I have had negative experiences at both locations, which contrasts with the high volume of…read morefive-star reviews. I originally used the Killarney location, where my dog's nails were cut past the quick. I was not informed of this at pickup. While driving home, I noticed blood throughout the back seat and immediately took my dog to the emergency vet. Although accidents can happen, the visit resulted in just over two hundred dollars in veterinary fees and caused ongoing anxiety for my dog during grooming appointments. When I contacted the location, I was told the bleeding had been stopped sufficiently for pickup, though the hair cut appeared incomplete and uneven. After this incident, I was uncomfortable returning to that location and attempted grooming at home. Eventually, I found a groomer who worked well with my dog, but she later moved away. Out of necessity, I scheduled an appointment at the downtown Petropolitan location. A groom two months ago went well, and my dog showed no signs of distress afterward. I had an appointment scheduled for 9:00 a.m. today. Last night, I received a call advising that another client had cancelled and was asked if I could bring both dogs at 10:30 a.m. instead, which I agreed to. Overnight, one of my dogs became ill, and given the circumstances, I called to cancel the appointment to avoid bringing a sick dog, and another dog living in close contact with him, into a facility with other animals. During the cancellation call, I was told the appointment was still scheduled for 9:00 a.m. and was met with skepticism when I explained the time change. I was also told that I had a history of multiple cancellations, which I questioned, as I had not used their services for approximately a year and a half. I was then advised that the sick dog's appointment could be cancelled but that I should still bring in the other dog, despite explaining the illness and shared household exposure. I was informed that failing to do so would result in a cancellation fee. I was transferred to a supervisor, who apologized for the interaction but reiterated the cancellation policy and continued to question the appointment change. I asked that the matter be confirmed with the groomers, which was acknowledged. At that point, I requested a call from the owner and was told this would occur at her convenience. Between the two locations, these experiences have raised concerns for me regarding communication, customer service, and health-related practices within the facilities. Additionally, throughout these interactions, I experienced what I perceived to be condescending and dismissive attitudes from staff, which further contributed to my dissatisfaction. The overall handling of these situations was difficult to believe and ultimately concerning enough that I felt compelled to share my experience. I do not typically write reviews; however, given the decisions made and how they were communicated, I believe it is important to warn others. I will also ensure that friends and family who currently use these services are made aware of these concerns so they can make informed decisions regarding their pets' care and the facilities that they are bringing them to and the conditions around them.

Central Bark Doggy Daycare has got to be the best team in town, hands down!…read more Not only are all the staff extremely easy to talk to, they make me feel at ease, which as a crazy pet parent can be hard! Our dog Ivar has been to other daycares and always came home cranky, moody and when it came time to drop off... he didn't want to go. With Central Bark, he doesn't even hesitate, and he comes home happy, tired, and excited to go back! We recently used their overnight boarding services while we were out of town getting married and I felt silly for even worrying the slightest that he would be safe and have good time. I got multiple updates everyday (photos and Kim answered all my questions), I actually felt bad for picking Ivar up and ruining his weekend of fun!

I could hear my dogs outside through the concrete building. When approached the groomer said "I bet you're wondering why I'm not with your dogs?" She offered a lame excuse and continued on her way. We waited an hour longer than the quoted time for our pups to be released, she hands us a bill and walks away. No love for our dogs, not nurturing...we will never bring our sweet dogs here again. I hope the dogs will forgive us for such a traumatic experience.
