This morning they asked for a picture of his poor red belly covered with hives because it's Friday and they are booked up. Rather than make us wait for an appointment next week and poor Rudy being miserable all weekend they look at his picture and changed he's medication right away and we just had to stop n and pick them up. Awesome care for their patients. We have many dogs and Vets over the years but none as caring and concerned as these.

BAD GROOMER: After getting my dog groomed here several times, the groomer then called to say that…read moremy dog bit her and I had to medicate the dog next time. I medicated the next time and the groomer canceled last minute while I was on the way. My dog has been groomed by several other groomers since and they all had a great experience with my dog. Clearly the groomer was rushing and did not make my dog feel comfortable. I will not have her groomed here again. BOARDING: When the women came out to get my dog during drop off, my dog was anxious and did not want to go inside with them--big red flag. I always chose the In-home Stay boarding service since my dog has separation anxiety. For a recent out of town trip, I booked that service as usual. K9 made no attempt to tell me that the In-Home Stay was not available due to renovations and I was not informed until I arrived that morning. I called to get an update on my dog later that day and I was told she was very uncomfortable and scared. The next day I called all day long and NO ONE picked up the phone. I also left voicemails that were not returned. The next day, I got an update that my dog was doing great but I didn't believe that. I will never board her again after this experience. I have not tried the daycare.

I wish I could give lower than one star. We were so excited to find this place and trusted them…read morewith our dog while we went on vacation. He did a trial run and they said he was one of the best trials they ever did and we felt confident in leaving him overnight for a short trip. All was well so we decided to book him again for our 3 night vacation. Our dog did not come back the same, he has been anxious and timid since returned and that isn't even the worst part. The second we got in the car we noticed that his back paw was hurt. One of his nails had been completely ripped off. Not broken, completely gone and the quick completely exposed. When we called them to ask what had happened they claimed no knowledge, said it was a common injury - which I have never seen before- and basically did not care at all. We had to take him to the vet and have him sedated so they could cut the quick back. He is now on pain medicine and antibiotics and no word from the Ark. I understand accidents happen but we weren't even informed and they did not care. Even worse, we discovered an abrasion on his neck from the tight collar band they put on him to identify him. It's very clear to us that they do not care about or pay attention to your pets safety. We are absolutely gutted that our boy was treated poorly by people we trusted him with. Not to mention the vet bills we have had to pay on top of the boarding expense which is very close to what we paid for our holiday which was quickly ruined when we came home to discover our dog had been mistreated and hurt. We will never be back to this place and we highly urge that you do not use them either, they don't deserve to be left with the care of your pet and it's clear that if something does happen under their supervision that they do not care. Please take your pets elsewhere.
