Derick went above and beyond--he spent nearly two hours walking me through care, setup, feeding, and all the little things that matter when you're new to reptiles.

They had everything I needed to get started, and I left feeling totally confident and excited (not overwhelmed!) about bringing my beardie home.

I've visited this reptile store multiple times because they occasionally have good inventory and…read moreI've taken a snake home from them before, but unfortunately I had another unpleasant experience with the same particular employee today. Earlier today, I called to ask if they had male veiled chameleons in stock. The employee put me on hold for a couple of minutes, came back, and confirmed they had "a couple" available. A few hours later, my boyfriend and I drove out to the store specifically for that reason. When we arrived, the same employee was immediately unfriendly and gave us attitude the entire interaction. We asked again about the male veiled chameleons, and she again told us they had them in stock and directed us to the back. My aunt also asked about jumping spiders, and the employee responded with the same rude attitude while showing them to us. After checking the reptiles, we spoke with another employee who was actually very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained that they DID NOT currently have any male veiled chameleons available and wouldn't be getting more until next week. He gave us detailed information and was polite the entire time. The issue wasn't just the misinformation, it was also the employee's behavior throughout the visit. She repeatedly stared at my family in an uncomfortable and rude way while we were speaking with other staff members, and every interaction with her felt dismissive and hostile. What's especially frustrating is that this is the same employee who previously sold me a snake and provided me with incorrect husbandry information at the time of purchase. Before visiting the store, I had already done research on the snake I was getting, and later realized that much of the advice I was given was the opposite of what the snake actually needed. Thankfully the snake itself has done well, but inaccurate care information can seriously affect the health of reptiles if customers don't know any better. I understand everyone has bad days, but this is now my second negative experience with the same employee. It's disappointing because behavior like this reflects poorly on the business and does not create a welcoming or professional environment for customers, especially compared to the much more helpful service provided by the other employees I've interacted with.

I was recently contacted by David Fails, the store manager, about a potential job opportunity…read more Before considering anything, I asked to see the store's current animal setups and husbandry standards. What I was shown were very minimal enclosures with little to no enrichment. This does not reflect modern, welfare-focused reptile care, which prioritizes proper substrate, enrichment, and environments that allow for natural behaviors. When I asked further questions about their standards, I did not receive clear or transparent answers. Instead, the conversation quickly became unprofessional. Rather than addressing concerns about animal care, I was met with dismissive and inappropriate responses from the store manager (included in screenshots). This experience raised serious concerns about both the level of care and the professionalism behind this business. There are many reptile keepers and shops that prioritize proper, up-to-date husbandry and genuinely care about the animals they work with. Based on what I saw and experienced, I would strongly advise others to do thorough research and consider supporting businesses that clearly demonstrate proper animal care and professionalism.

I stopped by because I was so worried about my chihuahua's itchy skin from allergies and needed something to soothe her skin until her upcoming vet appointment. Both employees were so helpful, directing me to several options for topical creams, sprays, and ointments plus medicated shampoo and supplements that would help. Not only did they help me find the right products, but they gave me recommendations for a nearby vet and pet dermatologist, too! I left feeling so relieved and my chihuahua's allergy symptoms immediately improved when I gave her a bath with the shampoo and sprayed her itchy spots with soothing spray (both products recommended by the employees). She is feeling so much better and all the redness and flaky skin has disappeared, along with her itchiness. 10/10 customer service and I'm so happy the products worked so well!
