My family recently adopted a black smoke Maine Coon kitten from them, and we couldn't be happier. From the moment we brought her home, she has been incredibly loving, gentle, and social -- especially with our little kids. It's clear she was well cared for and properly socialized. She also came already litter-box trained, which made the transition so easy. Her personality is exactly what we hoped for in a Maine Coon: sweet, curious, and affectionate. You can tell Nova's Royal Pets puts time and attention into their kittens. If you're looking for a reputable, caring place to adopt a kitten, I can't recommend Nova's Royal Pets enough. Our little girl has already become the heart of our home!

It was getting so out of hand that it was impacting our experience with him as our pet. We found Macayla at Unleash Fido in Jacksonville. We enrolled Taz in their 4/5 weeks obedience training and OMG we legit have a brand new dog!! He is more calm, settled, obedient and has really responded positively to this new training and rules. The entire team at Unleash Fido have been very helpful, professional and kind. Our trainer Macayla has checked in with us frequently to see how things are going, answering questions and has provided several post training sessions to ensure we are comfortable and continuing his training. I have had to reach out to her regarding some new undesirable behaviors and she made some suggestions that really worked and has been so incredibly helpful. Worth every penny. I would highly recommend them for any dog training needs!

We were recommend Unleash Fido by several people. We scheduled an hour long consultation with Travis who ended up giving us 90 minutes of his time to learn about Lily and discuss their program. Lily had several issues, such as pulling on the leash, lunging at cars, barking at people + other dogs and going absolutely crazy when Amazon/UPS was delivering a package. Ultimately, we booked Lily into their month-long Obedience Training Camp. After receiving weekly report cards that contained photos, videos and a brief update on how the last week was, we were finally ready to pick-up Lily. Our first time picking her up was also our first training with her. We worked on establishing place, having her heel while walking, and working on other things around distractions. Within the first 24 hours back at home, our investment in this training payed dividends. She's obedient on walks, doesn't mind others passing by, comes to us on call, goes to place when told and so much more. We'd highly recommend anyone who's dealing with behavior and/or obedience issues to look into Unleash Fido! It was so embarrassing to have an unruly dog, and this was a true investment that we are so happy we made.

Outstanding service !!…read more Came in looking for a puppy that my babe had put on hold the day before, he wasn't ready yet because they said they were waiting on his certificate. We were talking with a very funny and kind man in the morning and as we were talking to him another lady walked in the man explained that we wanted the husky and was just waiting on the certificate so the lady went out of her way to go pick it up then and there and we got to bring home our little baby who we love so much!! I wish I got those employees names because they made our trip there even more special! We received a free check up and they even threw in a collar and a leash! Love this place!!

Awful atmosphere, disgusting behavior by employees, and poor enviorment for the puppies.

My husband recently surprised me with a beautiful male Siberian Husky from Bark Street Puppies, and…read moreI couldn't be happier! We named him Balto, and he is sweet, loving, healthy, and has already become a cherished member of our family. John, the owner, was wonderful to work with. He helped my husband pull off the surprise, even after my daughter and I had visited Balto three different times before he finally came home with us. The entire experience was positive from start to finish. I know some people have concerns about puppy stores, but John and his wife go above and beyond to carefully vet their breeders. Our puppy came with an extensive pedigree and all the documentation we needed, which gave us confidence and peace of mind. The store itself is adorable, clean, and well-maintained. Another great feature is that they have two locations, each with different puppies available. If you're looking for a specific breed, I highly recommend calling ahead to see which location has the puppy you're interested in.

When we got our second dog, we decided to give Shaggy Chic a try since they were so close to home. They did a great job the first couple of times so we decided to go ahead and take our other dog there too. We have a Cavapoo and a Bernedoodle. They both came home today looking absolutely terrible. Our Cavapoo had gone a couple of weeks over his normal grooming schedule due to the change and when we dropped them off they mentioned some matting and they would have to cut him short. We said we understood and as an owner of a breed like this, in Florida, you know matting can happen especially in the hot summer if their hair starts to get long. He has been cut short a few times in the summer and we agreed a short cut was ok. Not long after dropping them off, I got a call saying that the Bernedoodle was also matted. I told her I didn't feel anything on her and I've been brushing her regularly. She then claimed that her legs were matted near the bottom of her legs and she would have to cut her legs short. I hesitantly said ok and nervously hung up the phone. 6 hours later, we get a text that they are ready and could not believe our eyes when we picked them up. The Cavapoo was shaved down to almost bare skin on EVERY INCH of his body. All hair on his tail is GONE, they even shaved off every single whisker! This is a dog that had been previously meticulously groomed and we had worked very hard on his tail. The Bernedoodle was also shaved down and bare in areas like her ears, paw and top of tail. They clearly don't know breed cuts at all and quite honesty, I think they were lazy and did not want to take the time to cut them right. After my husband was able to process what happened and really get a good look at them, he called to ask them what happened and they were very rude claiming that they told us on the phone they had to shave them. No, they never told us they were going to absolutely shave him bare. They claimed that the last groomer was mean and mistreated him if they cut the matting. The truth is, the previous groomer took her time and worked through them. I regret ever leaving her. My husband then proceeded to tell her that she was not being honest and asked her to admit how bad the dogs look to which she replied that our dogs were neglected and abused and we weren't welcome back and then hung up on him. This is laughable. Anybody who knows us or our dogs, knows that is far from the truth. Lastly, the Cavapoo has been sick since he's been home, even having blood in his stools. I can't imagine the trauma that happened to him and how they must have mistreated him. I'm not sure what happened in there today but I don't think it was good or healthy for the dogs. Oh, and to top it off, our bill for the two of them was $320 and they make you pay before you even see the dog. Save your dog the trauma, and yourself the regret and go somewhere else.
