Yesterday was a distressing day at the Extended Stay America hotel in Avon, Ohio. As Tomi and I were heading outside towards the pet area with Odie, Tomi's beloved Jack Russell Chihuahua mix, we found ourselves trying to avoid Tim, a staff member with whom we've had previous issues. Unfortunately, what we were trying to avoid escalated into an incident that requires immediate attention.

Tim followed us down the hallway, and as we reached the door to the pet area, he acted aggressively. He kicked a large rock that was propping the door open with such force that it not only removed the rock but propelled it forward, hitting Odie on the left side. This act of carelessness and aggression was not just directed towards us but inflicted physical harm on Odie, who is part of our family.

These incidents with Tim are not isolated, and his behavior has created an environment of intimidation and fear. A hotel should be a place of rest and safety, not a space where guests and their pets are subject to harm or harassment. This incident reflects a broader pattern of behavior that needs to be addressed promptly.

We call upon Extended Stay America to conduct a thorough investigation into Tim’s behavior at the Avon, Ohio location. It is essential for the safety and well-being of all guests, especially those with pets, that the hotel holds its staff to the highest standards of conduct. Tim's actions should be reviewed, and appropriate measures must be taken to ensure this behavior does not continue.

By signing this petition, you are urging Extended Stay America to take this matter seriously and to prioritize the safety of its guests and their pets. Together, we can ensure that all families have a peaceful and secure experience at their hotels. Please sign and support our call for an investigation into Tim’s conduct at Extended Stay America in Avon, Ohio.
