Most groomers will book you by appointment. You pick a time, drop off your pet and a few hours later, they're done and ready for pick up. This place instead has no sort of system for getting your pet groomed in a timely and reasonable manner. Everyone drops off their pet in the morning and it's basically a free-for-all, with ONE person doing all the grooming. They had my 13-yr old blind dog in a crate for 7 hours and I had to come pick her up without being groomed because I didn't want her there for 8-9 hours. The worst par... read more

Thanks for taking the time to talk with me about the grooming situation and I apologize for your experience. We take all reviews seriously and will use your input to help us improve. -Mike
This place is absolutely not recommended. The staff a pregnant girl, and the mgr Mike are all rude, unprofessional and prejudice. Save yourself the need to repent and go to a more professional place where the staff acknowledges their wrongdoings and doesn't insult and defame you. I would not step foot in this place doe any service again. Very unholy.
Business response:
We are sorry that you feel this way. We were happy to care for provide meals for your puppy for the three days after the expected departure day. Caring for our guests is a privilege that we don't take lightly, but we also take the treatment and safety of our staff very seriously. We wish you the best of luck in finding a place for you and your pup.
Scalped my dog and didn't even tell me! They covered it with a harness and once I finally spoke to the manager the next day it was a sorry! No sorry! Accidents happen and you tell the truth they truly though I wouldn't notice this? No sir! Never again!
I tried to like Bark and Board Brookhaven, but they failed me time and time again. I began going to B&B 1-2 times a week at the end of 2017. My husky loves anyone & everyone and would be perfectly happy anywhere I took her for daycare. I chose B&B Brookhaven because it was close to my house, and it was on the way to work (I used to take my dog to PetSuites of Norcross - HIGHLY recommend - when I lived there, and I take my dog to VIPet Orlando - also HIGHLY recommend - every Christmas when I go to Disney World. So I know a ... read more

Our senior leader Megan tried reaching out and left you a voicemail. At your convenience please call the number on your voicemail, and thank you in advance for your time.
I was a customer at the Midtown location for years & they were great. I am very disappointed with the Brookhaven location. I dropped off my dog to get groomed and noted it was important his nails get clipped (whole reason I came). I was going to pick him up in an hour. She asked if it was okay if he played for ten minutes beforehand with no mention of extra charge. I said sure. An hour later I came to pick him up and they tried to charge me an extra FORTY dollars for a half day of day care. FORTY for 10 minutes of play. What... read more

If I could give this place zero (0) stars I would. DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG HERE. I took my sweet baby here for grooming and when I picked her up, she was literally unrecognizable. They had basically shaved her bald. I gave explicit instructions when we came in that I wanted to keep her coat longer due to the cold weather. When I picked her up, they in turn lied and said she was matted so they have to shave her hair! This is a very well-kept and cared for dog, and this could have been no further from the truth! Someone just didn... read more

I'm not one to usually leave negative reviews. But I feel like I must give people a heads up. We have been frequenting bark and board since the opened. Twice our dog came home with a stomach bug after boarding. The last time I called for 2 days leaving vm with no return response. I formally got in touch with someone who after reviewing files said "oh yeah- she was sick." We are sorry we forgot to mention it to you. The owner called and apologized. I was annoyed but not mad. Then the abuse scandal happened. If you are not f... read more

I had my dog stay at the Brookhaven location back in September when we decided to go away for a weekend. Now that I am seeing negative reports and news stories, I wish I had posted earlier. Muffin stayed here for a weekend. While checking up on her I noticed an employee throw her over a gate into a play area on multiple occasions. Watching her being abused while being 13 hours away is one of the worst feelings I have ever felt. Any dog owner, or half decent human understands you don't throw dogs, let alone a 6 pound dog. ... read more

Nadine, as discussed, we are truly sorry to hear you had a negative experience with us and appreciate you taking the time to chat in more detail. Our number one goal is to offer exceptional care and service, so please know we take this feedback seriously. We continue working diligently to better ourselves and our business. At this time, our staff has completed an intensive dog training session held by Michael Litzky CPCBTMI, CPDT-KA and the owner and head trainer at Idle Paws Dog Training. This was a mandatory, 4 hour, hands... read more
Do not go here. The staff has poor communication and does not do right by the customer. I boarded my cats this past week and anticipated the prices stated online. When I arrived to pick up my cats they had tacked an extra $60 onto my bill. The manager kept saying things would be different for future customers, yet failed to do the right thing by me and made me pay the fee. This business apparently lacks basic understanding of customer lifetime value. I will never go here again nor recommend this place to any friends that own... read more
