This Petland was super clean and well taken care of! It wasn’t too busy so we were able to see a dog. The workers there were super attentive and kept checking in on us and helped us pick the right puppy to see. They had a few hamsters, ferrets, and Guinea pigs. This location does not have reptiles or fish. I highly recommend coming here for all your dog needs! Posted on Google Andrea Johnson Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is for Destiny M. She is next level fantastic. Her demeanor, patience, knowledge was unbelievable. Their prices for dogs seem high, but do your research and you will find them to be competitive. Destiny makes the entire experience worth it. Loved her! Posted on Google Earl Saverson,Jr Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Beautiful store.Have a nice selection of puppies to choose Posted on Google TekBuf Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Small pet store, great for grab and go. Friendly staff. I didn't need any real assistance. ```
