🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- Call ahead for urgent issues—many reviewers were accommodated quickly, even on weekends and holidays.
- Ask for an itemized estimate and discuss options before proceeding; several owners appreciated transparent quotes while a few reported billing surprises.
- If communication is unclear, request written instructions or a recap to avoid misunderstandings, as some mentioned language barriers.
- Share your pet’s temperament (especially if large or anxious) so the team can plan gentle handling and keep the visit low‑stress.
- For grooming, book with April in advance—many owners specifically praised her work and she may be in high demand.
