal, let alone a living pet. It's clear there's no real work ethic here--just people rushing through the day without regard for quality or care. The way they handle the animals is rough and careless. My dog was shaking when I picked him up. NEVER AGAIN. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. I would also like to mention that the manager of the establishment was very nice and definitely did see imperfections between our dogs. She stated that the tale was unevenly shaved, un proportioned, and there was places that hair still could've been kept to be honest. It looks like Stevie Wonder could've shaved my dog and probably did a better job if you are considering this establishment do not go you would literally be neglecting your dog

    I wanted to leave an honest review about my experience because I almost allowed the negative…read morereviews to influence my decision -- and I'm glad I didn't. I brought my dog Abundance to this location in McDonough, GA. When I first arrived, I asked whether she would need dematting or detangling and was initially told she looked fine. Later, I received a call that she would need some dematting, which could range from $10-$25. I'll be honest -- I became concerned because I had already read reviews about upcharging, and I was also working within a very tight budget at the time. I expressed my concern, and in hindsight, I regret how I approached it. The groomer was understandably offended, and I truly felt bad afterward. I apologized because I realized she was simply doing her job and being honest about what my dog needed. Despite the uncomfortable start, she still moved forward and groomed Abundance -- and I am so glad she did. Not only did she do a good job, but something very important stood out to me: My dog came back HAPPY. Abundance goes to the groomer regularly, and typically when she comes home, she's quiet, withdrawn, and goes straight to her bed. This time was completely different. She came back happy, spunky, and in great spirits -- like her normal joyful self. As a dog mom, that meant everything to me. The groomer also chose not to charge me for the detangling, which I truly appreciated, especially given my situation. That level of kindness and professionalism did not go unnoticed. I also want to say -- don't let negative reviews automatically discourage you. Every experience is different, and in my case, the groomer showed patience, professionalism, and compassion. I plan to return to tip her again when I'm able because I truly appreciated her work and how she treated my dog. Thank you for taking care of Abundance and making her experience a positive one.
