CityPets614

J Barnett Hello. This note is a little tardy but better late than never. Our experience with CityPets614 has been positive all around. From the vets, receptionists, technicians and support staff, we have nothing but good things to say. Let me explain. We’re far from home here in Columbus. For the past six years my wife worked as a travel nurse and we moved from city to city every three to six months, crossing the country several times, finally landing in Columbus a year ago for family reasons. Our pup Reese was nine when we started, a reluctant traveler who never took to driving but always game for new adventures - his first was mastering stairs - an obstacle he’d never encountered at our desert home in Arizona. In those six years he walked with us along beaches in Monterrey, Big Sur, Santa Monica, south Florida and the rocky coasts of northern Maine; tramped through the redwoods in California, the forests of New Hampshire, Vermont, eastern North Carolina and the ponderosa high country of Arizona; we explored the Canyonlands of southern Utah, the Mojave desert in Nevada; strolled the empty streets of LA during Covid, and swam in the Colorado below the great dams. He was a constant companion, a comforting presence, a big joyful personality in a little dog. He started slowing down a little over a year ago. His eyes grew cloudy and his energy waned. His interest in walking declined and more and more of his days were spent sleeping. Steroids helped after he was diagnosed with lymphoma but that too was temporary. Soon his appetite soured and he could no longer keep his food down. On Christmas Eve we made the decision. In our time in Columbus we've been fortunate to find CityPets. For the previous thirty years we’d had the same vet for our horses, goats, cats, dogs, etc. Even on the road, we’d make sure to swing by Tucson once or twice a year so he could see Reese. We couldn’t imagine being comfortable with any other vet. We were wrong. From the first time we took Reese to CityPets we were warmly welcomed and impressed with the service and attention to detail. This was reinforced with repeat visits and the easy access we had when calling with questions. On that last day we were a mess and I can’t overstate how much we appreciated the kindness extended to us by all the staff we encountered. They helped make a miserable day more bearable. We can’t thank you enough. We’ve always lived on remote properties with acreage. Our country vet would come to the house if necessary and when our companions passed we’d lay them to rest under the shade of a mesquite or palo verde. In Columbus, we had no place for Reese and that thought broke my heart. Here, CityPets helped us out again by connecting us with "Forever Friends", another organization for which we have high praise. So, thank you again. Jim & Wendy Barnett

Emma Hill John the groomer always does a great job with our dogs. I know they are in good hands! I highly recommend city pets for your grooming needs!

Scott Lowe We were able to get in the same day with no issues. Everyone there was friendly. You can tell they really care.

Megan Dye I can't say enough good things about CityPets!!! My dog had a VERY bad experience with another groomer as a puppy and since, it has been a nightmare any time he needs to be groomed because the poor guy is just so scared. Every single member of the CityPets staff has been kind and patient with us. While Zeus still isn't happy about being groomed, it's a much better (and safer) experience now that we go to CityPets. Special shout out to groomers Taylor and John who have been amazing to work with. Taylor has given me actionable steps to work on with my dog at home to make the process easier and most importantly safe for Zeus. Bottom line, if you're looking for expert and kind care/grooming for your "furbaby", this is the place to go!
