“Great for anyone who loves dogs! There are things for your pets, and items for the pet lovers! I hadn't been there in years due to my out of the county move. They have really increased the varieties of food, especially fresh food that they sell for your pet. I did omit a 5 star rating, because I loved the varieties of decor and useful items decorated with animals. That was a great love of mine. It is a unique country type looking home divided into rooms with bath, dog wear, toys, food, etc. other play yards are included outside. There is a grooming section, and training too!”
“Wonder place to take your dog to release its energy. Private park use by appointment if your pet is not sociable around other dogs. There is also a store for all your dog's needs.”
“Super knowledgeable staff and well cared for animals. We got a bearded dragon from here a couple months ago and the multiple people I talked to throughout the whole process of selecting our dragon and setting up the tank were really helpful. Highly recommend!!”
“Great service, quick scheduled appointments, fair prices and fast service. I took my dog here because I was tired of Petco's prices and how long it takes to get an appt among other things. Love who's walking who!”
“My Cat gets very matted and needs to be shaved from time to time. They did an excellent job with him. Not only got rid of all his mats but gave him an adorable hair cut too. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you”
“Take my 2 yorkies here and my little mixed girl and they have gotten it right every time. They are so friendly and love on my babies. Life-long customer they have gained.”
“Love the business. Everyone that I've encountered there has been pleasant and all around helpful with my doggie.Not to mention they're always very sweet with him and their grooming is amazing. My doggie has never come out looking like they missed any spots and he's perfectly groomed.”

1801 N 11th St, Reading“This weekend has free adoptions. I went looking for a small dog,they were all so cute,but too large and energetic for my current 14 year old dog. So I ended up adopting a tuxedo cat. He has already been neutered and has his shots. Didn't bring a carrier so I bought one from there for like 8 bucks.”
“If you are a pet owner and find yourself browsing the farmer's market, this stand is a must see! They have a variety of treats/ misc items made fresh with real ingredients. My dog is incredibly picky...she hates peanut butter, dry kibble, most dog chews....EVERYTHING. I was hesitant to waste money on just another throw away treat. The shop owner was kind enough to give me a fresh dog biscuit to take home for my pooch to sample. Needless to say, She loved it! The shop owner took time to explain the perishable nature of some of the goods and ideas to freeze/thaw treats to have them last longer. Kind insight, quality products, and great service!”
“I am SO glad I found Al's Doggie Dresser. I have a Great Pyrenees who was turned down by another business because big dogs are "too much work", but when you are experienced like Alison and have professional equipment you can get the job done. My dog was happy and beautiful, bathed, brushed and de-shedded, clipped, and completely dry in an hour and fifteen minutes! And not to mention, very reasonable prices. I will definitely be back to have regular groomings to keep my home virtually dog hair free :)”
“I give Oasis five stars because of their wonderful jingle they have on their telephone answering machine call it up and listen to it I think you'd appreciate it don't have much good to say about it though other than it was funny”
“We rescued a Cavalier King Charles spaniel and started to inquire about grooming services in our area. This business provides full services for all types of small pets. From complete grooming, maintenance to toys, healthy foods and the staff is very knowledgeable, helpful and they really care about your pets needs. Check them out.”
“With 8 dogs, we shop mostly on Chewy. But when I need something quick, have run out, or I'm just window shopping, this is our favorite pet store. I particularly like browsing the clearance bins. Always great stuff in there! Was there the other day and saved way more than I spent!”

4724 Penn Ave, Reading“One person manning 2 registers?Having run a business myself, I found it a little risky that someone would have access to another employees register.I mentioned this to the grey haired lady and was told that the new district manager had made it mandatory for the cashier to take over the other register if that register employee needed to leave his or her register for whatever reason. That sounds awfully tempting to a thief. Just walk over and grab and go. Or even knowing another employee had the use of that person's register. What happens at the end of the day if there is a discrepancy in the amount of money in the register compared to the amount that SHOULD be in there? Which employee gets blamed ? This doesn't promote friendliness among employees either. It promotes suspicion . You don't want your employees at each other's throats.Well that's my 2 cents worth anyway.”
“Had to ask for help in the fish department, and then told there should be two workers there. Easily paged. Once there, was very informative information on what I wanted. Strongly advised me to NOT purchase what I wanted because I didn't currently have the right set up. Which is fine. And I agreed. No kittens. Not much of a selection for aquatic turtles. All aquatic plants were in small bags. Which is mainly for small tanks. After obtaining my fish, had to sign up for the card, because I knew I'd be back. So, mixed feelings for my visit. Maybe next time, there will be more smiles and less condescending attitude.”
“The fact that they were able to perform the miracle that is trimming my Guppy's nails is enough to earn 5 stars. He came out looking and smelling like a champ! Very happy pup and parents”

4607 Perkiomen Ave, Reading“I purchased a fish tank in another store on a whim. Then, I came here looking for things needed to establish a healthy ecosystem and later then introduce the fish... well ended up with chemicals, gravel, silk decorations, resting leafs and even the betta. Their selection is beautiful ? and healthy.”
“The store was clean and stuff was nice and helpful. The store is well stocked with everything you need for your pets. And it's nice that you can get your pets shots with shotvet that come on some Saturdays.”
“The staff is fantastic. everyone is always eager to help. and Chelsae the groomer is a godsend. She is the only person that my chinese crested trusts. anywhere. we need chelsae desperately. my kids nails are out of control these days......”

“Petco is good. Even though I won't use them the store was neat and clean. The one groomer, Christine did not seem to want to work and was evident when she groomed my dog. Would not recommend her but for the most part we did like their groomers.”
“Stopped in before the gentleman was closed for the night. He was more than willing to stay open for us while we looked around and being that we are new to the hobby, he gave us great information. We will be repeat customers. Always love a family owned business!”
