About This Location
We know this address has a difficult history, so we want to address that directly:
PawsVIP is not affiliated with the prior operator of this space in any way. The previous company shut down after a tragic incident involving the actions of an individual employee.
We signed a new lease only after operations fully ceased. The location now has entirely new ownership, management, staff, training, and operating standards, and has been completely renovated.
