    I’ve been coming here for years but this had been by far the absolute worst experience with this location. My dog was scheduled for an annual teeth cleaning and shots and was told to come between 7:15-7:30am. We arrived on time but the facility was locked and employees did not show up until almost 8am, making me late for work now due to their tardiness which is unacceptable. During drop off, they told me my dog would be ready for pickup after 2pm and they would give me a call. Hearing nothing at 2:50, I called for an update. They said she was delayed in her procedure because of the disorganization and tardiness from the morning and was now waking up. She would also need about 3 hours after waking up for monitoring so to come at 6pm. I would have not know any of this information if it was not for me calling originally. Now on my way for the 6pm pick up, they give me a call and ask me if I am on the way to pick up my dog. Confused, I said of course and I provided the information they gave to me. The employee told me that was actually ready for pickup hours earlier and did not know where that information came from. I am very upset with this lack of communication and will now plan to move her to another location if this persists.

    The two girls at front desk wearing glasses were very rude and unhelpful. I would never recommend this location.

    My dog Max had a very good experience with his treatment .The only thing they need to work on is help people in need not everyone can afford high pet bills when they are struggling. But the care was really great
