She was timid because of what she had gone through but she really loved and she felt safe with the owners. I could tell they treated her with great care. Unfortunately, she was bigger (70-80lbs) than I could handle but she would be a wonderful dog for the right person. She is still available to adopt.

The team is so nice, the facility is clean and so fun for all the pups. I appreciate the additional safety precautions the team takes, as one of my dogs is rather anxious, but she still gets ton of individual play time. I travel a good bit, and I can relax knowing my dogs are safe and cared for so well. Furnation is the best!

IMHO Annie is the best dog groomer in the US, definitely the best in Miami. My two large…read more(bordering on gigantic) poodles love her, and I love their haircuts. OK, so we're two gay professionals with his&his poodles (LOL, but they're very butch poodles). Our two furry baby girls would probably destroy every shoe in the house if we gave them some whacky puff-ball poodle cut. They get a basic once-inch-or-so all over cut. Annie is so precise and perfect, I'll bet if you measured any point on their fur, it would be exactly 1 inch. It's this perfection plus a sense of personal artistry and enormous kindness to the animals that makes the big difference. When you walk in, you can see just about every dog wagging their tail, not looking terrified of the clippers. She even washes and ties back their bandanas; she even gets the right color bandana on the correct sister and they're almost identical. She's not only inventive (ex: little bit longer fur just by the corner of their eyes to keep away gnats), she's terrific, highly professional and very friendly. While not the cheapest game in town, she's like the L'Oreal of the dog grooming world: because you're woof it baby!

You can tell she loves animals, and takes pride in making them gorgeous! She takes her time with each one of her fur babies. I highly recommend her if you're looking for a groomer, you will not be disappointed. She listens carefully to what you want, and then produces exactly that. Thank you Annie, I always feel confident dropping off my doggy clients with you.

I texted a pic of what we wanted her to look like and they did a fantastic job. We got a pic of her as the grooming was wrapping up so we could plan to head over.

I I heard about this place from someone at the dog park who told me there is a Brazilian groomer…read moreat this place and that is amazing with the small dogs. Spike is a just over one year and was never professionally groomed. It was very easy to make the appointment online. I parked in front of the building and was asked to move to the back area because grooming is at the back building. It looks like this was a house with a "mother-in-law"apartment in the back and it was converted into a vet clinic. Well, that is where grooming is done. Cecilia came outside to meet us and to greet Spike. She was very friendly and gentle with him. Two hours later I got a text: ready! Spike has no cuts (I was afraid it would happen) and looked soooo handsome and cute. The Brazilian lady was not working that day, but the grooming was just as perfect. Spike will be back for sure! #spikemiami

I expect a pet sitter to be 100% trustworthy and honest. Their job is to give you peace of mind…read morethat your furry child and your personal property are in good hands. I have not been impressed with Furry Spot and I agree with the reviewer about prepaying - you might not get the best care every time but you'll pay for it anyway. (FYI, Dania is the owner and she hires contractors for walks/feedings.) I went out of town for a week in June and Furry Spot was MIA for some of the days (they promise a photo of your cat every day, but I didn't always get one and couldn't reach anyone). I had a bad feeling before I left because the girl was supposed to come by for instructions but flaked. When I came home I found FLIES in my cat's food bowl and the rest of a can of food on the counter wrapped in a paper towel (Read: "Refrigerate after opening"). With that many flies, I seriously doubt she had come by for at least 2 days. The food bowl was FILTHY -- obviously not washed between feedings. Took a couple of soaks and scrubs to get it clean. Even more troubling (though not surprising, based on what I just told you) was that my cat vomited 3-4 times the day I got home and he was really agitated. I had to leave town again in a few days - but had prepaid and it was too late to find someone else - so I was freaking out. I was also REALLY upset that Dania had not tried to call me despite my text messages asking her WTF went wrong (not in those words, of course). I finally got her on the phone and she was too stressed out about her employee and other customers to pay much attention to my concerns. No refund. She believed that the employee had come every scheduled day...because "she told me she did." On a positive note, this time Dania did the visits instead of giving them to a contractor. My cat seemed healthy when I returned and no flies! Another thing related to trustworthiness: Earlier in the year we agreed to trade services - pet sitting for tutoring. I discounted my fee, overlooked no-shows, accommodated requests to "pay next time." She was really happy with my services, but when it came to paying, told me for months that business was "really slow." Never paid me, never refunded what I overpaid her and didn't use. Never returned my keys (had to change the locks). Hope this is useful to some of you.

Last month my boyfriend and I had to head out of town for a wedding. More than any other detail,…read moreour biggest dilemma was trying to find someone to watch our kitten (well, she's technically a cat but she's my little fury baby). We adopted our cat (Raja) from the pound when she was only 7 weeks old; she is very used to my boyfriend and I but hasn't been exposed to many other people. We both work from home so naturally, Raja has become somewhat needy and requires a good amount of attention. I spent about a month looking for places near me; animal hospitals, cat boarding places, friends but none of the places gave me any comfort; after all I LOVE my Raja About one week before our trip we made the decision to leave her home by herself. We were going to buy her some extra food and litter boxes and pray for the best. At first this idea seemed to work but I changed my mind and I looked hard to find someone to watch her; that's when I started looking for someone to come to our apartment to check on her instead of leaving her somewhere. I came across Furry Spot on Yelp and saw some decent reviews, however even though most of the reviews were amazing there were some that, well, weren't. We took our chances and called Dania, the owner at Furry Spot and made an appointment to meet with her. The day of our meeting, we chatted with Dania for about 45 minutes; we spoke about how Furry Spot works, about Raja and about the cost. I felt so comfortable after meeting Dania I knew I was going to hire her to watch Raja while we were away. Fast forward - we go on our trip after dropping off our apartment keys to Dania the night before and even though I trusted she was in good hands, I still wanted to check up on my kitty. I called Dania the next morning knowing that she was going to be at our apartment bright and early to make sure that Raja made it through the night OK without my boyfriend and myself. Dania assured me everything was wonderful and that Raja surprisingly took a liking to Dania (she doesn't like many people). Dania even sent me a photo of Raja playing which made me very happy. We were only gone for 5 days and Dania and I text each other every day. When we got home from our trip, Raja seemed like her normal self. Very happy to see us but not distraught at all! She was clean, smelled good, her litter box was clean, she had plenty of fresh food and water, she looked like she ate and there were no injuries to her (Thank goodness). We don't go out of town often but when we do I'm definitely using Furry Spot again! In fact, I'd recommend them to anyone in the area. I'm really glad that I gave Furry Spot a chance because there were some bad reviews; one had nothing to do with the service but was angry about Dania wanting payment upfront so I didn't care too much about that. One was really negative and I'm shocked that anyone could have such a bad experience like that considering mine was so positive! I don't normally write reviews (especially ones this long) but I'm such an animal lover that I felt it was necessary to help out fellow pet owners who plan to travel or need any pet service for that matter.

On March 25th we left our Dog (Small Pomeranian) at DOG Hotel of Brickell, for a simple grooming, something that should have been completely safe and risk free. However, due to their negligence and lack of process he was allegedly put in contact with other dog and was attacked. As a result, he PERMANENTLY LOST HIS EYE. The whole eye popped out of his face and couldn't be saved, and he had to go through Enucleation. Not only he suffered a severe trauma that will affect him for the rest of his life, but this is also extremely painful and emotionally devastating to our family! He was handled in perfect conditions and returned to us WITHOUT AN EYE! No pet owner should ever have to experience this. After looking into it we discovered that THIS WAS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. Another owner has reported a similar attack happening after the grooming session at this facility a onth ago and this didn't serve as an alert for them, unfortunately! THIS SUGGESTS A PATTERN OF NEGLIGENCE THAT CAN'T BE IGNORED! We want to RAISE AWARNESS so that no one else goes through it....please encourage your friends to post the bad experiences they had with them, so that we can save more animals from this place!
