Riverpet is one of he best place to keep your dog

I READ THE COMPLAIN FROM THE ANONYMOUS PERSON SHE/HE SAW HER DOG BEING KICKED AND HIT TWICE AND SHE STILL KEPT THE DOG THERE? I THINK YOU DON'T EVEN OWN A DOG, YOU *** ***! NOW THIS PERSON DOESN'T HAVE THE COURAGE TO SAY WHO SHE IS? THE ANONYMOUS ONE? IN MY OPINION ANY ANONYMOUS COMPLAINS DON'T COUNT, DEAR ANONYMOUS YOU ARE A FAKE A FUNNY AND A FRAUD ;)MOST OF THE PERFORMING STAFF AT RIVERPET ARE OUTSTANDING AND IN ADDITION THE DOGS THAT STAY AT RIVERPET ARE TAKENCARE OF AND LOVED BY THE RIVERPET STAFF MORE THAT SOME OF THE DOG OWNERS.

RIVERPET IN EDGEWATER- WARNING

dr karen zelinkski whom runs and owns river pet resort and rehab in edgewater new jersey is the dumbest person who ever went to an ivy league college. She is unprofessional and she is the most unethical business woman i have ever met in my life. She is notified again and again and again and again of certain employees who kick/drag/throw the dogs and does nothing to reprimand them. There are mentally unstable people who work there and they try to hide the abuse but I saw them hitting my dog on the webcam and being rough with him at least twice. DO NOT TRUST YOUR DOG OR CAT IN THEIR CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am the person who wrote this warning. the below statement is being written because i have since tried to remove this bad review& Wrote emails to this website to no avail.

*****I am deeply regretful for writing these hurtful, UNTRUE STATEMENTS. My close friend had a personal problem with dr Zelinski and I impulsively retaliated. All of the statements in the above warning are FALSE AND FABRICATED. RIVER PET IS A WONDERFUL PLACE FOR YOUR DOG OR CAT.

I apologize for the harm this post caused. *****

I have taken my dogs to river pet since they opened up. I cannot say enough about the exceptional care and attention my pets and I have received over the years.

Anyone who has anything negative to say on the Internet clearly doesn't have the balls to say it to Dr Z's face.

It's ashame people feel the need to write these cowardly personal attacks. Clearly this person has issues of their own!!

I was in complete shocked when I read this terrible post so i felt the urge to reply, bc I have been bringing my dogs to River Pet for nearly 5 years and not once have I ever felt worried about my dogs being mistreated. On the contrary, I am so happy knowing my dogs are in good hands while I'm at work.

The staff and Dr. Zelinski are always friendly, sweet and kind to my dogs and all the others. I have watched the webcam often- even when my dogs are not there and have never seen anything at all that is abusive nor have I seen the neglect the previous reviewer claims. Also, in every conversation I've ever had with Dr.

Z she has always been very nice and professional. Not sure which River Pet that reviewer is speaking of, but it's certainly not the one I have come to know and love. In fact, dr. Zelinski is a great vet, mother, business woman, wife and friend.

She has a big heart and has done a lot of wonderful things for me, her clients, her staff, and the pets. I also want to point out she has a beautiful handicapped rottweiler living in her facility who is so well taken care of!

She and her staff has done amazing things for that dog and if not for her and her loving hard working staff, he would not have survived these past 5 yrs! So whoever wrote that post does not know anything about her or her staff and its very unfortunate that they feel that way.

Whoever wrote this post please contact me personally at river pet resort to discuss your complaint. I will take prompt action to address your concerns.

I would appreciate that you call me rather than anonymously post something on the internet.
