Background check, application…read moreprocessed, only $60.00 they both were microchip, vaccinated, spayed and neutered, ventinary check up to deem the health. The past 3 months have been fun. Midnight, is female, sits on the top of the living room chair watching out the window. Friendly, lovable, meows for me to pet her; such a stress reliever. Leo, the male, is shy. He will spend most of his time downstairs. The cats are quiet, clean, low-maintenance for the life I live. The animal control personal were very professional. The animals were shown care. I appreciated the genuine attitude the building and staff showed. If interested in a pet give a sheltered animal a chance because animals adopted from shelters typically cost less than ones purchased or even acquired for free--once you add in the cost of vaccinations, spay/neuter surgery, microchip, dewormer, and other "tide bits" included in your adoption fee, you'll probably be surprised what a bargain it is to have chosen an adopted pet. Most shelters and rescue groups conduct thorough behavioral analyses of each pet to get a better ideal that they will be the right piece for your family. Schererville Animal Control did this and told me if anything happens to please bring the pets back. I can not recommend to adopt a shelter animal anymore than buying from a pet store etc. Most pets end up homeless through no fault of their own--"moving" and "landlord issues" are the top reasons people give for relinquishing their pets, please check out your local shelter. It was definitely 100% worth it for my children and I.

But all the shelters I reached out too, including this one, offered no help or assistance. They don't care for real & the only real option is to just leave them in a box by their front door.

This is the WORST animal hospital I have ever been to!!…read moreFirst of all, roughly 4 1/2 years ago, I had a cat that was seen by them. They charged me over $700 for bloodwork & told me that my cat was diabetic. I got a 2nd opinion from a vet who specialized in cats. This vet took ONE LOOK at my cat & said, "Your cat has cancer." I was FLOORED! The bloodwork (that was a hell of a lot cheaper than $700!) confirmed it. Ever since then, I NEVER went back to Munster Animal for vet visits. Fast-forward to this week, I need to board my cats, & the usual places I board either stopped boarding or are booked. So, I call Muster to ask if they board & they say yes, but the vet needs to see your cats for a wellness check prior. I figured that's fine, both cats have recently seen their regular vet...they are fine. I do a walk-in & I'm already annoyed with them from the start! The girl is having an EXTREMELY hard time checking in 2 cats at the same time. They seem VERY disorganized. The vet came in like a wrecking ball--trying to scruff my cats, catastrophizing every little thing about my cats, insisting on multiple bloodwork & x-rays, giving them all kinds of shots that I had to ask, "What are you giving my cats??", jabbing his thumb in my cats' hipbone to "demonstrate" there might be something wrong...only for the x-ray to show nothing (obviously). And to add insult to injury, this "pre-board wellness check" came out to OVER ONE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!! Due immediately! With 3% interest if paid with a card! WTF!?!? The next day, the vet called with the bloodwork, telling me that my cat has...you guessed it...DIABETES. AND that my cat is at risk of spontaneously bleeding out & MUST be seen back for treatment IMMEDIATELY! After that dramatic phone call, I immediately booked a vet appointment with my regular vet. They called Muster for the records, talked to the Munster vet, checked her out, and took additional bloodwork. Turns out my cat is fine. fat, but fine. On the day of boarding, I schlepped my cats to Munster to board for the weekend, only to (at the last second) ask me about this deadly bleed-out scenario the doctor conjured up. I explain that my vet was talking to their vet about it & I had my vet take the bloodwork because I feel more comfortable if my regular vet sees my cats about serious matters like this. They then began telling me how they can't board my cats because the doctor wanted to see the cat back due to the seriousness of the matter & he won't be back until Monday. I told them, just call my vet now & get the results & they argued with me that I "should have brought in the results myself." WOW! The male nurse (murse) started to cut me off, raise his voice, argue with me, & then storm off!! DOUBLE WOW!! I ended it by telling them (1) If this was a deal-breaker to board my cats, why didn't they call my vet for the results? (2) Why is the Munster vet adamant about a follow-up when I took my cat to her regular vet...does he not trust my vet? Or is this another CASH GRAB?!? (3) If you guys "care so much" about animals here, you'd understand my concerns regarding my LAST cat dying of cancer when your vet misdiagnosed him with DIABETES! And finally - being rude, dismissive, combative, condescending, and sarcastic to customers in a failed attempt to deflect from your own incompetence & ineptitude is not a good look for any of you or your "walk-ins welcome" hospital. I recommend the Hobart Animal Clinic as an alternative. Your pets might even live longer.

It's a great store! I love to take the dog(sometimes multiple dogs) into this place…read more The layout is easy to navigate and it seem like "everything is where it should be" like you can walk in never having been there and kinda already know where to look. Banfield Vet in the back of the store is a REALLY god place too! Very friendly, quick to give doggy treats and it's a quick IN and OUT. Not it the bad way, they take care of your pet and do everything "right and proper", what I mean is that they don't make you wait, and wait and wait... to get you checked in or out. It's all pretty simple. Now, back to the PetSmart part- I called in on a Sunday to check if they carried packs for dogs; like for hiking 'n such. Not only did they only have me on hold for less than 2 mins(I seriously think the girl who answered RAN to go check) but they told me: 1- The Prices. 2- What Sizes they had. AND!! 3- The COLORS!? See they could have just told me "Ya we got 'em" and left it at that. NOPE! they had to go 'n show off how awesome the customer service is at that particular PetSmart. The ONLY gripe I have about this and EVERY PetSmart is that **some** of the prices can be a bit... "inflated" for what you're buying. But, that's every store I guess. All in all the PetSmart located at: 711 Hwy 41 Schererville, IN is an excellent store. It's Clean, Friendly and Easy to Find.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by the front desk with excellent customer service. The 'cat' coordinator who took us to the cat section was VERY knowledgeable about the cats and spent an incredible amount of time with us. We didn't feel rushed at all. P.A.W.S followed through with everything they said they would do. The whole process from seeing our little Whisper to picking her up and taking her to her new home was six days (and that's because two of the days we weren't available). The process went very smoothly. They answered our questions in person and returned our phone calls and emails timely. They are very concerned about their pets and the homes their animals are placed in. We feel really honored to house one of the pets from their facility. Thank you P.A.W.S for everything you do for animals!

Horrible. My mom and I have been searching for a puppy that was either a German shepherd, husky,…read moreor lab. We went to this facility before close at 4 and don't get my wrong the lady who came out to talk to us was amazing and shared great info on how to utilize their website to see what animals they had available! They had a beautiful puppy that was a lab/retriever mix. So my mom went through the process and applied to adopt this little fur baby. After two weeks, there had been no reply from the people who supposedly view these applications. So my mom had emailed for an update 3 times!!!! WITH NO RESPONSE. I don't know who is in charge of that but it's straight ignorance. I understand they want to find a good home for these animals but jeez at least communicate! We have been dog lovers are whole life. In this household we currently have a German shepherd who is 6 years old and had a German/ husky mix that had passed two Christmas' ago at the age of 12. With no email back, my mom and I went up to the facility to meet the pup in person. And the rules there are RIDICULOUS. You can not get to the level of the dog which is crouching to the floor. They don't allow the dog to lick you or come too close in contact with you. It's like how are you supposed to get to know the pup and see if it's a right fit for you? They don't allow 1:1 with the pup and it's crazy. After not hearing back for a month and a half, we ended up saving/adopting a pup from a humane society in Munster, Indiana. She's beautiful, shots up to date, fixed, got 1:1 time with her, and took her home the same day! She got along with our shepherd and the kids love her. DO NOT GO TO PAWS

She sets expectations up front, which is a good thing too, and is very communicative (although she can't always be by her phone to respond quite asap, which I appreciate bc she's giving the dogs attention). My dog & I will be frequent fliers for sure. Highly recommend.

She can "get on their level" and keep them engaged. Diamond's first daycare day went very well! I received many photos and updates on her progress (which I appreciated so much), and Diamond made a new friend there. By the end of the day, she was tuckered out!!! Sam is a dream to do business with, it almost felt like we were old friends: she's warm, creative, kind, professional, and truly enjoys what she does. I'm looking forward to bringing Diamond back for boarding and more daycare. Diamond is anxious to see her friends again too!
