Locals businesses are held to a standard of professionalism. So should large corporations that want to do business in our city.
Heres my latest story...
I have had my Yellow Lab for 10 years. Bought every item for his care, his food and all my grooming from Pet Smart.
In the last 2 years they have been out of his food several times. ( It had become an issue)
I Recently booked a grooming appointment over the phone for the next day. They asked for vaccination info which I could not provide. I did provide them with the vets contact that I have used for 25 years. (They chose not to call)
I had an important meeting that was booked months in advance for the next day. I decided to drop off the dog on the way to my appointment.
When I arrived I was greeted and asked if I had brought my vaccination report. I reminded them of our phone call the day prior and asked them if they had called. They had not. It was now and issue and I did not have time to return my dog home. They then called the vet while I stood there to find out the vaccination expired 2 days prior.
I expressed my extreme displeasure to the attendant and the manager and again explained that I didn't have time for what was going on.
As I was walking out the door the manager said they would "let it slide this time". After all the grief I explained that I wouldn't be back and would tell everyone that cared about my experience.
All they had to do was call my vet (when I called) as was done many times in the last 10 years.
Their inefficiency and lack of respect for my time and was more grief than anyone should have to endure to wash a dog. read more
