The stuff I used to get here for my animals they don't even carry anymore. The employees are not very helpful. They're not enthusiastic about their jobs and they seem a little sedated like they're out of it. The vibe of the store is mundane. but I guess when the employees don't want to be there, it makes the customers not want to be there either.

Made the drive to this location because the specific item I was looking for was shown as in-stock…read more The associate said the item I was looking for has been recalled so was not available at all. Found an alternative product that would work and at the check out find out that one was also recalled and they couldn't sell it to me. So disappointed and irritated to have made a special trip all for nothing.

Doesn't answer phone, leaves early…read more You can't make an appointment for trims. The hours on the website state they're open until 6 or 7 and they don't take appointments over the phone. I called the grooming extension and the away message said they were busy, not closed. Got there at 5:40 Pm and they were closed. Petco blamed their staff and offered no compensation, 40 minutes of driving wasted.

I was really impressed because it's hard finding someone who's good. Thank you Sam! I'm looking forward to taking my dogs to you again.

Inconsistent Policies and Customer Service…read more I have been bringing both of my dogs to The Barking Lot for grooming for over a year. Unfortunately, my recent experiences have left me extremely disappointed. On one day, I brought in one of my dogs and was never asked to provide proof of his rabies vaccination, even though I had the documentation with me. The very next day, I brought in my other dog. He was approximately one month overdue for his rabies vaccine, and I had already scheduled his vaccination appointment for the following day. When I arrived, a different employee asked for his rabies tag and refused to accept him for grooming because I did not have it. What frustrates me most is the lack of consistency. If proof of vaccination is required, that policy should be applied equally to all customers and by all employees. Instead, one dog was accepted without any verification, while the other was turned away the next day. To make matters worse, when I later attempted to schedule another appointment online, my request was simply rejected without any explanation or communication. Beyond these issues, the front desk experience has often felt unwelcoming, with interactions coming across as passive-aggressive rather than customer-focused. I understand and respect the importance of vaccination requirements, but customers deserve consistent enforcement of policies, clear communication, and professional service. After over a year as a customer, this experience has been very disappointing.

Volunteering at St. Sophia's Forgotten Felines has truly changed our lives…read more We originally started looking for a rescue where my 6‑year‑old could volunteer alongside me. I wanted a place that was safe, welcoming, and patient with little hands that move with big enthusiasm. St. Sophia's was exactly that. From day one, they made us feel included and valued, and they treated my daughter like a real part of the team. What started as simply wanting to help quickly turned into something much bigger. Before we knew it, we took home our first foster kittens... and then our second... and then our third. Fostering became such a meaningful part of our family routine, and we loved watching these tiny lives grow and eventually go to wonderful homes. We ended up adopting one of our foster kitties. After that, we became even more involved, helping with events, supporting the shelter however we could, and becoming part of the heart of the organization. St. Sophia's truly cares about their cats, their volunteers, and their community. They're compassionate, knowledgeable, and they make it easy for families to get involved in rescue work. If you're looking for a place to volunteer, foster, or adopt, this is the place. I'm so grateful we walked through their doors.

ZERO STARS! Took my dog to their newest location (third location since I started using them) and…read morethey destroyed BOTH of my poor dogs ears, actual giant chunks of skin missing because they don't know how to use their tools!!! It's one thing to make a mistake on one ear but then to do the same thing on the other ear just blows my mind. They didn't even say anything about it even though there was dried blood all over her ears. All they cared about was my Zelle transaction going through and I gave them a good tip! I'm so mad I didn't take a second and look at my dog better before I left. There's no excuse for this, who knows what the kids working there are doing to the dogs. Never going back here!

If I could choose zero stars I would. I took my dog to Spotted Paw Grooming and Pet Foods in…read moreWarrenville, IL to get groomed and will NEVER return. They also moved locations from Wheaton to Warrenville but didn't tell me that upon booking my appointment. Instead, they told me the day before and it was a lot farther drive than I expected. Supposedly, they moved locations back in November and still haven't updated their site. My poor dog is traumatized from her visit and has not been eating well since. She is a Shih Tzu/Bishon mix so she was a little matted. Upon check-in they had a hair length chart to choose how you wanted your dog cut. In no way did I pick a length where I couldn't grab her hair at all. They said they'd call if they had to cut her shorter than discussed, so, they called and asked about her tail and ears. I said that was ok to cut those shorter. But nowhere in that conversation did they say they had to shave her entire body too! My poor dog was completely shaved! She doesn't look the same and friends that come over can't even recognize her. I called to discuss this with the manager before writing a review and he was so scripted and rude on the phone. Seems like he's done this before since he knew exactly what to respond with. I told him that how they groomed her was not what we discussed so he said he'd have to review camera footage of me coming in and choosing what length I wanted and our phone conversation and that it would take at the minimum 2 days to review and investigate it. He ended up finding it right away and called me back in about 5 mins. He never once apologized until I got to the point where I was going to report them and write a review on every site I can. This business is just inhumane and poorly run. Nobody should bring their dog to Spotted Paw shop to be groomed. They've done this to numerous people before me as reviews on Yelp are awful. I'm regretting not doing more research before I took her there. Please go somewhere else to get your dog groomed so you don't have the same experience I did and others before me.

The absolute worst place you could bring a dog to be groomed. They cut my golden retriever's coat…read moredown to nothing, less than half an inch long. "We thought you would like it." Nope, not only do I hate it, but you acted without permission and but my dog at risk the hottest week of the year. Cutting a Golden Retriever's hair short is not recommended because their coat plays a crucial role in regulating their body temperature. The double coat provides Insulation: The double coat helps to regulate a Golden Retriever's body temperature, keeping them warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Protection: The outer coat acts as a barrier against the elements, protecting the skin from wind, rain, and sun damage. Water Resistance: The double coat helps to repel water, making it easier for Golden Retrievers to swim and play in the water. This is basic information all groomers should know.
