The staff was super friendly and helpful in grooming our two dogs July 9th, 2025. I brought in a picture of how I wanted my Yorkie cut, and they matched it perfectly. My other dog had skunk smell, and they got rid of it. They said tomato juice is the best remedy for skunk smell. We will definitely bring our dogs back here to get groomed!! read more

This Pet Spa and grooming is the absolute best there is period. Ive had dogs for almost 39 years and this is the best place I have ever brought my fur babies to. Been a customer for 8 years now. My own mother loved Dusty Paws so much she made the drive up from Atlanta to have her own dogs groomed. That in itself speaks volumes of just how fabulous the owner and her staff are. They take their time and are patient. They go above and beyond to ensure that you leave a happy customer and your fur baby is red for the red carpet!!!! I can't say enough great things about this establishment!! Thank you for always taken care of and treating my fur babies like they are your own fur babies. My sloth baby and Sissy boy are beyond blessed to have found you and your business!!!! read more

such amazing and kind people. my dog is a rescue who is afraid of EVERYTHING. first time i went in, he got nervous and nipped at them. instead of denying him and me service, they agreed to give him another chance. told me what to do, and scheduled me for an early morning as to avoid loud noises and stressors. let me sit with him while he got his nails trimmed to calm him down, and even gave him a treat. i wish i came here sooner! honestly such an incredible place, i'll be taking him here for as long as i can. thank you for everything yall!! read more

We found this little gem several years ago when we lived nearby. We moved about 30 minutes away but still make the drive to see the ladies here for every nail trim and grooming that is needed. There are plenty of places closer but these ladies treat my pups with great care. Definitely the best around! read more

This is a brand new Petco that probably has been here less than a year . They have pet training here as it is located in the middle of the store.

You can get a loyalty card here which you can save money on shopping here. It's good at all Petcos and is free. So be sure to get a loyalty card. Of course you can adopt a pet here.

I go in about 3 times a week. Well when I first got my husky I knew I wanted to get her groomed at petco. Well for the last 9 months I have consistently got her groomed there. The people were always nice and loving and knew my dog by name. They told me that there is no need to make appointments during the week and walking in is fine. I have ALWAYS AND I REPEAT ALWAYS PAID 25 dollars to have her groomed! I have even told people to go to petco and get their pets groomed. Well I walk into day and this Snot nose girl which I've never seen told me it was going to be $48 For the grooming. ALMOST DOUBLE!!!!!!! I told the lady nicely I have never paid that much and she wanted to argue with me saying it must have been a special... a special for 9 months in a row and then you double the price on me. boorish!!! I then went out to speak with someone on the floor and they went and checked and said I had to wait for a different person and I would have to make an appointment. So now because they gave me false information I have loaded my dog In the car drove her all the way down here where I was going to drop her off and go to work. Well now I can't because they basically held me hostage.... pay double ... or drive all the way back home and be late for work... This company went from being my favorite place... to the worst... I will boycott your gauging company and I surely hope you have a conversation with the. Black haired goth girl that wanted to talk to me like I was a moron. Listen carefully. I WILL NEVER SPEND ANOTHER DOLLAR IN YOUR STORE AND I WILL MAKE IT MY MISSION TO MAKE OTHERS DO THE SAME ! I've recommended so many people to here and now I look like the bad guy when they come here and they are inconsistent with what ever price system they have!

She couldnt get comfortable lying down. Classic signs of congestive heart failure. My normal vet did not have any openings for a week. I found this place during a google search. They got her in right away. They provided me a number of option and reccommendations. I decided to pay for the expensive stuff EKG, Ultrasound etc. They found exactly what I thought and immediatly gave her a lasix treatment to reduce the fluid retention. within hours she was breathing 100% better. The test showed Enlarged Heart, Glitchy Mitral valve and Congestive heart failure. The meds prescribed have worked great so far. She is on the schedule to see there cardiac specialist on 8/10. Yes it wasn't cheap, but you get what you pay for. This place is open 24/7. Of course the overhead is high. They have all the specialist and equipment you could ask for. I did have to wait longer than initially told. However, they are an emergency clinic! They prioritise the most sick or injured. Which I appreciate. If my waiting two hours longer than expected allows someone else's babies to survive than so be it.

The level of incompetence at this place is unmatched. From the vets (they don't finish their notes…read moreon the day of the appointment so you have to wait to get your pets records, the ER vet we saw forgot something and had to ask his assistant to go fix something for another pet while he was in the room with us and then we asked for fluids to administered to our cat along with a medicine and he said he was going to go do it and it would be 5 min and 40 min later the vet tech said he was 'really busy' and couldn't do it before our cat wasn't sedated anymore and so they just didn't do it). The vet tech told us completely inaccurate information twice including that we didn't owe an additional invoice while he handed us $150 medication that sells on Chewy for half that, and telling us the incorrect way to administer the medicine per the label on it. And then the admin staff... over several speciality visits they told me they were going to send records and they just don't. Twice now I've had to call and make a scene after two and half days go by to get my cat's medical records. They also lie about what's going on in the back. When we asked for our cat they said they were putting him in his carrier and then 10 minutes later we asked again and they said the same thing. They just say whatever to not deal with people. The wait times are also horrendous. I've never spent less than three hours here. Then the finance billing person told me she wouldn't send my records until I paid my balance which is ILLEGAL. I told her that, she said it again, I told her it was illegal again and then she finally sent them, but had to be threatened with legal action. The worst part though? We learned nothing about what is going on with our seriously ill cat after a neurology visit, and multiple ER visits. They just referred me to another specialist within their practice. This place is a SCAM and my cat was worse off than before he went in there. Go to AESC!

I would suggest going to Parkway Animal clinic. They were very kind and compassionate even though they had never seen my dog before. I will definitely be going back to them.

We were with Catoosa VCA for 14 years and left their practice this month following what was…read moredescribed to me by another thoroughly established licensed vet as negligent care. Two weeks ago, my 14 year old shi tzu underwent the routine dental cleaning that she has received every year. Before her cleaning, we did the required blood work. We received a text from one of the doctors stating that the blood work was "all good". The lab results were not available for us to view at that time, and the front desk clerk said it takes a while for them to load into the system when we called to state we couldn't see them. Taking the doctor's word, we schedule her dental, which is done under anesthesia. When we dropped her off, she was her normal, completely spry senior self. When we were called to pick her up, we were told everything went well. When we arrived, she was barely responding to us and didn't seem to know what was going on. This is different from every other time we have picked her up, but the tech assured us that she had taken her out and she walked around, but was just sleepy again. On the ride home, I was completely worried but thought she might need to sleep it off. After taking a brief nap, she was completely agitated and confused. She did not sleep the entire night. We called and explained her confusion and now new hunched posture, and were told to return to the office if we were concerned. We went back and Dr. Collins examined her and said she just needs time due to her age and the anesthesia. When I asked about her posture, he said maybe they "tweaked" her back since X-rays were done also. Tweaked her back??? So he prescribed an NSAID, and off we went. Well, at this time she was also refusing to eat, which we told him, and he did not seem concerned. The NSAID was given, and she began to vomit in the coming days, so we again returned to VCA Catoosa. We saw a female doctor this time who stated it was just her back and prescribed a steroid right after an NSAID with no washout period. She began to have diarrhea. Luckily, she did not develop a stomach ulcer or GI bleed. She still was not eating a week later. We decided to see another respected vet office in the Chattanooga area, which immediately drew labs and found that she had sustained a kidney injury from surgery and that her pre-anesthesia labs showed that she was developing acute pancreatitis and should not have had an elective procedure. They also checked blood pressure, which showed that she was severely hypertensive. Catoosa had never routinely monitored her BP. I wasn't aware this was something done for dogs until I went to an office that actually examined her properly. So she had to be hospitalized at our expense for a kidney injury and pancreatitis. The only time anyone called to check on her was when we requested records to be sent to a new office. It was more of a "why" inquiry than a "how is your pup really doing" inquiry. I requested cancellation of the care club membership and was told we technically owed them money since the plan had just renewed, but they were going to do us a favor by cancelling a plan we had for 14 years and had barely used, free of charge. This was after they severely injured my pup, which cost us over $3,000 out of pocket. On top of everything, the negligence continued when Dr. Collins called to tell me to continue using prednisone that they had prescribed to treat the back that they had injured. Luckily, with her stomach issues and her inability to eat, we did not continue to use it. This was during the period that we were waiting on the lab results from the new vet. There was no way I was taking any more medical advice from Catoosa, and I am so glad that I got a second opinion because I truly feel she would not be here today. I will be reaching out to VCA headquarters and the veterinarian licensing board to file complaints. Hopefully, this will save someone from watching their animal suffer while "doctors" just push meds at them without properly exploring what is going on. It truly broke my heart because we TRUSTED them.
