    I really wish Petsmart would get it together when it came to taking care of Beta fish. Sure the employee said they clean it every three days but imagine laying in your feces in a small space for three days and you tell me how that makes it okay? PETSMART DO BETTER. Either stop selling fishes for profit or use the money you have to provide these fishes with a better quality of life. They look lifeless and hopeless it breaks my heart.

    Thank you for helping me celebrate my birthday boy at the Birthday +Gotcha Bash! We received excellent customer service and are so grateful for these types of events!

    Do NOT Recommend! I deeply regret bringing my Poochon here. I was very clear about what I wanted. specifically, that I would comb my dog's hair myself and bring him back for a "teddy bear cut." I was told that it wasn't necessary and he would be fine, but when I picked him up, I could barely recognize him. The worst part is that now, my dog is terrified of baths and hides when it's time for grooming. Before this visit, I never had any issues with him being afraid of combing or baths. When I picked him up, he was actually crying and couldn't get out of the grooming salon fast enough. I honestly can't believe this is how things turned out, especially after I was so specific about what I wanted. If you truly care about your pet, I would recommend you go elsewhere where they listen to your requests and treat your pet with care and attention. My dog is now fearful baths & grooming. I'm left with a lot of disappointment, plus the added stress of finding another groomer to undo the damage. I won't be returning and wish I had read the reviews beforehand.

    Pretty clean Petsmart. The staff are very friendly and helpful. My fiancé recently got a puppy (a big puppy though. He's a husky mix- we aren't entirely sure since he was a rescue). We needed to pick up some essentials that the puppy needed. We grabbed one of those water bowls for him and a harness. The collar and lease were not working since he would pull a lot and get choked. We let him pick out his toys too! He grabbed the crinkle toys and squeaky ones. He loves them. Added in a giant bone and we were good to go.

    I am leaving this review for Karina in the grooming department! If you have a teacup, toy or miniature puppy I recommend 10/10!! This was Rocky's first grooming at 3 months so i was worried it wouldn't go so great being that he's a toy maltipoo and only 1.98lbs. Karina greeted us and made sure he was comfortable before she took him to the back. She assured me he was in good hands and would call once he was ready. I stood around for a bit just to make sure things were fine, and he was in good hands! Karina was very gentle and made sure Rocky was comfortable throughout the entire time. I love how she interacted with him and was sure to let him know that he was being a good boy. Overall I am satisfied with Rocky's first grooming experience. It's safe to say we found his groomer!

    He loves getting groomed and shopping for toys here!

Walks became so stressful, and we tried every thing we could think of to fix it. Brad was able to teach us his methods within 30 minutes, and within the first week his behavior was a complete 180!

    I genuinely can't recommend Brad highly enough. By the time…read moreI reached out, I had already spent months trying to fix Sunny's leash pulling and reactivity. I'd worked with two trainers, including a 3 week board-and-train program ($5,000 investment), followed every instruction, and practiced daily, yet I didn't see changes. I was managing the behavior without ever understanding what was causing it. That changed within the first two hours with Brad. He didn't start with commands or tools. Instead, he focused on the psychology behind Sunny's reactions: what was driving them, what was reinforcing them, and what I was unknowingly communicating. No one had ever explained it that clearly. That was the turning point. For the first time, I wasn't guessing or correcting blindly. I could see what Sunny was experiencing in real time and understand how my timing, energy, and responses were shaping his behavior. That clarity changed everything. Walks feel completely different now. Sunny is no longer pulls since my training with Brad, the reactive outbursts are gone, and the experience itself is calm. I'm no longer bracing for problems because I know how to prevent them. I am SO appreciative!

On May 21, I received an email that their location had closed THE DAY BEFORE and that Long Beach and Lakewood would honor up to 5 class credits. Wtf. I went back to all my previous emails from Zoom Room HB and there was not a single announcement that they will be closing down. We immediately emailed the business requesting a refund for the unused credits and it has been over a week and we kept being told by Vince to be patient. My partner asked for a timeline, and in which Vince had requested another 5 days. I had filed a dispute for a portion of refund with my credit card company before they completely disappear. As someone in property management, the business owner would have at least known 60 days in advance (maybe even earlier depending on their lease contract) that they will not be renewing. They decided to wait until the day after closure to announce they are permanently closed to not deal with in person questions from their customers.

    We definitely recommend Andi!…read more We originally reached out to Andi for consultations regarding both of our Maltipoos, Kiki and Coco. During our initial phone consultation, Andi was incredibly honest and genuine. After learning more about our dogs, she felt that Kiki was the one who would benefit most from formal training and suggested that we could apply what we learned with Kiki to Coco as well. We really appreciated that she didn't try to upsell us on training for both dogs when she easily could have. That immediately showed us how much she genuinely cares about helping dogs and their families. At the time, Kiki was about six months old and was extremely reactive to just about everything in the outside world. We were looking for someone whose methods aligned with our values, and we loved Andi's positive reinforcement approach. Kiki completed Andi's six-week program, and the growth we've seen has been incredible. What sets Andi apart is that she isn't focused solely on teaching dogs tricks or obedience commands. She truly cares about each dog's emotional well-being and how they're feeling throughout the process. We learned so much--not just about Kiki, but about ourselves as dog owners. Andi helped us understand how our own behaviors and responses can shape our dogs, which was eye-opening and incredibly valuable. Of course, the work doesn't stop when the training sessions end. It takes consistency and ongoing practice at home, but Andi gave us the tools and confidence to continue building on Kiki's progress. The effort has been absolutely worth it. One of the best parts is that we were able to use many of the same training methods with our older Maltipoo, Coco, and she learned and benefited from them as well. Andi actively encouraged this, which we really appreciated. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and ethical trainer who truly puts dogs' well-being first, we wholeheartedly recommend Andi and Diamond Dog Training.

While it's understandable to feel upset when receiving negative feedback, it's important to reflect on the reasons behind my review. I noticed that during our initial interaction, you made a comment about my background that many found to be a stereotypical and racist remark. In fact, I saw that you previously posted video footage of our encounter on your Instagram, but you removed it after receiving backlash for those comments. This indicates that others found your remarks concerning as well. I want to emphasize that my intention was never to harm your business; rather, it was to share my experience. Thankfully, I have since found another trainer who practices positive reinforcement, which aligns much better with my values and my dog's needs.
