They let a small child hold my bunny while she was getting her nails trimmed. The child ofcourse, didn’t know how to properly hold her or maintain her when she kicks. The child ended up dropping my bunny on her back, I had to watch her and make sure she was okay after that. They didn’t even apologize or anything and bunnies are very fragile creatures. It was very irresponsible and I never went back. If you want your bunnies nails trimmed, I’d recommend the animal hospital since they are very gentle as they own a few bunnies themselves!Edit: Let me clarify that this situation happened last year and also that I’m aware children cannot work under any establishment. The *little boy* was called OVER by the adult staff member (my mom was there also and describes the staff member as light-skin with light eyes) and was told to hold my bunny which resulted in him dropping her. I just wanted to leave my review as I was reminded of the situation, and didn’t do so promptly after this happened. Picture of bunny that was dropped(Grey) who came in with her sister(Brown):

My baby Nutmeg looks so cute with his new cut just in time for spring, this is his first grooming at Animal Kingdom, I opted to support in “my” community. Pricing is pretty comparable, although I thought it might’ve been cheaper because of his size (3lbs) and he didn’t have that much hair from the onset, I also though it should’ve included teeth brushing. He smells amazing! Need to get the name of that scent. Would recommend to my pet parent friends!

I took my mini goltdendoodle for her first grooming yesterday. Animal Kingdom did an amazing job on her, they were kind & super informative when I dropped her off. She looked like a new dog when i picked her up. Only one issue & (that was immediately retified) no one came out to tell me how she did during the service, & because it was her first grooming that would have been nice to know. I will definitely be a returning customer though.Thanks for a wonderful job on my Kola girl.

My vet recommended them (and they recommended my vet! Some services (e.g. cut- ting dog nails) are only offered on certain days, so it's good to call ahead. They've always had what I needed at prices comparable to big chains

This is the second incident that has occurred with my dog at this place. First about a year ago I took her here for a regular grooming appointment and when I picked her up she seemed happy as usual but once I reached my destination I noticed that her eye was cut and nobody said anything to me about it. I called Monday morning and spoke to the owner and explained that I understand mistakes happen but someone could have said something he agreed and said that the person who groomed her had been in the business a long tome and she should have known better. Later that day he advised me that the groomer said my dog moved while she was trimming and he said if I could bring my dog so he could see which I did I took my dog to the vet and he wrote me a check for the bill. It took me almost a year before I took her back there I was so hurt. Finally this is her second appt since then and this time they burned and cut my dog I called the same day as soon as I reached the mall my dog wouldn’t walk so my fiancé after picking her up notices blood on his shirt and I asked if they put my dog inside a dryer or hand blew her I was told that the groomer that did my dog had gone home for the day and the owner was not there but bring my dog back so they could see but my question of how they blow dried her was never answered. I was so hurt I started crying and I didn’t know if I would lose my cool on them so I never went back however Disney is never going back there I paid them 70 dollars to hurt my dog and once again no one said nothing how cruel can a person be to do this to a animal.

Best place to take your dog to get bathed.I have a difficult guy but they always seem to get him done. And take control of him as soon as he comes in. They know how to handle these guys.

Love the care they have for animals. Very knowledgeable. My first lizard brought from there. He is doing very well. But still scared to touch him. 😆

Took my fur baby here for her first professional grooming. Happy with the results because she was a bit matted and I thought she’d look horrible being shaven but I love it. Pleased with the service and she smells great :).

Cool spot hidden gem. Great staff. Its no petco with their war stories too. Like every other store has. My dog grooming was on point the second go around. First time ouch paws hurt a little. Go check it out for yourself.Price is right. They're not taking advantage like some other companies. My dog came out feeling himself chess all out stuntin and happy.

Good variety of fish. Knowledgeable employees. I traded in 2 12 inch algae eaters in exchange for some other fish. Now everyone is happy.

I brought my dog here to get groomed and he left with fleas. I will be requesting a refund from the store tomorrow because now I have to spend money on flea products to cure the problem.Update : I called the store to request the refund and the person I spoke to insisted that the fleas came from my home since my dog is an inside dog.

They did a great job with my dog and he’s a handful with terrible anxiety from a traumatizing experience from a previous grooming salon. I honestly thought they were going to call me to come back or refuse to groom because of how bad his anxiety can get. Nope They got it done ! He smells so good and looks GREAT! Thank You!!

I usually take my dogs to PetSmart for grooming because it's so heavily advertised. I read some articles about pets dying while in their care and decided to try somewhere else. I already purchase dog food from Animal Kingdom so I decided to try out the groomer.Amazing!!The gentleman that answered the phone was so helpful, asked me what time I could be there and fit me right in. When I got there, the young lady with the afro puffs was SOOOOOO SWEET!! They called to let me know Arya was ready and when I got her, she had on a pink bandanna and she smelled awesome. My boyfriend told me to send a pic as soon as I got her because he was leery. Even he was pleased with the work done. Her nails are so rounded and she smells so good. We'll definitely be back.

I got the cutest lil bun bun here and now he lives the best life ever zooming and binking all around the house. Don't worry. Normally the leaves he eats are much darker and greener... And without the stem in the middle.. lol but yes these rabbits are healthy regardless of what any negative reviews say about them. As long as you don't stress the rabbit out, you shouldn't have any issues purchasing one from this establishment.

Terrible place!!! Avoid at all cost!! First of all I dropped my cat off at 9am for a simple cut. It took them until 5pm to be finished. They didnt even do a good job! My cat looks extremely patchy!!! Mind you, ive had her cut before at a differnent place. I only went to animal kingdom because they had sooner availability. Second, make sure you record the call when you are making an appointment. They tell you one price over the phone, and when you drop them off. When you go to pick them up they will change the price. I spoke with the owner and was told 180 for the cut. When i went to pick up my cat they changed it to 400 dollars!! Complete scam!! They were extremely rude!! Please take your pets to another groomer. Never again!!

I haven't personally patronized this grooming place, but my Aunt has been bringing her dogs here for the last 15 years, and they've always done a great job. And trust me my aunt is very particular about who grooms her doggie children😁 so I'd definitely recommend this Establishment 😎
