I started using the Pet Apothecary to get my Sasha Beagle's antibiotics for a bladder infection as…read morethe multiple human pharmacies I tried were very confused by the prescription. The good people here filled the prescription quickly and I was able to pick up immediately. This pet pharmacy compounds their own medications and can make them in a variety of forms (liquid, pill) and add flavors to make administering much easier for pet owners. Sasha was recently diagnosed with TCC (transitional cell carcinoma) and must have a special prescription that had filled here. I am confident with the staff's knowledge and resources, that they will continue to provide excellent service for as long as I need to obtain my peanut's special medicine. When a vet calls/faxes in a prescription, a staff member will call first to verify and inform you of the price. I am unaware of what market prices are for the medications I have gotten filled, but I do know that Clavomax was MUCH cheaper here than through the vet office (like 1/3 or less the cost). The only issue I have encountered is the hours - they are only open 10a-5:30pm Monday through Thursday, and Friday until 4pm. With my work schedule, it can be difficult getting there before they close to pick up my pup's Rx. Of course, my baby comes 1st so I will do what it takes to get there!

If you see a posting for a job at this place. DON'T APPLY!…read more They pay decent but they mess up your checks, health insurance through them once employed is over the top expensive. Once you're in and doing the job it's not that bad. The only thing bad about the job itself is the clients being incredibly rude and you literally get screamed at either on the phone or in person. Now, let's get to the staff. Some are nice, some are two faced. One of the customer service reps walks around like she's a manager when she in no way shape or form has the title. But, speaking of managers. Lets talk about the head pharmacist who doesn't like to deal with client complaints, and talks down to you because you did all you could before trying to get her involved, and when you got her involved in said client/customer complaint she doesn't want to deal with it. Oh, and don't expect her to be at her desk located in the compounding area, she likes to hide away in her office and barely help the other pharmacists. Her attitude is very rude and passive as well. It seems like most of the staff come and go as they please, show up whenever they want and blame it on their children. But when YOU bring up personal life issues happening outside of work that you either have called in for or need to leave early for its okay at the time, but when in reality it's not. The company is backwards and quickly going down hill now that optio took over. Anyone who reads this review can clearly tell I'm a former employee who was done wrong and dirty. My advice, don't get your compound medication for your pet at this pharmacy. Go through Chewy or another source. They are over priced and honestly don't care about your pets health. ‍

The mobile grooming truck is outdated and poorly ventilated - sent our dog to the ER with heat stroke! We expected the clean, professional truck in the website pictures. But Nicole arrived in the old truck, photo attached. The first grooming was okay (3/5) but the quoted price changed multiple times, and our dog was not happy afterwards. But that happens with new groomers and we wanted to support a locally owned business. So we booked a 2nd appointment. Round 2 was a disaster and we almost lost our dog to heat stroke. After a full day in the pet emergency room, Nicole refused to answer calls and texts. No offer to refund based on her poor service and danger to our dog. The veterinarian explained that our dog's heat stroke was brought on by high temperatures in the grooming truck and anxiety induced by poor treatment. Our dog went into Nicole's truck perfectly healthy and came out with a black tongue, unable to walk straight and eventually passed out. Nicole didn't notice and left with no remorse. She is unfit to be trusted with the care of your pet. Additionally, Nicole increased the price of the 2nd appointment but spent 1/3 of the time with our dog. We're assuming this is because the appointment took a turn for the worse when our dog fell ill. But we don't know because Nicole refused to answer calls and texts after the appointment. She did not follow-up when we informed her our dog was in the ER. The customer service is shocking. I'm sorry to leave such a poor review but I would have for other pets to endure such dangerous conditions.

I had the sad task of arranging euthanasia and a private cremation but he died on my bed with me. I contacted Pet Lawn and brought Opie there. I can pick up his ashes in two days. I even found the most beautiful, non-traditional container (non-urn) for his ashes. I'm afraid I don't remember the name of the two women I spoke with but they were so helpful and so compassionate and so sympathetic. It's just what I needed at such a sad time. I called to let them know I would arrive later in the afternoon and they stayed open for me. A big plus for me is that they were more affordable than any other place I called in Milwaukee and the surrounding area.

Four years ago, I left a 5-star review for Pet Lawn on other platforms, but apparently not on Yelp…read more I'm a little glad that I missed this one, so that I could leave another 5-star review. Our dog, Arya, passed away three days ago and it's been painful for us beyond measure. Her heart stopped while she was playing, so it was extremely unexpected. While we know our vet does a great job for end of life services, we also knew without hesitation that we wanted to take Arya here because of the amazing care and attention that they gave to our Lulu-Bean (she was an exotic animal and they didn't blink an eye or even consider turning her away). We brought Arya here and not only did Pet Lawn accommodate every request, but they gave us as much time as we needed to say goodbye, since we didn't get to when she passed. And today, we received a condolences card honoring her. They treat your pet like the family that they are, and treat them with the utmost respect that they deserve. I 1000% recommended Pet Lawn four years ago, and I 2000% recommend them today. My only regret is that I won't be able to leave other 5-star reviews for future pets, but I hope Pet Lawn knows that they'll always receive 5-stars from us every time we tell someone about them.
